mediocrity in every aspect. Can't understand your fascination.

This is me except more like same weights for 7 years lol. Besides being happy with my body already. I regularly stop lifting for months at a time. I come back and I'm about the same on max bur I can't rep the same. My form isn't as good get injured etc. Just getting back into it again but also running way more than ever before. Fitness and goals change over time. All I want right now is a sickspacm

Would take the mother over daughter any day of a month desu.

because personally i enjoy going to the gym per se
i just like the time with myself, concentrating on the movement, keeping form, thinking about stuff between sets
its like meditation mang
i progress, but i easily can see myself just not giving a fuck one day about gainz and just doing it for the sake of doing it

I knew a girl who was like a younger hotter Kate Beckinsale I swear to god! Years later after she moved away she came back and went skinny dipping with her and made out with her; not many can say they made out with their biggest crush on the planet.

>not increasing reps instead of weight

I joined a gym a week ago, it's a fairly family oriented chain, so you get all sorts of people on different hours of the day.
I like being a klutz though, I sometimes make mistakes on purpose and make a fool of myself in the eyes of others. I find it helps to defuse the situation in terms of being an auschwitz skelle.

Stop doing strict, move to push press. Add another shoulder (or triceps - depends) to your routine.

i got few guys like that in my gym

one dude is around 40 years old, he is kind of skinny fat, does shit loads of cardio and he looks exactly the same as the first day i saw him, he benches 22.5kg (bar + two smallest plates) and the dude is well over 6 feet tall and weights around 200lbs. He probably could bench 1 plate for reps easy

>>34976871
It's not that bad.
I was benching 60 pounds for an entire year, then one day i decided to double it, so i did 5 repts of 120, and then i added 20 more the next week.

You can lift baby weight, i think it builds a foundation and potential. I had never done an over head press until about a month ago, and in two weeks i was OHP 120 pounds,

Sadly, because i didn't know about squats, i never worked legs until a couple months ago, so my squat is only slightly stronger than my bench. When i squat, i dead the bar off the rack, lower to the ground, then snatch, and place the bar behind my neck.

>>34977001

>>34978967
>When i squat, i dead the bar off the rack, lower to the ground, then snatch, and place the bar behind my neck.
I thought you were just excentric with your benching but are you clinically retarded?

>>34978060

>>34978060
you put on more weight on the fucking bar you dipshit

>>34976871
>tfw broke my collarbone and can't bench press more than 60lbs or else the screws in the plate star to hurt

Fuck I hope I'm not that guy 2 years from now, but I've been stuck at 60 lbs for 3 months

I cant remember how I looked when I started so I dont know if this is true or not.

My lifts havent gone up at all in the last year or so and they are still baby tier but I definitely look a lot better.

I simply can not strength train. I cant do the 'get in the zone and break PRs' shit.

So I just train for hypertrophy now. It is nice to have an okay body but I do get jelly of people with awesome numbers.

>>34979537
This is how you do it
>You take plates
>Put them on the bar
>Walk to the other side of the bar (not too fast because cardio kills gains) and put on the same ammount of plates
>You lift the weight up and down
>You hate yourself because your form didn't feel right and your weight is shitty some other dudes lift heavier than you
>You go into the bathroom and cry
>You come out and put on more weight
>Rinse and repeat until you are done with that excersize

>>34977001
damn, me too.

>>34979590
Do you not find your bar flips over putting all the plates on one side?
> implying you even lift

>>34977601
Why would push be better? It simply looks like cheating on OHP. The extra shoulder might be a good idea though.
I'm at 6 weeks ICF and can't progress 5lbs each session (as they recommend) but I'm really close to 0.5plate.

>>34979683
The fact that you do not know that there are hooks that hold the bar so that doesn't happen is just making you seem like a complete idiot, hence I lift more than you.

I feel little lazy today, give some advice to go the the gym.

i got my squat from a rickety 135 to 275 (belted) in a little under a month, proper depth

as much as it will pain you faggots to hear, rippletit's instructionals for the basic lifts have helped me more than any other instruction i have ever found. i recommend them highly

going to the gym shouldn't be a chore but something you look forward to doing

>>34976900

so true. from what i see 95% of gym goers who try and get serious fall into this trap for some extended period of time during their first couple of years of training.

anecdotally the only way of avoiding is having a good few years of moderately serious lifting experience under your belt.

>>34976871

>>34979697
>Catalog

not the guy who suggested it, but i agree with him. strict press is shit for a lot of peoples shoulders over time.

also weighted dips will help.

>>34976871
like the most aesthetic guy I can think of at my gym uses fairly light weights. Rarely see him bench over 2 plates, bicep curls with 30-35lbs normally

I only raise the wieghts, if I feel good and not so much exhausted with it.

3 years in. still lifting baby weight. It doesn't feel like it's been that way....but I started freshman year, and hear I am about to graduate...
It's all good though. I lift for fun.

When in doubt, change up routine.
