Similar feelings here. Thought I'd have massive shoulders when I got up to 125lb OHP but they really didn't look like much. Started doing 3x8 lateral raises after OHP and my shoulders have started to grow a lot more.

The gym I go to only allows seated OHP. You can't even OHP in the power rack or deadlift areas. If you're not sitting someone comes up and stops you and tells you to find a seat or they escort you out.

Sucks dick, but that's college.

>>42098046
also check your diet, don't go lower than maintenance or small deficit if you're trying to lose fat. Get as close to 1g protein per 1lb bodyweight as possible. It's fine if you can only get .8, just get as close as possible. Gotta do diet and exercise, not just one.

It's not about how much you lift, but the results you get in your physique.

It's easy as fuck to progress in a lift with such a minimalist routine. If all I did was squats and deadlifts, with varying rep ranges and intensity, I'd probably get to 3/4 in a year, year and a half.

i mean shit i do some workouts at home with dummbbells that are only 28-35 lb (depending on waht weight i put on them) and thats all i can do for biceps, 2 arm tricep extensions, shrugs and bent over rows. i can do shoulder press the 28ers with my right arm but can barely even get 1 or 2 reps with my left

Until you're grinding your knees into the fucking ground doing the highest squat volume you can possibly recover from with 3+ session per week frequency with good form while being brutally honest with yourself about form, sleep, food, recovery and deload weeks just to put 10lbs on your squat, you're not even remotely close to your natty limit.

Pro tip: It's very very very hard to overtrain with too much volume, but easy as fuck to burn yourself out if you try to hit arbitrary numbers and arbitrary weight increases every week without increasing the amount of work you do just because /fit/ told you that you're not gonna make it unless you can squat 3 plates while only doing 6 sets a week.

I figured I could push it a little bit more, is it stuck at this until I start to bulk? It's still so weak.
>>
>>42099636
It may be very hard to overtrain, but too much volume can hinder your progress. Perhaps the most common problem for people who run TM, including me, is too much volume, which doesn't allow you to fully recover for the intensity day.

>>42099668
biceps are extremely easy to build and you can do it outside of the gym

bench hits your tris really good which are bigger than your bis and pull-ups engage them too

realize that "curlbro" is a meme precisely because flanting dumbbells around in front of the mirror is not necessary as part of a whole body workout
>>
>>42097126

Okay i'm a total beginner and my ohp is 88lb, but i can't even bench 135lb.

What gives? Is my bench just weak or my ohp stronger?
>>
>>42099743
don't do them on the same day
>>
>>42099753

I do both on the same day, but I always bench first, then OHP later.

I do accessories for the chest... incline bench, dumbbell flys, push ups, and nothing for shoulders but I don't know why my ohp is apparently stronger than my bench.
>>
>>42099743
>i can't even bench 135lb.

2 sets with 105 lbs and 4 sets with 115lbs

>>42099656
>1 hard set, 5 easy stets (5x5 at like 70% 1rm cmon buddy easy is an overstatement) and 2 piss easy sets on light day per week

That's significantly less volume than even SS, and SS is about half the squat volume and a quarter of the bench volume you'd be doing on a real strength routine written for intermediate powerlifters. Let's not even talk about deadlift volume. There are sheiko days where I've done 5 sets of deadlifts and 5 sets of deadlift off blocks in the same session, You're just not working hard enough.

Long arms and shit programming. Squatting a lot makes your deadlift go up while OHP is barely trained.

More OHP. You'd have to change your routine entirely desu. You're already not doing the program and if you're doing a bunch of dumbbell accessory work I doubt your fitness goals align with SS anyway.
>>
I struggled the bar at first and now i do 140 lbs. It just takes time.
>>
>>42099545
I don't know

It's retarded, but half the gym is machines and the other (smaller) half is free weights, 6 benches, 3 places to deadlift and 5 places to squat. For a campus of like, 50000 people.

Seated OHP isn't terrible but I don't delude myself into believing I'm getting everything out of it. At least it has shame bars so if my shoulder decides to kick up mid-set I don't drop it through the floor.

if there's a community college nearby with a gym you might be able to use theirs. We have a local one that doesnt card you at the entrance so just anyone could walk in and start lifting

Reminder that low rep exercises do nothing, 3 sets of 10 or you're wasting your time
>>
>>42097177
Yea this, there is a lot I've come to learn about my body after stalling on SL5x5 at not much weight, I just don't progress quickly, well I'm not naturally strong, probably on the lower end of the spectrum since I stalled pretty early even with deloading.

I enjoy progressing by doing steps, for example choosing a weight I can do 8 reps, try for 12 the following week but 10 reps is still progress and once I can do 12 reps I move to the next weight

Starting at 6/7 reps works really well too

Huh how does that go?

I'm currently benching 130lb right now for 3 reps, and my plan is to increase that to 4 reps, then try benching 135 for 3 reps. Then slowly increase that to 4 or 5 reps.

are you talking Barbell or Dumbbell? If DB, then weve made the same progression in the same time.

>>42100561
you'd make gains faster if you dropped the weight to something you can do 5-6 reps of, then do 3-4 sets of that until you can do 8 or 9 reps. THEN up the weight to whatever you can do 5-6 reps of and repeat

Hello fellow T-rexes how was your day today? Earlier today I tried to make a move on Stacylosaurus until she ran up a steep cliff and I couldn't climb to reach her, feels bad man.

Must just be tall

You guys need more volume AND more frequency. Pyramid that shit like 8 sets, and thats just barbell. Then head over to the freeweights and pyramid up/down another 6-8 fucking sets of seated hammer grip. Then grab some light shit and bang out 4-5 sets of lateral raises. Lastly crank out a few sets of shrugs and thats your shoulder day. You fucking go home and eat/lay down after this. Every other day at the gym do at least 1 set of pressing with medium-heavy weight, shoulders respond well to high frequency.

t. 2pl ohp for reps

Why do you think I'm a manlet? 6'1". Not everybody starts off at a 2 pl8 deadlift kiddo. I'm sure you did though.
>>

Nobody cares, in fact I prefer dyels in the gym to meatheads. They're really respectful and I don't have to listen to as much TSSST. TSSST. TSSST. TSSST. TSSST. OOOOOAAAAHHHHHHHH

But between a torn ACL, separated shoulder, and severely depleted wallet I lost a shit load of gains in 2 years. Getting it back is so much worse than starting fresh. But I'm tired of being weaker and softer.

I hope you've gone to the gym in the 2 days you've posted, anon.
If you can press 35lb dumbbells you can definitely bench the bar, it'll just feel differently. Go for it, anon. I've seen a ton of DYELS in the gym and the only ones I don't like are the cocky ones that think they can squat 3pl8 because they can box squat it with 5 inches of ROM

Theyre probably weak cunts. Guys who actually laugh at other people at the gym are massively insecure and not worth your time or thoughts. Dont even dignify them with a response.
