*** partner passed through to drop a bench off and spotted me/unracked it real quick, MAJOR DIFFERENCE! i can hit 200 for 3-4 reps for sure, again i just need someone to unrack it for me for now
i think my triceps must be unusually weak....resulting in current my weak bench stats, im gonna start hitting my triceps too.... finna start doing pull downs, dips and skullcrushers again
i also like to add i have long ass nba player arms which makes benching a bit more difficult for me. im at an energetic disadvantage more so than the average lifter :
@The Butcher what do you deadlift, overhead press, clean and jerk and squat?

gonna have to start going heavy on the barbell military press, 50lbs is the heaviest set of dumbells at the gym still. i should of started with the 50lbs but i was scared....fear can really hold you back. i know i can definitely bang out a 60lb db shoulder press for a clean 3x8........
if theres anything i hate on my body right now, its my delts, their puny, i need Dwight Howard Shoulders N'eowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
finna have some super strong shoulders for the benchhhhhhhhhh
Barbell squat, just below parallel
155lbs 1x5
185lbs 4x5
Started too late so i couldn't really get into my workout, my boy had a morning class to train at 7 so i dipped out.
With returning to squats i can feel myself defintely squating more than 250 after 30 days. After a minor fix in my form (rolling the bar further up on my neck) i added 30lbs with no issue and defintely felt i could of lifted alot more. Like ALOT more.
250-300 lbs for reps in the next 30-60 days, easily.
