How much do I have to be able to lift for normies to think

normies don't really give a shit. they don't know what strong is.

>>39871160
1/2/3/4 pl8 x 5

>>39871160

You have to be able to lift yourself both physically and metaphysically.

>>39871160

Three months on SS.

>>39871190
I have no idea what these numbers mean.

>>39871160
You have to be able to lift a normie

Literally pick up anything.

Then wait for the dudes around you to say they leg press 700lbs and deadlift 500lbs. Not sure why those are the magic numbers but they are

>>39871287
4 x 45 lbs on Deadlift
3 x 45 on Squat
2 x 45 on Bench
1 x 45 on idk what

>>39871160
100 kg
It doesn't matter which lift is it.

>>39871356
>1 x 45 on idk what
ohp

the press

>>39871356
OHP

>when a normie asks "how much can you lift?"

what do you say

>>39871160
80kg bench.
100kg squat.
100kg deadlift.
They don't know OHP.

>>39871160
be tall and not-skelly and normies will assume you have magical lifting powers anyway

>deadlifting 4 reps of 1 plate
>"wow you're so strong anon"

>>39871388
"which lift?"

>>39871408
"uh like how much weight can you lift"

>>39871388
>when a normie asks "how much can you lift?"
a lot

>>39871356
But any 17 year old DYEL can do these lifts once they've sorted out their form. Or can someone clear this up for me?

>>39871412
520 lbs
muh deadlift

>>39871374
Yea, I expected that, but 1x45 on OHP isn't that much...

>>39871430
Some people get stuck on squat, and can't go over 2pl8s. Or bench is a weakness. But it should take most people around 6 months or even a damn year.

>>39871430
beginner goals nigga. Once you get to 1/2/3/4 you most likely have correct form (or at least correct enough to not risk injuring yourself every time you go to the gym) and the dedication necessary to continue improving yourself for the rest of your life.

>>39871388
All of it.

>>39871356
>>39871430
>>39871497

incorrect

1 plate = 1x 45 lb plate on each side of a 45 lb bar. lmao1pl8 is 135 lbs
2 plate = 2x 45 lb plate on each side of a 45 lb bar. lmao2pl8 is 225 lbs

etc.

Really it's just beginner goals like >>39871533

>>39871533
you make /fit/ a little bit less shit thanks anon may your lifts be ever greater

>>39871573
thanks, any time brah

>just found out that 1pl8 is 45 pounds

>>39871360
This

Once some new guy talked to me and said he wouldn't do MMA because he could killed some scrawny kid that got paired with him
>There are weight classes, besides lifting is different from fighting...
>I can lift 100kg, I could kill somebody!

He was completely serious and proud of his 100kg lift, I don't know in what, never saw him lift heavy, he was doing isolation

It is heavy for non lifter standards, but since it is achievable in a few months for a guy that can't lift the bar, it's not impressive at all

>Tall
>Pretty /fit/ at around 15% bodyfat
>I look better body-wise than anyone in my group or friends and normies in general
>Mfw people assume I can lift a lot of weight
>Mfw I've been asked several times if I leg press more than 500lbs by normies
>Mfw 2 normies made a bet that I can bench 100kgs thinking I didn't hear them

People who don't lift will be impressed by what /fit/ considers mediocre. Normies literally have no idea how their body works, what determines a good looking physique, what exercises target which and what bodyfat percentages show. If your bicep bulges slightly and you have at least 1 visible vein on your arm you're considered strong as fukk

I can squat 4pl8 but can only deadlift 2pl8.

How do I improve my deadlift?

>>39872312
Are you doing 1/16th of a squat? That level of disproportion means you have deep muscle imbalances, check the ratio of your quad/hams, add hip thrusts to start activating your ass (no one does, that's why it's important) also check your grip...

There are many factors involved. Sounds that you are T-Rex and forgot about posterior chain.

>>39872377
>2pl8 is 1/16th of 4pl8

how does this magic work? i thought 2pl8 = 2 plates each side = 4 plates
4pl8 = 4 plates each side = 8 plates

am i stupid?

>>39872629
He's saying you're probably not going through full ROM on your squat.

>>39872312
Step 1, learn to squat.

>>39872861
i wasn't the guy who he was talking to, but thanks for clearing that up for me

just one 20kg plate on each side of the bar on the bench press
thats it
it looks heavy to normies

>>39872629
U are...

>>39872918
i should double read everything i reply to i guess

>>39872629
That is correct, anyone else saying different is misinformed or delusional.

>>39872961
he wasnt saying what i thought he did, i just misread

>>39871287

Welcome to January, /fit/

>>39871805
do you think 15% bf is a good percentage for tall people?
im guessing that you would look like a hungry skeleton at 10%

>>39871160
if you can move 100lbs around like it's nothing then normies will think you're strong. Best one is just ohp 100lbs

>>39871160
What's this picture from? I see it around a lot but I don't know what happened

lmao today some NYR fags where in awe of me deadlifting 3plate.
Was literally just warming up. They must have died when they saw me doing 5pl8 a while later.

>>39871160
Not much at all.
weak as fuck lifts but I'm relatively lean and work IT so I'm "the strong one".

>>39873190
this isn't enough. When I startet training, ich had a ohp 5 rep max of 40 kg/88 lbs, so better go for 120-140 minimum.

>>39871182
truth

>>39873316
That's very interesting Anon. How is the rest of your life going while we're updating your blog?

>>39871160
Rookie mistake anon, normies don't care or talk about strength.
