    Bro, do you have a shoulder problem ?

    I noticed you don't have a free-weight bench press in your training program
    Hi Brah, @nrg500 No I do not have a shoulder problem, but I workout alone with my program, and I am not that confident to do heavy loads on a free weight bench press, although I use free weights for flyes and moderate load failure presses. I will build that confidence in the future hehe...along with my strength.

    If you are worried about getting pinned under the bar coz you don't have a spotter, then don't train to failure

    Almost everyone started weak at the bench press. I still have to see a sedentary individual who just started lifting and able to bench press 200 lbs

    You don't develop bench press strength by using machine bench press. In the machine bench press, no stabilizing is needed that is why you are able to lift very heavy. Also, chest isolation exercises + tricep isolation exercises + shoulder isolation exercise is not equivalent to bench pressing. Sure, accessory exercises for the bench press will improve your bench press but if you want to get strong in bench pressing, you have to bench press

    I see that you are able to do push ups already. You lift around 60% of your bodyweight in push ups. Use that as a starting weight forthe bench press if you are worried that you might get pinned under the bar for lifting too heavy

    Anyway, it's still up to you. Just sharing what I learned from past failures

    Thanks bro @nrg500 advice noted bro, I also agree to your point. I will aim to do 220 lbs on a free weight bench press before this year ends. I am on 180 lbs max right now.

    **Weight drop to 130 LBS; might change plan for an earlier muscle mass gain diet and training program :banghead:
  • AestecniquesAestecniques Posts: 487
    5'6" 130 LBS @ 12-15% BF.

    I should have reached this weight by the end of May. I am now thinking of earlier change in plans to muscle gain, maybe this is lean enough to start clean bulking. I hope to do it right this time.

    If you want to get strong in deadlift, there should be a progressive overload. Progressive overload does not necessarily mean adding 20 pounds every week. Try increasing the weight by 5 or 10 lbs every week depending on your strength level. Don't go to failure, leave a rep or 2

    You'll get a noticeable change in physique once you get stronger in deadlift.

    Just sayin', bro
