jfc a 100 lbs 1rm The Press makes you untrained. How much do you weigh?

>>39848650
6 foot 198 lbs. 23 years old. In that weird area between cutting to get rid of this unsightly gut and bulking to get my strength to something respectable. Trying to eat at a deficit but still get a shitload of protein to make gains with. How retarded does that sound?

>>39848695
> Eats at deficit
> Expects gains
Yup. Sound pretty retarded to me.

I've only been going for 3 weeks.
How do I increase my bench press? Even doing 5x5 of 35kg makes my arms feel fatigued as fuck

Have been doing squats and deadlifts for 2 weeks only, been progressing conservatively but I'm sure I can do more.

>>39850117
That's just the way it is, keep at it. When you reach a certain weight for the amount of reps you want just increase the weight everytime untill you can lift that too for the amount of reps you want.

>>39850227
nah it's just that your overhead press seems really high for just "proficient"

lol You're like a more proficient me.
Did you also fall for the SS meme?
I'm gonna finish out my LP on Greyskull. Then I'll hit up some sort of upper body focus.

>>39851343
Wouldn't really call SS a meme when it's taken my squat from ~50 kg to 130 kg in just a couple months. And I'm still progressing fine on the squats and diddlies. My upper body was just non-existant when I started and it still shows.

>>39851154

Oly lifts, though im not an olympic lifter.

I cant press.

145 5'9 rn and 6 months, should I bulk up to fat fuck mode for strength or should I keep going with my steady weight gain to maintain my decent bw ratios?

>>39851643
should prolly maintain a steady weight gain. the only feel that will be felt from fat fuck mode is ragrets

>>39851013
How am I e-stating? Those are my numbers, I got 415lb squat 2 months ago 5 days after finishing the meso phase of smolov and did smolov jr. for bench, and deadlift has always been easy.

>>39851106
How far down should I cut? a certain bf% or just a static weight?

>>39851133
Maybe you should show us what a brosplit body looks like

I'm all blue, pink, and purple.

I will turn into greenwoman this year.

>>39854387
Don't listen to that guy. You can worry about cutting when you're squatting 315.

>>39854969
Jesus Christ. Is there a manual to this whole "not looking like shit" thing? Or is it all just hearsay?

Thanks m'dude

>>39855131
The problem is, people have different goals, and people will give advice based on their goals regardless of what your goals are, even if you made it known. If my goals are strength, and your goals are aesthetics, then there's a good chance I'm just going to give you advice based on building strength and "lol fuck aesthetics."

Same works visa versa.
