What do I enter for OHP if I do dumbbells instead of barbell? Is it about hte same or 90%ish or what?
Adam Collins
Tfw shit squat, maybe its cause I go atg though. So close to 1 pl8 ohp.
22/5'11"/158 lbs 3 day split, twice a week Nearly 2 months Pullups or dips
I think dumbells are 85%ish of barbell, not completely sure though.
Christian Phillips
Bellow parallel is not atg
Cameron Gray
85%, thanks Matey!
Hunter Cooper
this thing compares you to other people in your strength class, which is kinda cool. i already knew i was above average for all my lifts, nice to see that i'm actually below average comparatively and what to work on

Anthony Perry
170cm at 64kg BW i've stopped doing OHP because i lack the shoulder mobility, which is kinda sad because it was my fav lift Also my biggest mistake was not doing a single squat for almost half a year i think? now i'm squatting 3 times a week and slowly building it up

Is that from an injury or not stretching enough? Ever done face pulls or dead hangs? Both are really good for your shoulders overall health.

i've never injured my shoulder because i do face pulls everyday, it's more of a mobility issue. I can't reach my hands over my head without hyperextending my lower back, so i would end up pressing in front of me while bending my back, without me even realizing until someone pointed it out to me.
Adrian Torres
do shoulder extensions with a stick, helps me warm up my shoulders for lowbar squatting
Thomas Hughes

Lucas Nelson
This or, if its too rigid you can use a towel.
Samuel Brooks
thanks, i'm doing them with very long towel. Is it ok if i can only reach the towel over my head?
Xavier Powell
if you can only reach over your head use a wider grip, i start at the ends of the stick and touch my ass with it but you only have to go past the sticking point, just do some reps with a wide grip and bring your hands in over time
Connor Long
you could also have a weird shoulder physiology that prevents proper ROM but its probably just tight pecs/delts like i have
Benjamin Thompson
Yeah, I would also google some dynamic stretching for shoulders if I were you. Pic related is difficult if you have mobility issues but is extremely good for said issues. Personally I have weak shoulders so I dynamic stretch and do dead hangs more regularly. It definitely helps with mobility also though. There are also some dynamic videos covering various pre-lift dynamic stretches on youtube that can help. Static stretches would also help a ton post work out.

Getting back to consistent lifting. 172/63 kg, doing SS. Been in gym for about 6 months, went from 54 kg to 64, then got some personal stuff do deal with, got down to 59 kg now been training on and off for about a month, so all my lifts are submaximal.

Jose Brooks
This is what I looked like on November 4th. then my depression came back with a vengeance, I skipped 4 weeks, did 2 weeks, skipped another on Xmas, and here I am, almost 2 years into lifting with laughable numbers. I am plagued by shit genetics compounded by ill timed pauses in my lifting. Literally every time I start to pick up steam, I do a pause that puts all my gains in the shitter.

OHP is performed while standing.
Isaac Allen
Haven't heard of seated OHP? It's basically the same except you don't use your core that much and can't cheat the lift in any way.

Holy shit why does everyone here have such good lifts after a few months? 24/79 kg/4 months Should I jump on a strength routine to catch up? I'm doing 2x/week full body
Cameron James
Increase your frequency to 3x weekly and look into a better program. You don’t need to do a strength routine, especially if your goals are not strength oriented, but it seems to me that you might not be doing enough to stimulate optimal growth.
Liam Howard
What program would you suggest? A split?
Dominic Ramirez
sitting also develops less muscle, stand up homo.
Alexander Howard

Didnt include back on here because none of my lifts are included and I can do more than 10 pull ups.
David Green
I did SS starting off and got good results. If I were a beginner again, I would probably go with Juggernaut Method 2.0 with slight changes for a beginner lifter. frequency is probably the biggest thing that’s holding you back though, try doing the same program you’ve been doing 3x weekly with as much volume as you can recover from and be good to do the same thing next week.
Camden Murphy
keep lifting, asscrack, come back in 4 months

I dunno what to think about this site. Pull ups are hard. Especially if you do full range of motion. I don't typically do chin-ups. I do other bicep work. He's my results 5'10" 180lb.
