I'm currently doing SS, but I'm having really bad progress on the bench because of a delt/bicep/elbow injury.
I can currently only bench 35kg/75lbs for reps. ;_;
Yesterday I was warming up with just the bar and it hurt so much I downed a couple painkillers and took a 20min break before I continued with my workout.
I got this injury last December, so I took a 10 month break from lifting, and it still hurts.
What are some alternatives to the bench press so I don't become a chestlet?
Bump, coz I strained my pec too today
Idk, pretty much everything for chest is a variation of bench press.
Maybe inclined push ups and chest flyes?
You'd better see a doctor about your injury, maybe you broke something.
Have you guys tried press benching instead?
hi /fit how to get big muscle??

Anybody on fit training 6 days a week while being natty? Isn't that too much?
PPLPPLx
Thinking about doing this after my cut. Bumping for more knowledgeable people to answer.

>Isn't that too much?
says who?
training 3 days a week can easily be more stressful than training 6 days. it depends entirely on what you do those days.
So tell me, /fit/
Do you workout in the day or at night?
I workout whenever I feel like it
>>35158531
Yes.
>>35158556
No.
Nobody here actually believes this shit right?

I've gone overweight recently from eating too many carbs. So I said fuck it, I'll go on a low carb diet to shed that weight as well as upping the amount of exercise I'm doing.
But now people are telling me that a low carb diet cuts from muscle more than than from fat. Okay fine, firstly I know all this protein I'm eating should help muscle growth and also I think I'll just research this online and see what's said. Well I'm getting a lot of conflicting info on that end.
So I'm coming to you /fit/; the goal is simply this:...

stopped reading there
just drop your calories and fucking stick to the diet. if you like carbs, fine, eat carbs, if not, don't. makes no difference as long as amount of calories is adequate
>>35158421
Why not just try stuffing your piehole less in general, and moving around more? Its not fucking rocket science here. "I gained weight because carbs", no you gained weight because youre a fatass that doesn't take responsibility. Read the sticky or gtfo

I'm considering running Starting Strength for my bench press and overhead press.
Will pic related work?
I would like more volume for bench and press however I am afraid of stalling.
Would I stall doing pic related?
>>35158362
I might not be understanding you right, but would that be all you'd be doing? In that case, I'd give you 2 months and then you'll have an inflamed pec tendon, RC issues and elbow tendonitis
In any case you'd need both some kind of periodization (light-med-heavy days) and more variation in the lifts. Doing the same heavy (high intensity) compound lift (such as bench) more than twice a weeks is really not recommended
>>35158398
and where the fuck is leg day?
>>35158398
No this ain't all that I'm doing, this is just my plan for benchch and overhead progression.
I have a different plan for squat and deadlift progression.
I do not feel as if I need periodisation as my bench and overhead press are at a novice level.
I was wondering if I were to run Starting strength for my bench and overhead press would those accessories as seen in pic related stall or hurt progress in any way?
I had a problem once before with not enough volume in SS and I want to be sure...

Thoughts on his strength?
He lifted 500+ lbs on his shoulder then pushed it off like it was nothing? Is he genetically inclined to be this strong and its enhanced by the roids? Or is it all roids? Discuss.
>>35158176
Of course it's both.
If you think Lesnar is "all roids" I don't know what to tell you bro, he is a literal freak of nature. He would be even without them, he was throwing around motherfuckers like nothing as a skelly amateur wrestler in his teens.
>>35158176
The guy's like 300 lbs of muscle
Is there anything worse for you than a calzone?
Why do my fat friends think this is an acceptable and balanced dinner, especially with a side of pasta?
Fucking Delicious m8
ive never seen anyone eat any side with a calzone. to be fair im in germany not in fattyland
>>35158056
Fast food in general is not good
Be me

Is he challenging me? Did he do some squats last and strain so much he shit?
He's 178lb Great Pyr/St Bernard mix.
Getting a dog was the worst mistake of my life.

Why do you guys claim to want to help each other make it but every other thread you just make each other feel bad and insecure about themselves? You've got anons who are average height and dick length crying thinking they're manlets with tiny dicks, that's not very nice or helpful
