same for me lad

i went to 5x130kg deadlift in almost 3 months but my bench is like 60 kg

wish I was you
Bech is 140kg
Deadlift is fucking 180kgLMAO

>>39548896
your form is garbage. if your ohp is going up very fast and your bench isn't, it's gotta be a form problem.

>he's bending his wrists back when he benches
>he's benching with his elbows at shoulder height
>he's benching with his forearms not perpendicular to the bar
>he's benching with his feet on the bench
>he's benching lying on his stomach
>he's benching on a lat pulldown machine

check for any of these problems.

>>39548935
>those llast 2 points
kekked

but yeah my form probably is shit

i think bar path especially i think i do it like this : / get it
also probably im not tucking my shouldlers properlly or some shit idk

what shoud be the ohp / bench ratio ??

i do 5x40kg ohp and 60k

>>39548970
I think the best OHP to Bench ratio is about 0.6kg OHP per 1kg of Bench
So if youre benching 100kg you probably should OHP 60kg

>>39548935
My feet are indeed on the bench, my back hurts if put them on the ground

>>39548989
yeah it probably varies but seems about right

>>39549001
Mate you have to keep an arch in your lower back with feet flat on the floor and bring your shoulder blades back. This puts much less stress on your rotator cuff, involves the chest more and allows you to use your glutes and hamstrings to stabilize

SMDB

I was the same but with overhead press
>everything progressing nicely
>ohp stuck at 35 kgs forever

Starting Strength claims even more victims, I see.

>>39549412
Not doing starting strenght, but a bro split

>>39548896
It's the other way round for me, since starting bulk, my dumbbell bench has skyrocketed from 35 to 70kg in the last 3 Months, meanwhile I've only increased by like 15kg on OHP

>tfw 170x4 OHP but 220x4 BP

I close grip, tho. Feels more pokerful in a way

>>39549519
My BENCH™ went from 40 to 95kg in 4 months, my OHP went from 30 to 65kg at a steady pace. But since 3 weeks my BENCH™ is stalling.

>>39548896
Be thankful for what you have breh.
I bench more than I squat or deadlift...

>>39549601
>I bench more than I squat or deadlift
Literally fucking how

Were you born with defective legs?

>>39549667
Defective tendons and joints.

I can't do fucking anything without inuring myself.
I'm also so stiff and immobile that I can't do a conventional deadlift... no amount of stretching does anything for me.

>>39549702
Fuck, I'm sorry.

A friend of mine has some weird thing in his legs and his calves are tiny as fuck, he struggles with squats and deads too. I've always had strong legs, much stronger than my upper body

>>39548908
Your stats don't sound that weird to me t bh.

Do you have long arms? Deadlifting is easier with long arms, while benching is heavier.

>>39548935
>Not benching on the lat pulldown machine
Confirmed not gonna make it

>>39548935
>on his stomach
thanks man

>>39548908
180kg deadlift took me 6 months 100kg bench took 2 years
