    Maybe he's just doing maintenance as opposed to strength building.

        Does seem a bit low, but in theory if someone didn't want to get bigger or flabby, it makes sense.

          i highly doubt young, skinny dudes are going to the gym so they can stay skinny. they can already do that by not going to the gym.

                you have poor reading comprehension. I'm saying it's entirely plausible that young skinny dudes are indeed trying to maintain a skinny physique, due to taking internet memes too seriously, because their generation is autistic.

      if they're too lazy to look up basic day 1 concepts of building muscle after going to the gym for months, they're never gonna make it anyway
      progressive overload is not some revolutionary concept, it's literally "try to do more reps or lift a heavier weight than last time", you don't need some uber specific powerbuilding periodization program to make gains.

      How about mind your fricking business and stop losing your shit every time someone trains with the same weight.
      For all you know they could be improving their form after doing it wrong, or aren't string enough to move up a whole 10 pound increment yet.

      These fricking homosexual ass redditor takes remind me of the fat 50+ year old guys who would hang around the YMCA and give the stinkeye to young gym users for no reason.

      Your like the gym version of those old skier grandpas who tuck in their jackets and scream their head off when toddlers accidentally ski to close.

    Theres this guy at my gym who clearly has no idea what he’s supposed to be doing. He loads as much weight as possible and yanks it with shit form. He looks like a cartoon character when he lifts. I wanted to help him but he meanmugs me and looks a bit simple anyway so frick him. People who want to make it will seek advice, im not giving it unsolicited.

            if someones says they bench 225lbs, they are benching 2 plates on each side and a 45lb bar, what is difficult to understand? You're the odd one out, everybody includes the bar.

              if you are benching 2 plates its 40 kg... one plate is 20 kg, so you just count how many plates are in your lift number.. for example if you lift 100 kg then you go 100:20=5, that means you bench 5 plates

    I'm stuck on 80kg (1.5pl8) bench for a few months now. Like 4 or maybe 5. It's gotten considerably easier, but I still struggle to make 8 reps, always can give at least 5 though

    idk about 30kg though, maybe the guy is a casual that doesn't really care

      20 kg to 55 kg in few months, almost trippled strength, seems good to me, how do you feel? lets say you take a year and get it to 100 kg, would that be cool? i dont know, i think thats pretty cool

        > how do you feel?
        Alright, making more or less the same progress on my other lifts but I feel some are slowing down (Triceps are hard, just started doing JM press and that shit's tough too, doing 20kg bar + 5kg plates)
        >lets say you take a year and get it to 100 kg, would that be cool?
        That would be solid growth honestly but I'm not sure how much it will slow down, going from 20kg to 55kg isn't too bad because it's mostly getting starting strength, but going from even like 60kg to 80kg is a bigger jump in itself I feel, never-mind up to 100kg, but I will focus on it.

    This is me. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.
    I’m eating well, mostly animal protein and carbs, no sneed oils or fast food. I’ve been putting on 1.5-2 kg per month since October yet my bench is still at 5x50 kg.
    I fail bench two times a month when I try to push the limit. My other lifts aren’t going up either or very slowly.
    I’m running sort of Reddit PPL-Brosplit hybrid now, 5-6 days a week. I tried stronglifts before but I was losing weight back then so I didn’t think much of the stagnation. I also hated squatting 3 times per week.
    I hired a PT and he said my form is ok and I should be gaining strength.
    I get 8 hours of sleep and supplement creatine, multivitamin and zma. I stopped drinking and smoking completely. I feel great and don’t get sick anymore, but I’m weak and look like shit.
    Bros if I don’t start making gains soon I’ll have to start juicing or end it. I can’t put in any more time or effort into this.

      Deload. Start again from a lower weight. Make sure your movements are slow and in control. Do some negatives. Really build up that mind-muscle connection. Focus on activating each muscle involved. Tear em up by being slow, in control, and focused on the specific muscles.

    They just dont know how to train or eat. We are talking about 0 protein territory and "i bench 30 for 10 reps for 3 sets because... my random program from x influencer said so!!! He is jacked af and he is totally natural, he just eats duck eggs and takes his supplement line products. What are you talking about? Progressive what?"
    People suck at doing their own reaserch and they want a random dude to make a video on israelitetube to explain them instead. Then they take the bait, buy the supplements, they still dont eat protein and train like shit, then they would either take roids or give up.

    I've been going to the gym for 1 month and I can only bench 10kg. I think most of it is due to my week wrists from years of gaming.
    I think I'll just drop bench press and do dumbbells instead for chest.
