How much can you lift in the big 4(OHP/Squat/Bench/Deadlift) and how long have you been training each of those lifts?
2/3/4/5Took me around 4 years
195/335/305/4551.5 yrs of actual programmed SBDO training on 531 SSL, but I bullshitted with high volume whatever I wanted x6/wk for a year before that.
>>77043399I'll go first I can do 205lb OHP, 325lb paused bench, 590lb beltless deadlift and 395lb beltless squat, it took about 1.5 years for the OHP, bench and deadlift but about a year for the squat
>>77043425I'm 180lb @ 5'8.5 BTW. Also the OP
>>77043406>>77043419>>77043425Finally people who actually liftLately saw retard dyels praising 1pl ohp and 2pl bench here kej
>>77043399>OHP:225lbs x 3>Squat, Bench, ShitliftDon't care.
>>770433991/2/2.5/dont deadlift7 years
>>770433991/2/Don't squat or deadlift 4 years
the only one of these i do is bench because i am not obese
1/2/3/3been lifting for 2 months
>>77043469it does not count if you are not natty btw
>>77043559No shit, 2/3/4/4 or close to it is as natty as it gets
145kg bench, 180kg squat and 220kg deadlift for 1 rep after around 4 years of active lifting. I did lift when I was younger but didn't do anything for years before starting again. Currently 33 years oldI don't understand how people claim OHP is the easiest one. I can do only 5x70kg strict. Don't know about 1 rep max but 2 plate does not seem possible without roiding
>>77043609>Don't know about 1 rep max but 2 plate does not seem possible without roidingFramelet
>>77043399Does military press count? All my other lifts suck but I can 100% get 2pl8s for more than one rep. Been doing shoulders 3-4 days a week it's kinda hard to work on bench. Which was 275x1 about 1yr ago and put it on the backburner.
>>77043399165x1 ohp, 2 years separated by many years off. worst most unbudging lift.375x7 squat, 2 yrs totalDon't bench375x4 deadlift, just started doing them again for first time since pre-coof. 1.5 years ever. Old max was 445
>>77043399335/405atg/535I fucked around like everyone on this site for a long timeOnce I realized size and strength come together when eating properly, it took about 5 years to hit those numbers
80lb/135lb/190lb/180lb for reps (3x5). don't know my 1rm on anything4 and a half months, except for deadlifts which i only started two weeks ago.>inb4 "this is who posts advice"i know my lifts are bad and my time lifting is short, so i don't post advice here.
>>77044170>3x5for everything except deadlift, which is 1x5
>>77043399OHP : 130lbsSquat : 185lbsBench: 185lbsDeadlift: I dont do deadlifts
>>77043399250 OHP390 bench570ish squat, haven't done 1 rm in a long time630 dead, only do RDL now. estimateLifting 13 years
>>770433991.9/2.75/4/5Took about a year to get to 1/2/3/4. Another 2-3 years to get to my OHP/bench stats before I did a rotator cuff and have been hard stuck ever since (almost 2pl8 ohp/3 pl8 bench). Last year my squat/dl blew up to 4/5, squat is my absolute max but deadlift might be higher I just haven't limit tested it yet. I've been cutting last year or so and I'm 23kg down so strength has decreased a bit otherwise (esp upper body) I could have reached those numbers sooner.>>77043609Genetics and how people use their muscles, generally some people end up shoulder dominant or chest dominant depending on how they lift. OHP is my strongest lift and it took only 4-5 months for me to get to 1pl8 before everything else got to 2/3/4. I was on track for 2pl8 natty recently (95kg max) before I did my rotator cuff. Now I do dumb bell Arnold presses which are much easier on the rotator cuff and still allow you to go pretty hard. I don't chase heavy sets as much anymore, currently doing 60-70kg for about 10-12 reps instead of doing 1-5 reps of 85-95kg OHP. Oddly enough the way I did my rotator cuff was actually incline bench. I introduced it into my routine so it was a new exercise and I didn't warm up, threw on 100kg straight away and went for it so beware of this if you don't currently do incline. Work your way from the beginning because the rotator cuff muscles are very small so when that load transitions from the deltoid to the rotator cuff without a proper foundation is when you get to take a trip to snap city.>>77043629No. Momentum is doing all the work with military press. OHP is strict ie: you pause at the bottom, not using lower body and making sure you're not leaning back and benching it.
>>77044717I think you have that last bit backwards, military meaning upright and strict. They used to even have to lift in time to a judge on them.That pause at the bottom knocked 10-15 lbs off of my press but without it there is just a continuum into push presses I think.
>>77043399I only know my 5 rep limit in pounds175/235/375/435 in about 2 years
>>77044170only guy here not lying or roiding
oops >>77044954>>77044317these guys not lying either
Please give tips and training advice on going from a 2.5pl8 bench to 3pl8
>>77044962I do 3x8 for my 185lb bench, no roids btw
>>77043419Always wonder how a serious lifter can end up benching more than his squat. Just built different.Me: 165/280/380/455
>>77045071How are you training now?
>>77047978nSun's linear progression
>>77043399Never max OHP but sets of 10 @ 115365 ass to grass Backsquat is my all time max but rarely max that either - working sets 315x5Just hit a 295 bench max (not a strong chest)500 lb deadlift max a few years back, haven’t gone for a new one since.I train PPL relatively consistently since 2020, with multiple breaks where I didn’t lift for months for various reasons (depression/weed use being the primary)All natty. 6’4 250 currently, pic rel.
>>77043399shoulder press 55 lb dumbbells for 6 reps standing or 65 lbs sittingincline press 80 lb dumbbells for 6 reps don't deadliftdon't squat, can leg press 5 plates for 6 repscable row around 230 for 6 repshammer curl 55 lb dumbbells for 6 reps1 plate weighted dips for 6 reps6 pull-ups (just bw)I'm 210, been lifting about 3-4 months
>>77047978nSuns is for late beginners/early intermediate lifters so you will need to switch. If you want to reach 315 you will likely have to use some periodization. Bald Omniman's program skull king is what I used to get to 315. How long have you also been plateaued
>>77048031Lose weight. You look like an ogre.
>>77048055a couple of months. I'll research that training program. Thank you
>>77048031Can't imagine walking around looking dyel. You just look fucking terrible
225 OHP, 335 Bench, 575 Squat and 650 Deadlift. Been lifting for about 10 years but only 4 or 5 has been dedicated strength training on an actual program.
>>77048133oh yeah? Show holes!
>>77048134what program do you use?
All the gyms around me are absurdly expensive so I just fuck around with dumbells
>>77048139Sorry you're upset dyel.
>>77048134>225 OHP, 335 Bench, 575 Squat and 650 Deadlift. Been lifting for about 10 years but only 4 or 5 has been dedicated strength training on an actual program.>Pic related it's me btw
>>77048140531, I bounce between a couple different variations. People meme on it but it's been very steady (albeit slow) progress for me.
>>77048031I don't fathom how someone can claim to have so much time in the gym and have zero muscle definition.
>>77043399Gross.
>60lbs/110lbs/135lbs/200lbsI just started a month ago! Wish me luck bros I'm excited for the noob gains I have ahead of me.
>>77048075>>77048133>>77048162I would bet he is more jacked than all of you
>>77048182I wouldn't put money on him looking fat and oafy at best.
>>77048149I'll look into it
>>77048199Would**
>>77043609>people claim OHP is the easiest oneBecause they're egolifting and don't realize just how much they're cheating reps a la rippletits form
>>77048242Behold, the standing incline "PressTM"and don't forget the bounce
>>77048247This is why the clean and press event was removed from the olympics btw
>>77048247>>77048249It will always be impressive though. Best lift. Just hard to judge in gay sporting events.
>>77048253It being the most impressive ties into it being so easy to cheat.
>>77048257I don't even call it cheating. Different morphologies produce radically different techniques, all irrelevant, the end result is what is good. It's just impossible to have a strict rule set for it and the rules get loki's wagered (well some lean back is o.k. how much? Should we have degrees to measure? No lean back? How far forward is no lean back? How much knee bend? What if it is really slow small 1" of bend instead of snappy 1" bend? O.k. how fast is snappy? Etc.)
>>77043469That's a perfectly normal benchmark to praise, especially since most people are framelets and need to work up to that. I know this is 4chan and anything but cynicism is frowned upon but a 1plate OHP and 2 plate bench is a decent first milestone for any consistent lifter to hit
>>77048242OHP is easier for me because I injured my chest muscles as a kid. I think people will do a standing bench press or push press and call it ohp, either unknowingly or on purpose
>>77048148>225 OHP, 335 Bench, 575 Squat and 650 Deadlift>this bodyI refuse to believe, this cannot be true please
>>77043399this girl looks very mentally stable. im sure she totally doesnt have an onlyfans
210/125/225/90kg S/b/d/p Lifted to 1/2/3/4 in my 20's then came back to lifting at 30 and go to that over the past five years while training WL120 snatch 155 c&j 180 front squat for WL lifts
>>770433993 weeks (after not seriously training for about ~2 years, used to be near 1/2/3/4):>OHP: 95>Squat: 185>Bench: 145>DL [hex bar]: 245Protip, don't stop lifting. You have to earn it all back. That said, I do think these lifts (with the exception of bench) are all a touch lower than what my actual current max is. OHP has gone up 20lbs in two weeks, my squat went up 45, DL went up 75, etc. Unsure where my actual maxes are but I'm definitely approaching them.
>>77048257I don't know why but there's something about seeing this guy lift that makes me want to try whatever he's doing. BTN press? barbell one hand snatch? anything
85/135/185/3153 sets of 5 for all but DL, 1x5 on that. I used to be near 2pl8 on squat but I cannot for the life of me get squat form down, always feel terrible doing them. Went down on weight to work on form.Switched to a different routine recently so I'll be doing different sets and no DLs for a while.
>>77050045Forgot to add>framelet>170>early 30s>1 year liftingWork schedule has me struggling to keep to a good sleep pattern, so-so on maintaining a diet to sustain progress.
>>77043399Heaviest sets so far have been (lbs) 85x6 OHP / 135x4 bench / 165x2 squat / 255x5 deadlift. I have also done +45x6 pullups and +45x7 dips on gymnastics rings.I started lifting 3 years ago (but infrequently for the last 14 months), was doing calisthenics (but mostly skipping leg day) for a couple years before that. In 2020 I was a 50 kg 182 cm skeletor. The situation has been improving.

>>77043399175/270/405/450Been training seriously for 5 years now. Lifting overall for 11
>>77053728It's the regular IG whore style of make up but trying to pretend to be diffent by looking alt. Zoomers have no soul just trends
>>77043399>idk/200kg/200kg/idk10 years for bench, i didn't do ohp at all for a very long time but working weight is 75kg which is done after doing weighted dips with +70kg. Squat same as bench since for during my first years i was only doing legpress/leg extension with barely any effort and after i started squatting and training legs properly i got injured at some point but it's going up nicely now. Deadlifted 235kg like 7 years ago and haven't trained it since then but i do rdl with 180kg for reps
>>77047056Just came back to this thread. The answer is I'm a manlet with legs that make up more than half my body
