I'm coming for you CHAD
REEEEEEEEEEEE

You'll make it man, don't worry. Have you tried adding 3 or 4 sets of incline dumbbell work to help your chest out? Either presses or flies?

thank mr skeltal

Can't wait to start bulking in a month, I'm going for that full green this autumn!

Goddamn knees, why don't you work?

good bones and calcium upon you

thanks brah. I have not tried that! today's 115 set went pretty well so I think I should be able to hit 125 on Saturday and get past the plateau for now. but I will keep that option in mind

did you start out with some fat on you?

Supplement back squat with front squats if you back squat low bar, helped me push past 2x bw. Quads were a big weakness for me. Your deadlift strength off the floor will get better too.

OHP is so fucking hard to progress

Try adding 2-3 sets of dumbbell lateral raises. See if it helps!

>dl 110kg 3x5 ez and progressing every week

Also make sure you're eating appropriately. Most of your carbs before/after your workouts, adequate protein intake of 0.8-1g/lb body weight, 8hrs of sleep per night, and daily 5mg creatine makes a huge impact.

feelsgoodman:

got a bunch of help from trainers/friends over the past month to help my bench get a lot tighter, I was stuck at 125 5x5 for super long and now I can bang out 145 5x5 easy.

SS

get on my level plebs

>Site is for weightlifting and not calisthenics
Why? Bodyweight training is a better indication of actual strength than just lifting heavy shit and putting it down again

lifts?

6'
145.5 lbs

nice job autumn man

>doing BW push ups is harder than BPing 300+ pounds
Ok bro

You can make bodyweight exercises as easy or as difficult as you want you muppet, do you think doing one armed handstand pushups is easier than bench pressing 300 lbs?

This is made much less impressive by the fact that I'm female, and a 103lb womanlet at that. Their levels for women seem super low to me.
