Don't have access to a barbell atm
If I can strict press 55lb dumbells (110lb) for three reps can i rep 135 on a barbell?
Can Rippetoe press 1pl8?
>>37768487
Unlikely. Put up 135 for a single? Possibly, but repping it is a different story. They're different enough movements that its entirely possible to be good at one and suck at the other.
D-does a 185 lb push press count?
>>37768487
if you can't clean the barbell it doesnt count, and if you havent been cleaning you'll have to cheat with a squat rack.
But if you can only do 3 reps of 55lb dumbs you probably wont be able to do more than 2

No. I can rep 70 pounds on DB press. Can only do 120 for 5x5. Although, I haven't tried 1 plate on OHP. I could probably do 5 reps for one set.

Am i hearing this heresy right?

We have trespassers in the thread, I repeat trespassers in the thread.
>>37768487
It depends but i believe you can. I rep 60 lbs dumbbells for 3x10 reps freestanding right now and last time i checked was able to do 155lbs bb no problem. Bb sucks dick anyway so i wouldnt worry about it
>tfw you hit 135 today for two clean reps
Feels good man. I've been chasing that 1pl8 OHP for a while now. Once I get a full set of 5 with 135 I'l feel accomplished.
>>37768544
What.
>>37768410
>12 reps at 135lb
or
>1 rep at 180lb
(seated if it make any significant difference, home gym ceiling is too low for standing)
>>37768754
>missing out on core gains because of gain gobbling ceiling
bro the biggest reason to do OHP is for the core gains
>>37768754
>implying seated is anywhere near as hard as standing
>>37768782
>>37768766
ok, I guess I'm gonna have to drag my barbel to my front yard from my basement and have the neighbors mire my clean and press.

>>37768410
174lbs faggot pressing 160lbs reporting in. I just have to say, I fucking hate shoulders. Makes me just sad on the inside compared to my other lifts
>>37768797
>he doesnt want a fucking juicy core
never gonna make it
>>37768410
Is 1 plate good now or something? If you can't rep that for 8 GIT OUT
>>37768844
I have probably a top 10 Wilks among the plg-ers. If you want some vids, just ask m80

>yet he doesnt realize 1 pl9 seperates the noobies from the dedicated gym goers
