>there are people on fit right now, that unironically truthfully with a straight face say "i cannot squat 315"
What the fuck are you doing in the gym? Curling?
No, I'm making progress towards being able to bench 315.
>>36517737
Can you squat 315?
>>36517744
Not yet.
>>36517753
>benching more than you can squat
fucking kek
>>36517758
Aight.
You know I'm trying, so that counts for something I go 5 days a week 3 days legs 2 days upper body, I try okay. Maybe one day I'll reach that but until I get there I'll be over here squatting away 155 lbs. While I bench 140 lbs.
>>36517781
You gonna make it brah.
>tfw squat and bench 60kg
I can't seem to squat more than 155. I get this heavy pressure on my knees so I keep it light to avoid snapping my shit up
>>36517781
Why not just so a full body routine 3 days a week
I have osteopesis from too high cortisol. I had back injuries since I was 18. Fuck you OP.
>>36517706
I can't squat 315
HOWEVER, I can dead lift it in the hex bar
>>36517737
>>36517753
>>36517763
nyyohh god high test
>>36517833
155 and you think your going to snap your knees?
>Please tell me that is kg and not lbs
>Otherwise you better be a girl
>If guy, fuck man your weaker then shit.
>Tfw only squatting 100lb (5x5)
Will I make it ?
>>36517867
Gotta start somewhere anon, keep at it.
>>36517781
Going to have to agree with >>36517841
You need to look into doing a full body routine so you can squat more and fix your imbalances, because you have a pretty serious one if you can almost bench as much as you squat.
>>36517867
As long as you are progressing that is what matters. If your maxing out at 5x5 that is pretty bad, I would recommend lowering to 3x5 and go heavier, but if your on a novice training phase, just keep working at it and adding weight.
How long should it take to reach 315 5x5 from 135 lbs 5x5? Assuming diet and sleep is on point.
>tfw just hit 365 squat
>tfw weak core so I won't be able to advance for a while now
Kill me.
>there are people on /fit/ right now who don't compete in Olympic/power or strongman lifting who actually care about their numbers
315 is my 1rm, full atg.
Don't kid yourself though. 315 is at least 60-70 percentile for lifters, it's not like its a common thing to see a full ROM good form squat w/3 plates.
6'2" 175lbs
180 binch
130 squat because gym doesn't have rack. Just bought one for home so leggo
300 1rm deadlier after a few months
>>36517892
Took me approx 7 months. I switched to a 3x5 once I started work in at 245.
>>36517915
This, left looks better, and who front squat mustardcase here?
>>36517945
>left looks better
So hows your hormone treatment coming along?
>>36517925
wat
>>36517923
Every dude squatting 3pl8s is jacked at my gym. Then you have the average /fit/izen quarter ROMing 3, when they should take a good 50-70 lbs off and fix their form. Dat ego tho
>>36517976
Deadlier = deadlift
>>36517971
I don't like stumpy midgets. Just date a SS manlet, faggot.
>>36517992
guess lanky skeletons with no ass is your thing then
>>36517915
Make those dudes and left is clearly superior. Where is your god now?
>>36518000
Yes, it is. U mad????????????????????
>>36517945
Front squat 3pl8 tho ;)
>>36518016
That's impressive. Post ass?
>>36517977
You've got it right man. These guys claiming 3pl8 working weight and up are the same dudes half ROMing at the gym.
To all you guys out there stuck in the 200's who come on here and read all the lmao3pl8 comments, don't be discouraged.
>>36518025
He's lying.
>>36518043
I know :^)
>>36518063
Tbh I'm not lying, but it's just bc I front squat a lot. My back squat is only 335
>>36518043
>>36518073
What ur bw? If you're not lying I want a current body pic b/c you must be beast mode. I have trouble front squatting 205 for reps @ 185 bw.
3pl8 is hella impressive if you're being truthful.
>>36518083
Lets see you at the bottom. Are you going atg or barely parallel?
Either way I stand corrected. Thats pretty impressive. Gratz.
>>36517706
I'll make it there, fuck you I WILL JUST ONE MORE FUCKING PLATE DAMNIT
>>36517887
No not maxing out, still increasing linearly with SL 5x5 I just posted it for comedic value
>>36518083
why do people wear shoes like that in the gym? not to mention outside the gym they're ugly as fuck
>>36518163
Flat soles
>>36518106
>Just one more fucking plate
>Just
wew.
>>36518103
>>36518163
What kinda shoes do you wear m8?
>>36517753
Hnnng is that you Cheekie?
>>36517977
I don't think squatting high is a characteristic of 4chan memers.
>>36517923
I'd say it's even higher than that.
That said, normies at the gym tend to not take it very seriously.
>>36518090
I'm 185 as well, 5 10 tall
>>36517706
>2016
>lifting babby weight
Ha. You are to make me laugh my freind
>tfw hit 460 squat at 190bw yesterday
>>36518849
Impressive. That bar positioning looks painful on the wrists.
>>36517706
>tfw knees cave on heavy squats
>>36517892
Took me about a year
>>36518849
Get some wl shoes man, your entire heel is off the floor.
>>36517706
Squatting is so dangerous though and everyone knows leg injuries are the worst
I front squatted 340 a couple weeks ago. It's really not that impressive Tbh
>>36519272
Eh it's not too bad
I hit 315 3x5 just after Halloween last year.
Except on the last rep of the last set, I did something to my hip on the way up and fucked my shit up.
I had to start from scratch again after taking over 2 months off of squatting. It still gets a little tender every so often.
>>36519333
Well not at your weight.
>>36519239
>tfw hit 190 squat at 460bw yesterday
i've been struggling with anything higher than 220lbs for a while but desu i haven't really been eating properly or sleeping well at all
>>36518998
Cool. So there is hope.
>>36519574
Shorter people are usually very good at squats, look at milko tokola.
>>36519592
Aye. I suffer from short torso/long leg syndrome, so while I love squats, my biomechanics betray me.
>>36519938
Long femurs are a meme
3 months in, working my way up to 2pl8. Sleep is the last problem I need to tackle. At 210 now, should only take 3 more weeks.
My right hip is fucked squats hurts like a bitch.
>>36518986
>weighs 315 lbs at least
>makes fun of normies who can't squat 3pl8s
>>36517706
Been training for over 3 years.
Got a 2plate squat and 3plate deadlift.
Some of us just don't have much aptitude for getting strong.
>tfw weak knees
>tfw i may never be able to squat 3plaet
i try man
>>36521248
This. I've got a small frame, long arms/legs, short torso. I'll never be really strong and I really don't care.
>>36521259
It feels implausible that some monsters can squat over 1000lbs and you can't even reach fucking 315 with years of dedication.
>>36517862
>I don't know how to greentext
>>36521248
Lmao some dudes on my rugby team could pull 315 the first time they set foot in a gym
Consider suicide, strengthlet
>>36522723
I've seen soccer players pull 220 first time in the gym, so 315 for rugby players doesn't seem too farfetched.
It's pretty hard to keep lifting eventhough I see many people making way better progress than me, eventhough I'm working out more and longer than they.
Makes me feel angry, but it also humbles me.
Maybe that's a good thing.
>>36522723
Bullllllllllshhhhhhiiiiiittttttt
>>36522781
Not this guy, but doing years of strength sports builds strength. Athletes just are more prepared for the movements.
>165 pound sprinter power cleaned 190 after two weeks at work the other day
>>36522781
I'm the guy he responded to, and I think it's probably not even bullshit.
Have you ever seen the legs of rugby players?
>>36522794
>after two weeks
Not immediately. I highly doubt anyone can pull 315 for the first time without seriously snapping some shit.
>>36517737
Why not both
tfw can't get past 117.5kg (259lbs) 3x5. Failed three times, already deloaded once.
I've only been lifting 5-6 months tho.
405 diddly
135 ohp
195 binch
285 squawk. I have more in me, but my torso is way too folded over. I don't feel comfortable adding weight until I can fix that.
>>36522807
if you grew up on a farm or have worked any manual labor job while eating properly, it's pretty fucking easy actually.
I pulled 275 my first day in the gym as a fucking SKELETOR.
>>36522807
athletes have much better body control than absolute beginners
>>36522821
405 diddy
205 binch
135 ohp
155 squat
M-master race?
>>36522844
>155 squat
kek
>>36522844
you literally stifflegging that deadlift
>>36522813
At least the rest of my lifts aren't too bad.
155kg (341lbs) Dead x 2 (Probably just a bad day, managed 150kg (330lbs) x 6 few days earlier)
91.2kg (200lbs) Bench x 5
OHP 58.7kg (129lbs) x 5, gonna hit lmao 1pl8 x 5 on monday.
>>36522875
Pretty much. I have really long arms and femurs with a Manley torso which means I'm forever weak.
used to be bench/curl bro and took me 3 years to even hit 205 for reps.
>>36522895
>58.7kg (129lbs)
wat
>>36522991
Got dem dere microplates my nigs
>>36517706
>>36523048
doesn't daily variance make that unusable?
on some lifts I need to adjust 5kg+ just to compensate daily strength variance
>>36517706
>tfw squatted lmao3pl8s finally last week
Fucking missed that 4pl8 deadlift but I'm proud of myself tBh
>>36523072
Haven't had real problems yet. I have noticed that sometimes it's easier to lift a weight that's heavier, but that's probably just the variance. Still managing to progress.
>>36523095
Okay, good to hear!
>Still managing to progress.
In the end, that's all that matters.
