Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[Gully Bull]

I’ma black man but ima let you get your jokes off. For awhile I was doing other exercises to build my chest…I been in the gym consistently for a good 7 months now. I been underweight for most of my life but I managed to get up in the 160’s and been packing on muscle (I’m only 5’8). The bench press was intimidating at first but once I started getting more comfortable with it, I gained more confidence and now I’m benching 110lbs

We all gotta start somewhere.

I started at just the barbell for sets of 6

Except nobody ever asks how much you OHP, and the lift is rarely contested in weightlifting competitions.

Now where's that little bytch who sits down to (OH)Pee?

How you on da powder but you've been skipping OHP ?

Na but according to the strength standards you're not strong unless you OHP your bodyweight which is crazy but it's attainable. Alphadestiny is a vegan who OHPed 225 at 165lbs

There aren't any #PowderBoyz that don't OHP so i don't know them.


Not sure what strength standards you're talking about, but symmetricstrength takes all of your lifts into account. Very few folks are gonna have a high level of skrenf across all of their lifts.


Alphadestiny is also a 5 foot 5 inch manlet, so his OHP travels a lot less distance than me or @You know damn well's will. Still an impressive stat though.

That's facts all we can do is work on our weaknesses.

https://www.masterclass.com/articles/time-under-tension

TUT workouts are designed to create tension in your muscles for a longer period of time, which leads to muscle growth
Workouts with slower reps cause your muscles to experience more time under tension, much more than with faster reps. The amount of time your muscles stay strained beneath a certain amount of weight will lead to an increase in muscle size.

Not even being but dude couldn't even pass his Air Force PT test by BMT standards last time I checked and was so that the recruiter wouldn't let him take a practice ASVAB.


Dude ain't even close to being Plus Ultra.

He's about as far away from ever being a #PowderBoyz member as @Gully Bull is from being injury-free ( ) or @portcityplaya is from eating clean and working out all the time ( ).

Nikkas couldn't push one plate off their chest to save their own life but they're worried about other exercises?
