Eat 2 cups of oats and 3 chicken breasts and try again later

>>36657750

Lift for more than 2 months

OHP develops more slowly than other compound lifts.

>>36657780
Yeah that's probably it, I've been lifting only for about a week now.

>>36657768
Will do

Doing 65 pounds on OHP for 5 when you're first starting is not bad

>>36657750
65 lbs?

I feel better now.

On Saturday I benched 80kg for 3x8, were solid reps and managed to retract good. The thing is today I wanted to try again at 82.5kg and did only 3 reps. Then I deloaded to 70 and still was hard. Rest of the workout went great 50kg 5x5 (dealoded from 57kg for 4 reps) , incline bench 55kg 4x10 , skullcrushers 4x12 with 5kg per side of eazy bar and finally did some solid 3x6 dips. Just started them cause I was afraid. I can't think why I my bench was like that. Could it be that I slept shitty for 5 hours and woke up fast and ate 30grams of oats + 30g whey + 200mg caffeine ? BP was my first exercise also and I strongly recall feeling so shitty at my warmups and during the "sets" I did. It made me so sad cause I was so happy after Saturday's training. I'm still thinking about it.

Nah I'm pretty weak desu

>85 lb squat
>75 bench
>95 deadlift

6'1 155 pounds

>>36657935

Those aren't abnormal stats for someone starting, especially a person with no skin or flesh like yourself. Yeah, you're weak compared to people who've lifted. But you haven't.

>>36657915
Sleep defiantly had an impact on your lifts man. Now that I think about it I only had 4 hours last night and just went through a 2 hours exam.

Really is pathetic anon. Hope you use the shit feeling to fuel your desire to get better.

LONDON

>>36657935
you've only been lifting for a week
chill out dude

I started a bit higher but after 2 months I'm;
125lb bench
125lb row
195lb squat
100lb ohp
215lb deadlift

and that is with no training very well
just keep it up and you will progress well

As of today,

>OHP 40lb x10 reps
>Bench 55lb x8
>Squat 75lb x10

I'm 5'5" and 140lb. Not a manlet, just a grill. Still depressing, though.

This video should be linked in the sticky.

>>36659167
why the high reps?
why not do a beginner strength program?

>>36657750
its called muscle fatigue

>>36657750
Probably not resting enough between sets, desu

>>36659285

I know this will sound retarded, but I'd like to improve my endurance as much as my strength, so I thought going with a mid-range number of reps would be appropriate. But i'm starting to see it accomplishes nothing.

I know 8-12 reps is usually associated with muscle growth, which wouldn't bother me, but I won't be gaining much because I'm not eating enough.

Not sure what I should do at this point.

>>36659167
Do 5 reps on all barbell exercises and increase the weight

>>36659400
I'll try this next time and see how it goes.
More rest between sets, right? I usually wait around 1 min and half and even then I feel like it takes forerver...

>>36659365
just do strength
if you want to gain endurance throw in accessory work

>>36659424
Makes sense.
Thanks for the advice.

>>36657750
I've heard this from other people and experienced this myself on the OHP. keep at it, buddy
