She's benching 70kg, if you're benching anything below that you should be ashamed.
>>746302529>70kgin English, doc
>>746302529it's 40kg, just say you've never been to a gym kek
>>746302529you realize we can see the weights right?it's 95lbs. 25 on each side and the bar weighs 45

>>746302529That's 40kg
She's benching 95.I can bench about 135 and that's it. I'm better at doing pushups tbdesu
>>746302689nobody at rockstar has been to the gym either, seeing how she's putting the bar right on her solar plexusthat's not how you bench
>>746302529That's 30kg assuming the bar weights around 10 kg
>>746302529Did you barely manage a 70 kg? that's cute. Maybe someday you will be a real woman.
>>746302689yeah I was gonna say, 10+10+20=40, wtf was OP adding up lol
you guys must be rage baitingbarbell rod weight: 20kggreen weight: 25lb, 10kgtotal 40kgchat reckons a young adult should be able to do push (including weight of rod)male 40-60kgfemale 20-35kg

>>746303650>female 20-35kgHoly delusion
>>746302529>25lbsThat's 10kg, not 70 dipshit.
>>746302529I'm a weak fat fuck. I remember in high school I barely could bench the bar. I'm 34 now and I don't know what I could bench, but I don't even think I could do 95lbs. I might be able to do 60lbs. I only know because I've lifted some 50lb-60lb boxes and I was barely able to carry them far. I'm not trying to make myself feel better by saying this, but I think a lot of men would struggle to lift 50-60lbs. You might think that's ridiculous, but there are a lot of weak adult men. A lot of women probably can't even lift 35lbs.
>>74630417420% of effort gets you 80% thereIf you just commit like half an hour every week you'll quickly see improvements (it's always fast at first), start with just the bar if you have to, people tend to overestimate how hard it really is to get to like a basic decent strength level from nothing, I'm not talking like powerlifter level I mean something you need to be able to do in order not to break your bones the moment you turn 50
WHOAAAAA THIS WOMAN IS LIFTING A 50LB WEIGHT USING BOTH ARMS?YAAS QUEEN SLAY, HOLY SHIT BASED
>>746302529It literally says 25lb...
>>746302529>70kg>95lbs?????
>>746302529And how much do you benchod? Who is your father?
>>746302529So not even half of her own bodyweight then? KEK
>>746304648>If you just commit like half an hour every week you'll quickly see improvementshalf an hour of exercise a week is not even enough to maintain anything, much less improve. are you saying feel-good bullshit to make him waste his time?
>farts on OP
>>746302529faggots (literal) care about benchreal niggas care about deadlift
>>746305038Deadlifts are for fatties and people who abuse leverages/belts and bend their back out of shape. OHP is the true mans lift.
>>746303187Normally when someone says "I benched a plate", you assume it's 45 lbs. But this puny bitch is using a 25 lb plate. Maybe OP assumed too. Even so, that would've been 60 kg, not 70
>>746305038You mean OHP, right?
>>746305223>you're fat if you pick hundreds of pounds of weight off the floorDumbest post on 4chan right now.

>>746305336Fat people pick themselves off the floor sometimes when they're done sucking up oreo crumbs, deadlift is a good name for what they already do to drag their fat worthless asses out of bed every morningMore like a everyone else would be better of if you were deadlift
>>746302529She's clearly benching 50, retard.
>>746305336Literally yes, being fat is a massive advantage in deadlifting. Have fun bouncing weight off of your gut while the men are picking stuff up over our heads.
>>746305420he obviously meant 45lbs plates, not 45lbs total, hence why he commented that she's using 25lbs platesare you dumb? he even said it would be 60kg total for 1pl8
>>746302591One british/american 10 years old (on the skinny side)
>>746305535Deadlift is easy to work up. Even women can do 1/3rd their weight. Even your faggot ass could pick up 30 or 40lbs.>>746305540>ugh you're FAT if you pick up heavy objects>>746305564>bouncing weight off your gutYOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT A DEADLIFT IS YOU STUPID FROGPOSTING NIGGER

>>746302529I can do 155 lbs, but I’ve been stuck there for a while at <10 reps and I don’t have a spotter
I can bench 230lbs for reps but any more than that and my shoulder wants to die, envy people who can do 300+ like nothing
>>746305710>Ur moms POV
>>7463025912 green plates so 50lbs + the 45lb bar. Shes a woman so its actually probably a 35lb bar so 95-85lbs. Do you even lift?
>>746305308Yeah I mean you. Unless you're the second frogposter acting in bad faith.
>>746302529you should be able to do that and 50-70 push ups at a time, but you also should carry a weapon with you; at least a folding knife. real life has no referees and someone else could always grab you from behind while you try your MMA moves in a real fight. always remember that. end it quickly
>>746305696>YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT A DEADLIFT ISIt's where you squat down to pick a heavy barbell up off the floor and because you have such a fat gut your leverage makes the lift much easier allowing you to lift more weight.You are clearly a fat ass.

>He can't read the 25 on the plateIf she's using a man's bar it's only 42.6kg. Though the game is going to have her knocking out men with a single slap to the forehead, but 42 is actually pretty bad if she's supposed to be doing this regularly. For women if rockstar can't add, and meant for this to be 70kg that's actually very good.
>>746305710the bar lines up with his nipples, which is correct. you want the bar over your nipples, or slightly below, depending on your buildthe bar in >>746302689 is clearly put either on the very end of her ribcage, or her solar plexus. either way, you wouldn't be able to lift shit from that position
>>746306032300-600lbs fatass, shocking.
25 lbs = 11.33981 kg ≈ 11.3 kg11,3 kg + bar usually being 20 kg = 31,3 kgJust shut it down.No, you don't "count each side", doing 10 kg means you have two 10 kg plates on each side. 31,3 kg is a number purely for nörds (or something to that extent).

>>746305540you are crashing out because you are a dyel, fat people can't even do a normal deadlift they pull sumo to accommodate their male pregnancy. You probably burn more calories deadlifting than any other standard compound lift
>>746306253Holy reading comprehension, read the paragraph and especially the last sentence, nigger.
>>746305809Wait that's it?Women ask me to lift shit like that for then all the time.
I've been stuck at around 195-215 for a fucking while and I just want to get to 225 for reps (I did it once last year but couldn't get to a state where I could rep it). What's the secret? I feel like the first rep going down always fucks up my tricep (it sorta starts to want to snap not literally and when it does it's not "painful" but it's just sore after). I'm thinking maybe a wider base but then my elbows get a bit flared out when I try that. It's literally only the first rep of every set though. 2nd and 3rd once I get the first one going doesn't feel too bad.

The annoying thing is that again it's ONLY the first fucking rep. Maybe I need a rocket launch or something but I don't want to ask someone for that everytime I want to setup more than 185lbs. (starts happening around here). Once that first rep is done my tricep suddenly goes "oh right yeah I know how to do this without snapping"

>>746302529Never liked benching. Eventually started hurting my wrists and I never did over 60kg which is kind of crazy.Loved doing cable flies for chest instead.
>>746307091That seems like something a newfag would do. Don't you think?

>>746302529That's like 100 pounds.
>>746307519Im not the newfag fatty, you can cope with that however much you like.
idk if everyone here is just pretending to be retarded or actually retardedshes doing 40KG. 2x10KG green weights + 20KG bar (assuming its a men's bar)
>>746302529I stopped caring after I benched 100kg, current goal is to strict press 100kg
>>746307687>everybody who disagrees with me is fatYou are too young to be an oldfag. It is okay to admit being new. Be humble.
I have a fucked up reconstructed left elbow so there's a hard limit on what I can bench. doing two 45's starts popping my elbow in a way that's concerning, not worth pushing past that.

>>746307846Being fat isn't healthy either.
>>746307318just bench in squat rack with safeties or bail out like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbKVMu60Hckthat being said dumbbells are better for your shoulders anyway, so as long as the weight is not limiting you it's okbut you are probably a dummy who drops dumbbells seeing as how you don't understand safeties nor bailing out on bench, so watch this video too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVh8i5G-XC4 or this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hvzqRgRd8Qthe last two videos are ones i found randomly but they illustrate the point well enough. i had a good video on that bookmarked somewhere but can't find it now
Imagine having to lift to compensate for your undesirable face, height, and personality
>>746302689Actually girl bars are usually 15kg not 20kg. So that's 35kg total or about 80 pounds.

>>746307358
>>746302529I'm benching your mum.
>>746307317I don't count both plates on principle, just threw the bar in to give more leverage. Also it doesn't fucking matter anyway, what matters is whether you can do more kilos than you did previous time.>>746307387Then it's 10 kilos, because 5+5=10, duh

>>746308084It is disappointing how newfags can only spam their favorite buzzword or buzzphrase over and over and over and over, like a chatbot.
>>746307998It's not that I don't know how to bail out, it's just that if I did bail out, one of the instructors would just gonna come and ask "Why didn't you ask for a spot bro?"I used to drop them, yeah, then a guy who was much bigger than me told me that dropping them like that would eventually do my shoulders in so now, upon failure, I bring one onto my chest while gently laying (as gently as I can do it at least lmao) the other on the ground and then kick myself up. Probably not the best way to do it, but it's been pretty easy on my shoulders so far and it's autonomous.

>>746308831meanwhile, what newfags think a deadlift is
>>746309442kek
>>746309005or just, you know lift weights every once in a while or roll on your side like a toddler. either one works really, but don't tell my geriatric sponsors
>>746302529Benching is pointless.It doesn't translate to practical strength you can actually use, and it fucks up your shoulders.The patrician press exercise is the overhead press. It's ten times harder and works basically the same muscles.You don't see olympic lifters benching for a reason.
>>746309005That's not the most retarded part, there's safeties that aren't properly set so this wouldn't have happened but because there are safeties, she couldn't push the bar to one side and bail even if you use collars
>>746305782kek
>>746306026literally jason schrier lol
>>746309627
>>746309627I'd expect a woman to be benching. They often waste their time on pointless crap. She probably saw a male doing it and thought "i'm a big boy too!" and wanted to show the world how girls can do it just as well (you know, like how a child thinks).

>>746302890Just keep at it and increase weight incrementally. Also how’s your form when you bench? You want your arms tucked down slightly rather than the straight out, elbows parallel to your shoulders form you see people do a lot.
>>746305038If you have this attitude you probably ego lift and your deadlifts are probably slowly destroying your back. Have fun with that in 5-10 years.
>>746310715??????????
>>746309505Theoretically all of this would determine what you are training for anyway. The game says she was a trained female fighter and a fighter would not really go for one rep maxes on a bench anyway they do lighter loads and train for endurance and do explosive lifts because going for the max puts too much strain on their body. What I have noticed personally by comparing people is that powerlifters lose their speed and their joints seem to get much tighter and less flexible the more and more they train and bulk. Sure they are fucking beasts and are strong as an Ox though.

>>746302591225
>>746302529This is weight very much in line with what women could realistically bench without them being buff gym bunnies. So this is actually very acceptable weight for her that I could believe. I guess these people really did do their homework to make this game believable and not insulting.
>>746307064And each other, don't forget about that. We're like siblings who give each other endless shit, but if someone from the outside tries he same shit to one of us we close ranks

>>746314240Not many if at all
>>746302591those are gonna be my go-to pants
>>746302591Just look at the picture bro. The plates are 25lbs. The bar is 45lbs. She is lifting 95lbs. For those that are not familiar with a gym, that is a weight virtually every man that is not disabled can easily press, however for the average woman this is believe it or not quite a lot to press unless they are athletic.
>>746314750did she break his nose with one left handed punch? saw blood hit the floor.
>>746314826>counting the bar
>>746305710>correct form>suicide grip
>>746314240I still post, though rarely since authentic communication is difficult. I would say a fair amount do if they were genuinely interested in posting at the time, though they are drowned out.
>>746314895Yes, you count the bar when you state the weight being pressed. What the fuck are you talking about, where the hell do you live that it is normal to omit the bar's weight?
>>746306216lurk moar before posting again
>>746302591Bout tree fiddy
>>746303759that's a relatively small amount of mcflurry for an average person, no?
I maxed at 280 ten years ago. Havent tried any PRs since but i still maintain lift and am the same weight. Probably could hit 230That little 95 shit in ypur pic is what i do skullcrushers with though
>>746303187>he doesn't use the the 50kg barngmi

>>746306607>apartment gym>only way in is to have key fob to unlock the door>she claims she let him in because she's seem him in the apartment's gym before and assumed he forgot his key fob>he does not live at that apartment complex and was already facing a court case for theftWhat would have happened if she was on her way out of the gym, some other weaker woman was there, and she let this guy in as she left to 'be nice'? Fucking retard woman. Your apartment's gym has secured doors for a fucking reason, because you're in Tampa and there's methheads everywhere. If they can't get themselves in, you aren't supposed to be getting them past the security designed to protect you.About as bad as the dumbfucks who share their passwords or PIN numbers with someone then surprisedpikachuface when that person uses the info to fuck them over.
>>746302759>>746303058>>746303650Is it normal for the bar to be that heavy? I have a bench and associated gear but the bar is only 7.5kg.
>>746308831it's pretty hard for this to happen unless you're retarded. Don't max out alone and just stop when you feeling like you're starting to give out
>>746317232heavier bars for heavier weights, i think they're right that's a 45lb bar at least from my experience it looks rightthe bars you're talking about are usually thin down the whole length of the bar, but they'll fold if you pack high weight on them, i broke my brother's first bar doing that lmao
>>746305710Based camera man for not spotting him (who am I kidding he doesn't have a spotter at all)

>>746306607>Lucia Gym boss fight
bench presses are easy
Is 2 days a week enough to increase bench? I'm beat up from MMA training.
I'm pretty proud of my 185lbs bench press, yeah.
>>746318487Yeah. Obviously focus on hypertrophy and proper form, though.
Are deadlifts impressive? That's where I excel at for some reason. Managed 380 on my max PR and climbing.
>>746309005I mean she didn't learn how to fail above all else. Always leave one in the tank if you're not being spotted.
I only made it to 132lbs during the 4 months I went to the gym...I had to stop because I couldn't pay the membership anymore so I probably lost all the progress I made
>>746302529
Why are they so brutal?
>>74630259150 AR-15s
I don't really feel burnt or tired but my lifts aren't really progressing and I am feeling a bit gassed in BJJ (a little too easily now). I usually deload every 6 weeks and that seems enough for recovery but I want to plan this a little better. Any advice? /fit/ kinda sucks asking for actual advice here.>Sunday: BJJ/Cycling (Long Distance Easy)>Monday: Lift (SQ/PU/OHP/Face Pulls/Hip Thrust)>Tuesday: Cycling (Harder Tempo Intervals)/BJJ>Wed: Full Rest>Thursday: Cycling (Hard Tempo Intervals)/BJJ>Friday: Lift (BP/Chest Flys/Tricep Dips/Cable Rows/Zottman Curls/Abs Workout) / BJJ>Saturday: Lift (DL (usually drop this once every two weeks due to volume)/SQ (lower weights)/DB Lateral Raises/Calf Raise / BJJAll major lifts are around 80-90% 3x3, all accessories are 3x8 or 12 60-70%. I was thinking of swapping wed for BP lift day and do double BJJ that day but not sure if that's plausible.
>>746302529My hand is still broken. And how would any of us be browsing the internet WHILE we're benching.Think before you post.Retard.
why is /fit/ so fucking bad and where do I go for actual lifting advice?
>>746319761turn that mirror back around on /v/ or any other part of this website kek
I mog tf outta everyone in this thread btw. Pic related, pic I took just the other day.
>>746307329it's 25 LBS you fucking blind retard. So 10 kg which is also written on the plate for fuck sake.
>>746319921if this guy dropped the glasses he'd look good
>>746319921ive seen a female version of this but i can't post it because tits

>>746319761>where do I go for actual lifting advice?the fucking gym you moron
>>746302529it clearly says 25 lbs on there, it's 90 lbs (40kg) at most
>>746320074Well I'm from >ssgomad and I've never heard anyone use the phrase >counting the bar
>>746302529that's a starting weight for a malnourished untrained 13 year old like 3 sessions in
>>746302890>I can bench about 135 and that's it.I am stuck on the same boat. Its weightlifting purgatory.
>>746302761kek
>>746320115Because going to the gym for 4 years straight didn't change my life at all. I hit my ceiling because I have relatively low testosterone, a couple of my friends noticed that I was slightly more toned looking, and that's it. My life is exactly where it was before, probably worse, and I still want to kill myself.
>>746320365it's 42.7 kg since the bar is 20kg usually, there are lighter ones though, but yeah a women without roids who can bench 70kg is very very rare. One professional natty athlete I know maxed out at 60kg
>>746302689Bro this whole thread is exposed. Just shut it down
>>746320206from the smelly indians and old fucks who waste space or the brocoli kids hyping each other up recording each other barely lifting up the bar
>>746302529>70kg>50lbs of wights>40lb weight barGG retard
>>746305223>>746305038>>746305336The average adult male should be able to complete 1/2/3/4.>1pl8 OHP>2pl8 bench>3pl8 squat>4pl8 deadNote how the expectation is that the highest weight is for deadlift, because it is by far the easiest one to complete. Generally you're drawing on your whole body and in particular your legs for the last two, whereas the first two are reliant on upper body and arm strength. I haven't done serious weight lifting in like seven years
>>746302529>>746305038Real question, is there a point in using a bar bell instead of just two dumb bells? I see way too many videos of idiots offing themselves on barbells. I Dont want a bar that is literally about as heavy as I can manage just above my neck or chest just waiting for one slip up to fucking break my bones or choke me out. Yah, I know you should only do a weight you are comfortable with and have a spotter, but still, it seems conceptually retarded.
>>746305038I care about neither faggot. Ultra high reps because big muscles is unironically gay
>>746302759The bar is probably one of those 15 pound ones if we are being totally honest
Its time to become calisthenics pilled, weight training destroys your joints and shit at least they did for me
>>746322408nobody mentioned ultra high reps, faggot

>>746302529If I weigh 150kg and can do a push up, is it likely I can bench 70kg?
>>746325807there's only one way to find out :)
>>746305809Thats nothing>Do you even lift?You must be either a leaf or a bong because our weights are measured in pounds
>>746302529that's 40kg, dyel
>>746322390because it's not the same exercise. you might think "but my hands are in the same spot and the motion is the same" but it's not the same exercise and doesn't have the same effect on your pectorals. similar to how pull ups and pull downs seem like the same thing but are quite differentand the whole "i don't want to die under the bar" is easy to fix, it's called "lower the weight till you can do it and use proper form"
>>746326045and euros use those gay thin kilo plates because the thick plates scare them, pussies
>>746302529/v/iggers can't even bench the bar lol

>>746302529she needs to be benching this dick
i think there's a lot of overlap between /v/ and /fit/ because this thread is almost identical to the average /fit/ thread
>>746328987To be fair everyone wants to be /fit/. Also /fit/ and /pol/ have a lot of overlap and /pol/ can't stay on topic for shit which is why the gamer word used to be filtered on /k/.
>>746328987>guys love vidya and working outwho would of thought
>>746302689Thanks for saving me from saying it.
it makes sense that all the jeets shilling this game would think that is heavy
>>746324542I knew a girl who was kind of a beast but "clearly repressed lesbian bible girl D1 hockey player" would be a strange concept for a GTA protagonist, even though she was a fun coworker at our accounting job
>>746322390There is no chance of a barbell killing you unless you ego lift. And that is entirely forgetting what the other guy said about it obviously not being the same exercise.
>>746305938Fat guts are a disadvantage on the deadlift, but aid the squat.
>>746317232Normal bars weigh 20kgYou have the chemo pencil neck starter set.
>>746302591subhumanoid metricels sneething
>>746302529I can't even bench the bar without it wobbling around lmao
>>746325807extremely likely
I've only just started benching and I never feel it in my chest, only my arms. What am I doing wrong? I keep my arms slightly tucked and I get the bar down to my sternum.
>>746302591Kek you got the euromutts and thirdworlders seething.
>>746302529Not everyone's a roid monkey like you OP.
>>746305809>45lb barwhat the fuck kind of bar are you pretending to use? Also I've never heard anyone who lifts include the coupe of pounds the bar weighs in their total weight lifted
I've never worked out in my life so my max currently is ~20kg
>>746305038Real niggas life the dead
>>746306607Why not crush his skull with something heavy are women retarded?
>>746305283>Maybe OP assumed tooIt literally says 25lbs in the picture. There's no excuse for OP being illiterate.
>>746302529she is clearly benching only 20kg, are you retarded? the green plates are 10kg each you dyel
I went from 80 to 70 kilo bench bruh... You telling me I am sissy level now?
>>746302591metric/imperial shitposting is so great. america literally thought it was a better system and forced every other country to adopt it after ww2, then just gave up themselves because "it was too expensive" (during the most prosperous time in america history, no less). so anyone defending americas retard ass backwards ways is actually calling america retarded because as before, AMERICA is the the reason everyone else adopted the superior system.
Every man should be able to bench their body weight. If you can't bother to work out then at least stop being obese.
>>746337942What about women? Do they have strength standards?
>>746302529i tried to lift once, just the barbut my arms hurt a lot the next day so i never did it again
>>746302529>10kg, 10kg = 70kg americans....
>>746338008all women are queens
>>746338008Yeah but since female body has evolved to be optimal at a higher fat percentage, their bench press is not body weight. A 70~kg female should be able to bench 40kg tho.
>>74633823270 kilos?! That's too much mass for a woman
>>746302529With this game, you won't even bench one disc.
>>746338274Depends on the country. But yeah its on the higher end. Should have typed 60
>>746307798Curling hatred is way too overblown. My OHP and bench stalled out until I started curling. It's fine to do, especially for beginners.
>gymcel thread
>>746309442Lmao
Last time I went to the gym, I was struggling with only the bar, no weights on it.Also lost at arm wrestling against my 20 years younger niece the other day.I'm by far the weakest poster on the website, people are pushing me to transition for my own sake but I keep refusing.
>>746338753So you'd go from being weak to being a weak faggot in a dress? Don't do that. Just buy some free weights and work out at your own house at your own pace. You can do a lot of exercises with just some dumbbells along with bodyweight exercises. I was really weak in high school, I couldn't even lift a 10kg dumbbell. But I just did what I described and improved dramatically in a few months.
>>746305003I have basically been doing an extremely basic 10 minute/3x a week PPL set for almost a decade. That's all it really takes to be stronger than like 75% of the population. I do recumbent bike cardio for an hour every day though and that is 10x better for my legs.
>>746338915I tried, I have 10kg dumbbells right besides me, trained on them for like a year.Ate a lot of red meat and chicken too, didn't get stronger, got thinner instead.
I can bench 101kg according to this app
God i wish she would bench me.
>>746320412they are memes from the same era
>>746307517Why try to better yourself in a gym if people will just mock you for it?
>>746338973I wouldn't even worry about the food. Just eat whatever you normally eat. Try this for a month, 3 sets of 15 dumbell curls at a weight that is difficult but manageable, 100 push ups, 3 sets of 15 dumbbell rows, 3 sets of 15 dumbell OHP, and 100 free squats. Make it a rotation of exercises that you complete 3 times and break the push-ups and squats up accordingly. That's roughly what I did, 6 days a week with Sunday for rest. When you get stronger you can add some weight to your squats and get a barbell.
>>746320059being 35 doesn't mean you should risk injury
>>746307463Get better anon.
>>746305038>t. powershitter
>>746319615that's a ton of volume, are you sure you're eating enough?>>746328687>because it's not the same exerciseyou might rival the posters from picrel in intelligence
>>746303058why assume that when bars normally weight 15 or 20 kg
>>746302529that's not 70kg, that's 40kg you fucking doofus
>>746335517you were at the sissy level and you dropped to girl level... i'm so sorry man... or rather, sis...
She should gain 70kg instead
i went to the gym for the first time in over a year and could barely bench 60 kg. not a proud moment as a 31 year old man. ill get back to it in a week and hopefully ill be at lmao 2 plate before 2027.
>paying money to lift heavy objects up and down
>>746302529Imagine willing subjecting yourself to looking at that niggress mug, fucking ew brothers
I did 225x18 at age 34 about two years ago. On the bar I could do about 300 it’s just such. Mental gap to go to three plate I want to try steroids but what’s the point now at age 36? The most I ever deadlifted was about 400-500 pounds. The amount of effort required to go up in weight is annoying so I stopped caring about the gym.
>>746340689What's the point of using pounds like that? Use stone for amounts that large.
I have been stuck at 1pl8 for some time now but I only do flat bench (2/3x full body split per week) what should I add to improve?
>>746305809I lift and I can tell you that I've never seen a weight labeled with kg. We use lb on our weights, faggot.
>>746342331eat moresleep more
>>746342458>eat moreI’m already a little higher on bf% (173cm at about 73kg) so I am eating around maintenance for recomp gainsIs it really better to bulk then cut even if it means I would go up to being overweight>sleep moreHaha …
>>746342331try to crank out additional reps by resting 10-15 seconds after you fail>>746342439most plates have both kg and lbs measurements printed on them
>>746333454Are you engaging your back/locking your shoulder blades in position as you lift? Trying focusing on that with lighter weights to get a feel for it if not
>>746304174It's not hard, just realize it's not an effort thing when literally benching the bar but consistency, you just keep doing it and "magically" it gets easier randomly a month down the line and so on.
>>746340689deadlift sucks destroys your back >>746342331either eat more and slow progress or trt
>>746342971>deadlift sucks destroys your backLower the weight, then. And remember to stretch afterwards.
>>746343065>Lower the weight, then.literally no point in doing them if you're not on gear.
>>746343136I do them because I fucked my back up over years of poor work practices. They help a lot. If you only care about lifting as much weight as possible then you're asking for injuries.
Why is a plate generally referring to 20kg weights when 25 ones exists? Why stop short of one size from what is typically available as the heaviest at every gym?
where did she pull her phone from? was it in her.... you know.....
>>746305809That bar looks pretty thin in her hands, definitely a women's bar.
>>746306447well, at least I'm on the chart
>>746312308What's heavier a pound of feathers or a pound of steel?
>>746343945£1 of steel weighs way more.
>>746343781probably because the standard oly bar is 20kgwith 20kg plates you keep the increments of 20 in weight total
>>746302591About 1 drying machine.
I bench 73kg because I'm always benched
>>746309442>pushing down on the barLAMO
>>746340034My TDEE is around 1800 calories and I'm definitely eating like 2000-3000 every day. Probably near the 3000 mark (I fucking hate calorie counting can log it up until I get home and I just munch down whatever is there because I'm so fucking exhausted from work). It's funny when I started BJJ half a year ago I thought I could finally lose the 30lbs I wanted but then I ended up gaining 10lbs....Tbh, if it's anything that I wish I could improve is my sleep, been only getting 5-7 hours and just can't find the time to make it 8+. If I take a week off work I'm STILL fucking sleeping 5-7 hours for some reason and I'm just like fuck it I'm already up. Mid-day naps help with recovery though.
I benched 2pl8 and never benched again. Now I do dumbbells which are fun and more comfy. I get more out of 90 lb dumbbell benching (90lb in each hand)
>>746302529I don't bench at all because of my crippling social anxiety and paranoia
Why are there so many gymrats on this site now? This place was supposed to be for lanky wristlets and 300lb fatasses who get winded from typing out why PC is the superior gaming platform.

>>746302529>here's your female protag bro
>>7463454312000-3000 might not be enough with all that activity, but it also depends on your job and how long and hard you actually push yourself. this guy https://youtu.be/CH6LFYHvD5g?t=687 eats over 4k just to maintain because he's physically active>but then I ended up gaining 10lbs....weight doesn't mean much, it could be muscle and not fat for all you know. only body fat percentage tells you whether you actually got fatter or not>sleepyou might be conditioned to wake up at certain times by the alarm clock. or you go to sleep too late and get woken up by sunlight/noise. i have similar problemfor what it's worth i started taking 200mg of magnesium glycinate before bed, and while it doesn't extend my sleep time, it helps me wake up less throughout the night, which does seem to translate to more sleep overall

I'm a 70 kilo tall ass auschwitz skellyMy personal bests are>70kg bench>100kg squat>135kg deadliftNot the best numbers ever, I'm lazy and rather beat my meat than go to gym but I'm somewhat proud of these records
my best and favorite lift is also the most useless, the OHPi OHP more than i bench, 80kg (176lb)so yeah i have a weak weak fag benchlove to OHP, love it but most say it's useless for everything that isn't OHPand i do it from the ground most times, feels better
>>746302529That's 40kg. 50kg if you count the bar, which you shouldn't. And benching that as a one-rep-max easy. It's tougher to actually bench it as part of a 3x8-12 bench pressing routine.
Why don't you faggots go out and do some actual physical exercise instead of ingesting goyslop supplements and hitting the gym for muh gains that are completely useless, since I could knock you the fuck out without a second thought if you looked at me the wrong way.

I'm estimating usually 600ish per hour so 800ish for the full session (we usually go a little over). I'm getting post nasal drip and I'm pretty sure I have sleep apnea so that's fucking me a lot. Hoping to improve but honestly might drop bench for a while to just do dumbbell press. Just want to do 225 for reps damn it ;_;

>>746302759are you retarded or blindit's 25 pounds / 10 kgs you can see it on the weights very easilyif you want to be very generous you can say the bar itself weighs 5kgshe's lifting 25kg at mostthats a sack of potatoes you can carry on each shoulder if your back is straightits pretty good that rockstar isn't letting her bench 250 pounds and is instead reflecting on how much a woman can actually move25kgs is kind of impressive i wonder what her max will bei also wonder if you'll still be able to beat the shit out of males in hand to hand considering she's a "fighter" or if she will get bodied compared to jason
Why is /fit/ actually so bad? Where do I go for actual fitness discussion without it being too elitiest but also not basic bitch tier.
I have never messed with anything with a bar but do quite a bit of dumbbell curls/lifts and such.
>>746314917suicide grip is superior
>>746302591God I love waking up during yuropoor hours. Holy fuckin seethe. Euro trannies really didn't like this post,kek
>>746346865Hot
>>746351052I think my all time max was like 215. For whatever reason I have great pec genes but shit strength genes, everyone always thinks I can bench more than I actually can. I've spent years trying to get it up to something appreciable, starting at 12 when I couldn't even move the bar. Setback after setback, it sucks so much. I wish I had a body that didn't break my heart.
>>746352119Oh, didn't mean to tag with that one sorry.
i am weak as hell , i could probably max 45-50kg at the bench. sometimes i wonder if i have some genetic disorder where i literally don't have pectorals, i don't really feel them or see them. the rest of my muscles are small too, i do maybe 5x15kg bicep curls, but my pecs might not even exist at all
>>746350904>thinks coming here last year makes him an oldfag
>>746318352>that pose>for 130kglmao, whatwhy this clown acting like hes benching 400kg world record

>>746305710the bottom pic hand grip is gonne result in him dropping the bar onto his ribs which is not fun. use thumb to hook around
>>746302529I don't know I weight 90kg and I only do one arm Push ups
>>746353734anon.. its clearly a meme video, are you autistic? sings of autism are when you can't detect sarcasm and jokesgo to the doc and get on meds
strength is so fucking overrated, mobility is so important but nobody ever focuses on it its always hypertrophyif you have big muscles but move like a robot you are a clown and probably lift like a clown too
Gymcels are fucking insecure lmao
>25LBSx2 = 70kgplease kill yourself OP
>>746354028from the old indian fucks that do meme workouts or the brocoli kids barely lifting the bar???

>>746314917>It doesn't use suicide gripI know you are weak.
>>746308831>using locks for 30lbs of weightwhy do retards do this and think that is superior? Its the same shit as squatting in a smith machine like motherfucker its the illusion of safety you're actually making shit way fucking worse if you do end up failing
>>746302529GTA6 is already kino satire.A bunch of fat weakfags are going to make Jason built like a bodybuilders then evade the mirror soon after.I fucking love it lmao
>>746354729>check his channel>he's shitting on doctor mike>oh fuck doctor mike fell in the AI unga baloogaFUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
>>746302529/fit/izen here. She is benching 95lbs or 43kg. Which is not crazy impressive at all for a woman who is in moderately good shape. She's basically doing entry level weight for an adult woman.This is assuming she's using a standard barbell, however there are ones that are 15kg instead of the standard 20.4kg/45lbs.
>>746302529/fit/ is gayast board on this site
>>746309442>Still upLegend
>2pl8s for 10please do not tell me i'm actually the strongest person in this thread someone please post a better bench than me
>>746302529That's 40kg and I could lift that on my first time at the gym
>>746354939mister mike is literally obsessed with AI. speaking of him, check out solomon nelson and lyle mcdonald.
>>746355359yeah and teenage kids were able to do 225lbs on their first day.
>>746308831hot. whats her name?
>>746355425ty ty. I remember back in my uni days I used to mostly watch him and squat university. sad that he went full retard. I'll give these channels a watch. not really into the bodybuilding scene but just looking to up my lifts and be more functional. honestly thinking of transitioning to calisthentics because planches look way more cooler than a big 4.
>>746355167I can do 265 for 5 reps.
I started going to the gym last year and only really kept it up because i can see the maternity aerobics from the sauna
>>746355535thank you
>>746355439I have no idea what a lb is but good for them
>>746314826>that is a weight virtually every man that is not disabled can easily press70 kilos is literally how much I weigh. I don't go to the gym, is it really easy to press a person's worth of weight? I feel like I couldn't do it, not immediately.
>>746302529i never benched in my life so i guess she's stronger
>>746355619any adult man who has any history of being physically active (not just roooooning) should be able bench 1pl8 or more if not by the end of their first trip to the gym then by the second Its a meme on /fit/ that below 180 or so is victim weight and its not memed for no reason, going down to 140 or something is light enough to get manhandled if someone does get solid purchase on you; you'd need a serious technique advantage to make up for that weight difference in any sort of conflict.
>>746355798>tfw 160lb lankletI strike from across the room then slither away
>>746355798You are delusional
>>74630252910kg+10kg+20kg bar = 40kgThats how much I benched when I benched for the very first time.
>>746356062you're weak and didn't play enough sports as a teenager
>>746317232olympic bar is 20kg, which most gyms have.
>>746356216They probably can’t even get the form down>hurr durr just brute force the weightYou didn’t complete the repAlso speedrunning that shoulder injury
>>746354972>This is assuming she's using a standard barbell, however there are ones that are 15kg instead of the standard 20.4kg/45lbs.i don't think 45lbs barbells are a thingthe standard weight of a barbell is 20 KILOGRAMS, like the standard oly barbell. you might find actual 45lbs (20.4kg) plates in the US, but 45lbs barbells are not a thing i've ever seenand even most plates that have measurements in lbs and kg are actually only accurate for the kilograms, or they specifically include decimals like 45lbs/20.4kg. so in this case the measurement in kilograms is the correct one, and she's benching 40kg
>>746356468they absolutely can>brute force1pl8 doesn't need much force, for an active adult male its the same as a woman using an empty bar
>>746356575sure lil bro, whatever you sayu sure your gym doesnt have fake weights tho?
>>746356710i'm sorry not only are you weak but your bait is weak as well, i hope you get stronger
>>746356543>20 KILOGRAMS, like the standard oly barbellYou go to a gym but you've only seen one type of barbell? And you're also too lazy to just look up if there are different sizes and weights of standard oly barbells?Do some brain reps, retardo.
>/v/ - 'rithmetic
>>746333685>Also I've never heard anyone who lifts include the coupe of pounds the bar weighs in their total weight liftedThis is too stupid to even count as bait
>>746302529Anons be honest. I'm 1.98m tall, 120kg and can do more than 12 push ups. I've never set foot in a gym but I'm pretty sure I could lift 70kg. My question is, what would my limit be?
>>746356914>i don't think 45lbs barbells are a thing, the standard weight of a barbell is 20 KILOGRAMS, like the standard oly barbell>but what about this picture of men's and women's barbells?you are genuinely retarded as fuck manshow me an actual 20.4kg barbell, i'll wait
THE BAR IS NOT 20kg YOU MORONS
>>746356543close enough
>>746357529If you add your hands you get 45
>>746357649that's what the 0.8 is, skin dust built up in the knurling
My barbell is 6kg /13lbs.
>>746357505women's bar (the 15kg one) doesn't have a knurling in the centernow, you can buy some shit bootleg barbell that would have it and be 15kg, but it's more likely it's just a standard 20kg men's barbell
>>746351175Only non-retarded post in this entire thread.The bar weights you guys are tossign around are absolutely laughable.
A woman should only do cardio and body workouts. Lifting weights is a massive mistake. It will make the traps big and the remove the breasts.
Volume>>>>>>IntensityYour one rep 200lbs lift does nothing fo your. But then again, youre all retards.
>>746305710you don't know what you're talking about>>746302529more than a decade of gymbrah experience, I never witnessed a lass benching more than 40kg... benching more than your bw as a female means you are dedicating super special scheduled attention to powerlifting, but they always show it off as the character in question does it casually since they are that good, which doesn't make sense so that's a garbage scene.
>>746358272different pros and cons
>>746322390you can progress in smaller weight increments with a Barbell, at some point you're going to max out on weight with dumbbells depending on what your gym has available but you can always just load more plates on the BarbellBarbell also isolates the main chest muscles a bit better than Dumbbells since youre using less stabilizers which can be a positive if thats what youre going for.Regardless if you prefer Dumbbells or Barbells we can all agree that theyre better than the Smith machine
>>746358337Cons being snap city, yeah.
>>746358337qrd?
>>746351175>if you want to be very generous you can say the bar itself weighs 5kgthe standard bar weighs 20kg, you buffoon
>>746358578low reps high weight = strengthhigh reps low weight = hypertrophy (puffy muscles).bodybuilders want more hypertrophy, martial artists want less puff and more functional strength
>>746358865bars aint universal you fagi have an olympic bar that can't weigh more than 7kg at most
>>746359328then it's not an oly bar
I bench 140kgI deadlift 220kgI squat 180kg
>>746306380Are you me? I literally could not get past 215
>>746359328Then it's neither olympic nor a standard bar
>>746302591a liter of cola
>>746328687>and the whole "i don't want to die under the bar" is easy to fix, it's called "lower the weight till you can do it and use proper form"No, it's called use the fucking safety bars. Set them to just high enough that your chest is above them when you arch your back for the bench but you have enough room to slide off the bench if you fail a repHow are people this retarded in 2k26? Jesus Christ.
>>746359607It sucks because if I take a break or get an injury, I get stuck at 165lbs and have to move my way back up THEN get hard stuck at 215. FUCKKKKKKK. I mean have you tried the 2.5lbs? I think having a spotter really helps mentally but I get shy uwu
>>746359580I didn't ask
>>746359328a bar should weigh 50 pounds
>>746309528How in the fucking hell is the bloat lord this strong? This is absurd levels of strength.
