keep going with strict, controlled form and keep your body properly fueled/rested. it's not about numbers; it's about progress.

>DL 4pl8
>Skwat 3pl8

Drumroll....
>Binch: 185

>>37732572
But it's embarrassing
>>37732592

>>37732586
m8 im new to lifting but im afraid ill end up in the same place.
>dead: 235
>squat: 185
>ohp: 90
>bench: 120....
how to stop bench being a shit?
>>37732492
tfw bench 1RM is 120kg while dl 1RM is 140kg
>>37732492
It doesn't matter how much you pull. Stop comparing yourself to others. Before you know it you'll blow past 2 pl8 and then onto 3. This takes training, time, and proper dieting to get where you want. Don't be discouraged, we're all gonna make it
>>37732492
>struggling to get 115lbs on 5x5 squats
What am I even doing?
>>37732592
LITERALLY nobody cares. It's either stopping now and being a miserable waste, or progressing until you reach your goal.
>>37732702
>>37732717
True guys
I guess it's only my 6th time even doing the lift so it's not bad?
>>37732717
mixed grip or double overhand for beginners
>tfw recovering skelly just beginning to lift
>only bench 40lbs and the max weight I can take on arm workouts are 40lbs
>back workouts at 70lbs
I feel so weak compared to everyone else desu
who gives a fuck what the numbers are, keep at it and slowly ad more weight and stop being a bitch
>>37732785
Man, I remember when I was in your position. It was the most satisfying phase of my lifting "career". Every extra rep, every 5lbs I added felt like a huge success. Just keep going and enjoy your gains.
>>37732492
Stay motivated man, The number on the plates are not important, you want to be better than your former self, not others.
My stats (bar included, 4X8):
>> DL: 176lbs (80kg)
>> Squat: 209 (95kg)
>> Bench (Dumbbells): 70.4lbs each (32 Kg)
>> 25 y/o 5'11 (1m80)
>>37732617
>OHP 120
>bench 150
how the fuck did this happen
to make things even better, my left pec is twice the fucking size of my right one even though I'm right handed
>>37732492
Just
Lift
More
Often
>>37732785
Don't worry about that, I started when my body consisted of only fat and nothing else, I could do any exercise with the empty bar at best at first..
Doing squats and deads at 265lbs now and making steady progress.
>>37732492
>been lifting for 4 months
>max DL is 115kg
>>37734414
Maybe if you didn't waste work outs by going for shit-tier 1RMs
>>37734445
I dont
I just add 2.5kg each week and then one week I went for 115kg and only got 2 reps
>>37732492
Lbs or kg?
I'm slowly working my way back up to 130kg again, I'm at 115 right now.
>>37732617
>>37732586
Push-ups and dips do wonders.
i hit that number after 4 months and dgaf, just keep progressing and be happy
>>37733452
1m80 < 5'11
I'm sorry
Never compare yourself to others, only to yourself. If you lift more than the previous workout, you've succeeded. And who cares how long it takes? The time passes anyway and anything worth doing takes a lot of time and effort. Enjoy the ride big guy.

Non U.S. here, I always used this one

>6th time deadlifting
shut the fuck up and keep lifting.
I have been struck at 130 kg for a month now
Whenever I try heavier weights, I feel sharp pain
from my bones. Is it possible to surpass that
limitation?
>>37732785
Sam boat bruh. 5 pounds at a time. We're gonna make it.
>>37734251
Also
Eat
Enough
Food
Just start lower and add 5 pounds every lift. You'll get to the big plates eventually.
I deadlift 250 before I switched to stronglifts. It's better for your body to slowly climb.
>doing stronglifts for 6 months
>squat only 74kg
>>37732766
No it is bad but that doesn't matter because it's going to get better. That's what everybody is telling you so shut the fuck up about and get back to lifting, eating, and sleeping because that's the only way anything changes
>>37738305
Thanks lad
My creatine just came in, that should help, shouldn't it?
>>37739747
have fun balding
>>37734458
You can add like 10kg per workout to your deadlift as a beginner m8. My mate pulled 100kg after a month of lifting.
>>37737898
How is that even possible
>>37739796
I'm already bald as it is
>>37739847
I don't know, I'm weak but the squat is my worst lift by far, I can bench more than I squat
>can bench 200lbs+ for reps
>can OHP 140lbs for reps
>can't DL 295lbs for even a clean single
who /upperbody4days/ here?
