>about to be 35 next year
>still haven't benched 3pl8
it is now or never i feel
i have a pretty DYEL frame but could bench 2pl8 x 10 at 84 kg and 176 cm (185 lbs, 5'9")
dieted down to 80 kg flat this year and my bench dropped drastically to 7-8 reps 2pl8, arms also shrunk to sub 16 inches, visible abs are still waaay off. felt like an overall loss for little gain
is there truth in "no bulking when older" or should i just do it anyway combined with smolov?

I’m 176,4cm and 75kg and I’m hardstuck at 100kg x 4 reps and I don’t know what to do. I got a little leaner in the last few weeks because I got tired of fucking eating 3.2k calories a day and cooking all day but I feel the same way, im 33 and the weights are just not going up. I already take creatine and l citruline but I don’t wanna give up yet. What do? Also if you have dyel frame at that weight you must be fat .

>>76941988

>thinly veiled feels/bar/weekend thread
Breh I'm 36 soon and only recently benched over my bodyweight, 10kg away from 2pl8. I've been lifting on and off since I was 18. Stop obsessing over numbers and start preparing for the next decade of your life. Do you want to be in your 40s with a healthy back and a healthy heart?
>muh abs
80% genetics, 15% diet, 5% lifting.

>cooking all day
Buy an oven and a freezer, cook enough for 20 meals every weekend. Each week you will have an extra 6 meals which will add up. Cook something else every weekend, and your freezer will start filling up by all sorts of meals. Once your freezer is full, start cooking only 14 meals to keep an equilibrium. You can skip some weekends obviously but you will have to make up for it later.
If you eat 3 meals a day, either adjust the numbers, or make the third meal on the spot. For me I just eat 4 eggs each day regardless of my mean dishes.

Everyone has a peak. Did you expect to lift that much into your 50s? Be grateful you didn't have a serious injury going into your 40s because you chased some numbers that won't impress anyone anyway.

That's still crazy impressive

>>76941867
Nope. I finally hit 3 plates as a natty at age 46. Keep grinding, faggot.

>>76944204
Thats because youre a lazy cunt.

I am an old fuck in my 50s. Married. Kids. Mortgage, FT Job. Over the past 40 years I have gotten better, stronger, bigger and leaner. Slowly and consistently. Because I never gave up. I kept learning And I kept grinding.

Unlike your lazy entitled ass, I didnt bench 420 at age 25. I was struggling to hit 225 for the first time at age 26. And every pound thereafter has been a long, slow struggle and slog. Currently at 375, paused. Competition bench. Will probably hit 405 close to age 60.
