Post body
t.
he looks like that basedboy from the tiktok webms lol
All that fat for a dang 385 squat

Ok. Now post your body
Your turn
Mr. peperoni in the house
OP here, I forgot to mention that I'm trans.

>the ability to lift things over your head is pointless
k moron
Is this counterculture backlash from all the posts decrying deadlifts as a pointless ego lift?
Pro tip for all the retads: pretty much all lifts can be a pointless ego lift if you do it right. Pair it with two other lifts and choose a random girl's name and now you've invented a new Crossfit event.
You don't get mogged by women... right chuds???
fricking hell i guess i do
What if I am the one on the bottom, fail to catch her, and her ass would land on my face. That would be funny, haha
I DONT CARE IF ITS AN EGO LIFT. Ive been lifting for over a year and still get gym anxiety but this one lift makes me FEEL POWERFUL.
Only drugs and videogames can make me feel this good otherwise

OHP
I love ego lifting tho?
185 or 205?
115 there's nothing on the other side
I mean I’ve done 180 before but didn’t record well for this one
I have the same PR, though it was a double lay back press. 185 (1.5pl8) will feel so good bros
I was just wisecrackin', bud.
Nice work.
Dude you're crazy. Your arms look like they are barely big enough to support that weight over your head, let alone rep it. But the simple fact that you could get the weight up to your forehead so explosively in the first place is even crazier since it means that your shoulders prolly had some left in the tank, just that your weak point, the triceps, kept you from doing so.
We gotta celebrate our differenceeees
OOGA BOOGA DOO OOGA BOOGA DOH
are you supposed to flare your elbows out like that? my arms basically go straight up, but i can't lift anywhere near what you can
that's a reddit meme, there's nothing wrong with flaring your elbows out. If you do, it uses all three heads of the deltoids
185 sadly. Hope to reach 200lbs this training cycle
Impressive, very nice. Let's see OP's overhead press
'Mirin. Much better than OP could ever do.
I got 155 for 4x3. I've never tried to max, but this looks fun.
Yeah it was
I’ll say the easiest thing as a beginner(your lifts indicate you are a beginner) is to follow an actual program and run it till your lifts plateau.
any tips on improving my ohp? i cant increase the weight at all and can only bench 25kg (counting the bar)
>can only ohp 25kg
fixed
Incline bench, lateral raises, rear lateral raises, arnold presses. Try a more narrow grip. Work your core, maybe you aren't stable enough.
Lol I'm exactly the same. My shoulders are absolute shite.
squeeze ur glutes, wear a belt over ur lower back region and learn to increase ur intra-abdominal pressure, also make sure ur elbows are in the right position: face forward and pointing down toward the ground underneath the wrists and barbell.
if u can lift fukk all don't you dare use a suicide (thumbless grip).
The squeeze the glutes thing gives me so much power for OHP.
I don't know why it works, but it does.
Gain weight
Of all the compound lifts this is least true for OHP. Don't know why a couple of spammers have latched onto it. Maybe because IST in general likes it. Bench would be much better suited for just gain weight shitposting.
It definitely applies to me because I have shit strength genes
I mean you have to eat and gain weight to build muscle period. Unless you have some disability/illness pretty much anyone can reach at least a 1pl8 OHP with proper diet, consistency and programming. If you want a 2pl8 that's a different story.
What is I want a 1.5 pl8 ohp?
Doable just going to take a lot more work and focus. If you intentionally work on and focus on OHP as a primary lift with a decent program I think a good portion of people can reach that. If you just do OHP as an accessory you're probably not going to get there unless you're gifted.
Wait… are you black??
Wait WHAAAAAAT
holy shit. haven't noticed before, now i can't unsee it.
HOLY SHIT YOU ARE RIGHT WTFFFFFF
God left me in the oven too long.
Thanks
Bro i think you stayed too long in the sun, be careful
Damn look at that impressive BBC imprint
Nice. Also OP is a homosexual.
From appearance, only thing you got left: Ego.
based ohp enjoyer
I don’t get it, this anon gets praise but when I post something similar people just call me a Black person
that guy looks like the Netflix version of the chud meme tbf you need to glassmaxx RIGHT NOW
Because he doesn't spam the board everyday. Also he looks like a dork which is probably relatable to a lot of people here.
Go be a nig somewhere else, we like urkel's posts
>blasts your shoulders
>impossible to turn into standing incline bench press
>no risk of tendinitis
nothing personnel, kid
Can this be achieved at home with olympic bar and tennis ball on one end? Then I can pl8 it and lift overhead dat way
Ceiling frame keeps me from OHP standing
Have to do it seated and it feels like cheating but I still get a pretty good shoulder pump
>Can this be achieved at home with olympic bar and tennis ball on one end? Then I can pl8 it and lift overhead dat way
If you prop it against a corner it probably will work.
>Ceiling frame keeps me from OHP standing
Same problem, this lets me do it standing which is a better full body exercise.
Switching to suicide grip makes this lift 10x better. I was on the verge of dropping it completely until I discovered this tip.
holy garbage grip, where did you get this picture lmao
i agree about using suicide grip. however, the guy in the picture is overdoing it, it's snap city for your wrists if u do like this
Take the logpill

Not doing the pic following instead for the reason that it's just more the natural way people would use a squat and ohp in the wild.
Its fun and a good lift but shouldnt be done year round... it incurs a ton of shoulder mileage. Lot of people frick themselves up on it. Best to uilitize lifts with less shoulder mileage to get stronger most of the time for longevity.
no it doesnt
?t=425
This is the same Black person that says dont do cardio. Hes a lazy fat frick.
I can’t do them without fricking my shoulders up
I never know the correct hand placement for this and it drives me crazy
I think my absolute max is 60kg is it good? tell me it is
I'm stuck on 50kg and can only do 3 reps before my shoulders give out. Frick this lift.
Doing them seated and high volume, like 5x8, makes them a great allround shoulder hypertrophy exercise. I do them at the start of my shoulder/arm days and than hit the different delts with isolations at the end.
Isn't seated dumbbell press much better?
