Are you living it? That might be it

Bodyweight only went up 1 kg in a month, I was sick :(

>non-vertical forearms
How do you bench with horizontal forearms?

It's not going to be possible to keep perfectly vertical forearms for the vast majority of people if they use max grip width. It's perfectly fine.

Yikes

bench press is the best gauge of RAW PHYSICAL STRENGTH. you only downplay this because you're a pudgy, weak little shit of a manlet with an equally embarrassing bench press.

nobody gives a shit that you can bounce your morbidly obese gut off of your legs for your little bullshit wide stance "squat". nobody cares about your 5 inch ROM sumo "deadlift".

bench. press. is. king.

No, am lankleting it. What weight are you at?

Fuck wrong version, this one doesn't have a white background

Reminder that if you don't drink beer, you're a fucking pussy. German lifters in the late 19th century and early 20th century drank beer as a staple of their diet as they believed it made them more manly and vigorous.
p.s.
They lifted more than you.

>lankleting
So you are not living it

/plg/ and /owg/ are literally the only threads worth posting in on this board. Great bants and has people who actually lift and know things about lifting. The rest of the board is DYEL, incels, lookism fags, aesthetics twinks, roiders, and fake nattys.

>DYELs
>Incels
>Roiders
We have those in /plg/.

Alex falls perfectly in the aesthetics twinks category desu

The roiders here are honest about roiding, mostly.
This thread has the least incels, even fat retard gets his dick wet in a moist pussy.
The DYEL's here at least get the knowledge to stop being DYEL's.

So you're saying we have the Chads of the respective subcultures of Jow Forums.

Yeah, I would say so. If you define Chad as having sex and loving life.

>aesthetics twink that pulls 550 or so
>low dose roider that outlifts all of /fraud/ by far, while also looking better than almost all of them
>ugly fat homosexual jew with shit lifts, that still has a gf
>dyel that presses 235 overhead
Pretty much

We even have chads of shitposters. No other shitposters are as dedicated as sean or benchposter.

Good point

Who is George Seeger and why should I care about his broscience?

>while also looking better than almost all of them
Nobody on fraud looks good. The most roided guys like massthetics and the other vocal one (can't remember his trip) look like swollen cocks and have shit lifts.

This version is superior

>Who is George Seeger and why should I care about his
He is a national record holder, that means he knows what he's talking about.
>broscience?

Anyone else have roided up bodybuilding fags in their gym run away from the dl platform or squat racks as soon as you come in the gym? I only dl 560 and sqt 530, and I fucking swear they run away.

In suited powerlifting, which is like holding a record in eating peas from a tin with a toothpick in under 1 minute.

>some skeleton that is at my gym for like 3months can rep what I struggle to 1rm with arch leg drive etc (half a plate)
jesus christ it hurts to be the worst gde EU

Yep had one who couldnt even bench 80kgs without slamming it into his chest and catapulting it with his ass. Whenever he saw me coming to benches he would just run away one floor up just so I don't warm up with his max.

Holy fuck no way that's Janoy, where did his hair go?

1plate and a halt no half a plate, but still
>mfw
what intermediate program is good for gdes that are weak and lack muscle mass, i.e ok volume

>tfw your biceps are the color of the totality of my body

You need a 1000 total to post here, shitters.

Since january I put 30 kg on my bench, 20 kg on my squat, and 25 kg on my deadlift (I think those numbers are about right I'll check my spreadsheet later)
Fuck chins though

Don giv up fren

What?

>472 kg = 1040 lbs total
Whew I'm safe

1000kg, dummy

We only post in kg here, bro.

Literally nobody here has a 1000 kg total, not even close.

>he doesn't know
ohnononono

Two girls wanted to have sex with me tonight and I went home because I'm a virgin and wanted to stay one

I am so annoyed I want to scream

Girl from last time again put her head on my shoulder and went to sleep in class today. I then also fell asleep.

>tfw if I ever got a gf I'd have to tell her I'm a virgin or look like a bumbling retard
>she'll wonder why I'm still a virgin my body and lifts
Should be interesting.

Fuck George Seeger and fuck white peepo.

>guy in class says he showed a pic of me to his gf, she thinks I'm hot and wants to have a threesome

>guy in class says he showed a pic of me to his gf, she thinks I'm hot and wants to have a threesome
lmao what a cuck

Who? The strongest guys here all total 750-850. Even forkliftsley is only at 880.

Jokes aside, I'm claiming the title of "highest strength/looks ratio on /plg/". Not that I'm THAT strong, but I look like absolute shit lol.

Nice

Nice blog *kills yourself*

Sean has the 1k total.

I think he means wide grip and close grip

what intermediate program doesnt need a phd in maths to run it properly?
If it does, does it exist pre digested excel sheets that you just have to enter your 1rm and it says it all

5/3/1 FSL and inverse juggernaut method.
Simple plug in and train programs that will make you jacked and strong.

going to lurk the internets on my bed, anyone of those two have some room if never I want to add some bb shit like db bench press?

Should I do the last week of the bridge (tm) or just jump on another prog since its a piss easy week

Of course. Both programs have you doing 8-12 reps on assistance lifts like db bench on off days. So when you do your barbell oph, you will db bench. When you barbell bench, you db ohp.

which one do you recommend, Ive seen that you can combinate 5 3 1 with "boring but big' thingy, is it any good?
I have shit lifts so I might recover from it

>cheesecake after cardio

5/3/1 BBB is a lot of volume. I reckon it's best to start off with 5/3/1 FSL (first set last). You do your 3 main sets, then do 5x5 @ your first set weight.

If I dont have a shit ton of volume my presses stay the same

3 main sets, plus 5x5 is a lot of volume, especially for an intermediate

What are the "Main sets" scheme? Is it 3x5 or something?

Week 1. 3x5 @ 65%, 75%, 85%, then 65% 5x5
Week 2. 3x3 @ 70%, 80%, 90%, then 70% 5x5
Week 3 3x5/3/1 @ 75%, 85%, 95%, then 75% 5x5

Don't be a bitch, I squatted 240kg on a program like this. With even less intensity.

And that's training max, which is 90% of your max. So if your backsquat is 230, your training max is 207 and thus your first weeks numbers would be 135, 155, 175, then 135 5x5

I'm a different guy. I've been doing 5x5 with 85%+ though and then dropping it down to 3x6-8 with 70% and no real issues.

What about nsuns 531

>nsuns
Fucking retarded shit. A 1200 pound totaling redditor thinks that he has better ideas than Jim Wendler. It's just spinal tap with extra shit strapped onto it.

lots of early intermediates see gains on it for a second because of all the volume and then crash hard or get injured

>just noticed the 1/8 smith machine squat by the woman wearing 500$ in clothes

I recommend SVR ii. It's the most fun version of 531 I've done, with great volume for starting a volume cycle to a comp (intermediate)
