My bench press is the same as my squat

Is this normal?

Been on pic related for 4 months now. Had to deload squat once when I got to 170 lbs. Bench press nevery deloaded or failed rn I'm at 170lbs.

Is it my form fit?

This my second time trying 170 lbs after I deloaded.

correct your form. It looks like you are about to fall backwards before you descend straight down.

your form could definitely improve.

>push your knees out more and sit down between your legs, not back like you do
>get your hands closer on the bar and get your entire back and core tighter
>brace better, bigger breath of air. inflate your abdominals, obliques, spinal erectors, you need 360 degrees of bracing
>fix your gaze on a object 5-10 meters in front of you around chest/eye level, not on the ground

I'm low bar squatting bro

>>36474268
Do high bar you fucking useless turd
>>
Stop looking down when you squat.
>>
If you are low bar squatting you should not have your knees track forward so much. As Ed Coan said, "Open up your taint."

It also looks like you are putting the weight on your toes too, cut that shit out.

Don't feel bad OP, my bench is actually substantially higher than my squat.

Hell, yesterday, I was ALMOST able to 1RM OHP what I work out with on squats. It was going up, I just couldn't lock it out.

what the fuck, did you have a leg injury or something?
>>
Tall fags seems to have a harder time with legs lifts because of proportion. Starting 190cm(6'3") you may find disproportion between your legs and arms size.

However you seem normal sized enough (5'10-6'1) so that's probably just that you only do squats while you work you upper body much more than your lower body. Your form seems okayish. Definitely not awful but needs works on it

I do 5x5 I don't have accessories for legs since I squat 3x a week.

That movement doesn't look natural, bruv. Correct it, you can change the squat type.
>>
well at least your'e not at 145 at bench for 6 fucking months
>>
>>36475010
I can't lift as much high bar
>>
>>36474192
Don't stick your butt out and put weight on your heels.

Also set your fucking ego aside man.
