in pounds, i can bench 230 3x8, 250 3x6, 270 3x3. does that ratio seem bad?

>>41037650

xD i know i didnt have to specify because there's no way that it would be in kg's and pounds is the only thing that makes sense in the context but xD i did anyeways

breh, its pathetic how into politics I've gotten recently. The last 2 years have been rediculous. I've become the moderate/centrist Libertarian of pic related

>>41037783
Kek, try being a poli sci major at a liberal school when you hold conservative views. My entire day is clawing at lefty cunts, it's made me love politics so much more. So excited to work in a congressional office where my views are actually held by others as well.

Gonna ask here since /fit/ and qtddtot have never once given me a useful response...

I've never been able to deadlift without low back pain and it only manifests pain an hour or so after. Never hurts when lifting so it's really hard to tell what's wrong. But it hurts like a bitch for up to a week after.

I feel like the solutions to this problem are easy to understand and check for: don't round low back, brace core and keep a neutral low back. These are pretty much the only solutions I've ever seen and you'd have to be completely brain dead to not know what a straight back looks like and how to breath to brace properly.

I've been attempting to deadlift off and on for the past year and have made absolutely zero headway into solving this issue. I don't have a form video to post but when I did the responses I got were utterly useless, combined with the fact I have been relentlessly studying deadlift form I can't imagine solving anything this way even if I did.

I pretty much have the internet and practice as the only tools available to me to learn to deadlift. Seeing a trainer or a doctor isn't an option. Note that my lower back is fine if I just don't deadlift ever.

I really want to deadlift tho. Any unheard of trick you might want to share that could help someone as hopeless as me? If I could convey to you the lengths I've gone to to learn deadlifting I feel you wouldn't give me a canned response. I've read every guide and watched every form video. I have all the time in the world to study and practice with the limitation of the confines of my own home. Even deadlifting 1plate causes some mild pain later on which makes it impossible to troubleshoot form so I'm really at a loss here.

>>41037940
you might be aggravating something

>>41037940
>Seeing a trainer or a doctor isn't an option.
come on dude dont be one of those

>>41037940
I honestly cant help without a video. Im willing to bet you either cant differentiate between pain and doms or you cant brace. Bracing is more complicated than you think

what are you guys training today

>>41037969
I don't dispute bracing could be my issue but then this raises numerous questions such as:

>why don't I experience any pain DURING the deadlift?
>I've tried every breathing technique under the sun, breath into your balls, breath deep, only breeth in a comfortable amount, flex abs as hard ad humanely possible, maintain breath through the entire lift, setup at top, setup at bottom, with and without a belt, deloaded down to 1plate

>>41037968
it's not and as far as a doctor goes there advice was to stop doing it. if your solution is see a trainer your advice is useless to me.

>>41038013
how long does that take you

>>41038026
Look uo chris duffin bracing on youtube. Watch that video, practice bracing and report back

Would there be any benefit to benching light like 50% for 3x5 on my lower body days.

Trying to think of ways to add volume but without affecting my recovery.

How long does it take you to finish that training day? and what sheiko is it? 31??

190kg for 7 jezuz, what is your max like.

>>41038357
Max is 270kg lowbar squat, from 2 months ago when i was 20 years old.

Are you on roids?

How are you so strong?

>>41037940
pull your back tight you stupid retard
i can garantuee you that you just trying to keep your back flat and not pulling your lats tight at all
your nothing special or anyhing or medical phenomenon

>>41038390
nope no roids - just dedicated for the last 6 years, with good progression. No coaching though, even though i very much would like one. Ive basically just done cookie cutter programs like candito's 6 week program, sheiko, stuff like that.

>>41038409
Do you compete your probably the one of strongest guys on here.

>>41038409
What BW?

>>41038426
Yeah ive done strongman, and im going for my first national competition the 29th this month - my squat is 15kg above the national record, so yeah its going great actually. Food and training can take you a long way.

>>41038435
Well, that really depends - but i like staying between 100kg and 120kg. The most I've ever bulked up to is 127kg, at a height of 175cm.

>>41038446
120kg at 5ft8 Jesus Christ,you are a freak of nature.

Right, I have never read nor applied this form cue before. Silly me, what was I thinking? I just had to lock down my lats is all. All this time and researching and practicing it was the most basic form cue I just was too retarded to do because ya know tightening lats is the solution that I'm too retarded to do. Thanks man!

>>41038458
Thanks, not even kidding, fuck normal, really.
Im closing in at a 300kg squat naturally, and also 140kg strict ohp is not even that far away, im at 120kg now. But thanks man.

If I'm so inept so as to be incapable of seeing what a tight back looks like, what on god's blue earth makes you think you can make my eye's work any better? At that rate even if I actually did have an issue and you told me exactly what it was, by your logic, I'd be incapable of applying it. The only snowflake here is you thinking these common form cues are beyond anybody's ability to graps; they're not and they don't work for me.

Rough rule based on the Brzycki and Baechle formulae is that each extra rep is about -3% additive. So your 6RM is about 6% higher than your 8RM, etc. How that works with sets across is anybody's guess but why not assume it's good? You can use that estimate for a rough guess of %1RM for any RM from 3-10 reps and not be TOO far off for MOST people, but individuals vary.

Based on that, the 3x8x230 is maybe 5lbs light compared to the 3x6x250, and the 3x3x270 is maybe 2.5lbs light compared to that rough rule. So ... right on target I'd say.

I asked in my first post if there were any unheard of tricks that ya know maybe you had that helped you in a situation like me. Not basic form cues that I literally stated in my own post. Yet here you are, repeating them for no reason. This place is worse than the fit main page. Fuck it I'm outta here.

Almost all 5/3/1 suck because it's a ripoff of BFS and he took all the good shit out of it when he ripped it off. He lightened it so much that it became "accessory lifts: the program" and then he had to add crap like joker sets and first set last and shit to fix what he fucked up.

This is closer to the spirit of BFS and easy to manage.

Pick SIX movements. TWO MAIN LIFTS a workout day. Squat and Bench, Deadlift and Press, Front Squat and Close Grip Bench are good.

Track each week separately. No bullshit percentages. Just good honest progression.

Week 1, 3x3. Do as sets across, Rippetoe style. Max reps last set.
Week 2, 5x5. Sets across. Do 3x5 if you're short on time. Max reps last set.
Week 3, 5-3-1. Ramp them 80% 90% 100% of target. So 5x400, 3x450, 1+x500.
Week 4, 10-8-6. No stupid deload. No skipping this week so Wendler doesn't get sued by BFS. Ramp them 80-90-100.

Pick another six or nine accessory lifts. Do 1/3rd of them each day. 2x10. All should be compounds. DB presses and benches, rows, chins, dips, illegal bench, etc.

That's exactly what I do but I'm at the end of my rope. Real life exacerbates the pain too much and I know it's not normal because any other lift I'm good at just makes me stronger and feel good.

> blatant lack of ability to do a basic human movement
yeah cause your job had you picking up a straight barbell and setting it down all day, right? lol i never lift anything heavy from that half cocked position. if i were lifting any object in excess of 200 lbs i'd be relying heavily on force, momentum and asymmetry along with strength to get the object up as that would allow me to utilize far more muscles than what's optimal for picking up a straighr barbell that has a perfect center of mass and perfectly symmetrical shape.

>>41039334
Thanks mang. I don't think there's gonna be one. I'll be sure to get myself filmed though.

>>41039321
Good shit. We would have around the same numbers if it werenr for that bench. Its legit 100lbs more than mine.

Holy shit I have never seen somebody up themselves as much as you are. You claim to know what you are doing with the deadlift but you cannot even pick up 1plate without pain. You are probably borderline rertarded and doing the lift incorrectly which judging by the rest of your posts is the most likely scenario, or you have some kind of underlying medical condition like scoliosis.

>Its just hard dude
I get that anon, I do, but you're just digging deeper the longer you stick around in this chick's orbit.

>>41043026
He makes a pretty convincing case desu

he says that a high enough arch cuts out the area of the lift where the "stretch" occurs, removing a decent chunk of the chest activation from the lift, hence your average chad benching 140kg+ with a flat back

imo there may be some truth to that given that i squat 180kg, bench 115 and still struggle with fucking pushups

>>41043182
different guy. thought it sounded dumb. watched, made sense. he is just saying that huge arch flat bench isn't great for hypertrophy but hypertrophy is great for bench so people need to do other things as well for upper body if they dont want their bench to suck

>>41043182
>a high enough arch cuts out the area of the lift where the "stretch" occurs, removing a decent chunk of the chest activation from the lift

what ever happened to SSB friend?

why did he total 2k in his basement and then just disappear

also

Check how much weight you're gaining. If it's around 1 pound a week, then you're fine. If it's less, eat more, if it's more, eat less.

I may or may not be attracted to my "sister" and want to cuddle her hard. My brain is confusing as fuck and I can't tell whether these feelings are genuine or not. Also am depressed as fuck.

>"Sister"
Just a really close friend of mine. We refer to each other as brother and sister because we're fairly close. I definitely love her like a sibling, and I'm fairly sure it's the same on her end. Idk senpai, last time I thought I had feelings for her, they disappeared the day after. The time before that though, they took a couple months to go away. Either way, I'm completely and utterly cucked because I'm still not over my ex and my "sister" is in love with someone else.

>>41043761
I've heard if you turn out the lights and say his name three times he appears behind you and tells you that your bench program sucks.

>No fugging
I agree. I'm moreso frustrated about the situation existing than anything else. Just want things to be nice and easy.

>No idea what I want
It's possible, but I think it's more to do with my inability to reconcile my emotions with rational thought. My ex was fucking awful for me and no matter what I do to show that to myself, my feelings still don't change. 6 years of not being able to get over someone regardless of what you try is fucking torture man.

George's merit as a lifter has diminished as he's aged, but his teen lifting was some crazy shit. he was set to total 1900 raw as a natural teen, it also documented his 150lb cut after his mentally ill training style destroyed his hip flexor

sounds kind of dumb when you say it like that

As for the new Kendrick, Humble is a banger but i'm not really that keen for the new album, there's no denying he's good but nothing can top M.A.A.D city

One beer after work most likely won't impede your progress.

If anything, one beer is good for your gains. The carbs and yeast and shit help you recover from physical activity better than water would.

On Nuckols 3x beg bench,

How can I practice driving into my traps more? Only noticed i do it when I grind the last rep.

Just did my 3x6 and wanted to test out my 3x4 weight right now to get a feel for unracking it for confidence and practice staying tight. It feels pretty heavy but nothing bad, thought I'd try a rep just for ments but couldn't even do one.

This is normal right after I just grinded my last reps on 3x6? Just don't wanna get crushed in two days when I do this weight.

>>41048244
Stop overthinking. You put more weight on the bar next time and you lift it so your body gets stronger.

I consider it a bad thing but then again I follow chris duffin & CWS on this. Pulling ribcage down, bracing, cilinder pushing down, neutral spine, all that kinda stuff. If you're a rippetoe or trappy disciple you're probably gonna think "arch that back baby". I think it leads to injuries and inefficient force transfer but hey, guys like Virtus make it work wonders so who am I to tell them what to do.

>>41047347

Can you show us a video of you bench pressing?

I would assume your elbows float "up" and you're impinging that tendon, which is causing the problem. An unduly wide grip can encourage this to happen.

Finally stopped peeing out of my b-hole last night and knocked out some poz skwots, bench, and 10x1 DL singles today. Felt weak as shit on squats but fine on everything else.

>been doing SL 5x5 for almost a year now
>just reached lmao3pl8 squat
>squats are starting to take their toll on the rest of my workout
>bench day comes up and I'm tired after squatting and can barely bench 2 sets (200 lbs)
>OHP and Pendlays at 120 lbs
>Deadlifts only at 3pl8(I was a recovering fatty though, so I had a pretty solid squat from the start)

Should I start toning down the squat frequency now? Maybe drop to 3x5?

Squat looked a little heavy for an opener and the bench pause was super short, but other than that they look solid.

Good luck, senpai.

>>41050926

ooh very nice mixture of shit pouring out my butthole some nice solid logs followed by a merky spray of floaters with a nice musky scent mhmm

I'm still fatigued from doing heavy singles at 5 lbs less two days ago. They looked better on Sunday

Those all looked 10-15lbs above what your opener looks like it should be. Squat id say 20-25.

>>41054044
damn that titty jiggle

>>41054419
See >>41054390

All 4 u bb <3

No joke though, I'm gonna try to cut like 40 lbs after this.

>>41054390
Still slow on the squat in my opinion

What changes can be made to c6w to make it less shit for bench?

>>41054753
Probably has to do with the fact that my maxes are awful squat mornings and don't use proper form :^^^)

>>41054780
Just lower the squat opener lad. You can thank us later. Smoking your opening squat is key to killing first meet nerves

>>41054820
So how does this sound then

Squat:
1: 345
2: 365
3: 385-405

Bench:
1: 295
2: 310
3: 325-340

Deadlift:
1: 420
2: 440
3: 460-495

>>41054854
That looks better

>>41043908
show me the fking videos please

ded thred

>>41054221
anyone?

>>41054221
probably time to do a real program

>>41054221
>>41055678
A really easy fix would be to do your upper body lifts before the squats.
