>Can barely crank out 34 kg OHP.
Should I just end it now.
3x5 97.5kg @ 80kg bw checking in :) hitting 98.5 in a few days, then 99.5 and and finally 100kg. (what's even more amazing is that I do 3x5 flat bench before doing OHP and I still progress with it)
you guys should stop doing 5x5 and/or sets of 10 for OHP
stick to 3 sets of 5, that's all.
>>36367183
Definitly
>>36367183

>tfw riding the gains train into summer
ohp stuck at 135 for fucking ever, been rising steadily. did 160 yesterday.
>>36366342
Bench is a basic lift so I've been doing that for many years i do 230lbs for 9 reps but ive only been doing ohp for a few months and i max out at 80lbs for about 7 or 8 reps.
This is what I have had good success with (3 reps, 5 sets). Lets say you were at 120lbs and you want to move to 125...
first, sets 1 through 5:
120 120 120 120 120
next time:
120 120 120 120 125
then:
120 125 120 125 120
then:
125 120 125 120 125
then:
120 125 125 125 125
then:
125 125 125 125 125
If you feel like you can handle it, skip one or two of the iterations, but generally this'll help get you past the problem of 5lbs on OHP being a relatively large jump in weight and can be hard to make the jump 5lbs just on a straight 3x5 stremph program
>>36367287
>stuck at 135 for fucking ever
>been rising steadily
Nigga what? Whatever the case, congrats on 160.
>>36367338
What do you compound this with? As in do you have a dedicated shoulder day, is this your main lift of the day and what do you do the day before and after.
>>36367345
eh...
i mean, i was stuck at 135 for a long time but recently started gaining again (mostly because i finished school and now have time to properly eat) i now realize my post was poorly worded and missing key portions of the story.
I'm a skelly and I can do 115
Why is this such a difficult workout for you faggots?
>>36367357
ohp for me will be on a day where i either DL or squat, and if its a DL day I also do forward/lateral DB raises OHP.
i dont have a solely-dedicated shoulder day. day before and after are bench. i alternate bench and OHP
>>36367405
>also do forward/lateral DB raises OHP.
also do forward/lateral DB raises after* OHP.
>>36367394
once you get through your noob gains itll slow down. getting up to 125 was cake and i started at like.. 75lbs. I go to an LA fitness and i rarely see anyone ohp anything more than 115, and very VERY rarely (like, maybe 6-7 times in 3 years) see anyone OHP more than 1pl8
>>36367166
Dubs of disgrace
>>36367405
Alright I'll give this method a shot, thanks anon.
Tfw 6'5 and can't lift 135 on bench but can easily press 110lbs
>>36366372
what about them? I love 'em.
>>36367220
made me audibly kek
>>36367394
cause they have week shoulders/arms
>>36367891
ur fuck'd m8
>>36367936
>week
meant weak. forgive my sins brothers,for I am intoxicated.
>>36367891
Jesus christ you're a weak ass bish
>>36366342 5 bucks says you're doing it wrong. press from front squat/clean rack position, not elbows pointed down. better leverage.
