Me - 37, 5'-9" 204lb
Lift 1RMs: DL 390, SQ 338, BENCH 195, OHP 136
My question-
Been lifting since last December, first time I've been into going to the gym in my life and I'm down 45lb or so. It's become a solid habit now, every two days unless something major happens. I'm working the Five3One app.
Why are my bench and ohp so crappy and how can I make them stop being so crappy.
For accessories (the full list, not all of these are on bench day, obviously), I do the following Incline bench press Close grip bench press Tricep rope pull down Dumbbell row Power cleans Leg press
Love the change in my body so far but I have a damn long way to go. is there something obvious I'm missing here? Bench is just crawling up so slow.
