Mfw my body is ready for the gym but my brain is on vacation

Low frequency, high intensity, and coffee. I always go in fully recovered and wired. If I don't feel 100% jazzed to lift, I don't lift. And since I do real shit (5-rep max the big 3 then do an AMRAP set of pullups), I get stronger.

>the big 3

Post body pics. I wanna laugh.

How did I reach 3pl8 bench then?
I did it on accident?
Haha.
I've been lifting on and off for the past five years, my schedule always has room for lifting weights, which is why I don't need external motivation for it.
It's always there.

I likely do way more volume than you.

Post body

you sound exactly like a dyel

Wanna give me a good camera and a room with good lighting?
I don't know why it's hard to believe.
Ever hear of the ten thousand hour rule?
I'm not saying I spent ten thousand hours lifting weights but the habit is established enough that even if I feel bad I know it'll turn around when I start lifting.

If I'm dyel then you must be an emaciated pygmy manlet.

Still no body pics? Fucking pathetic, dyel.

think about her
not even joking

You see, I'm one of those rare anons who don't actually lie on the internet.
If I actually had the tools to make flattering pictures to blow you out with then I'd do it.
As it stands I don't.
I'd even wager that some of you fags would jerk it to some of my poses because I have a big ass.

Training log

ur gf sez hi

Kind of threw up in my mouth a little.

Can you even push out a good set of 2pl8s with that “””body”””?

Not yet, I can only press 210.

405/355/415 on the others

Bench good but squat and diddly need work my man

This mixed with lifting being 6d/wk anyway.

Caffeine but if I’m not really into it or not feeling very strong that day I’ll just do a different routine with high volume and squeezing each rep

Honestly, I think you’re full of shit. You say those numbers but your body says half of those numbers.

Not him but nearly all of the magic in good photos are in lighting and angles.
If he followed the same steps in the Murphey pic then he would have a better photo.

Nah I'm hunky as fuck and you jellymirin. 6'2" 215-220 btw

How'd you get to lmao4pl8 bench?
I'm nearly the same size as you but my best bench is only 3pl8.

355 bench. Really just 1x5 linear. I used to do a "ramped" 5x5 where I'd go 60/70/80/90/100% of that day's target weight but now I just save energy for the top 1x5 and warm up with easy triples.

For example, to warm up for 5x305 I'd go 3x135, 185, 2pl8, 265, then hit the work set.

Sometimes when 5s start to stall I'll do singles for a couple weeks. Basically max out and when I think I'm done I take 80% of my best completed rep and do 2x3. Switching between those two methods seems to work well.

I'm just getting more consistent now...500/400/500 in 2018 seems doable and I want it bad. After I'm done wrestling (just recreational-level) in May I am absolutely bloatmaxxing.

>translated to “I look like garbage, despite lifting for 5 years”

Lmao

Sheit I gotta start training for strength again.
I do way too much accessory and hypertrophy exercises because I want a chest like Scooby's.

Whatever makes you feel better, user.
I've had two 6 month plateaus from injuries thank you very much.
