Am I just too low T to get IST?

        Usually. I used to work at a movie theater and the men would often wipe down the sinks after they washed their hands whereas the women's bathroom I heard plenty of horror stories from, like tampons stuck to the ceiling and blood art in the stalls.
        Worst I ever saw in the men's was a couple shitting disasters, which looked entirely involuntary.

      practice you have like pull and spread to just the right way and you'll get a steady stream if you pull too wide or too hard you'll narrow it to a slit and it'll fan spray.

      77kg 6'.

      There are people who START OFF benching heavier than this.
      >Depending on how much you weigh
      I thought how much you could lift just scaled with your bodyweight?

        Don't believe everything you hear on IST lots of people start with the bar or 95 and barely make it past 1pl8. I'd say you're doing pretty good if you never lifted before 6 months ago.l

          1pl8 is average for people who've never even trained bench, don't lie to the dude. Average for a lifter is 217lbs, he's not doing terrible for 6 months but has a long way to go.

            The 217 number isn't a normal sample of gym goers, it's from strength level website users

    Well how much you started at? What routine are you following?

    • 1 year ago
      Anonymous

      Can't remember. 50kg probably? Probably less than that but I reached that within like the first week or two, and then slowly went up from there.

      My routine is just doing push/pull alternating days every day. For bench pressing in particular, I do warm-ups with lighter weights, than 5x5 with whatever weight I max out with (so currently 75kg), and then I go down by 5-10kg and do a few high rep sets for volume.

        Well that's the problem, your "routine" is extremely moronic and so are you, 50 to 75kg you only added 15 kg in 6 months, following a real routine that would only take you a little bit more than a month

        And doing just pull push every day doesn't really give you room for resting your muscles, just follow metallicadpa ppl and read the sticky and stop trying to reinvent the wheel

          Correction because I don't know math:

          You added 25kg in 6 months, following a real routine that would only take you around two and a half months

          >pull push every day
          I'm not. I'm doing them on alternating days, so there's a day of rest for each muscle group.

        Stick with your current program OP. Get better at it. Do it more efficiently. Eat right. No one program is the best. Also that Greyskull thing wants you to do 3 chinups per set lol wtf.
