There's a novice/intermediate option in the experience level drop down box.
Ryan Hall
i'm way stronger with a close grip (like almost touching smooth) than max legal, my chest is relatively more developed than my triceps and i have really long arms
so idk about that maybe my technique just sucks for max legal
Brandon Powell
Whichever one you train primarily will be strongest.
I've been a long term close grip bincher, but admittedly I know my truly strongest grip is about mid-range, double clavicle length and over time my grip has opened up a little just progressively.
Only people who are truly strongest close grip are those who don't train it any other way
Christian Green
see that's the thing, i trained exclusively max legal for a year and a half or so and then my cg was still immediately stronger with no practice
Nicholas Brown
Hello my strong strong friends.
Cameron Cruz
gallon of milk a day? sir, do you understand what lactose intolerance means?
I used to be that way. In my case, the problem was lack of tightness when benching max legal.
Liam Cooper
Yer prolly not a big enough lad for max, try double clavicle length grip. It requires a measuring tape lol.
Christopher Price
i'm 6'4"
Adrian Robinson
Yeah, you're a bit on the smaller side.
Caleb Adams
Yeah I literally just did ramping sets when I first started lifting. I would have a 4x8, 5x5, and 8x3 day. Once linear progression started slowing down I got into nuckols and juggernaut.
John Clark
I'm the same. I find it much easier to use max grip for reps(>5) and close grip for singles, doubles, and triples. It's probably due to instability (i.e. weak back and core) in my case though.
Lucas Wood
measured
that would put me at ~92cm for grip
Carter Johnson
>tfw closing in on greenman 2 months of strength training but I’m starting to stall on deads. Might have to stop squatting and deadlifting same day. Going to try some heavy singles this weekend to gauge where I’m at.
i couldn't bench like that anyway, my shoulders would implode
Luis Long
You're measuring wrong dipshit.
Sebastian Watson
Pretty sure it's supposed to be 1.5x clavicle length, not 2x, too
Julian Campbell
Bigger guys tend to go narrower, at least enhanced ones do. Wenning, strickland, hoornstra spring to mind. Even Kirill is narrow for his build, hes so fucking wide that hes on the rings but its not wide wide grip wise.
Matthew Collins
1.5 seems too small desu
i'm not, i'm that much bigger than you
Wyatt Fisher
no, its from the boney part of each clavicle then double that.
Jaxson Morales
That's what I'm talking about when I refer to double clavicle.
Most people who say they're doing a close grip are usually doing closer to a standard grip than they really think anyway.
I'm more than well aware of the points you made, I watch this sport too pebble head
Oliver Thompson
>curling your wrists at the end of the bench Nice
Christopher Morgan
Jen Thompson and >T-nation both say 1.5x biacromial width
Found out that my right elbow dropped a bit on the JM Press. This only happens if I try to force the ROM though. Basically fixed with an extra set where I just did what Blakely himself tells you to do.
Camden Johnson
>bigman will never be this good only 1 week playing lul
>Bringing my hopes up to think it is panzer That is cruel
Samuel Garcia
this desu
hope panzer isn't dead
Gabriel Rogers
He isn't, I've talked with him recently. He's not injured either.
Carson Robinson
Sup guys, I posted a squat single about a month ago and was told by a few that I was high. Been trying to work on slowly sinking it since then, here's a hard-ish last set of the day from today. Can y'all tell me if depth is acceptable, and just anything else you'd recommend working on.
Depth is borderline/maybe a tad high. Focus on sitting between your legs and breaking with your knees and hips at the same time. You're sitting into your knees a lot because you initiate with your hips.
Nope, he's still lifting
Joseph Taylor
Also really focus on shoving your knees out to the side, that should get you the last little bit for depth
Owen Kelly
Is he benching 3pl8 yet?
Aaron Martin
No idea, extremely unlikely though. I'll ask him next time we talk.
Bentley Green
he's an oly memer take a wild guess
Kayden Ward
I remember his max being around 120kg, not sure. Complete GDE t b h
Blake Perez
I want to hatefuck her face in a nonsexual context
Cameron Martinez
>i guess it's just lack of pump because i started doing lateral raises for shit and giggles and my shoulders blew up Are you saying that the pump you got from lateral raises got them bigger? Is is not the added volume that induced hypertrophy?
Elijah Brown
>he's still lifting Any progress?
Aiden Parker
No idea, didn't talk about it.
Joshua Gonzalez
I'm going to add "no incel sexual abuse fantasies" to the OP.
Jaxon Roberts
Yikes. That means hes weak AF, as usual.
Angel Carter
Anyone know any good free PC games that don't require steam or origin?
Also does anyone wanna play fortnite rn?
Michael Rivera
I'm sure gog has some free stuff
Cooper Lewis
Thanks never heard of gog b4
Adrian Smith
It's all drm free iirc
Anthony Rivera
went to a job fair representing engineers for my work today. Pretty good but I can't help but feel that I have missed out on all the cute girls. Like I was just talking and flirting to them all day and it was quite nice.
Still lifting instead of the bar tonight. Do you anons regret this or what keeps you sane?
Carson Taylor
Lmao. This is every day for me desu. Life is pain.
Ryan Smith
Really need to figure out self wrapping. Feels like I'm missing out in a couple of revs. Anyone have any tips? youtu.be/TbxH5UTxaHE
Michael Thompson
Try breaking at the hips as well to initiate the squat.
Zachary Collins
wtf is wrong with your glutes?
Camden Hall
They're being squished to death by the suit
Josiah Price
just pirate the games fag
Asher Hall
>pirate the games fag You have to be 18 to post here.
Grayson Rivera
>I'm not an incel, haven't been since age 16 >I explicitly said nonsexual context >I literally just want her to choke on my dick as a show of dominance and to get her to shut up where is your god now
Shit, you guys just gave me the opposite advice lmao.
Caleb Lopez
no okay sean youre not truly in pain as you can still talk to him in the memehouse
William Murphy
why the fuck would anyone want that whiny little cunt back?
Luke Reyes
I think he meant knees, because you're already breaking at the hips, so you can't do them as well
He's not in the treehouse, I have him added on Snapchat. He doesn't talk to anyone on discord anymore and he doesn't have a fb afaik.
Oliver Ross
>you will never get sexy snaps from panzy :(
Justin Ortiz
I do not want him to come back t. user that dislikes his cringy posting personality
Joseph Wilson
i want him back so i can buy the fuck out of him and make him leave again
Levi Richardson
>buy bully phoneposting strikes again
Carter Diaz
>see lots of movies where people get tortured and shit >think to myself yeah I could withstand that pain I'd make a bad ass special forces agent >few hours ago >go to jump and lay on the couch >slam my foot against the wooden coffee table >literally slam the hard top of my foot against the hard wood at bone shattering speeds >most pain I've been in ever in my whole life ever and I've split my head open when jumping down the stairs lol >roll around in agony and realise I'm bad with pain My foot hurts ;_;
Kayden Perez

Nathaniel Watson
ate an 18" pepperoni pizza last night bois ready to fukkin PR remember to eat big!
Christian Campbell
Asda do the best store bought pizza I've ever had when dipped in the yoghurt herb sauce they do too
Legit had it three days in a row once cause it tested so fucking good.
Its the BBQ base, chicken and ham one they do, holy fuck do they melt so much meat onto that thing. Its fucking orgasmic for a store bought pizza.
Benjamin Walker
for a first pair or shoes, do you recommend the powerlifts? I have shit mobility and my program has front squats, the raised heel will help me a lot, but there are cheap shoes with foam instead of hard plastic i squat 2plates so idk
