Seems like most of this board has the wrong impression

Wtf is the 1234 standard

lurk moar

people to try to get to 1234 (plates)

1 plate OHP, 2 plate bench, 3 plate squat, 4 plate deadlift. That means on each side... plates are 45 lbs each

They are for 5. Anyone who can't do them for 5 is a weakfag

if you do them even for 1 rep you're still doing 1/2/3/4 you dumb autist. Do you even use your brain?

for 5 no question

So if I'm above 2345 I'm stronger than 99% of soys here? I was at this 1234 code word before my senior year in highschool..

Cool

Does 1/2/3/4 apply to manlets? I have no desire to fuck with with a 405 deadlift.

pretty sure 1/2/3/4 for 5 is stronger than 95% of Veeky Forums

just cheat it with sumo, fellow shortlad

why would you think that you fucking retard

It's easier to pull a conventional 405 DL as a manlet than if you're tall.

t. manlet who's achieved 1/2/3/4

Not him but probably cause having that as your working weight is more impressive than going "oh bro yeah bro i definitely lifted that one time bro"

it is 5 reps, it's just some beta soyboys that try to cheat the system "hurr i can do 1/2/3/4 as well brothers! [spoiler]but not really[/spoiler]"

IT'S 5 NOT 1!

I always thought it was for 8. I’ve made it brehs

Either you can lift 1/2/3/4 or you can't. 1 rep is enough. This meme needs to die.

well, it's obviously more impressive to do 1/2/3/4 for 5 reps than one rep, but it's still fair to say you can do 1/2/3/4 even if you can only do one rep. I hate this meme.

>hiding the fact that you’re a fat shit by using 1234 instead of 350+ wilks

This. If you make 1 rep, 2 and 3 are just around the corner, and 4 to 8 take a little bit.

It should be 2/3/4/5

you're so cool man, you started lifting in HS
how can someone be as cool as you?

you're never going to make it

>such a manlet that he's below average

You're such an inspiration fella. Women want to be with you, men want to be you. Life must be so easy for you, and yet, here you are

It actually refers the weight you can use for 10x10 German Volume Training.

kecc

Nobody likes people like you.

>getting so triggered by the weight comment he starts talking about height
are you a woman by any chance

>doing more than 3 deadlifts

>The 1/2/3/4 standard is 1RM???? I always thought they were for 5.
They are.

Unless you can bench 2xBW for 5, ie something that 95% of athletes can't do, you aren't really intermediate.

>something that 95% of athletes can't do, you aren't really intermediate

>if you are not in the top 5% of athletes you aren't intermediate

>if you only bench 165 kg x5 as a 83kg male you are still a beginner

Ok.

the numbers refer to number of plates, not BW

Wut

5'6 150lbs here. I do 1/2/3/3.5

>counting percentage of bodyweight
>NOT counting percentage of LBM
never gonna make it

For 5? Didn't know that this forum was so full of rippetards

and that's a 75 second rest between sets, not 90 you twinks

please post body
t. noob manlet

I always thought they were 5 because it’s a rule of thumb for when you should stop doing a beginners SS style 3x5 program. Unless you’re massive or a manlet, 5 reps of 1234 is a sign you should move to an intermediate program. That’s what I did anyway

Is 1/2/3/4 the standard for being male?

I can press 70kg, bench 100kg, squat 160kg, and deadlift 180kg. Feeling pretty weak desu.

>My hobby is hanging out in a place where extremely strong men go, and I spend lots of time on the internet looking at incredibly strong men and listening to my peers estating
you're always going to feel weak. the day you started lifting is the day you became forever small.

>2xBW for 5
So I am supposed to bench 250kg for 5? I guess I am still a beginner. SS, here I come!

F-fuck. What do?

Keep lifting

Alright twink

Hang out around normies and compare yourself to them.

>compare yourself to people who squat less than you press

heh actually a good idea to feel food about yourself

>doesn’t want to pull heavy
Faggot, just stop lifting

>press 70 but only bench 100

You sure you don’t mean push pressing there senpai?

No. I just rarely bench. My pecs are shit because of it.

Squat has always been a fucking awkward lift for me so I'm not surprised I've been stuck in the 200s forever, but I would've thought my bench would outpace my OHP

Run a Smolov Jr. cycle for the squat or do C6W lower portion.

It’s really more impressive to do it in increments of bodyweight
1/1.5/2/2.5 X

Nah, need to Wilks it. Bodyweight is easier for smaller guys by a lot.

You have to be 18

>PB conventional diddly is 2.5pl8 for 3

Conventional deadlifts are much harder, does this mean that they are better? I feel like a fraud doing sumo

>less than 150 lbs bodyweight
Lol

Sumo is cheating

>tastefully trimmed pubic hair
>nasty sweaty unkempt bush

but 5pl8 :(
how to i get good at conventional?

Do conventional until you're good at it

Your upper back will be shit at that height unless you can row at least 2pl8. You won't be able to keep tightness in your lats otherwise.
