me on the left

I've trained OHP once this year
I've trained bench 3x a week the entire year
I maxed out OHP
>its still proportionally stronger than my bench

Am I a dead end?????

only one way out of this problem user. convince the ipf to change the competition bench to The Press(trademarked)

I might saw off my delts so I'm never convinced to swap my main press

I love Rocco siffredi and I don't care who knows

good morning isley

>ywn be even remotely as strong or aesthetic as Rocco
Feels bad man. I'm objectively more handsome though so at least there's that.

My first competition in December. GBPF East Midlands regional. Not expecting to do great. Just doing it for the experience and hoping don't bomb out!

You gay?

so isleyy

Yes. I'm coaching danklifts at the babby British today

I've given up on anything but strength but I still feel like I need strength to be anything but a pain in this general

Atm I'm actually just a weak-cunt

oh thats cool

any1 ran ph3 before? Feels like im running my body into the ground even on a surplus.

Take roids like he does and you too can be strong and aesthetic

>lurk /plg/ for years before I even lifted because the rest of Veeky Forums is cancer
>feel like I know all these people somewhat intimately, share feels of failure and success even though I only exist to them as user
>start lifting, absolute dogshit at everything except bench, can never compete because I'm so absurdly terrible and physically fragile, love lifting though
>will never be a real part of the group I know so much about and share so much in common with

Is this how Sean felt, once upon a time?

This, jews literally can't be that athletic and aesthetic naturally.

You can compete regardless of strength level Tbh

Also, why not bench only if it's a good lift for you?

>That dude that only takes pictures with 'ugly face' so other people will think it's intentional.

How is it possible to be so beautiful lads
no homo

I don't mean I'm powerlifting weak. I'm normal weak. Like sub 2/3 plates on squats and dl. I know the only answer is time and effort, I'm not really complaining. I'd just be wasting people's time on the platform is all.

anyone has a link to the previous /plg/ ?

How long have you been training?

Also, it literally does not matter, nobody will be mad at you for lifting lower weights, you're doing it for yourself.

Not true.
As a spotter/weight loader and spectator, weak people competing are just a waste of everyone's time on a pl meet.
You can build a total in the gym fine, and then compete when you're actually competitive.

Since Feb last year. To be fair I've taken numerous fairly long breaks from squats and deads because my back and hips and kinda shit and I've had some back injury flare up about 4 times, so it's not that I've failed to gain strength in those lifts, I've just never successfully done even a novice linear progression with them due to inconsistency/injury. I'd say I have about 8-12 months legit training under my belt total. So you can see how weird and pathetic I am: 75/102.5/132.5 and yes that's sbd. Would you honestly think someone like that should be on the platform and not just in the gym?

What country are you from? Sounds like you don't have a very proactive and encouraging sports culture.

stress is killing my strenght gains

I should add I'm not a twink either, 90kg at around 6'0 and not really too fluffy.

In my experience, the actual competitors think differently.

Got 8 reps for 142.5kg

Time for 8x3 of the same weight

Can you roll the bar with deadlift in >ipf ?

whats a good bench program you can recommend?

Monday
Spoto press 6x4 start easy add 2.5kg weekly

Wednesday
Bench 4x8-10 start very easy add 2.5kg weekly

Friday
Doubles up to 85% pr by 2.5kg when possible followed by board presses or slanger for 3x2-3 as heavy as possible

I personally guarantee your gains.

Madcow a lotta bodybuilding crap

this sounds pretty good I don't quite understand friday do I have to PR with doubles or do I keep doing doubles till I reach 85% then I add? english isn't my first language so I'm kind of confused also which accessories do you recommend?

sorry I meant on fridays do I just do 1 set of doubles at 85% of my max or are there more sets than that?

Pls be bench

I'm doing the sheiko programs using the official app.

It calls for dips at 70%, I just assumed it was weighted dips. However Sheiko has no weighted dips, and the demo is unweighted dips

I have done all my dips with a 15kg plate, is this wrong?

I can't STOP listening to that belly button song!!!!!
Its so GOOD

I NEED TO TELL U SOMETHING

BABY IM THE ONE WHOS LOVE IS NO SURPRISE

BUT THERE'S A SECRET IVE BEEN HIDING I CAN HIDE IT NO MORE

@ß
ASS

LOL!

>Stopped smolov cause hips started hurting

>wake up
>realize you won't have time to lift till Saturday afternoon
>realize you will be nearly forced at gunpoint to drink afterwards

>complaining about having friends and a social life
fuck you dude

>forced at gunpoint to drink

How does it feel to be a pussy incapable of making your own decisions?

Just limit yourself to 2 beers if you're going out with friends. That won't affect your training at all.

Just drink until you are somewhat drunk but will have no hangover.

Drinking does nothing to your gains as long as it's done rarely.
The day after drinking I usually am really strong too, somehow.
Alcohol has some quality calories in it.

It's Halloween there, tough guy. Thanks for the unsolicited advice on how to live my life though.

Yeah that's the general plan.

Philip said if I drink ever ill never ever progress.

He wouldn't say such a thing

>awaaa my friends force me to do stuff i dont wanna do
>dont tell me how to live my life

>kill yourself
>unfortunately wake up the next morning

>I don't understand exaggeration, group norms, or anything else about how humans interact

I always wonder if people like you are just trying to be annoying by taking what's being said literally or if you are actually not understanding the mean behind it.

Okay so what the hell do I do when I can't progress a sub 4 pl8 deadlift by the "1 topset of 5 once a week, increase 2.5kg" approach anymore?

With such a ahitty DL I definitely want to progress weekly - what is a different approach to do that?
I think I need 2 sessions a week or smth

Swap to monthly progression

aren't there some solid deadlift programs with a frequency of 2, maybe even more?

Try maxing out every day

Are you doing a volume day for deadlifting?

What is a good monthly 1-2x a week deadlift program other than 28 free memes?

im working in 3 week waves atm feeling good

5/3/1 for nice 2x a week
coan/phillipi if you're desperate
korte 3x3 if you want 3x a week
GZCL deadlift wave form if you believe in the power of deficit/block pulls

Well what people always say on here is to have a single session a week where you work up to a top set of 5. That would make it a volume session ye.

I somehow want to have 2 sessions though.
Maybe one where I get some volume in and one where I do peaking sets of 2s or 3s?

Progressive volume styles can be organised like that. Hepburn being the most known, but really any protocol that keeps weight constant while increasing sets or number of reps per set and then increasing weight with a return to minimum volume for the next cycle.

On a monthly basis you could do 2x3 -> 4x3 -> 6x3 -> 8x3 then increase weight and back to 2x3 the next month. The 2x3 is a semi deload week that way.
Reps and sets are just one example obviously.

ive always suffered pulling twice i get really burnt out

Is this video right? Is this why i can barely do 1/2/3/4 for reps after 3 years of lifting?

youtube.com/watch?v=qwV_n4lAhtI

I lift way too little weight and currently don't squat.
Should be almost impossibly unlikely that I get burnt out right?

And I feel like I should definitely use the left over energy for another deadlift session?

What people? In /plg/? Nobody here would tell you to do that past the novice stage. And no, one heavy top set is not a lot of volume, even if it is enough to progress on for a little while.

do that past the novice stage

I am not too sure where the novice level ends.
I believe I am still in it.

Somehow managed to pull 175 in a random peak attempt.
But yeah, I'm 6'4 and weigh 115kg.
Wouldn't be too negative to call it novice level.

Izzy looks a lot better with hair Tbh

Also yeah, I believe he's right.

What's with the clickbait ads?
I'd assume the average Veeky Forums user is going to be smarter than to click on them. They are literally a meme here

You're intermediate.
>almost 4plate
>cant progress per session anymore
Definitely intermediate

Asian moot sold us out, I just turned adblock back on

Well he had to really. NURR REVENUIRR

Oh well.

Are the 28 free ones approved for DL? If so I'll just pick one that sounds the most matching and run it.

Trappy might have turned me gay lads.

I NEVER jacked off to trap porn before she came here
Now I get off in seconds to it

Ffs I want to be normal again

He is a Jew. He did this to 2chan. He pretended they needed money and did fund raising to turn a profit.
He doesn't care about the user base, just money.

He did everything he's doing now on 2chan and he sold all 2chan pass holders information to third party's.

There is no evidence he is low on funds

Today my lifts were improved by the divine support of my Adidas® adiPower™ Weightlifting shoes.

I recommend you get your pair TODAY!

My lower back pain I've had since JANUARY is OFFICIALLY GONE.

I can do good mornings without pain anymore.

I feel so fucking great lads

Pause deadlifts absolutely murder me

I feel like a fat fuck doing them because ill be breathing heavy for 5 minutes after them

>today's """"dinner""""
>hot dogs and potato chips

>I can do good mornings
But why would you?

I won't! They suck balls.
But it means my back is better :)

Before I couldn't hinge a squat without extreme pain

Cuuuuuuuunt.
