Why do I need to? As long as my abs are visible I know I'm at a healthy bf%, I'm more interested in adding weight to the bar than getting super lean

tfw my ohp & bench

Just personal opinion that's all friend.

I wouldn't describe it as super lean, just lean.

You are clearly already 'exceptionally' strong so there isn't much to be gained by arbitrarily lifting 5 more kilos. But looking considerably better would be a much easier goal by being leaner.

But again it's different goals for different people. I am apparently at 15 percent body fat and I feel its way too high lol

Yeah, different goals different people. I made it a point this year just to get as brutally strong as possible, and so I could give less of a shit about aesthetics atm. Maybe next year I'll fuck around w/ looking good.

getting leaner is literally just as pointless as getting slightly stronger

this is my goal body. What's your routine?

Ive been lifting for 4 months now on SS and started phase two (add power clean) this week. Is there any reason to change this or should I keep it till i hit 1/2/3/4? I hit 1 plate on the press, but everything else only 2/3 the way there.

We are kind of similar huh?

Nice trips
I've done primarily a PPL routine with 5x5 on the big 3, now doing it with OHP as well. I'll also do a few 5/3/1 cycles once or twice a year if I feel my lifts are stalling. I think PPL will be more conducive to filling out your frame than SS but I'm far from an expert

I think you're quite a bit bigger desu

lookin spooky desu in a good way

freaky

Except almost everyone likes someone lean hence why everyone wants to lose weight.

It's a very slim number of people who just want to arbitrarily lift bigger weights.

Therefore it's more efficient to look good than to lift heavy. And by heavy I mean Heavy.

>almost everyone likes someone
lmao lifting to make other people like you is pathetic

being leaner makes you look better far easier than putting 10lb of muscle alongside 20lb of extra fat
that and being lighter is healthier

this site is total bullshit
I need 220kg fucking squat in order to get yellow legs, what the fuck?
meanwhile my average looking barely outside of dyel status arms are fucking world class?
fucking lmao

Attached: bullshit.jpg (777x681, 58K)

Lifts are 170 kg squat, 230 dl kg, 115 kg bp, 55 kg weighted chin, 40 kg pull up, dips 40 kg x5, incline 100 kg

What's your added weight on chinup/pullup?

> got my first sliver of green (delts)

We really are all gonna make it brehs. Who knew lifting heavy and eating a fuckload of protein would produce results?

It’s called wide waist genetics lol.
Nothing he can do besides surgery
But girls don’t give a fuck. In fact most girl would want that
Faggots like the small waist boys

you have to be really young to get this score from 77 kg benchpress

eat more

I feel that my legs are racing ahead of my upper back which makes me tip forward in both squats. I'm thinking about doing rack holds with supramaximal weights to correct this. Any suggestions?

this app is retarded. if an untrained male can do 1 rep of 65 kg ATG back squat without collapsing, or can do 1 unassisted pull-up from hang or can do 1 dip (let alone 5 kg added) in full ROM, i'll take off my clothes, run on the streets, yelling "i wanna get raped by 10 nigger cocks". this list is wrong information and can lead to injuries.

Wtf is wrong with your pecs you twink

well its symmetric on the sagittal plane

They're just estimates, lighten up. No one that's untrained even cares about estimating their 1rm.

Yeah I always wondered, the average untrained Person lacks the mobility to do even a full high bar squat with the bar. The standards are rather for low ROM lowbar squats above parallel

Why do breasts look like brains or ground meat?

2 and a half years lifting. Started with SL then Texas method. Since moved on to RPE based training and got all kinds of gains

Is there a site for this?

Symmetric strength is the site

I’ve only recently started lifting but I’ve been climbing for a long time.

I never do 1rm always rep maxes.
Estimates are
295 dL
235 sq
180 bench
120 ohp
170 row
+80 on dip and pullup

I literally posted body pics, user

According to the site that's about a 1RM of 90kg added. The world record is 104kg added. You're either insanely good at pullups or you're not doing full ROM/using momentum.

>ATG back squat
Here's their criteria for a back squat:
With the barbell on your back, descend until the top surface of your thighs is lower than the top of your knees ("below parallel"), then stand back into an upright position where the knees are locked. For the purposes of measuring on Symmetric Strength, the squat is not complete unless your legs move below parallel with the ground, and knee wraps should not be used

Where does it mention ATG?

I want a titanium chest, how did you get yours?

You're doing well, user. Keep it up; it gets easier.

1RM calculations are incredibly terrible
it is WAY easier to do 10x45kg than 1x90kg, not even comparable
my 1 rm at the time I did 10x45kg was 70kg.

Yeah 1RM calculations get more uncertain the more reps you do. Why did you not simply enter your 70kg 1RM?

because 10x45kg sounds way cooler, and because I almost never trained in heavier rep ranges
