I have been doing calisthenics for 2 years, and just tried to bench 110 lbs for the first time and could only do 5 awful form reps even though I can easily do 40 weighted pushups (30 lbs.)

I am also a 145 lb manlet if that means anything.

aint nothing wrong with you your just weak

Well for a start, the goal of calisthenics is not raw strength, and if you've been doing it with that goal in mind, then you're retarded.

And to get better at certain lifts, you do those lifts.

there's nothing wrong with you you're just weak
eat more and get form practice. your cns will figure it out soon enough
>>
>>40331878

You say you're bad at something you've never trained?

That's usually how it goes.

That's right in the novice standard according to symmetric strength: https://symmetricstrength.com/standards#/145/lb/male/-

Also, according to Symmetric Strength's FAQ:

> After going to the gym for a couple years, I am still classified as a "novice". Why are the standards set so high?

> The classifications compare you to strength athletes, rather than average gymgoers. Even being one of the strongest lifters in an average commercial gym won't guarantee you an "advanced" or higher classification.

So... everything seems normal... If you never do bench press, but you exercise regularly, then you should be a novice in that lift.

I wouldn't say I'm weak, I can easily lift myself (145 lbs) when doing dips, chinups, pushups and have amazing muscular endurance.
I didn't even feel a burn or exertion when benching it, I just couldn't lift the bar properly and my spotter made me stop :(

You just have to find someone who knows how to bench thats all im also 145 lbs but i can bench 176lbs just after 3 yrs of calisthenics
>>
>>40332043

You're 145lb.

Basic bodyweight exercises at that size are not tremendous demonstrations of strength.

>I wouldn't say I'm weak, I can easily lift myself (145 lbs)
You stupid twink faggot. If that's your bodyweight, I can strict press your frail body. You are weak m8
>>
>>40332242
I don't think there are any "weak" 145 lb men who can do 20+ chinups. I definitely beat all my friends who don't work out in strength, and they are taller and weigh more than me.

>>40332092
too bad that powerlifter has TINY WHITE DICK
>>
>>40332043
>>40332297
try doing a pushup or god forbid a pullup at 300, that shit will make you beg for mercy
>>
I could rep 205 on bench when I first tried after doing calisthenics.
You either dont know how to bench or youre doing calisthenics wrong.
