Symmetric Strength Thread

i don't know
i did a lot of rowing when i was in school, maybe there is still something left of it

You will. Just stick with it.

nah, bulking since i started though from 150 -> 168 as of today. gonna stop soon since i'm close to 20% bf. i'm 5'8

weird how you squat more than you deadlift and your row is very close to it

Yeah I just noticed that too. My pendlay row is at like 160lb-170lb for 5.Never did any type of rowing and was always fat so never did pull ups. But my bench is atrocious. Struggling to work over 1lmaopl8.

it's even weirder when i tell you i'm semi t-rex mode

I only swam in HS
Recovering skelly.
I can Pendlay 185x5
DL is 205x5
Squat is 145x5

I PUSH MY FINGERS INTO MY

lifting for 2,5 months

Serious question, how accurate is this?
symmetricstrength.com/standards

Look at this worthless shit. My lower back basically breaks from anything at all.

Op is a big guy

Found the curlbro

I don't curl. I just think most of my form is shit so I tend to use biceps instead of what I really ought to use.

What app is this?

...

Tfw 3rd month lifting

Leave

Am I going to make it bros?

It's better than I'd hoped. I had a negative symmetry score last time, so at least that's gone.

192lbs.

Cutting down to 180. How much do you think my maxes will suffer? Will I get my strength back quick?

Estimated results from:

180kg deadlift for 8 reps (could probably do 12~15 reps, felt pretty light today, my best lift by far)
140kg squat for 12 reps
100kg Bench for 11 reps
OHP might be inflated, I do it seated behind the neck, and you guys usually do it standing.
5 chin ups with 40kg

the 5 rep maxes seem fine to me, at least it corresponds to my personal cutoffs for intermediate/proficient area.

body pic pls? no homo

pics of people with 4/3/2/1 are rare, would like to see

It compensates for being fat. A 225 bench press isn't even inermediate for a fatty

>220 lbs back squat
>untrained

Jesus dude how fat are you?

If you lift that after 3 months I will eat my own head

"Exceptional" for your tits

How low is your symmetry score?

My problem with this shit is that it doesn't factor in low bar squat, supinated rows, or other variations of the main lifts

>1000 lbs club after 3 months
Nah, son

finished 6 months of SL

I just became a blue man after 3 months of SL, however I stopped squatting and deadlifting around a month ago to let my left hip flexor recover, so I guess those lifts should be lower.

My ass is fat

why spend so much time comparing yourselves to others? everyone has different body types and different motivations for different workouts. If I spent all my time comparing myself to other people I might be the total loser that I am, but if I did it now I would be depressed af. I'd rather ignore the fact that humanity has left my degenerate skinny ass in the dirt

*might not be

Dat bench keepin me down.
Anyone got good bench program recommendations?

This is all i got now, im not very big, 82kg at best

Read dumbass

my bench press was 260 idk why it put in 280

Get out.

I HIT NOVICE TODAY LADS!!
SKELLY ON 3.5 MONTHS OF SS although the first month or so was spent thinking i was eating enough but actually not and my lifts stalled for like a whole month but GOMAD saved me although now i have backne

Not as strong as I'd like but not bad

Just curious, how old are you? I want to compare your strength with your age.

>tfw when second year of brosplit

Don't really strength train though

5'9", 170 lbs, 18 years old.
Still shitty (fucking bench) but it's starting to get somewhere. Lifting for about a month and a half.
Please excuse the shitty collage app.

23, 68kg, 5'8

started at 61kg

5 months 6'0 180lb

Don't you insult best press

Daily reminder that any 1RM calculator is bullshit.

damn dude, what do you weigh?

Am I gonna make it?

...

Oh shit, I dun goofed. It was two reps with 35kg on the weigthed pullups.

>posts screenshot to show how impressive he is
>measures in communism units

>proud of using a retarded system every country except two 3rd world shitholes and the US has abandoned

We all gotta start somewhere, in two years you'll look back and laugh

3.5 months? Did you used to do rowing or something?

It's called intermediate? I can't find it, REEEEE

rate pls

These were my lifts last year. I had worked out before, but it had been 2 years since.

16 weeks results
Bench from 160 --> 210
Squat from 200 --> 290 (Didnt try too much on squat in the beginning, gave a little more effort towards the end)
>Power clean from 125 --> 195

hes only got proficient on dips and rows because they're meme lifts. the website inflates them and nobody cares about them anyway. his other lifts are about where they should be at 3 months. maybe bench is a bit subpar

>intermediate
>after 3 month
kek

still working towards that thicc body

6 weeks in

Routine?
Age?
Height?
Weight?

Come on, goys.

Do you train with high reps or what ? Who the fuck does 180kg 8 reps ? or Squat 140kg 12 reps..?

What does your program look like ?

>proud of being a communist

I-I don't do squats or deadlifts or THE PRESS

Not unless you do some squats.

Probably AMRAP sets

>coelurosaurian theropod mode

If only they actually did add color to our tits... Nice job anyway, fellow amazon!

>dat shitty fucking bench press

You are the definition of a gymcell

>still subpar after almost 3 months

yeah you aint making it

>tfw OHP is JUST tier

I think the website can be a bit generous when calculating 1RMs though.

But she posted tits.

>ohp
fucking end me

What app/programming is this?

>Symmetric Strength Thread

Me after 3 months, recovering fatty. Was 300 dropped down to 260.
I'll make it one day.

You've already done well. 40 pounds in three months? That's a great start! Give yourself a great big pat on the back and a nice juicy steak with a Caesar salad as a reward.

If you reward yourself with healthy food, you'll gain motivation to keep going. You've already gone far. You WILL make it!

In retrospect, was it worth it? Or would you have changed sooner? I started a month ago seriously.

OP here. I do a HLM routine now, but was on SS for 3 months. So, 4 months total.
