Couple months I'll be yellow man..

Started OHP two months ago, started lifting 6 months ago, so it's behind. Not sure what's wrong with my delts.

It's a 3 day split, 6 days a week.

can't take seriously sites that don't ask for height

like I'm 85kg but a guy of average height with that weight should be massive, and I'm a twig.

>>41615842
stats are gathered from official bodybuilders since 1950, if you're obese/auschwitz you'd first aim for an acceptable weight for bodybuilders using the ideal bodyweight calculator.
sure there's still a chance that a 78 kg individual on a bulk at 90 kg could be underestimated, and viceversa. it's just an indicator.

>>41615602
Yeah its terrible man, I think my ankle and hip mobility really hinder me.

But this is my routine, heavy compounds with high rep isolations/accessories

Monday - Chest & Tris

Bench - 3x5 (Widegrip) sometimes throw in close grip for drop sets
Incline db flys - 4xXX low weight and highs reps, rep till I burn
Dips - 4x8
Tricep rope pulldown - 5xXX lowish weight high reps with dropsets
Seated cable flys - 4xXX
Standing cable flys (from ground) 4xXX
Pullovers - 4xXX
If im feeling it then incline db's 4x8, most of the time I dont, i should though
Curls - 4x8
Cable curls with straight bar 4xXX

Wednesday - Legs

Squat - 3x5 with dropsets @ atg
Hamstrings - 4x10
Leg press - 4x10 dropsets
Calf raises - 4x12

Thursday - Shoulders & Back

Ohp - 3x5
Lateral raises - 4x10
Bent over raises - 4x8
Face pulls - 5xXX with dropsets
Wide grip pull ups - 4x8 been adding low weights recently
Barbell Shrugs - 4x8
Bent over rows - 4x8
Bicep curls - 4x8
Cable curls with straight bar 4xXX

Friday - Compounds

Bench - 3x5 dropsets
Squats - 3x5 dropset

Saturday - Bodyweight Triceps

Press ups - 4x25
Tricep extensions - 4x12
Dips - 4x30 last set till failure
Diamond grip press ups - 4x12 last set till failure

XX=till failure or burn, till I give up haha

I need to add more volume on leg day and possibly do leg press or something

>>41615886
I meant to say I do leg extensions on leg day, but I need to add leg press

We don't care about legs we're freaks.

>>41615885
yes they should use bf% too because those lifts dont really need body mass so fat weight shouldn't be considered

>>41615886
do you take 3 hours on the gym? I take one hour to do 3 compounds and only with 3 quick warmup sets

>>41615171
Seriously its such a bullshit site

>>41615886
Thanks brah, might try this out.
Looks like it takes a shit ton of time though.

>OHP -38%
shieet

>>41615940
ezpz
take your weight and bf%
keep the same FFMI, and pretend you were at 10-15% bf (that's where the vast majority of powerlifters are, except for unlimited classes ofc)

Not doing fucking dropsets.

>>41616095
Instead of your real current weight, put in your weight at 10-15%, so it doesn't underestimate (if you're fat) or overestimate (if you're skinny), but compares your muscles to those of an average powerlifter

>>41616278
Understand what linear gains means

When it stops that's when you change your routine. SS specifically states to stop doing ss when you can not increase weight with every exercise you do.

Easiest transition is to just drop squats from a day and fill it with more volume on other exercises.

Working out for 9 months

never done a strength program but deciding on starting soon.

Gained some weight since i did this last, turns out my triceps/upper pecs/lower traps are no longer Proficient. surprisingly, my biceps are now proficient

Only entered backsquat/OHP/deadlift/Dip/Chinup/Pullup/bench

>>41616278
What's your routine? Your upper body needs more volume than your lower body.

Routines like SS and Stronglifts are sub-obtimal because they give more volume to your lower than upper, when you need the opposite.

>>41616336
Not him, but what routine can a beginner do if he is always t-rex mode?

I really want upper body strength / size badly desu

Lower body is already decent

>>41616336
>>41616371
Just do more sets of bench/ohp and add some upper body accessories at the end of your workout, it'll work out.

>>41616315
Why would I want to lose on squat gains though?

>>41616336
3x5 squats every two days (LP)
2x3 deadlifts three times over two weeks (LP)
5x1 90% deadlift holds as long as i can, twice a week
alternate between """heavy""" 3x5 and lighter 6x5 bench every two days (sorta LP with .25 kg micro plates)

then i fuck around with cleans, OHP, front squats, high rep squats when I feel like it

eating a shitload and sleeping ~10 hours a night

I bet your legs look better than mine even though I get a better score on the legs for some reason.

But guys, about this symmetrical strength, I only do DB benching, incline and flat. I added the weight as 72 kg total (36+36 kg for 8 reps), but I bet I'd be able to lift more with a bar.. adjust for this in the webpage how?

>>41621532
That's not a link you donut.

I am a poorfag curlbro who rarely works on his legs. I can only lift lmao 3pl8 because 335 is how much the bar weighs with literally every plate I have.

Who calls them flys? Those are just lateral raises. I've never seen them referred to as flys and not raises.

>>41622964

everyone I've ever talked to about weight lifting
albeit that's like 30 people max but they are flys

>>41622748
Thx, I have long femurs.

>>41622996
I feel like a fly is when it's a circular motion around the chest, like chest flys and rear delt flys. That just always made sense to me.
