In all honesty, what percent of fit has actually achieved 1/2/3/4 for 5 reps ?

The Press: 135x5
Bench 185x5
Squat 335x5
Diddly 405x5

I think it's worth discussing the fact that a lot of people on this board seem to forget that not everyone comes into lifting with the same base fitness level. If you were heavily involved in sports while in school then of-fucking-course you can probably achieve 1/2/3/4 in a year or less but not everyone has that athletic base built already. A lot of people are huge, fat, and sedentary and a lot of people are equally sedentary skeltals that have very little existing muscle mass, so the assertion that any man should be able to lift a certain amount after a given time period training is just retarded.

below 25% for sure, probably closer to 10%

1/2/3/4 for 1 rep after 2 years

ohp and bench are extremely off, by the mark of 40kg on the press you should be close to 80kg bench press

1 for 8
2 for 5
3 for 1
4 for 5

But due to rotating injuries, could never do all at the same time. Torn hammy right now, working my way up from bodyweight squats. 2019 goal is to hit 5x at all, within the same week

Wtf I haven't even lifted for a year and I have better stats

1 for 8
2 for 13
3 for 17
4 for 15

>ohp 75kg
>bench 90kg
>squat 140kg
>deadlift 195kg

my maxes after just over a year lifting.

Gawdamn, how much do you hate OHP?

1/2/x/4 for 5 reps here. My squat is shit but I do it at least.

I can and have been able to for probably 6 months. I've been lifting for 2 years. 6' 180lbs

it took me two years to reach 2 plate bench which is slow, it can be done in a year if you do things properly

I've probably been lifting since February maybe

OHP: 0.6pl8 5x5
Bench: 1pl8 5x5
Squat: 1pl8 5x5
Diddly: 1.75 5x5 or 2pl8 1RM

Last week by chance the bar sat lower on my shoulders and I completed my sets a lot more comfortably so I could potentially move up this week. I think my bench is fucked because I haven't been dumbell pressing so I have zero development in the middle of my chest.

Pretty dogshit for Jow Forums standards but w/e

>75 Kg OHP
>90 Kg Bench

you either do cheat reps on OHP with leg drive or you don't count the bar on bench...

yeah work on your squat so you get symmetrical

That is honestly the concern for me. I have some pretty fucking huge legs from a lifetime of childhood obesity and being fat as a teen/young adult but i have little to no glute development. Could that be why my squat is stalling in comparison to my other main lifts?

I did in my younger days but now that I’m a boomer powerlifting seems retarded and like a good way to get hurt. I’d rather be moderately strong on lifts I enjoy and do more reps and look good than be a bulky fat power lifter.

OHP 135x2
Bench 185x3 kek
Squat 315x3
Diddle 325x5

on/off casual lifting for years, serious lifting for 6 months. Could go higher on deads if I used mixed grip.

I ohp seated

I've achieved 3/4. Im close to 1\2. I failed 1pl8 press twice and lowered my weight back to 50 to work at it again.

I'm at 87.5 bench.

This is after a year of lifting properly. I had lifted on and off for a fe wears before that though

125
255
205
300
I’m not strong yet
8 weeks of serious lifting, but i fucked around doing PPL during high school

Nigger I reached Bench 4x10 70 Kilos after 6 Months doing Push Pull

Actually thinking about it, I failed 3x5 ohp 1pl8 so yeah I can do it for five reps. So just bench to go. I don't even look good. My diet is all over the place.

145lb x 5 on OHP
240lb x 5 on bench
Squat is pathetic
300lb x 5 on deadlift

So I've got two of them pretty comfortably, and two aren't even close. 11 months of lifting.

Aren't the proportions different than what symmetric strength states?

shit mobility probably

for 5 reps those are all warmups to me desu senpai

Mfw work out everyday and can barely do lmao1pl8 ohp for 1 rep, sucks being shoulderlet

I was stuck there for a while man, now I'm getting close to the 80kg mark and I've only been lifting for a bit under a year.

What's your current program? You should try Greg Nuckols' 3x bench int medium, but for OHP instead.

what routine are you doing now. Would like to add it to my list of routines to avoid

You do not have a three plate OHP

SS + GOMAD

fuck

Been doing 5x5 and 3x8-12 once a week, 3 sets of Push press twice a week and some accesories.
Def gonna give the program a go, thanks user

coming up on one year soon

175/385x1
140/315x1
110/240x1
60/135x because fuck wasting a session on maxing out an assistance lift

1/2/3/4 as i definitely have 180 in me, what do i win

you don't need db benches to do shit for your bench at 1plate just bench more

Yes,
5’10”
186lbs

Not a bad idea, how old are you?

22 year old dyel

125x1 OHP
205x2 Bench
245x3 Squat
315x2 Diddly

Been lifting for about 7 months. Hoping I'll have at least the presses to 1/2 by the end of the year, and the others by 1.5 years

I achieved 1/2/3/4 within a year of starting and I had absolutely zero baseline. Wasn't exercising or jogging or doing any sports or anything. You'll probably just say I'm lying, but whatever.

>search youtube for 1/2/3/4
why do they all look like normal body-types? Is being cut a meme?

Because 1234 isn't the end goal. It's the point where you can first say "yes, I lift".

But straight benching won't fill in the absolutely fucking cavernous gap I have in the middle or will it?

thats not how muscles work

There's no way you have a 3pl8 OHP but 0.75pl8 diddly

You aren't going to be able to dl significant weight with a normal grip. Use hook grip, alternating grip, chalk, straps, anything.

My OHP is 60kg but my bench is 80kg...

He was clearing listing in the order of DL/SQ/BP/OHP, you sperglords

Are dumbell shoulder presses easier than barbell ones ?
Because i’ve been lifting for a year, and my lifts are pretty much average, but i can lift 30 Kgs per arm on dumbell shoulder press, my delts still look like shit tho

bench 52.5kg for 5
OHP 25kg for 5
Squat 50kg for 5
Deadlift 60kg for 1

Currently this is where I’m at
1pl8 for 5 reps
2pl8 for 1 rep
3pl8 for 4 reps
4pl8 for ??? Reps (let’s just say 1 to be safe)

This is after about 2 years of lifting using Arnold’s encyclopedia of a modern bodybuilder as reference.

Post body.

Advice? My bench is severely lacking. My chest day is

5x5:
Bench
Incline
Decline
Skulls
Cable push downs

You must be built like a dorito

2pl8 bench in 2 years? I got that like 5 months into lifting. What's up with your presses?

>all those meme exercises
>"chest day"
That's why you fucked up. Quit the retarded brosplit and do a full body program. Cut all the redundant crap and just focus on alternating bench and OHP between workouts. Don't even bother with any of that other crap until your main lifts are up to snuff.

Same. I was so bad at shoulders for literally years and then one day they just started growing and within 2 weeks I went from 95 pounds for reps to 1pl8 for reps

Let me know how it goes once you've given finished a cycle (a month). I'll probably be lurking somewhere on CBT or PLG.

ohp 1plx12
bp 2plx12
Don't do squats
Don't do deadlifts

Pretty much, my waist is also like only 30" at 6'3". I need to get some beefy quads so I have that crazy physique.

What are the best quad exercises for size? And how often should I hit them?

Well I did some gay CrossFit for 2 years before I started brosplitting... when I started lifting for real my max on squat was 225 and my max on bench was 95 lmao.

I’ve also just turned 18, and because of when I started lifting I had no upper body foundation at all when I started lifting and my chest/shoulders/arms are severely lacking compared to my ridiculous legs.

They sure are if your sitting down on a fully inclined bench. I do them after ohp

what do you think user
which exercise could be used for quads
hmmm really activates my almonds

Record 1rm
Ohp: 145 lbs
Bench: 250 lbs
Squat: 390 lbs
Deadlift: 515 lbs
Lifting inconsistently for almost 3 years

Well I’m not really the best person to ask, but if you’re trying to build your leg mass just remember that hamstrings are equally as important as quads. The thickness of your leg is the sum of hamstring and quad muscles so if you really wanna look big work on hitting both those muscles.

For my leg day I do:
5x5 Back Squat
5x5 Leg Sled
5x5 Hamstring Deadlift
5x5 Leg Curl

And I also used to do calves, but due to an Achilles’ tendon microtear I really can’t anymore which is horrible.

Again, not the best person to ask. Back squat and leg sled are like essentially the same thing so I’m sure my leg day could be improved it’s just become methodical at this point and I don’t wanna mess around with it.

Maybe ask someone like If you don’t do brosplitting. I’ve never researched any other program but people seem to be passionately against brosplitting on this board so idk.

Pretty good representation of this board

Shit genetics, no work ethic, lazy

>alternate lifts between workouts
What do you do for your, “Workouts.”? Because for me things like bench and OHP comprise most of my workouts (IE Chest day, shoulder day.)

Sorry if this is retarded I just have never looked into any other program than splitting.

I've been benching 135 for years, pretty sure I have low test and have hit my natty limit

Feels bad man

I also have depression, anxiety, low hair growth, etc

I really should get blood work done

eat more you pussy
track your calories and come back with numbers, then i'll believe you

No prob. The basis of any normal full-body program is to have every day doing a main compound lift focusing on legs, pushing, and pulling. So for example, Squat/OHP/Deadlift or Frontsquat/Bench/Weighted-pullups. And then for frequency you'd be doing every 2 days, or 3x a week. Starting Strength is a very common beginner full-body routine.

What are your stats and how long have you been lifting? Just to get an idea of where you are.

You may be onto something

Every time I get consistent in the gym I am in a deficit because I'm stuck at 22% bodyfat

I have a decent amount of muscle though

That's another symptom of low test, impossible to lose fat

>bench: 70kg for 1
jesus that's terrible what did you start on?

it's not impossible jesus christ user
stay consistent and _either_ bulk or cut just pick one
if you want to cut then obviously your lifts aren't going to go up much (or even at all) during the process

Well, I know squats,lunges and Bulgarians would probably be best. My squat sucks, I wouldn't mind working on it though. Bulgarians and lunges are pure AIDS though.

Missed opportunity with not having Elliot Rodger shooped in that pic.

Lmao see I would do PPL but I would do it as a split. Like Chest/Tri, Back/Bi, Legs, and then I’d just add in shoulders.

Height: 5’9
Weight: 184.5
Body Fat: 10%
Chest: 42.5 in
Shoulders: 51 in
Waist: 36 in (around love handles)
Quad: 24.5 in
Calf: 15 in (Achilles tendon injury)
Bicep: 15in

Maxes:
Basically just 1/2/3/4

I know I look like DYEL lmao

5'9, l72lbs, lifting 6 days a week for 10 months or so
following are 1RM
>100lbs
>180lbs

Here’s last time I tested my body fat. I don’t know why I look so fat if my percentage is 10% but what can ya do :/

Attached: 69177685-BBA6-4EF7-89C5-3437FB574108.jpg (4032x3024, 2.16M)

Uh, I just meant lifting stats, not body measurements, but whatever. You also certainly aren't 10% bodyfat. And are you "basically 1/2/3/4" for 1RMs or 5RMs or what?

Anyway, I'd recommend trying out a fullbody intermediate program like Madcow or Texas Method

>10%
Ahahahaha oh nononono

What method was used here? Unless you did the water submersion test, your results are liable to be EXTREMELY off. We're talking about margins of error of like +/-10%. Even for things like using a dexascan

>OHP 60kg x 1
>BP 90kg x 2
>Squat 110 x 5 (lel)
>Diddylift 160 x 2
1.5 year of lifting properly, 6 months injury prior and 6 months of eating properly for the first time

I’m just going off the test man. According to it my body has an extremely low amount of fat in arms/legs but a shit ton in my, “Trunk,” whatever that means.

These are my maxesTrips of truth. I used an inbody scan thing. It’s supposed to do something with electrodes. How can I get an accurate measure of my body fat without spending a shit ton of money?

Trunk is your torso ya goon.

Well I knew it included my stomach from looking in the mirror lmao but idk if it counts chest and back and whatever.

Havent hit 2
