Are you the strongest guy in your gym aswell /fit/?
>deadlift only 25 lbs more than squat
Kek whats wrong with your back dude
>>36044784
>deadlift
>back exercise
Deadlift is primarily a leg exercise you mong.
What kind of shitty gyms do you go to?
I squat 247.5kg, bench 180kg, and deadlift 310kg, and have never been the strongest at any gym I've been a member at.
>>36044759
>300 lb squat
>315 deadlift
>not even near the strongest lifter
How the fuck are you the strongest lifter with those lifts?
>>36044784
>deadlift
>back exercise
look >>36044800
prime function is hip extension -> glutes and hamstrings as prime movers
>>36044759
Op confirmed planet fitness faggot
>>36044807
Dunno. Funny thing is I'm only lifting since last summer and outlift everyone there already... Everyone is doing dumbell and machine bullshit.
The squatrack is always empty
The cardiobunnies are hot though
>>36044800
Depends solely on the ratio of your femur to your torso. Everyone of us has different lever arms and thus will use different muscles in different lifts.
IE: long legs/short torso means more back involved in the DL. Short legs/long torso means more leg involvement.
365lbs deadlift
365lbs squat
300lbs bench
Not even close to the strongest guys in my gym
>>36044759
I'm impressed if you aren't counting the bar
And the last 3 plates on each side.
>>36044847
It doesn't change the fact the primary movers for the the deadlift are hamstrings and glutes, the secondary movers are your quads, and the spinal erectors act as a stabilizer.
>>36044759
My lifts are literally double yours and I am far from the strongest in my gym
>>36044856
What kind of gyms do you guys go to? I'm not the strongest in my gym, but I'm up there and I'm not much stronger than OP. Ive never seen anyone dead lift or squat more than 350lbs. There are two guys I see that bench more than 300 but they both have shit form so it doesn't count.
>>36044759
>hit 308 bench for two singles this monday
>squat 4pl8
>deadlift 450 with perfect form and a controlled negative for two.
>OHP 180 for a set of 4
>still not even close to being the strongest guy in my gym
You know you've found home when huge guys bench pressing 5pl8 doesn't even raise eyebrows and I fully expect at least a double.
>>36044879
I go to the ymca, there's guys there benching 405 and repping 365. And dead lifting around 600
if the difference between your deadlift and squat weights is less than 0.5plate then you have some sort of muscle imbalance. fix it before you become a t-rex.
>>36044869
Actually it does, but its not extreme, obviously all those muscles are used. My legs are long so I keep my hips high on my dl. This means I use less of my quads and hams and more of my glutes and back. Someone with shorts legs would start the lift with their butts much lower and would recruit much more of their hams and quads than I do and they would use less of their back.
>>36044903
I'm at a YMCA as well. I guess we're all pussies where I come from.
>>36044879
OP here. I guess a lot of anons on /fit/ are going to powerlifting kind of gyms since they are redpilled on free weights and barbells while most of commercial gyms are only offering machines and other bad equipment...
I'm going to a commercial gym that happens to have 2 squatracks and one lifting platform. But there is probably 3 guys in total using these with proper exercises...
I've seen people doing hammercurls on the fucking lifting platform reeeee
>>36044759
200kg squat, 220 kg deadlift, 140kg bench, so no. There's a guy here who benches 220kg.
>>36044759
Wtf?? Do you go to planet fitness when there's only the soccer mom and geriatric crowd? How the fuck are you the strongest in your gym with those lifts?
>>36044929
You're a retard.
>>36044968
Dammit dammit dammit...replied before I realized this was b8. Hats off sir, you got me.

>>36045021
>>36045043
Ye sorry forgot to type squat
Nah senpai atg no belt to be fair I've been lifting for like two years so it's not that impressive
>>36044879
>What kind of gyms do you guys go to?
The first gym I went to was a commercial gym, set up by some suddenly-rich housewife, who hired the best help she could think of.
So the PTs were a kick boxing dietician, a shot putter, strongman and certified athletics coach and also a guy who just looked like a male underwear model with big legs, who also had some kind of certs and academic background.
The shot putter/strongman benched 450 and repped out 500 on deadlifts.
The second, and current gym was an old bodybuilder-turned-powerlifter's life dream, so it's basicly 3 power cages, 4 benches plus incline and decline and enough machines to get everything done.
His friend is a bench press only guy who benches in raw meets more than double bodyweight. And he's 307.
Also, everybody who's on gear is open about it and friendly as fuck.
>>36045043
one-handed underwater overhead press
being the strongest guy in the gym is bad for progress.
>>36044759
In my gym there's a woman benching lmao2plates. Looks pretty small also, about 5'5. Too bad shes over 40 and doesnt squat.
>>36044784
Hes obv a manlet. My squat is 205 and my dead 295
>>36044807

Speaking of mong, what happened to the mong himself? Did he kill himself and i missed it?
>>36045057

>>36045276
>top powerlifter in sweden
must be a babby weightclass if so, at least 2 dudes squatting 700+ lbs at my gym in sweeden
OP stop lifting at PF you fag.
>>36044931
You don't understand, you don't use your back to actually move the bar unless you catback your deadlifts.
>>36044759
Squat 165 kg dl 195 bench 114 still not strongest by longshot
>>36044759
I have a 3 time world champion as my mentor. Not sure if I'll ever be as strong as him. It's kind of funny. Other people beg him for advice, and he just talks to me openly man to man and gives me general life advice. I'll take that advice. He also owns a multi-million dollar finance company. I've met some cool motherfuckers in the past year
>255 lbs squat
>280 lbs deadlift
>I'm the strongest guy in my gym
What kind of pussy ass gym are you going to Op? I Squat 450lbs and Deadlift 350lbs and I'm one of the smaller guys at my gym.

>Just achieved 2 pl8 1rm on squat
>Ive never seen nobody squat so much in my gym
>Im making it
What kind of DYEL gym do you go to OP? My buddy is at 355/705/715, hes the strongest motherfucker in my gym, and holds the state record in his weight class for deadlift and squats, raw.
>185lb squat and diddy

>245 bench
>335 squat

>>36046720
>>can do two pull ups
What do you weigh?
My lifts are basically yours but with 135 squat/diddy (just started them a month ago), but I can still do like 7-8 pullups fairly easily (skeleton)
Can't tell if everyone is a filthy half or quarter squatter in this thread or not..
>>36046890
5'8 175. I'm slight T-Rex manlet mode.
>>36046946
Also according to my fat caliper tests, I'm 18%bf
>>36046226
>a dude

>>36044759
>255 squat, 285 DL
>strong
Pick one
>>36044759
>>36044759
i know this is controversial but i've been to 2 gyms and both never had any really big guys, either average builds benching 225 or skinny asian manlets trying to bench the bar
My 385lb for 5 reps deadlift is the heaviest dead I've seen at my gym, but one of the employees told me they've seen more.
And I've seen people squat more than 345lbs too.
But I'm among the stronger people.
Though my 205lb bench is crap by comparison and I see people do more all the time.
>>36044759
>tfw 275lb bench, not even one rep max... Feels pretty good after plataeuing on 185x3 for more than a year...
Eating big really does lead to direct strength gains...
Not even close to strongest bro at the gym tho... :(
