Skinny cunt, I'm 20lbs of lean mass away from my goal.

6'5" 270-75 pounds. 18-23% bodyfat.

15 years of lifting beginning with Starting Strength then Texas Method, then using those principles of intermediate training to keep building. Staretd at 215 pounds and have put on about 50 pounds of muscle.

Squats suck. My all time best is 485 at a PL meet. Deadlifts are always good, even when they are heavy. Bench is somewhere in the middle but I get an awesome pec pump. My chest is very well developed, but my arms (long and skinny) lag behind.

As a tall fag, do NOT sleep on chinups and pullups and FFS use a full goddam ROM. You're not trying to win gym class any more - stop going for half reps to boost your numbers.

6’5 noob here.

Former 155lb lanklet in highschool. Now 206lb through eating more and half ass inconsistent strength training. Only really started taking things serious the past couple months. Currently cutting all the fat I put on. I’m down from 218, trying to go down to 195 before bulking.

I’m pretty happy with my arms, my shoulders could use a little work, but definitely have an underdeveloped chest and core.

Any tips for improving chest and core strength boys?

Depends on the person but you shouldn't bad as I was coming down from 300. And yeah here's a comp I posted in /cbt/ awhile back. My stomach wasn't bad but I lost a lot of weight out of my tits and they look sad- ergo why I want to get to 10%, I've already lost most of them but I'm not shelling out 8k for loose skin surgery.

For ref, I don't do PRs but for working sets:
Pend skwats - 405x9
Pec deck - 220x6

>Former 155lb lanklet in highschool.
Exactly where I was too; been 160lbs for most of my life since. At first I thought I would be happy at 186lbs, but now that I'm almost there, I hardly feel any different, so my new goal is 200lbs. Once I reach 200lbs, I'll probably want to go to 100kg. I'll stop once a size large shirt starts to get tight, or 32" waist pants no longer fit.

Yeah that's basically what I went for, girls liked me for being tall but I wanted more. I've dated two local FBBs in the past 4 months and they say I'm handsome/attractive and don't mention weight/size despite them surrounded by roidbros so I must be doing something right.

I'm pretty sure being taller makes you more susceptible to injury however being taller means bigger muscle bellies and therefore more mass. You know you take 2 giant chopsticks and there ya go plus the levers being bigger and generating more torque at the fulcrum.

You have to be able to lift without injury enough without needing to lower the weight.

WARM UP bros. Sitting in chairs made for manlets all day or bending over to reach sinks and stuff made for manlets is torture on the hips. Leg swings alone have made low back tweaks go from a once every 6 months thing to an almost never thing with a 2 day recovery tops. I'm setting squats PRs for the first time in like 3 years.

Never tracked diet before this cut before so i feel like i finally control all variables to make it really work.

Note on my split: I do 6 excercises each session with one set warming up and two working sets till absolute failure, that seems to be working quite well in my cut at least.

I'm running a program I put together myself. Movements that suck? None really, as long as you train hard and consistent enough. And do good form too, deadlifts are bad if you do them wrong. I would say olympic lifts like barbell snatches aren't really worth doing, the injury risk isn't worth what you get out of them. Stick to the basics too, barbell curls, dumbbell curls, preacher curls etc. You don't need a million gay variations like spider curls and weird shit with cables

I will add that I've been natty for years now, I'm not on TRT or anything, but I did run gear when I was at uni playing rugby. Don't know if you still wanna call me natty. I'm 30 now and I stopped using at 22

>How tall:
6'5", 250 lbs

>Program:
I don't really know what I'm doing.

I asked ChatGPT and this is what I've been doing the last couple weeks:

Squats 3x6
Bench Press 3x8
Incline BP 3x8
Chest Press Machine 3x8
Rope Triceps Extensions 3x10
Incline Dumbell Curls 3x10
Preacher Curls 3x10

B:
Deadlift 3x6
Chest Supported Seated Row 3x8
Pull Ups 3xF
Lat Pulldowns 3x8
Shoulder Press 3x8
Lateral Raises 3x10
Incline Dumbell Curls 3x10

Squat is 250 lbs 3x6
BP: 200 lbs 3x8
DL: 280 lbs 3x6

>Do certain movements suck:
It all kinda sucks, and progress is slow or non existant. Problem is that I can handle this weight, but if I add +20-40 lbs to Squat and DL, my core seems to collapse on the negatives (way down). Tried paused reps for a couple weeks, didn't really help.

How the fuck is that possible. Surely you lost muscle. If you were 300 at 40% you'd still have 180 lbs of lbm
If you're 170 at 10% you'd have 153
Honestly your whole thing makes no sense. If you said you weighed 200 it'd make a lot more. Do you know your ankle and wrist size, out of curiosity? Also what are your lifts? I assume you do actual lifts besides pec deck
>>
>>77508192
Another good question would be how he lost that weight -- could explain the loss of muscle.
I think I recall him mentioning 140lb preacher curls or something like that.

the question was what do you do while lifting to combat being tall. I would assume you activate your hypertrophy almonds often enough to sustain maximal muscle gain. Even a little tip like how you bench to bench all the time like twist in and bring it down to the waist or kind of develop a pocket for most of your lifting but idk.

190cm 103kg
Runnning gzcpl - more of a framework you fill and adapt to yourself, not a program

Deadlifts suck. Best I've done is 200kg. I'm so paranoid about fucking up my back so I drop it at the slightest sign of my form breaking.

My arns are 3cm longer than my height but I do not feel it helping. What I've understood is that it is less about arm length, more about whole-body size ratios. An optimal deadlifter build has the barbell sitting lower than their dick at the top of their lift. The greater the distance between the dick and the barbell, the better your build for deads.

190kg squat

135kg bench - long arms don't help probably

I've accepted that I'll forever have lanky macaroniarms unless I dedicate a separate day to them each week or train them every day I'm at the gym

Any calculation based on existing math to a number is nothing but theory and speculation, I remember barely being able to do a single pushup when I realized I had to lose weight though.

>Do certain movements suck?
Squats. My posture has suffered because I live in an environment built for manlets. Trying to fix this.
>Do you feel like a skinny cunt or a sick cunt?
Neither. My legs are muscular, my arms are skinny. My clavicles show, but the fat is still there. I'm in purgatory until I lose more weight.
