I'm 6'4, bruh.
Fml. I just can't get my squat up. I stopped cutting for a few weeks just to get it up and just got fat instead of stronger.
>>34856758
What's your training like man? post your routine, calories, macronutrients, sleep, etc.
>>34856790
StrongLifts (switched to 3x5 on Squat). 2500 cals a day, 40% carbs, 30%, fats, 30% protein. 8 to 9 hours of sleep daily. Thinking about moving to MadCow as squat has stalled so bad but lifts so low still.
>>34856945
Forgot to ask, what's your squat and bodyweight? And how much has your bodyweight changed in the last month?
I think you should switch to another novice program. I always see guys having problems with SL 5x5 and stalling way too early. I think 5x5 is unnecessary volume for beginners.
Do something like this below at 3x5 except for the chins. Do them at 2-3 x 8 - 12 (add weight if you can do more than 12, but start slow).
D1
Bench
Squat
Chins
D2
Press
Deadlift
D3
Bench
Squat
Chins
Alternate the bench and press weekly

PS
you can add a squat on wednesday if you want.
I'm weak but least I'm s-symmetrical right guys
>>34855687
I need to git gud at the military press
>>34856569
Bring that bench up dude
>>34855687
The site is complete bullshit. Doesn't account for height, just weight...If someone is 6'6 250 or 5'6 250, they'll have different strength.
>>34857449
The numbers I put in for the bench are my floor press numbers. I don't bench as I can't fit on the bench at the gym and maintain tightness. But we are having another made, so will start benching soon. Floor press is much harder to increase as it's primarily tricep pressing strength, while the bench involves everything.

hello fellow green machine

>the strength imbalance is real
What website is this?
>>34859544
Read the thread faggot.
>tfw shit at squats
Currently working on form and mobility.
Been lifting about 6 months; 5'7 61kg. On a squat specialisation program atm and getting into weightlifting so hopefully will see some decent strength gains soon. Looking at getting a belt soon too so that might help.
>>34859796
What on earth are you doing a squat specialization program for when you've been lifting for 6 months? Just do a regular novice program and squat.
What website is this
>>34857500
yea but is the ratio between lifts right? i know you want to balance OHP, bench, and rows

>>34859855
I stalled on Candito's linear program and on SL5x5. I have an aggressive form of arthritis so it's much harder. I lose mobility very quickly and my medication is pretty heavy duty which interferes with recovery etc. but whatever I'm trying. Squatting 3x a week now rather than 2x and much lighter so I'm going to see how it goes. I think frequency is key (at least that was the case with my deadlift). There's not much info about people training with my specific condition so I just have to play around and see what works.
>>34860137
Well, your Wilks score is 215 and mine is 226, so I wouldn't necessarily say you're "lifting way more" than me. I know healthier women who have been lifting for the same period of time as me who can lift your weights quite easily with excellent form and ROM, who have a much higher Wilks score than you. But it must feel good to be able to lift more than a girl with arthritis; congratulations.
>>34860198
45kg = 100lbs. SI units are all that matter, friend.

Do you only squat like once a week? how long have you been squatting?

Fine for 3 months of lifting. Do your deadlifts though, they are IMO the best exercise for new lifters to add muscle everywhere
How to train face?
>>34860923
Yeah, definitely. I just don't like setting up for them in my ghetto gym cause there are only like 3 bars and not a lot of floorspace. I also feel like grip strength is starting to become a factor. Should I start using chalk? And when should I switch to a mixed grip?
>>34856408
It looks like the symmetrics of someone one who did a lot of bodyweight stuff
>>34860942
you have to smile
>>34860942
What are your lifts?
>>34856569
I'm exact same
>>34860622
83kg
Lifting 2 months after a break of 1 year from any kind of activity
tfw your bench is finally staring to go up
>>34856644
lol no you're not
>>34861003
Don't necessarily start out with chalk. You could try using a mixed grip to begin with and if that doesn't work, you could buy straps. (Since most commercial gyms aren't too fond of chalk.
>>34860621
Did calisthenics for 6 months and your upper body is still behind?
How?
5,10, 198lbs
Shoulderrate is low, because i do the Standing single handed Overhead Dumbell Press with 48lbs dumbells.
>nice progression
>lifts finally go up a rank
>weigh yourself on a scale and measure bf on the caliper

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>34864033
Don't bother putting the press then. DB press is never gonna be as strong as a BB press, so it's just gonna lack behind your other lifts forever.
