Just need your guys thoughts on this. I've been lifting for a little over a year at this point. 18/6'3"/87kg
Have a 140kg TNG bench and 82.5kg The Press. Do yous think I could get a 150kg comp bench and a 100kg press without gaining much weight in the next year?
I'm ashamed to say that until recently this was my ohp form. super high ohp tho
Lucas Ward
I was at a restaurant the other day and the waiter asked me if I wanted a box for the leftovers. I told him I didn't but I was willing to wrestle for them. On the way home I passed some mountains and I thought to myself, they're more than just funny. They're hill areas.

Linear algebra exam tomorrow, time to go lift boys.
Hudson Garcia
Relational algebra is where the women at tho
Leo Johnson
Nice pec insertions miss
Jose Turner
Programming fags out
Angel Morgan
Y-you too
Austin Mitchell
you're a good little slut
Nathan Jenkins
Second week of Hepburn and I'm already bored to death. At least for the lower days, the upper day is fun. I'll probably switch it up a bit and introduce new movements aside from squat and deadlifts, like sissy leg press or front squats and romanian deadlifts for my volume work.
Xavier Smith
Thinking of running it for squat & deadlift, or just deadlift. What's so bad about the lower days? Are you doing hepburn a, b, or c?
Michael Roberts
He has adhd
Brayden Reed
8x2-3 squats followed by 8x2-3 deadlifts. It's just fucking boring. At least I superset my bench with pullups or high pulls and have some fun during the upper days, but you can't superset squats and deadlifts. I also generally like to get hyped up before squats so it's a major turnoff to have to do multiple sets of medium-heavy weight with somewhat low rest where hyping up makes 0 sense, instead of just 1 all out set and some easy back off work.
Xavier Rivera
just use very short breaks?
Jordan Brooks
I do like 2 minutes. It's at 80%, it's almost the lowest I can go to recover from it and not fuck up my form.
Blake Long
Lol all this time i thought ph3 is the same as hepburn.
I did it. I gave in to "bench fixes". Smolov jr and sq/dl @6-7 for the next 3 weeks. Hopefully I'll survive without injury and break 2 reds before my first meet.
I'm a consultant I don't program anything what are you retarded
Lucas Flores
Do 5th set protocol for lower lifts instead.
Lower A Squat 5x2@80% (last set amrap) Deadlift Accessory 3x5-8 Add 5lbs per session for 5 sessions, then deload, add 5lbs to training max, reset percentages.
Lower B Deadlift 5x3@70-75% (no amrap) Block Pull 3x3-5 Squat Accessory 3x5-10. Same progression.
You can swap squat and DL protocol, but generally dont push both for amraps at the same time.
Samuel Diaz
Don't hurt me pls. Most programming fags I know do it, so I made that assumption.
Ayden Edwards
Please blog your experience as a lesson to others, thanks.
Colton Martin
Do you talk to a lot of programmers who work on query optimizers or something?
Wyatt Flores
F
Luke Rivera
It's one of the in one of the modules for 4th year computer science students here at my college, not sure if it's a core modules though.
Grayson Clark
I want to die
Christian Jackson
The patrician 5thSet protocol is the 75% 5x3+ one for every lift.
Ryder Brooks
This probably isnt a good place to talk about that. Have you considered Jow Forums or r/suicidewatch?
Liam Wood
COLLEGE check out this fuckin barney
Grayson Clark
107.5kg x9 bench on Sunday, easy stuff boys. Then tried OHP for the first time in a few months today, barely grind out 70kg lmao. I was able to do 70jg 10x3 pretty comfortably before.
Jason Wilson
i bet this is the dude with a sub 100kg bench lmao
Jacob Butler
It's the guy that posts that he got 80kg for 2,2,2,3,3,2,1,3,2,2 and asks why he isn't progressing.
Nolan Allen
If you recover like a monster, maybe
Jose Ward
>my gp had a go at me for roids when I was a dyel with 1 or 2 years of lifting behind me, because of the stretch marks between anterior delt and pec. The exact same thing happened to me. Cocksucker just couldn't believe it. >user don't worry I won't tell the police if """your friend""" *wink wink* takes steroids, but I'm your doctor you have to tell me
Ian Russell
But roids are legal wtf?
Juan Miller
Not for yanks, having enough vials for a cycle or 2 and a few orals is enough drugs to get you arrested for drug dealing charges. All because baseball was too fun when people were hitting home runs.
Carter Ramirez
Are those dildos?
Gabriel Peterson
Disposing some nasty Norman khan it stinks so bad making a whole bunch of noises my insides fucking hurt some of it is Norman khannareaha too
Levi Ward
Land of freedom huh?
Caleb Sanchez
boomer at my gym: nah I don't squat (yet), still rehabbing after The Injuryâ„¢ (dramatic orchestra playing in the distance) also same boomer at my gym: proceeds to do 800lbs leg press knees to chest and low back lightyears off the pad, followed by 90lbs leg extensions done so vigorously his toes almost hit his forehead
Jaxson Carter
What. I had stretch marks from gaining like 8kg BW with a year of lifting. Mainly on my shoulders and biceps since they blew up. People in my secondary school used to joke about me taking roids just because I could bench 120kg lmao.
Ryan White
Am I banned?
Matthew Nguyen
Hopefully
Thomas Russell
What did you do?
Gabriel Gutierrez
Apparently not. I'm using my Jow Forums pass too and they can correlate your ban when you use it.
Based and spinepilled Sean forever btfo
Austin Gomez
Isley.
How do I engage my upper back and lats in conventional deadlift.
Wyatt Hill
Isley, I thought you were gone. It was horrible.
Grayson Mitchell
Retract your spatula
Jordan Reyes
Isley, how do I actually deadlift like a human being not weak shit
Samuel Torres
but I have an issue. my wide grip is better feel than my conventional
Aaron Martinez
>super low standing bench press FTFY
Camden King
still better than a contortionist bench press
Brody Flores
Allows back to be tighter
Asher Miller
Yes. How do I do that with conventional narrow grip. This was snatch grip width. And it felt lighter than same weight with narrow grip. I'm stunned at my retardation but here I stand.
Elijah Diaz
115kg bench but ok. 7 months into powerlifting
Nathan Murphy
ss user you puzzle me greatly
Xavier Lopez
I dont know im also deadlift retard
Joshua Moore
I puzzle myself too.
Sebastian Jones
>counts his lifting age in when he started powerhobbying rather than going to the gym lol
Matthew Carter
fug:D
Aaron White
oh my you'll get that 3pl8 bench in a month, for sure
Gavin Lee
Wow good lord more Norman khannearea is splurting out of my butthole wow wew
Camden Gonzalez
Squats are always same, ohp same, but bench and deadlifting are like fucking gambling lottery iss either great day or fucking trash time
Andrew Stewart
This lmao. I could just as easily say I got my 3pl8 bench with 6 months powerlifting.
Caleb Adams
I'd might wait next 3 years for my first meet to officialy start powerlifting than I can mogg pepole with 270kg squat in 1 month
Jeremiah Young
Are you me? One day i bench 115x5 and then other day i feel like dying under 110
Hudson Thompson
Best shaker cup for a real muscly guy?
Eli Nelson
even better squat never hurts anything, bench never hurts anything, deadlifting can hurt my elbows same as ltes go figure
What do you guys even use shakers for? Do you sip protein shakes through the day like instagram thots? I struggle to get less than 200g of protein on normal diet cant imagine what it would be like if I also had shakes.
Daniel Allen
Ah yes, I forgot your max was 100kg. Barely higher than your OHP.
Dylan Butler
I also have comic arch to it
To look cool duhh
Xavier Brown
You could unironically probably make a pretty good arch if you worked on it, given that you have a very long torso and little gimpy legs.
Jace Barnes
Idk you're a mystery to physiology and psychology
Nothing can vanquish me
Cue yourself better. But like, don't overthink it, I've never thought about the upper back. For the lats, I just pull my shoulders down as hard as I can before I start the pull.
I don't have any good videos of me doing it (I checked) since it's quite a sublte, well-drilled motion now.
Adam Hill
nah, when i meme arched and had wide grip no progress than I meet good benches and they said to me im fridge mode with no barrell chest and very long torso so I need to CGBP in order to bring up my bench gbro was spot on with that in competition bench my fingers dont touch rings
Matthew Jones
>in competition bench my fingers dont touch rings Good meme, every body laugh
Anthony Diaz
who cares if my go to and only powerlifting lift is squat
Dominic Nguyen
I bench thumb-joint (whatever you call the upper part of your thumb :DDD) away from the smooth part.
Adrian Robinson
I'm the same height as you, and bench with fingers about 3 finger widths in from the rings. It just feels a lot easier to get it off the chest when you bench with a closer grip. Also, I'm a major chestlet and love training triceps.
Jacob Green
yup, guys with no chest like us have to relay on tricep strength rather than all chest like for eg. Bobby were opposites
Christopher Evans
ID rather have chest strength then again it would mean different physiology (better one for bench)
Colton Smith
Bobby is lighter than Yakob and 30% bf while Yakob is above 100kg and looks like a fucking ottermode now go figure
Aaron Thompson
Different guy but my chest is pretty fucking big and i still have to bench close grip with my tris mostly. Must have something to do with insertions, my wide grip is about 20kg lower than close grip.
Brody Nguyen
Meanwhile Isley had a far better chest than I ever will with a fucking 110kg TNG bench.
Colton Richardson
So just how close do my fellow cgfags have their grip? I have them barely outside of the smooth part of the bar, which in my case means right around shoulder width.
Julian Brooks
>bobby is lighter Didnt know yakob bulked to 120kgs, and bobby is like 35%bf at least.
