      Depends on your training goals obviously and genetics. His numbers are probably above average in the typical gym though.

      Lol, I beat all his maxes with like, 2 years of natty lifting.

      Hell, in 2022, after being sedentary as frick for a year because of COVID, I went on internship way up north for 3 months. Since the pop was not dense, they didn't give a frick. I went hard at the gym 5-6 days a week because I was bored.

      My deadlift went from 225 lbs for a 1RM to 585 lbs for a 1RM. Took a few weeks to get back into the groove and learn my form and shit again, but that took no time at all.

      How the frick do you train for 10 years and have frick-all to show for it? If you're goal is to maintain and be healthy, that's fine. But this dude claims to be seeking gains for 10 years. What a chump.

      As other guys said this isn't bad but it is for lifting 10 years. I hit higher than these numbers within a year in high school and I was 190. Maybe he didn't lift or play sports when young and he has kinda low t and didn't develop the body for it when growing?

      He trains like an idiot, wastes a shit ton of time in the gym hoping that the prostitute in bawdwear at his gym will approach him, and idolizes unachievable bodytypes (only achievable with roiding manlets). I know how redditors are; he probably spends close to 20 hours a week in the gym. If you just stop training like a moron, it's like 3 hours a week to look better than 99% of men on the planet. Not just novice gains; your whole lifting career only needs that much training in a week.

      Strength goals are a meme, but any male can do better numbers than that. I'm super estrogenic, and I did more than that in 3–4 months on an SS ripoff. He probably did PPL on Reddit (I guarantee you he does PPL), so he makes no gains because there is no recovery.

      I hate Rippetoe as much as the next guy, but if 140-pound twinks didn't keep acting like crabs and dragging people over to their own ineffective gym programs, this wouldn't happen so much.

          Sunday off for Sabbath is not enough recovery after 6 days of nonstop lifting and their routines are usually hours long because they need to hit that imaginary 20 set goal. You have some emotional issue that requires you to go to the gym every day? Do a brosplit.

        >Low intensity shitters are a cancer
        IST can't even decide what's the reason for him being dyel. Meanwhile half the fitness community is like "just lift bro", because they can do just that and get mad gains while drinking a shit load of alcohol and staying up til 3 partying. Genetics aren't real though.

    unless he was talking about 70 to 80 year old range, absolutely not
    If he is really bulking and cutting I'd have two guesses:
    1. He is extremely low bodyfat, he might have the wrong bodyfat number sold by roided youtubers. Naturals don't really build much muscle under a certain threshold, your body gives a higher priority to rebuild your fat reserves than building muscule if you are too lean
    2. Simply not training hard enough. Maybe he got sold a moronic lie on super low or super high volume

    Don't know why people are so quick to dismiss genetics as a possibility for heavily limited potential when it comes to lifting. There can be a range of moronic to genius for intellect, there can be a range of 5'2 manlet to 6'4 gigachad for height, but apparently there's miniscule if any range for lifting genetic potential. Is it just so you can be holier than thou about how you totally put in more effort and totally know more about lifting than the poor GDE?

    There are definitely suboptimal things people do at the gym but if you're putting in a solid hour of effort 3-5 times a week, keeping track of your calories/macros, and using a program with progressive overload, none of the other minutiae should matter and genetics is all that's left. All this
    >ak-akshually
    posting about how some minor detail in someone's training is totally why they're not making gains is moronic. Genetics are real, the Chad eats pizza meme is true, you play with the hand you are dealt but don't begrudge people venting how shit their hand is while they're playing it.

      because if he just had awful genetics he wouldn't look the same, he would've gone from looking like an auschwitz victim to about average. You can't have normal muscle growth when you're not lifting and then suddenly be dysgenic once you start.
      I don't know why being a loser being out of your control is a comforting thought to you but it's just not the case.

      Because we need proof of genetics being a substantial limit. OP pic guy LITERALLY never did progressive overload. After ten years he's only doing a 235 bench as a 1RM, when he should be doing it for reps easily.

            The first 4 years of lifting I had no idea what I was doing and neglected legs severely. Would pretty much just do lifts that I found fun like curls, bench, DB press. Didnt really hit every muscle probably developped mad imbalances.
