Are you me?

What is this from?

As long as you keep working out, along with some cardio, you won't get fat. You're a naturally skinny person, we don't get fat like most people.

strengthstandards.co

>>34517936
you're really skinny bro. you're in a perfect place to start a bulk and get strong af

worst case is you you get slightly fatter than you like but then cut for a couple months and you'll be strong and lean

don't be me and spin your wheels for a year. go eat right now

>how to into bench

Make these changes, in some particular order:
>Do more lat work
>Bench more volume
>Bench more often
>Overhead Press (or other assistance movement)
>>

Lay work improves bench? How so?

>How so?
Balances all the pressing you do as a synergist.

Also, lats assist off the chest.

>Inb4 no.

>>34518065
i probably need to do these two

>Bench more volume
>Bench more often

benching just once a week with like 5 work sets atm

It all starts with being more honest with yourself.

If you bench 150 then you don't squat or DL that much weight.

The other way around, sure, but not a weak bench strong other lifts.

I see you as a quarter squatting, sumo-deadlifting, shit poster.

That being said, just watch a lot of videos and dial in your technique. Always work with a spotter and go heavy (1-2 reps) every week.

you think it's impossible to have a disproportionately strong lower body? only an upper?

the only stats you can diagnose quarter squatting on were if i said something like 320 squat 275 dead.

anyway my technique has been improving lately and benching has been feeling better. hopefully i'll start seeing the number go up. it's just been so frustrating bc it's been stalling around this point for literally half a year now

I used to have a worse balanced body when I used to do high jump during high school.

I used to squat 225 lbs, but bench only 95 lbs.

Are you rertarded? Not even on juice 1x a week is enough on that level. Without juice you can't expect to see any growth.
