post proof faggot
>>
>>36709627
not everyone is a weak cunt like you

120 for 2 is actually very possible at a high bodyweight

if he weighs 60kg then yeah its hard to believe
>>
>>36709591

This is a straw man fallacy. You're not attacking my argument but giving the illusion by attacking an argument you erected.

please answer>>36709642
also any tips for better OHP?
>>
>>36709581
They're two completely different exercises. You might as well argue that bent over rows are a variation of pull ups.
>>
>>36709719
Been lifting for almost 8 years lad.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dY-JxWOhby8

My best advice is just keep going. Don't forget to get strong. Even if your form isn't perfect, don't get caught up in trying to have the most beautiful press, just keep pressing and don't forget to have strong.
Obviously if your form poses an injury risk the correct it, but other than that just stop messing around and be patient
>>
>>36709719
Forgot to mention that the best accessorie is pressing more. A bigger muscle is a stronger muscle.

>>36709989
that is a power manlet though, shorter arms are at a relative advantage

also fuck that cherrypicking, 150+ kg bench is strong no matter what
>>
>>36709643
you shook like a virgin in a ttitty bar
fantastic lift m8

>tfw 80kg ohp
i feel like i'm never gonna clock 2pl8s
>>
>>36709721
pullups are a variation of the row you mong
>>
>>36710025
>muh longer limbs
can he lift it or not

the longer limb excuse is the biggest lanklet excuse of all time, you might have bigger limbs but you also have bigger muscles to support it

so fuck your bitchass im just saying at 135kg bodyweight you should be stronger, theres even a guy at my gym and benches 160kg at 80kg and he hasnt been even lifting for that long
>>
>>36710109
You obviously dont have a good understand of leverages. Skeletal size determines muscle mass, however you can be 6'5 and still have bitch boy 6" wrists.

The power lifter in the video is able to overload his bench press by reducing his range of motion, which is fair game in the rules of his sport, however OP is doing CLOSE GRIP and his wingspan is above average. Despite being bigger he's at a leverage disadvantage which is far harder.

Moving an object less distance is easier than getting really big and really strong. It also takes longer so the excuse that they e power lifter hasn't been lifting as long is ad hominem. It doesn't matter.
>>
>>36710159
Don't waste your time lad. People that still don't understand these things are just willfully ignorant.
>>
Did bw (80kg) for two a few days ago
>>
>>36710159
wouldnt call anons grip close grip though, just looked like a normal grip to me
>>
>>36710285
It is a close grip for his skeletal structure.

Was the first thing I saw after clicking the pic. Now I turned gay.
