not too bad, bring your squat up to 80-90kg and you'll be fairly balanced
Deadlift 150
Bench 80
Squat 120
Ohp 60
Bench like once a month, squat everyday.
My advice if you want to increase squat, stop doing like 5 reps everytime, increase weight and work in 2-4 rep range with 80-90% 1rm.
If you want to increase OHP, add push press.
>Bench like once a month
I'm benching right now and just added more bench because I'm still stuck on 80kg after 3 sessions.
I need that 2pl8 anon
Understandable, but 1 plate ohp is more bad ass than 2 plate bench imo, at least i got that impression from different gyms. I just focus on ohp & push press for upper body strength, bench increasing by itself at snail pace.
Frick, pressing 2pl8 must feel god like
One day
Personally know a guy who overhead pressed 115 kg at 88 or 90 bodyweight, but he's a national level weightlifter with 170 snatch 200 clean & jerk, almost certainly on gear. Absolute moster. For us natty mortals to ohp 100 i think you'd have to weigh more than that and squat like 230.
>Bench like once a month
but why
I just don't like benching. I have some discomfort in right shoulder with wide grip so i only do close grip. In my opinion dumbbell press or flyes work chest a lot more. Also weighted dips.
I also prefer dumbbell bench press. Don't worry about your barbell performance if these are what you focus on
Same numbers but I bench once a week and squat once a week (unless you count dumbbell bench and SSB squat).
Bench 70kg
DL 135kg
OHP 45kg
Squat 130kg
My ass is getting quite big but my squat numbers keep going up so fuggit
>225 (freedom pounds)
>135 (liberty units)
>170 (star spangled weight measures)
>100 (dodge challenger torque foot-pounds)
For 5
Deadlift 110kg
Squat 90kg
BENCH 52KG
Ohp 38kg
My upper body is so fricking cringe. Especially for bench idk what the problem is I can do 35 clapping pushups easily but I have hardly progressed on bench at all in 8mo of lifting
lower the weights and focus on form and more reps
Are you under 50 kg body weight?
>Deadlift 110*10
>Bench 85*5
>Squat 90*5
>OHP 52.5*5
>Dips +40kg*8
Second time deadlifting I was doing 100kg*10 @75kg bw.
Apparently I was rounding my spine like a moron though, got spooked when told, tried to fix it using lighter weight but never actually managed not to round my back.
When I go low I always feel like I'm falling behind.
A similar thing (feeling like falling) goes for squatting, so I never did it, only pressing @ the meme machines.
I'm 178cm but with very long legs.
Also hurt my knee 6 months ago and used it as an excuse not to train legs, so now I'm probably much weaker.
>but never actually managed not to round my back
I don't think you should deadlift at all until you actually fix this. It's not worth the risk
I agree, I haven't ever trained it since, did it 4 times actually in total, I made a mistake in the other post.
>first time 60kg*10 felt like fainting
>next week 80kg*10 not too bad
>next week 100kg*10 felt good
>week after that 110kg10 felt hard
Then a guy came up to me and told me I was rounding my back. I asked him to video me with just 60kg and still couldn't keep it straight. My legs shoot up first as I feel like falling back.
Tried to fix form once, then hurt my knee not @ the gym and haven't tried since.
Might try trap-bar DL, might be better.
Used to have that problem until I tensed my lower body to "lock" my hips (if that makes sense) so my legs moved first while upper body stayed the same.
Might try out that cue, thanks.
RDL: 80kg for three sets of five
Squat: 90kg for three sets of five
Bench: 75kg for three sets of five
OHP: 52.5kg for three sets of five
How bad is this? I’m 5’7, around 170lbs
It's not so bad. You can get much stronger than this, but don't feel demoralized. Just keep working hard, eat well and sleep properly.
OHP 170
Bench 280
Squat 275
DL 385
Kg?!
>imbalancemaxxing
That's not an imbalance, you (and most other anons in this thread) are just weak overall and need to get out of your beginner phase in order to figure out where you might be lacking. I've got a longstanding back injury which periodically returns to frick any progress I ever make on lower body lifts, my current 1rms are all as follows:
>OHP 80kg
>bench 120kg
>squat 125kg
>deadlift 190kg
Now that feels imbalanced. knows what I'm talking about.
>Benching more than you squat is not an imbalance
Arnold moment.
Benching more than you squat when both are babbyweight and you've only been lifting for a few months is not an imbalance, it's just a technique/comfort issue.
This thread makes me feel a lot better about myself, thanks.
Where's the guy that comes in and says everyone is a gay and he squats 800kg and has a model wife, is rich, life starts at 30 etc?
He's probably busy over at IST
DL 170kg 1x5
Squat 140kg 3x5
Bench Press 100kg 3x5
OHP 60kg 3x5
Repping ~1/2/3/4.. feels good, still DYEL tho
Dont deadlift
Squat 90kg
Bench 75kg
OHP 50kg
Deadlift 160kg
Squat 160kg
Bench 100kg
Ohp 75kg
Desdlift is the weakest but I don't train for it. I mainly do oly style training
Can i try 2pl8 1 rp if im able to do 80kg x 10 bench press?
>Can i try 2pl8 1 rp if im able to do 80kg x 10 bench press?
You can try anything you want, but by the time you're doing something for 10 reps there isn't necessarily that much carryover into a 1rm. The weight will feel heavy to you, you're not going to be used to the challenges of controlling near-maximal weights. Warm up and then work your way up in singles from 90kg or so, add 5 or 2.5kg at a time. If you can lift 80 for 10 then you have a very good chance of doing better than 2plate on your 1rm, just don't try to rush it and whack too much on the bar in one go otherwise you may well fail right away.
thanks my homie will try today
why the frick are my stats higher than everyone who posted so far. I've only been lifting for 8 months. frick me have I really wasted all this time arguing and taking advice with you people.
Been lifting for 8 months on and off.
This thread is full of people that usually lurk and felt like they could post given the OP.
Also you should take everything on here with a grain of salt ofc, there are a ton of DYELs giving "advice" as if they were actual experts because they spent more time watching fitness videos than actually working out.
>doesn't count the bar
Checked. Are you a woman or just very young?
Maybe because you're naturally buff dude in his mid 20's who have been physically active and played sports for most of his life and maybe started with 3 plate squat. I only started lifting at 28 having little to 0 physical activity for most of my life, and i don't have huge frame, so quite happy with what i achieve so far. I'm stronger than 2/3 of guys in every gym i've been to.
Don't be salty, "dyel advice" isn't for you, people who can add weights every week on every exercise don't need no advice, generally speaking. Should've figured it out sooner.
Been lifting for 2 months, 5'6 62kg
DL 50kg 2x5
Bench 15kg 4x5
OHP 5kg 3x8-12
Don't squat
How bad is this? I feel like it's extremely hard for me to add weight to OHP so I always end up doing more reps instead.
Lifting for 11 weeks now.
>Squat 210lb / 95.25kg
>OHP 80lb / 36.29 kg
>Bench 125 lb / 56.7 kg
>Deadlift 240 lb / 108.86 kg
>Power Clean 90 lb / 40.82 kg
Are these numbers okay or no
