>tfw stalled on 80lbs ohp for the past month

>started lifting a month ago
>currently at 95 lbs OHP
What the fuck is wrong with me

>>41259795
give it a try and dont go to hard at first and do it sitting.
with stalled ohp you just need to up your volume, just give it a try.

>>41259777
Microplates ...

>>41259820
I tried man. Anytime I get to a working weight (anything not pitifully easy that I can do 15+ reps) I get bad clicking and pain on seated

>>41259837
ok i guess you can add in normal ohp where you do high volume if db is too much trouble

>>41259795
i had this clicking pain with barbell it had to do with my grip,my grip was too wide and when i went down with the barbell i was moving it slightly forward as it came down to avoid hitting my head which was technicly impossible anyway,try watching some instructional videos to see how a grip should be made,personally alan thrall and athlean x helped me fix my shit form.

i stalled on like 90lb OHP for over a month before i started microplate and added front raises. booooy i've gone up all the way to 135 now each week. feels good

Cmon guys...

Don't listen to them, most people don't hit 135 within their first months of lifting unless they've worked out before, are fat, or have dad strength. No need to compare yourself to others with an advantage.

Pretty sure OHP is about mass just like bench press where the more mass you got the more you are able to lift.
I came into the gym as a 6" 186 20% slob but managed to 1pl8 OHP the first day i tried it.
Also benching 2pl8 and squatting 3.

>OHP 1 pl8
>can't even DL 3pl8

I stalled on 90lbs and i've been lifting for several years. Fuck OHP

was ohp lmao 1pl8 for reps

now cant even do 3 reps

mfw shoulder injury

>>41260815
same. try changing deadlift stance to sumo if conventional and vice versa. worked wonders for my herniated disc

>>41259777
I really hope that's per dumbell, m8.

There's a reason why it's 1/2/3/4. 1pl8 OHP takes about as long to reach as 4pl8 deadlifts.

However, a tip about form: Tighten your abs and squeeze your glutes(buttcheeks) together like you dropped soap in prison. Helped me add another 7.5kg before I stalled again.

>>41259777
its not all over so long as you keep trying, microload and chip away at it

How much do you weigh? I'm 175 lbs and I could easily ohp 70 lbs with dumbbells when I just started.

>>41260815
What's so funny about deadlifting without a bar? That's an exercise for grip strength.

OHP is fucking difficult to progress on, and 70 lbs is fully reasonable if you're new

But basically,

>>41259809
That doesn't seem too bad

manlet

>tfw stalling at 143x3 OHP
At least it's over 1pl8. It's my only lift that I'm confident in.
