are there any other actual women here on the Jow Forums fit board? whenever i come here i feel like i'm surrounded by high school boys.
also for all the girls and 15 y/o boys pretending to be girls; how much do you bench and ohp? my upper body lifts are awful and i don't know why.
>are there any other actual women here on the Jow Forums fit board?
Pfft no, go to r/fitness and post feet to prove you have a vagina
There are many girls, and i don’t lift, it’s winter my gym membership expired. I can’t leave bed during winter
I’m trying to work on my diet
I’m miserable and loney, can’t make friends coz I dislike most girls I meet, how are you?
uh...
what?
Post arms or body
Nothing sexual, I just want to make sure you’re a real female(girl)
Sup, post goal body.
>Sl*v
Fuck, femanons really are bottom tier
Dont worry, that is extremely common today, especially between zoomers
How do you make new bros fit?
Guy here and I find it extremely easy and natural to meet new girls
But it sounds too gay to me to be in any way proactive to look for new bros.
10/10 would impregnate
what are those hieroglyphs
Tits or GTFO
Listen here little baby. You're gonna get a lot of hurtful and degrading comments, but that ain't what I'm about. Let me just say, you are perfect the way you are. You hear me sugar? PERFECT. Don't ever change. You deserve anything and everything you want. Stay safe for me, baby girl. >mfw thinking of you hurting

You're a woman and you wonder why your upper body lifts are shit?
For a woman.
LOOOOOOONDOOOOON
Don't do upper body lifts if you are a woman
220x2 BP
120x3 ohp
???
nice gyno fag
What do you mean you don't know your upper body lifts suck? 1) You're a girl so you're basically starting out at the bottom inn terms of strength. 2) Lift for 3-5 years and then come back and talk numbers.
I have one small asian friend who is actually a beast starting out in the gym and her bench is still 135 and her DL is 225. She did sports growing up so I guess that helped her.
I’m a 25 year old man shut the fuck up bitch
and you're a woman? how long have you been lifting?
it took me forever just to work up to the bar for ohp. my bench max is 80lbs...
>But it sounds too gay to me to be in any way proactive to look for new bros.
Have you considered working?
Women's arms can't progress as fast as men's. Your legs can though.
80lbs isnt bad. My gf is really petite and shes probably a year or two from benching 80lbs. She hates doing upper body and uses 10lb dumbbells to bench. She gets frustrated too but I just remind her that shes 100lbs soaking wet so lifting heavy isnt going to come quickly. I remember starting out I was only able to bench 125 and a few years later I was doing 315 for sets of 5. Always try to look better and get stronger but I honestly dont remember being happy about lifting heavier on the journey to 315. I think my biggest achievement was when I hit 135lbs on bench and that was because I was finally happy to have a wagon wheel on each side. After that the gains just came gradually. Never went past 315 because decided I didnt want to be any stronger; just wanted to lift so I wasnt fat like when I first started.
>can’t leave bed during winter
What? Are you really obese or something?
Actual girl(female) here. Please be brutally honest about my stats
Bench: 50-60lb I think. I don't do upper body
DL: 170lb
Squat: 130lb
oh yea these are all 5rm i forgot oops
Post thighs for proof, not bad though
Fuck you, read the sticky attention whore.
Eat bread femanons
It contains high amount of carbs fuel to the muscle
You'll be burning these for energy
And eat slightly more protein than usual like 10-20grams more
>can't leave bed
>working on diet
>dislike most girls
Cuz you're a jealous pig
Hello m'lady
Since you have wondered the land of the cursed i might guide you outside from this place but it will cost you my dear im afraid. Dont care about what others say i will always support you and be with you
Yours faithfully
Lord Maximus
Pic related, sort of my goal body. Legs and flexibility.
I'm 5"3 - 125
BP: 80lbs 6x3
OHP: the struggle is real. 55~ 8x3
I really struggle with upper body as well. I think part of it is because I don't have a spotter to really help me push myself, though. I'm also trying out different accessory exercises to help boost my upper body lifts. Have you found anything that helps??
Lower body
Squat: 135lbs 8x3 -- doing box squats as an accessory seem to have really helped me start getting my numbers up
DL: 155lbs 10x3
Post your stats.
how long have you been lifting?
you should do upper body too. i regret not training it as much as my lower body, and now i'm trying to play catch up there. making upper body gains won't hinder your lower body progress any, so why not do both??
Any of you femanons natSoc?
London
okay
i'm 5'6" and 140lbs, been training now for 62 weeks (keep logs lol). i haven't tested my 1RMs for upper body, so those are 5RMs.
5RMs
bench: 77.5lbs (bought microplates lol)
ohp: 55lbs
1RMs
squat: 170lbs
deadlift: 285lbs
i think if you know your sticking point for the upper body lifts you can add in some variation to hit that point harder. like floor press if your sticking point is higher up. i did this for deadlift; was hard for me to lockout so i did banded deads (bands on barbell, not legs) to work lockout more.
pic related, goal cat :P
You need more volume. CWS has his female lifters do twice as much back volume to account for the smaller muscle sizes, lower starting points, and quicker recovery of female lifters.
I really recommend Fuerza published by JTS if you're looking for a good female-specific lifting book.
BRISBANE
ooh, now it makes sense
so maybe its just natural to know tons of girls but having only few bros, okay I didnt know what i expected
I'm the opposite, I like squats the least, diddlies are ok. I'm still weak after first year but whatever, I'll keep being consistent and reaching my goals will be a matter of time
>whenever i come here i feel like i'm surrounded by high school boys.
That's because you are. This place is lousy with underage b& LARPing as >=18.
>5RM
You know there are calculators and tables that you can use to determine your (theoretical) 1RM from up to 10 reps, right?
I make guy friends all the time simply by spotting/form checking or asking to be spotted/form checked.
I don't get it man how can you possibly love someone if they can't even bench 2pl8
get out of my board dumb roastie
>If you know your sticking point you can add in some variation to hit that point harder.
Makes sense. That's probably why box squats have helped me. I will try this. And hopefully get over my fear of failing reps so I can go down to lower volume.
Pic related, current cat.
Ez bruh I stopped porn two years ago when we started dating because shes exactly my type. She's good at video games and is an actual petite 3.14qt gf. Now she started lifting with me.... This is a wife. That and aside from her traditional family values. She didnt venture off into being a hoe. I got lucky bro
Fuck this the last time this young dude (maybe 17 or 18) asked me if he could work in when I was doing incline bench I ended up having to deadlift that shit each time.
Speaking of female fitness, I have a female friend who was considering joining me in the gym and was asking me for advice. Wants to take care of herself and improve physical strength for EMT work.
What program should a woman run? I just do powerlifting stuff and a few accessories, I don't think mine would offer her much except maybe having me where to show her correct form
The most I have ever ohped was 95lb *5. No 1rm since I wasn't stupid enough to max out upper body lifts as a woman who wasn't training for powerlifting, most of my lifting was in the *8-12 range. Bench never went past 135*5. I was 135lb at the time To 5'7 for reference.
>my upper body lifts are awful and i don't know why.
its because you're a woman, obviously. typical of a woman to be too stupid to realize something so simple
Might depend on the gym I guess, I go to a college gym that has quite a few serious lifters so I don't have to spot people doing dumb shit
>You know there are calculators and tables that you can use to determine your (theoretical) 1RM from up to 10 reps, right?
i would rather share what i've actually achieved than some hypothetical numbers from a mathematical formula.
awwww kitty! xD
fear of failing reps is i think why my squat is so low compared to my deadlift lol. only now am i truly running a linear progression program.. before with squats i'd be like "omg my form felt off that rep, i better quit now..."
now i'm hitting 5RM PRs for the first time in forever, and next time i test one rep maxes i bet i'll be close to 200lbs with squat.
if her goal is strength, then i'd suggest any basic LP program. really everyone should do that. once you've built up your base level of strength, then you can go off into bodybuilding or w/e you wanna do
All femanons are required by 4channel law to be my girlfriend. NON NEGOTIABLE. Hand over your pussies whores.
That depends on how long you've been lifting. For less than 3-6 months that's bad but not terrible. Again it depends on what your starting point was.
For reference i've been lifting consistently for about a year and a half. I include the bar because i'm a little bitch
Bench-167lbs×5×3
OHP- 120lbs×5×3
DL-320lbs×5×2
Squat- 197lbs×5×3
Also you should do some upper body and back if youre going to lift.
holy fuck this copypasta gets me every time
nah, I don't want shoulders like her.
>next time I test one rep maxes I bet I'll be close to 200lbs with squat.
You're so strong! I hope I can work myself up to those numbers one day. Did/do you have a personal trainer or lifting buddy?
I struggle with my form since I always lift alone. My deadlift is good from what I can tell from videos, but I'm pretty sure I have a butt wink at the bottom of my squat and my knees track a little too much over my toes (I go pretty far down being short and flexible). What do you do to make sure you are learning/maintaining strict form as you get into those higher numbers?
>females
>on the internet
No one fucking CARES. Just read the sticky and lift like everyone else you dumb fucks
Working your entire body can become important for keeping safe when you get into heavier compound exercises. Don't be a dumb thot.
Though you're more than likely b8.
I really really REALLY wish that was me.
>tfw will never be able to ha e this body because my ribcage is massive and my hips are square
Why do i even live
It it makes you feel better, my mom has that body and passed me her frame. Surely you won't be as attractive as all the pear shaped thots out there, but at least your sons will be Chads
Unless you are one of those weird child free women.
i don't think "she" will be giving birth any time soon, user
i finally found a lifting buddy, but after our first time lifting together he and his brother were asking me for lifting advice lol.
my lifts aren't even that impressive, for lifting over a year now. best advice i can give is to post form videos. not here where all the creepy kids will masturbate to you, but like reddit, starting strength forums, or barbell medicine forums.
>tfw dont want kids
In throwing myself off a bridge
Don't tell me you're white too. Any white woman who does not have or plans go have white children is human garbage.
I wish I had a gf so I could experience this desu
you just know a dude wrote that
current new routine, some user on here helped me progress form my first one which was mostly 3 sets and really low weight. focusing on form and mobility took forever.
goal is to get thick tight solid but ripped af. I have a tendency to get fridge mode so I don't do 5x5. I wouldn't bother going to the gym for 3x5, that's boring af. I need to leave exhausted after day A.
7 months lifting
went from 62kg to 67kg in bodyweight
172cm / 5'8
no idea what my 1RM are but these are my working weights I use on this routine
squat 50kg
DL 55kg
OHP 20kg (the bar.. on a lucky day I get 22.5kg in the 4th set)
I bench two 7kg dumbells, not interested in getting bigger arms. delts blew up nicely but feminine anyhow.
I progress by trying to add 5kg on sq & DL on the fourth set and getting it to 12 reps
>woman not wanting kids
then what the fuck DO you want? a fucking apartment and a chihuahua? i don't get it
You sound very familiar. Do you also have issues controlling your weight?
I don't know user. I shared a bathroom with 2 girls, renting a room in the same house as them. And goddamn were they disgusting. I have no doubt that a female could write all those
Though it could also just be your typical haha brap poster so who knows
the disgusting stuff is only good if you actually like the girl
Not just that, but I've noticed that women especially enjoy putting disgusting details into stories about themselves being disgusting.
A mad would say something like
>tfw bulking
>green apple splatter all over the toilet
>shit fucking broke and my gf woke up from the noises
But notice that the posters went through every single detail from the foot, to the scent, to the way it filled the room. Only a woman would describe that much. The only thing that makes me doubt a woman made it was
>sex and the city
>implying anyone watches that trash.
Would bang, no risk of pregnancy scares
>pregnancy scares him
lol, what are you, a pussy? you know what's really scary? whites becoming a minority in our own country, all elections decided by spics and niggers.
Maybe YOUR country, i'm definitely not murican
go away retards
Fuck off. Whites need to stand up in this country, not back down. A primary example of this is to have as many children as possible.
the US was 90% white 100 years ago
make me, roastie
How many kids do you have user?
>Women can't get accidentally pregnant if they don't want kids
???
100 years from now i'll be DEAD
their bodies have a way of shutting that down
Your arms and back must be so skinny fat and disgusting in comparison to your legs.
>Abortions aren't needed, you simply just have to not want kids and it will automatically abort itself.
Birth control BTFOed.
nice boomer morality
Todd Akin was right
that's honestly more than i've ever seen a girl lift in my 3 years of getting Jow Forums. women are a meme but you're slightly less of a meme
Lifting is for girls who can't control their addiction to disgusting, unhealthy foods.
REAL women do yoga and eat salad
By salad do you mean assholes?
>Squat 4x12@90%
If you’re squatting 90% of your 1RM or even 3RM at 4x12, then that’s not your 1RM/3RM.
most men on here are either NEETs, self-induced autists, live in a third world country or in America with no healthcare and everyone deeply in debt, pursuing useless careers
>preserve your own race, niggers are taking away muh jobs
yeah why tf would I want to breed with this.
not to mention this board is famously full of homos.
how does this matter
if you hit 4x12 relatively easy you up the weight
