I'm confused.
I've been lifting for a month, took a week break because of a neck injury, and now I went back. My bench before the injury was 60kg, today I tried 62.5kg and failed ( only managed 3 rep sets ), so I searched if people usually fail at that weight when starting and...
I discovered that people get to 50kg benching after 3 fucking months of lifting? What the fuck? And I'm the dyel-est person I know.

Look up beginner strength standards for men instead of reading troll misinformation on forums
>>42834689
>judging your progress based on other people.
>>42834689
You never know anon, you could be the person that some years from now, under the right conditions, that could be benching 180-230kgs for singles or doubles. I myself was a fat fuck that couldn't do a single pushup even my life depended on it, in three months doing a peaking programming like SS/SL, yet with much more volume, my last 1RM bench was 90kg, honestly never felt more proud of myself. I'm steadily losing weight(from over 120kg to 100kg rn), I really don't care anymore for maxes anymore but I feel I still can progress more.

Never gonna make it.
Don't worry OP, your body is just leaving some extra protein for the next dude to enter the squat rack.
How to improve shoulder mobility?
I do foam rolling of my lats, and lacrosse ball on my anterior delts and pecs. I also do the cross arms stretch and grab your elbow over your head stretch.
I need some more stretches or exercises. One of my shoulders is kinda fucked up.
squats
squat lowbar

What routine is the best for escaping skeleton mode?
unironically SS+GODMAD
greyskull but OHP everyday and no bench
>>42834323
doesnt matter as long as you lift hard, intense and regularely. And if you eat like a normal person, you will look like a normal person, so never go to bed when you could still fit something into your stomach beforehand.
Has anyone here had success with SS? Post some success stories to inspire a /fit/ noob.
Yes.

You, sir, have just exposed yourself as a Yellow Presser. Take your cheap & untrue sensationalism off this 'bus.
>walking towards a bus stop
>cute girl sitting there looks at me and then looks away
>once i get closer to her she looks at me again and we maintain eye contact until i walk past the bus stop
>neither of us smiles
did she want me to talk to her?
No
Cute girls maintaining eye contact when walking on the street has been happening more frequently and for longer periods the leaner i get.
24% - they avoid eye contact entirely
14% - sometimes they won't look away until we cross each other
Going for 10% lets go bois
You creeped her out, you autist. The normal thing to do if you lock eyes is to smile and see how she reacts. Even if she doesn't smile back, just look away and keep on track. Don't just stare at her like you're a vampire from Twilight.

Women don't like it when men smile.
Water appreciation thread. This is a thread to discuss water, how great water is and what water can do for you. How much do you drink? How do you take it? Do you have it flavoured? Reminder not to drink out of (((plastic bottles))).

Dream thread
What dreams do you have that you remember?
>>42834029
I dreamed it was snowing and I was watching the snow flakes fall on the concrete and form little piles on the ground.
The change of seasons has been on my mind lately, the winter bulk calls.
I had countless dreams about business ideas that could make me millions but I never remembered them
>>42834029
I keep dreaming about this fucking girl, it's bad enough that I can't get through a day without thinking about her 24/7, now she follows me even into my dreams.
Are you guys nice to the resident twink in your gym?

so i'm currently bulking but still don't want to get fat and out of shape. Is it pointless to do cardio while bulking?
I do a cardio session after each workout, but i feel like it may be killing progress, although i've already made some gains. Should i continue the cardio, cut back, or just pick it back up after my bulk?
