This is me after more than 2 years lifting. Needless to say, I have been wasting a lot of time.
Elijah Thomas
Look at this picture again in a year and make sure you've made progress. If that happens year after year, you're all good fren

Fuck blue boy zone
Adrian Gutierrez
Start a beginner program and stick with it. If you're not seeing progress, it's probably because you're a skeleton who's not eating nearly enough.
Logan Robinson
Started training legs late and it left me with a weaker back squat, making my hips still blue ugh.
Ethan Rivera
I was tealman, took a couple months off after graduation, regressed to blueboy. Never felt worse
Kevin Brown
Why does this site not let you put in reps higher then 10? What the fuck? How many BENCH PRESS reps should a person be doing at 1pl8? I've been going for at least 10. I did 19 but couldn't even do 1 two days ago, or today. Have I fucked up my reps?
Angel Foster
You should be doing the the highest weight you can do for 5-6 reps. Why in the fuck are you doing 20 reps of bench??
Nicholas Gutierrez
please be a troll
Caleb Perry
Angel Sanchez
Am I not supposed to be doing that? I honestly don't see why 10 to 20 reps is such a big deal. I'm only benching 1pl8.
Oliver Ward
You're only benching 1pl8 because you're doing 10-20 reps lmao. If you actually want strength gains and to grow muscle then you're gonna want to up the weight. You're barely going to be doing anything to your chest since you're doing 20 fucking reps, it won't grow.
Angel Mitchell
Natty? If so how long did this take
Daniel Brown
Started proper training in August, after some time of fucking around and benching literally every workout and no lower body at all.
>tfw Bench mogs other lifts
David Thompson
I'm not doing 20 reps to start out. I just make sure I'm able to do 20 with authority before increasing weight. This has been my game plan from the start. Could this be explaining my WEAK gainz? I don't do it twice or anything, just 20 flat reps and that's it. That's not too much, is it?
Jordan Long
>145 lbs ohp

Just how fucking big are you user
Jayden Long
Yes it's natty, no you probably won't believe me.
I ran track (sprinter) in highschool, but after I graduated I stopped any type of working out. Started lifting seriously in college, around February 2017. So almost 2 years of lifting "seriously". Probably gained around 20lbs, don't follow any diet though. iirc, from February to July I was on a bro-split then switched to a PPLPLLX I made up. Currently on that, enjoy it. Spend about 2 hours in the gym though.
tl;dr
Natty, 2 years.
Cooper Powell
Holy shit dude go watch some youtube videos. Learn about progressive overload. Learn about rep ranges. Yes it explains your weak gains. 3 sets of 5-6 reps with a comfortable weight, then move up from there. Start out with starting strength. Read the fucking sticky and don't come back until you're not retarded.

Jaxson Foster
Yeah I weigh around ~170 lbs at 5'7. I probably fucked up by not deadlifting and squatting right off the start with bro split, but I had amazing progress regardless.
Good luck man, shooting for 3/5/6 x5 by the end of 2019 for b/s/d.

Camden Miller
What do you want to see uncropped?
Jack Phillips
Doesn't cause the muscles to grow in size above 10-12 reps
Bentley Torres

Sebastian Wright
I can't fit everything in one pic though. I have a higher score here because I updated the weigh after I was sick Monday. In the original one I posted I was around 172 I think.

Cooper Ramirez
I hate that this site only allows dips, pull-ups, and chin-ups as part of calisthenics. I don't go to the gym, but what about sit-ups and push-ups and reverse push-ups as a bare minimum for calisthenics?
Granted I can only do five pull-ups and five chin-ups in a row (arms completely straight after every rep), but there are other muscle groups to train with simple calisthenics than the ones in pic related. I can see my abs already and all I do are inclined or weighted sit-ups.
James Smith
DUDE I DONT LIFT WEIGHTS BUT IM STRONG BRO
"no"
Oliver Bailey
I never said I was strong (FIVE PULL-UPS lol). I just don't lift weights because I'm a poorfag and going outside to the nearest set of metal rods attached to the floor is free.
Jaxon James
The screws are in his urethra
Aiden Hernandez
I trained weighted calisthenic a lot the past two summers, now I'm finally in the gym. I'm only squatting twice a week and deadlifting once, I think I need to change my routine or my lower body will never catch up to my upper body
Caleb Morris
