That was a beautiful lift.
>>37499319
Do cardio, fuck what these guys say it helps so much
>>37499606
I'm gonna learn them
when I've lost weight, a lot of weight
>>37499578
not really, that's around where linear gains end, which is way past where 90% of the gym going population is
>>37499624
Cardio is the reason my calves and thighs are like 4 times bigger and stronger than the beefcakes at the gym that can lift way more than me. Got baby calves anyone? The no cardio meme is why.

Ok so you are new to fit then. That website is posted weekly.
>>37500126
Right, I was the one who said olympic style lifts are cool though
My only regret is that I didn't start lifting earlier
>>37500151
Well its never to late just dont make it so obvious. Lurk more and post less.
Hello darkness my old friend
>>37500317
Strongest lift? Squatz?
>tfw 1 year lifting
>>37500370
Bullshit.
>>37500362
Nah, deadlift, I think.
Squat is like 200 max, deadlift is 275ish
>>37500402
Is that what trained your obliques and electors? Nice. I'm always afraid of fucking my shit up with the deadlifts
>>37500370
give us ur stats also
>>37500412
I think obliques at least were mostly trained from doing sit ups on an incline bench with a plate at my chest, and pivoting side to side at the top of the rep.
Not gonna lie, my deadlift form is shit, but somehow I haven't hurt myself yet
>>37500441
do do deadlift you nigger then
first fucking fix ur position and form, keep shoulderblades together, lumbar lordosis
>>37500477
fix your squat form too. If you can't do a good rep ATG your flexibility is going to injure you eventually
Been lifting for 5 months
>>37500383
Am i too weak?
Squat: 205
Deadlift: 235
Bench: 150
OHP: 90
All of them @ 6 reps
>>37499806
>caring about calves
Kek
>>37500530
few ppl can squat atg especially with higher weight, you should focus on keeping back straight,knees out, butt wink is propably going to happen unless its severe its ok, but still stretch hamstrings to counter it
>>37500573
i would think your deadlift would be a bit higher, but weakness is relative. how long have you been lifting? height, weight, age?
>>37499806
calves are genetics, unless you roid you end up with what you have most of the time, besides growing calves accualy makes them less explosive and usefull see olympic weightlifters they can jump rly hight and have small calves
>>37500573
Fucking tiny manlets
I bench for reps what you deadlift for reps and I just turned proficient.
>>37500658
>how long have you been lifting?
A little bit more than a year, but I fucked up by not adding weight every workout.
>height, weight, age?
5'6
139lbs, not sure
19
>>37500677
do you want a cookie or something?
>>37500701
i'd say those are still good stats given your weight. do you work with fractional plates now? it helped me add weight to my ohp every workout
>>37500677
yeah but after a while they hit plateu and getting bigger wont do anything for them, for 6"+ ppl getting bigger like 90kg+ will make you hit nubers manlets will never achive
>>37500677
Thats pretty good i guess
>>37500748
Nah, instead of doing 3x5, I did 3x8-10 with less weight.
It helped me a lot
>>37500585
don't worry too much about your babby calves, anon.. high socks will be in fashion for at least another 3 months
>>37499806
Delts are the only muscle that matter anon. Everything else is secondary.
>>37500945
I wasn't going to post mine
I've been doing 5x5 and never once tried a max set. I think even if I did I'd still suck. Been lifting for one month.

>>37505134
Thank you hungry skeleton.
>>37499551
kill yourself
>>37499697
No it's fucking not.
You should be reaching high intermediate/proficient at the end of SS.
Low "intermediate" would be a fucking pathetic result.
According to symmetric strength, 75kg Bench for 5 was intermediate for me; on SS I reached 92.5kg for five.
If you're stalling at low "intermediate", eat more calories.
Decent for someone who has been lifting for 4 months
Three years of lifting, kill me

I'm too DYEL. 2pl8 squat would let me ride the gains train to snap city.
>>37506163
Are you saying it isn't novice?
2plate squat is nothing unless you weigh like 60kg
>>37499806
You just have good genetics.
>>37507511
1rm is novice
5rm is intermediate according to site
For a 190lb male
>>37507756
Symmetric Strength is very kind when it comes to ranking lifts
When it says intermediate, it means a strength training novice
intermediate is more in the (120-150kg)x5 region
>>37507799
I was wondering why I'm 13 weeks in and already intermediate on most lifts haha
Also checked
>tfw 6 months of lifting and still shit at bench press
>>37502328
>>37499319
>8 months lifting
>its all novice
what a fucking dyel
>>37501795
how long have you been lifting?
I know I sound like a dyel but yours is kind of my goal body
The thing about symmetricstrength is it asks for your total weight but not your body fat percentage. Fatties are at a big disadvantage.
>>37499319
>tfw there's actually a red mark
>>37505922
>>37509709
In that pic I was probably 155lbs
At 5'9
260 bench
160 OHP
100x4 chin ups
375 dead
350 squat but I don't back squat anymore
In that pic I just finished lifting so I had a pump so my arms were 15" pumped 14.5" cold
Chest is 43" cold
But my waist is 29" because I started as a 110lb skinny DYEL so my frame is really small.
Let me know if you want more specific stats
>>37510279
Also I'd been lifting consistently for probably 2 years but off and on for 4 years - so it's hard to say "how long" I've been lifting, starting from DYEL you can easily achieve that body in 2 years or less, because I was lazy for a long time
This is a back shot from 6mo ago
Not that bad
I am a 48-year-old but i have been lifting since i was 17

A good quality Olympic (main lifts) style bar by itself is 45 lbs

https://symmetricstrength.com/calculator/tdee
what the fuck is wrong with their TDEE calculator? Im a 135lbs manlet and it says i need to eat 3500 cals just to maintain. Im guessing they want people to get fat so they can milk money off of them by selling meme fat burners and supplements.

goals before the end of the month are
100kg deadlift
80kg squat
60kg bench
40kg OHP
when i started it was a struggle to deadlift 60kg and chinups have been holding me back - if there's any chinup/pullup noobs here like me i highly recommend scooby's pullup guide

one question, do you measure your arm at rest?
I mean, my arm is 13 and something while flexing the bicep, and 12ish at total rest.
also your weight and high make me think what I thought would be just a quick cut might be more.
I'm 6'1'' and 185.
But it's ok, I'm a 4months noob
BP 154, DL 200, ohp 100
I hope I will have something to show for this work in one year
>>37519873
congrats anon, keep up the good work
>>37520146
you measure the arm while flexed, without a pump, while it is still as flat as possible.
>>37519990
Not everyone wants to involve momentum lifts, anon.
Looking to bring the Intermediates to Proficient, the Proficient parts to Advanced, and the Advanced parts to Exceptional in the next few months, which should place me at/near 1/2/4, then I'll work on the 3.
Maybe you guys can help me. I'm not sure if I just have really week hamstrings or am not able to build the proper mind to muscle connection. I have been training HARD for the past 6 months my current lifts are as follows:
squat-315
DL-315
bench-205
OHP-135x3 (mostly use as an assistance)
I'm not entirely sure why my DL is so lacking I feel as if it must be form but when I get someone to form check me im all good. pretty much my DL progress has been on par with my back squat progress and I feel as if it should be way higher any tips or even anecdotal experience would be much appreciated.
>>37520951
Also something I should add, i'm definitely hitting depth on my squats as I train ATG only high bar and low bar

>>37521709
Taller people will be naturally heavier regardless of strength so yeah it does kinda favour manlets. Which is fine powerlifting isn't really ideal for tall guys I suppose.
Anybody else get spooked by this thread?
been lifting for a month now, but before that i was close to going pro rowing, so far i haven't tried squatting hard but this got me curious
>>37523180
also if I cut the 7 kg i gained while preparing finals, legs go novice and obliques go intermediate too, so i'll try to make it actually look that way in not too long

This is why most of the stats are fucked up. The age, and weight are what matters. Most of you friends here are searching for a validation, a pat on the back for spending hard time in the gym, when actually you get shit results.
