My bench is way stronger than my incline bench which is in turn way stronger than my OHP. I've got no upper pecs and my front delt strength is abysmal. Do I need to start doing front delt isolations? Or do I instead need to double down on vertical pressing?t. 335 bench/225x5 incline bench/185x2 OHP

HI /plg/, I think that you would be very interested in my TURDMAN program. TURDMAN is geared for fat fucks like you all.If 12 frozen pizza snacks is a possible meal, and not a cry for help, if your bodyweight is someone's deadlift, then you need to see my TURDMAN

>>75589950Comfy
>>75590564Its just deadlift being a shit lift especially sumo, his conventional to comp standards is like what 220kg? Bench like 120? None of that is suggesting steroid usage
>>75590730You can use steroids and still be a shitter, relatively speaking. In fact most steroid users are shitters. There are 3 guys in my gym that I think are on, none of them are big or strong. You can tell from the skin and muscle textures, and also how they are lifting.
>>75590738True and for sure there are plenty of steroid users who can barely bench 100kg but nothing about pony suggests steroids other than his 1inch rom sumo deadlift. If you remember frog he squatted like what 250kg as a junior? Thats way more impressive than any of the ponys lifts and he was natty.

>>75590768I’m a junior and squat 535x5.I have avoided accusations of roids by virtue of impeccable character.
>>75590730If you'll consult the graph.. He plateaued around 125-130kg bench and 260kg sumo for most of this year. Then September came. This is a period where he got a ""coach"" (only told him to eat - ignored), dyed his hair, and said he'd neglect everything for deadlift PRs. He was on a caloric deficit during this period and recomped into abs. He'd max out on sumo weekly if not twice a week. His 280kg PR and plateau breaker was done a day after failing it and doing a bunch of max effort singles. After his 300 he got caught lying about "bulking hard for it", because the idiot posted about cutting in October.In this period where he suffered every training debuff possible and neglected his bench training, his bench just randomly smashed through the plateau. Why? We all know why.>>75590768His lifts are not impressive. His rate of growth - strength and appearance - under these circumstances is the problem. It just doesn't add up, and that's why he immediately left the moment people started pointing these inconsistencies out. He's a juiced up wannabe zoomer fitfluencer.

>>75591542That's under 420. I accept your concession, fat boi.
1) squatting with a squat bar is so much better than squatting with a regular shitty bendy gym bar2) louie was right hamstrings are what gets you out of the bottom of the squat3) louie was right squatting on an incline vs squatting heel raised works quads much much more4) low bar gms are so much easier than high bar gms or ssb gms, like 1.5x easier at least, and possibly 2.5x easier
>>75591581My all time best at the time was 410, with a much shorter pause than I did in competition. I'd say it was roughly equivalent in terms of strength, maybe slightly less due to only benching 3 days a week for the entire comp prep so I wasn't as efficient at benching as I could have been. But you don't care about that, you just want to seethe at someone who is a much better bencher than you are, which is fine, stay mad kek.

>>75594394>Ignorant about powerliftingElbow depth doesn't apply to me because only the IPF cares about it, which I also do not compete in. Not to mention you're complaining about arch size, which no fed regulates.

>>75594421>Min-maxing your lifts is... Le bad!Lol, imagine basing the amount of respect you have for yourself off of something so nonsensical and frankly, incredibly minor. "Oh no, I arched his back slightly too much in the bench press, guess it doesn't count even though I touched my chest and did everything else right". It's a hobby, apply whatever standards you want to yourself but if most rule sets ignore the rules you're applying, the rules you're applying are probably retarded.
>>75594429For jerks I did a progression like thisblock one>Push press 5s, 3s, power jerk 3s>sets of 5 on push presslinear periodization block 2 >Push press plus pause jerk> Pause Jerk>Heavy front squat sets, 3s, 2s, 1sNext block will be >pause jerk plus jerks>jerk singles(200kg goal)Might still hit another one or two heavy singles on push press next block, not sure.

>>75594447I like overheads but I prefer benching. It's my main pressing focus, so why would I strengthen muscle groups disproportionately to how much they would help my bench press? I don't care about lifting for aesthetics so that's not really an argument that would be persuasive for me.>>75594448What a based person you must be and not a schizo at all

@Plutez sorry for the delay and thanks for taking a look. This covers the whole MDB session from 140lb up to two failed attempts at 200lb.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlECfuAqoo8
>>75594438You're the reason why people laugh at powerlifters and don't respect them. You bask the glory of the reputation I give the sport. You're a joke.
>>75594607Bobby has not tried to lose weight in over ten years. No, his new years resolution tier attempts don't count.
>>7559462330 lbs lost doesn't count? All because le retarded anon said so? Wowie!>>75594617>Caring what a bunch of normies that don't even lift thinkSkill issue
>>75594634Come on, dude. You're really going to be proud of (and count) cuts that failed within a month now? All these attempts FAILED because you got nowhere near your target and immediately put the weight back on. Bobby, learn to respect yourself.
>>75594641>Within a monthI was cutting for like 3 months?>Put the weight back onSome of it, not all of it and not even most of it

thready reminder
I like to keep tabs on other male lifting enthusiasts. I'm like totally obsessed with this one guy name Bobby. he sure knows how to make me go wow!
>>75594690Some people are christorians, I'm a blobstorian
>>75594690y emphasize male
>>75594634>30 lbs lost doesn't count?Current bodyweight: 270+Implication: former bodyweight was 270+30 ≥ 300Thank you for admitting you were at one point over 300 lbs.
>>75594745Faulty logic but you knew that already. I said I regained some of it. 290-30+10 = 270. Nice try though :)
I think about Bobby. I fantasize about Bobby. I talk to myself and living assistant about Bobby. I oftentimes dream about Bobby.It goes without saying that I also post about Bobby too. When I feel sad and lonely, I pretend Bobby is with me in the room and that always cheers me up.
>>75587089Is Rippetoe gay?
>>75594762So you failed at your cut.
>>75594766The irony in you posting this is that those sentences were formed in your head and are reflective of your own inner narratives as opposed to the ones you attempt to mock. But you already knew that, didn't you frank? What's his bussy like big guy?
>>75594766Too on the nose>>75594775I didn't reach my end goal but to imply that 30 lbs lost doesn't count because I didn't reach my end goal is pants on head retarded.
>>75594775vertical cuts next time bobs
>>75594786you mean twenty
>>75594794I lost thirty. I didn't say I kept it all off but that doesn't erase that I was 260 at one point after being 290. Why are you so obsessed with forcing your opinions on me? It's actually mind blowing how autistic you are.
>>75594786>I didn't reach my end goal butStopped reading. So you failed your cut.
>>75594651I assumed it was like 10lbs with you "minmaxing the rules". You know, weighing yourself clothed and filled with shit and food before, and then fasted in the morning after. Some convenient rounding up and down and general fluctuations that happen at such a high weight... Presto.You failed your cut. You failed all your cuts. You went from morbidly obese to morbidly obese. We could pretend that this was a small victory if it was the start of the journey, but it's not. It's meaningless. You've been fooling yourself and been complacent because of shit like this for a decade. Self-respect and self-awareness, Bobby. You really need both.
>>75594766>t. blobby's schizo split personality
>>75594800>It's actually mind blowing how autistic you are.Methinks the pot doth calleth the kettle black
>>75594800>opinionsit's the rules of my federation, your personal feelings do not matter. if you gained an additional ten, you only lost twenty
The goal was 200lbs from 280lbs. 1.5 years in and his current weight is 275lbsCut was failed. Figgy managed to get within 10lbs of his goal.
>>75594804>PrestoYou're incredibly autistic>It's meaninglessThat's like, you're opinion man>>75594815Lol
>>75594819this is sadskinnyfat bobby levels of sad
>>75594823If it wasn't meaningless, then what did you gain by going from morbidly obese to morbidly obese? One bloated day and you're back at your start weight, so no, DOTS minmaxing isn't an answer. Maybe it's not meaningless. It's worse. It gives you a sense of accomplishment despite it not being one. It makes you lazy; it's something you can cope with and make yourself believe that you're progressing. It takes the urgency out of it.>autisticAutistic is the morbidly obese man with zero self-awareness.
>I lost 30 poundsnet gain: 80
>>75594840>What did I gainA small victory. One that I need to stack with others to be successful but a victory nonetheless.>One bloated dayWhat kind of bloated days are you fucking having you fat ass? 30 lbs gained in one day is 24 hour weigh in while roiding immensely and doing a huge water cut prior to weigh ins tier>No self awarenessI have more self awareness in my pinky than you have in your entire bodyReminder that this entire reply chain is because you said that losing 30 lbs doesn't count as an actual weight loss attempt, lmao
You didnt forget to do them did you?>>75594611In my unexpert opinion it might be beneficial to get the db further up your trap, almost into the neck. Better rack stability to easier press
>>75594785>*takes a dump on your face*>*you scream while full of shit*The irony in you reacting like this is that those thoughts and emotions were formed in your head and are reflective of your own inner narratives as opposed to my actions. But you already knew that, didn't you poopy face?
>trying to use logic with blobbyel oh el
>>75592660grip god>>75593140nice work>>75594239congrats>>75594611old mate in the glasses is correct in locking the lat in then rotating the trunk to get it over midline. Idk if it was mentioned (and i've never seen anyone ever talk about it in a tutorial video) but you might want to play around with active shoulder elevation similiar to how you would in a front rack. I find the it feels a lot more stable.Did you feel limited by the setup? You are wanting to step out which is good because you're pressing the dumbbell out away from the body so that allows you to get under it but with the single width mat you can't go out as wide without snapping an ankle on the edge of the mat. You end up pressing the dumbbell towards your left and transferring all the weight through your left leg, losing stability instead of being planted through both.
>>75594856>A small victory.*cracks open a cold one and grabs some hotpockets* Phew. Good job, me! We've done the bare minimum and that's a victory. Yes it's been a decade with no change and we've got massive road ahead of us, but let's just take it easy for another year. It's fine, I've proved that I can do it now! And honestly, even if I gain most of this weight back, what's the matter? I mean.. I can do it!Bobby, you are an incredibly simple human being and it's very sad that you're not even able to understand your own habits and shortcomings.>What kind of bloated days are you fucking having you fat ass? You lost 10lbs and you're incredibly heavy.
sliced my finger open yesterday on mdb when i grabbed the end cap thread.130kg clean and dip after 10x2x85kg
Bobby is just another Hank/Simon/Sean character, isn't he? The whole general is in on it and I got duped. Well done lads.
>>75594880I didn't say it's time for me to relax or that me regaining weight was a good thing. You're making all sorts of assumptions about my thoughts, but guess what, you're not me, as much as you seemingly want to be for whatever reason.>Lost 10 lbsLol, is this the new schizo meme?>>75594885Rip>>75594887Nope

>>75594445interesting, i've never programmed push press in same block as jerk/jerk variations. I tend to do them alongside strict press. i might mess around with the pp to push jerk complex, seems like it could be a fun although i hate re-racking >90%. is this a 20 week block? i ask because adding 30kg to your jerk at these weights is fairly substantial. last 12 week block where i actively concentrated on jerk revolved around a lot clean + double jerk variations since it enabled me to get accustomed to the fatigue of standing up with the bar so by week 8 i had a lot of confidence going into heavy singles.
>>75594887
>>75594973y r u cryin 2 urself
>don't do barbell strict press at all for a while, but focus is 100% overhead>push press and DB/machine press goes up>return to strict press, I am weaker>bench is somehow strongersimply epic
>>75594993>push press/db/machine press>return to strict press, I am weakerAre you failing off the chest/rack? If you are using stretch reflex for machine/db work andd leg drive for push press then you are mostly focusing on tricep/lockout. Bench you are using your pecs to drive off your chest and finishign with triceps. Makes sense that this would be stronger while you've detrained your start position/shoulders on ohp. When doing db work, machine work, seated military press you should be doing it from a deadstop/pin press to build shoulder power
>>75594973You know why schizos always win because they actually use report button instead of just crying in posts.

>>75594983Simon is S tier. Best character on /fit/
anyone boost their deadlift by just doing heavy singles? I didn’t deadlift at all before but I’ve gone from 120kg to 150kg in a few months. The problem is, I feel stuck at around 150kg for the past few weeks and recently it feels like only my grip is getting stronger. I used to have to mixed grip 140, but now I double overhand 150. btw Im 72kg body weight. Any tips at getting closer towards 180?
>>75595051forgot to add that i dont own a belt or straps, so it’s just me with no equipment
