My lifts
A bit over 1/2/3/4
>>
>>42130202

don't want to make a thread so i'll ask here

how do I handle doms, I deadlifted for the first time in awhile and now I can barely walk, should I train tomorrow and run or rest?

When I rest it usually gets worse and worse, do I just work through it?
>>
all turquoise intermediate if I eliminate rows, which are apparently -15% the average

how to get better?
>>
>>42131693
doms is just something you get when you use a muscle you haven't used in a long time, look it up on wikipedia if you want. just power through it and after a while you won't get it anymore, you'll be sore but not disabled sore.

Been training consistently for 6 months at home, spend 2 years before barely ever working out at home and eating on bulk so I wouldn't count those.

Don't even train legs. Not sure how I got anything proficient. 5'9, 155lb, best lift 25lb pullup x 10.

There's no way you can have those lifts and be in the negative strength percentiles.

I'm fucking 185 and my bench is only -5% compared to your 11%. But you have almost 2x BW bench. So wat
>>
>>42133107
Yes I put age.

Do people not understand how this site works?

Your percentages are in comparison to your OTHER LIFTS. My deadlift and pullup are high so in comparison to someone deadlifting 465 my bench is LOW.

6' ~80kg. Lifting on and off for the last few years i.e. no progress but work a physical job. Only been consistently training for the last 5ish(?) months. I also have long legs which helps my DL I guess
>>
>>42133357
long legs are typically bad for DL it means you have to lift the weight higher unless you pull sumo like a bitch
>>
>>42133318
Forgot to add 155 lbs.
>>
>>42133371
nah baby all conventional. I reckon early on I saw good numbers in Deadlift so was more motivated to work harder for it, hence the higher numbers. Was scared of squat for a long time but now I enjoy it. Fuck yeah i love lifting shit
>>
>>42133398
I hated squats until I discovered low bar, it just feels so much better for me. But my deadlift is still where it's at for me. I love feeling that bar bend. It starts to get noticable around 4pl8.
>>
>>42133427
Yeah man i'm doing high bar as long as i've lifted. The technique was easier to begin with, but I have to say I do enjoy the depth.

Don't have proper shoes for squatting and fucking hate it. Deadlift is double overhand, 6ft 180lb.
>>
>>42133477
squat barefooted. your shoes can't be fucking your squat up THAT bad.
>>
>>42133489
Will try it, also suspected I've got longer than average femurs with shorter than average tibia that makes doing proper depth somewhat awkward.
>>
>>42133357
also double overhand grip on DL
>>
>>42133504
it's most likely just your mobility. It takes a while to build up being comfortable going a2g. Leverages might account for about 10%+- on your lifts unless you have absolute freakish proportions
>>
>>42133517
lol no offense but it's not worth mentioning double overhand unless you're at 4pl8 or above.

Honestly shouldn't be touching squat until the rest of my body grows because I have abnormally large legs, I think I store more fat in them than the average person.

My friend's stats are hilarious on that site, he squats 2 pl8, deads 3, and benches 3.5.
His chinup stat puts him in world class on lats, biceps and upper back.
His symmetry is the worst I've ever seen.
