How come you rarely see women doing bench press at the gym (compared to almost any other lift) /fit/?

>>76955277I've been to the gym for years and I've literally never seen any women lifting weights. I've only ever seen pudgy housewives on a treadmill
>>76955277women rarely do barbells whatsoever, and if they do, they're doing RDLs and hip thrusts, and sometimes squats. why not bench specifically? Probably seen as "too manly"
>>76955277>How come you rarely see women doing bench press at the gym (compared to almost any other lift) /fit/?I've never seen a woman do OHP at my gym either.
>>76955277they always say they dont want bigger chest muscle and/or afraid their tits going to disappearI have no idea what women that actually bench look like, i am going to google it
>>76955277Actually I've seen a suprisingly large amount of women at my gym benching. I would say I that more often than something like lat pulldowns which I find suprising. There is even a girl who benches like 200, but she is obscenely fat, so its probably less than bodyweight for her lol.
>>76955277because most people who bodybuild train for aesthetics and female chest aesthetics need fatty tits, not big pectoralis. That's why they will spam leg workouts.
they even often come with hair bun which wouldn't allow them to comfortably place their head against bench
>>76955284haven't posted in a year wow, this schizo is still around?
>>76955277I see a decent amount benching at my gym. Obviously very low weight but there's a few around. Deads too. I think of the 'main' lifts the one I see women doing the least is ohp.
I've never seen a woman.
>>76955277You'll see women bench every once in a while. I've never once seen a woman do any kind of shoulder press.
>>76955590but building the muscle underneath the tits pushes them out to make them look bigger
>>76955277The same reason you don't do OHPVagina ownership
>>76955284>Bench>latsSo you look like shit, are annoying as Hell and are unbelievably stupid.You should kill yourself.

Seen a few women at my gym bench. They were all struggling HARD with very very light weight. And I don't even mean this in a gloating way. I mean this in a "why the fuck isn't every single female benching" because they sorely need it. Some of the upper body strength on these girls is fucking pathetic. What's the point of spamming gluteshit all the damn time if you have zero functional upper body strength, like at all. I'm not saying women should be benching 135, but jesus fuck wouldn't it be nice to able to do SOMETHING if you're attacked, or you're stuck in a folded up crashed car.
>>76955284I know it's bait but it got a good kek out of me
i love pecs on women so benching should be mandatory for all females starting around the age of puberty. ideally we'd get to the point where natty women can bench 2pl8 minimum by the time they're in their early 20s and all have huge taut, juicy pecs. then everyone else will kill me for making this rule because i am the only one into this this much.
>>76955510What do hip thrusts do? Gluteus Maximus?
>>76955510>Probably seen as "too manly"Yes, the one gym-going female I talk to (and the only one in general) says she doesn't want to get too big and bulky. Meanwhile she doesn't eat enough to grow big at all and can barely do anything upper body
>>76955925fuckin hilarious when women worry about getting too "bulky". bitch unless you hop on gear you ain't getting bulky foh
>>76955522Marilyn Amber does it and I keep pleading with her to stop. But she's a powerliftingmoron.
>>76955277Few reasons>1. They suck at it, most women will never even reach 1pl8 - and people in general hate doing lifts they suck at, which is why nobody does the GOAT leg exercise walking lunges>2. They have this stupid idea that they'll become "bulky" and magically wake up one day with 22" pythons if they do any hard upper body exercises, which is why you'll mostly see them fucking around with babby weight kettlebells or doing machines on the lowest weight>3. In general it's rare for women to be as committed to the gym as men, you don't get many who legit show up frequently. And if they're only gonna show up 1 day a week, of course they're gonna use that day for legs and ass
>>76955277Do you want big women?
>>76955915medius
>>76956571Yes
>>76955912Pec cleavage is still better than no cleavage.How do we meme flat-chested women into benching /fit/?
>>76956702It's already happening with varbies. Pilates/yoga are the gateway drugs
>>76956702I find pec cleavage hard to look at if you catch my drift.
>>76955912>because i am the only one into this this muchFalse, you have me on your side, brother
>>76955277because they have fucking tits instead of a chest, retard.
>>76957281
>>76955277All they workout are legs
>>76955522>>76955590>>76955772An ex of mine didn't even want to do push-ups thinking her breasts would shrink.Years later she said she gained weight.
>>76955277I asked my girlfriend, who competes in bodybuilding, and she explained to me that it’s due to women’s clavicle angle, which causes their pectoral muscles to be engaged in many exercises, a bit like the lower back for people who train with bad form
