Why are my lifts such shit? My deadlift always go up but my other don't.

Deadlift: 325
Bench: 155
Ohp: 100

Lifting 8 months or so. Just eat more? I thought since deadlift goes up I'm eating enough and maybe I'm messing something else up.

>>36860753
what does deloading do exactly?

yesterday when benching first set I did 6 reps but failed the last rep, next set I did 5 reps and last set I did 3 reps

65kg bench, should I deload?
>>
>>36860669
How is your bench so shit vs your ohp?

Sounds like you're not resting long enough. 3-5min rest for low rep compound movements are normal.
>>
>>36860776
I do a six day ppl. Start each day with compunds 3x5 and then my accessories 3x8-12 three of my days are now chest, tris, and shoulders. They're spread out enough for recovery. I really want to get my bench up so I thought it'd help. I do two days back and bi's because my deadlift is already fine but I love that day. And one leg day
>>
>>36860776
Yeah what this duder said you gotta confuse ur muscles babe. Change it up.
>>
>>36860756
or reps
>>
>>36860669
That's a pretty good deadlift compared to your upper body lifts.
What's your routine like ? And your goal ?
I'm interested in your accessories exercises

>>36860788
Improve form and works your underused muscle. If you're plateauing ,chances are that you are "cheating" with half or 3/4 ROMs, so dealoading might fix your weak points. And there is the whole core thing in most compound things that deloading might help

>>36860817
They're my 1rm
>>
>>36860803
3 sets of 5? You need a lot more volume. do 4x8-12 or 5x5
>>
>>36860669
You will get there anon, have patience.

I have started deadlifting from 30lbs, took me a couple months to attain 90lbs.

Why do you hurt me like this

>>36860883
That's not such a bad routine ,at least as focusing of weak muscle through accessory exercises goes.

But dude you're working 6/7 days a week ,while it might work for legs ,your rotator cuff will suffer. A lot ,especially with all the pulls you're doing (unconsciously,with hammer or regular curls perfect biceps isolation is too inconsistent,so you tire your front delt quite a bit).

Remember that your shoulder is way weaker and more prone to injury than your hips or knee articulations .
You might want to put a day of rest between two push seances.
Like PsPlLexPsPlLex
Cuz now you have PlPsLePsPlPsx. ANd it's way too much on your CNS and your shoulder that's more active in pulls than you might think. I'd advise at least 3 days between each push days. That's 2 seance a week and enough imo
>>
>>36860669
Any time I start deadlifting again my squat suffers like fuck. Fuck deadlifting. I love it but it can go fuck itself.
>>
>>36861016
How do I go about deloading? I've heard I should up the volume and do 5x5 instead of 3x5 too
>>
Your OHP form is probably shit

I am a skele who cant even bench a pl8 but I can OHP as much as you for reps so you can probably do more especially if youve been building your lower back with deadlifts
>>
>>36861164
Well deloading is always a weird mechanism. You're used to load more smartly but not to unload in the same way.
First thing first i'd say get a spotter to push you through your reps. Don't hesitate.
And then ,like you said 5x5 at 90lbs may be better than your 3x5 at 100lbs. Because when training to lift more weight ,you should be wary of what you're having a problem with.
Do you have a problem with starting the rep ? Then it's mostly upper pectoralis muscle. Do more incline dumbell bench to compensate. When OHP ,you mostly compensate for that lack of strenght early in the reps by angles or push press but it only have so much impact when you hit heavier weight.

Just work on 5x5 ,while trying to calculate how you might get to the last rep without failing the last rep ,but without being able to make one more. It takes time and experience but gauging how you migjht faire is a valuable skill . If you don't have it just experience at lower weight and mark your progress or feeling to have some trace
