For bench press use dumbells and for squats do lowbar and/or split squats.

I'm a giraffe.

My PR diddly 1rm is 6pl8. (only proven lift I have is 250kg see pic)
PR bench 1rm is 120kg. pathetic in comparison.
My squat is dump, don't really do squats nowadays due to work (walk 10+ miles every day)
I'm relatively decent at OHP though, can get 1 2 reps with bodyweight (85kg) and 12 reps with 1pl8.

The wildebeest is kind of a meme because it refers to ectomorph, and neglect that more weight equals more strength. For instans, alle strongmans are tall, but not ectomorphs.

Because body length proportions are only things that you cant change.
>long limbs, short torso
>long torso,short limbs

This affects leverages which make either easier or harder to perform certain lifts because longer the leverage the more force you need to output to make it.

You can change your metabolism,fat and muscle mass so you can never determine what morph type you are because its a meme

lol.
If you have long arms relative to your height, you're gonna have a harder time gaining arm and shoulder mass and strength compared to the rest of you. Your deadlifts are gonna be godly tho.

I.... I might actually be you, I sometimes have a good workout, feel awesome, go home and go to shower and I have to look away from the mirror as I undress and get in cause it depresses me, I get compliments and hit on all the time but I always convince myself there is something wrong with the person doing it

I just checked my proportions in paint. I went from 2 heads width to 2.5 heads width after going from 120 lbs to 180 lbs at 5'10". Height is set though so you're not going to get to hero mode if you're not already tall

>skeletal structure is a meme

It's really not kid. Take two people same height and bf%. One of them has 24" clavicles and 8" wrists, the other has 18" clavicles and 6" wrists. The larger frame guy is going to have an easier time in life due do being 'bigger' and will put out more weight. There's a reason all thicc guys have thicker/wider skeletons.

It's not so much of a problem with roids, but if you're natty with a small frame, you should just be accepting your ottermode fate. Don't injur yourself trying ot get any bigger.
