Standing OHP. 
I do the lift "raw" and my back is seriously compromised. I think if I used a belt I could add a few pounds+reps to my lift.

Just started doing front squats. Getting my form down PAT before attempting any real weight. I think I've been doing 3x10x95

Was that a 200 KG deadlift? I hope so...

That hyperextention+shrug at the top made me weezy 

P.s. was it you who suggested those chinese leather lifting gloves? They work great... people looking at me mad weird though 

EDIT.. 180lbs BW

Your core is prob very weak so that translates to a weak press. I don't think standing strict OHP is necessary either way but yours is pretty weak accounting for your weight (I'm thinking you weigh 160-175?). Improve your front squat and your OHP will shoot up. Strict OHP is a lot of core/trap / rear delt. Front squat works all of those pretty well.

It's in kilos
200 kg = 440 lbs. 

For a guy under 200, that's not all too bad.

Getting back into the gym after finals/graduation craze.

Reorganizing my routine to focus more on legs and back.

Tuesday: Deadlift/hamstrings/calves, back/bis.
Wednesday: rest.
Thursday: Squat, shoulders/tris.
Friday: Deadlift/calves, back/bis.
Saturday: rest.
Sunday: rest.

Right now:

Deadlift: 325 3x5.
Squat: 245 3x5.

6'4" 200.

Been a lot of talk aboutt he importance of vitamins in the last 10 or so pages
I've read numerous times that people take Vitamin D

Even if your multi gives you 100% of your daily value, you take that on top of it?

I don't see the reasoning for that?

anyways, im posting so when im done with my cut cycle, i can have comparison pics.

[scott frost]

bwood, how long is your cut cycle?

 

[bwood056]

6-8 weeks . just started yesterday

but have been clean cutting (no fat burner, just healthy eating and supersets) for about 2 months

started at 250 - at 222 now.

the 250 i was at was just big and bulky, still worked out everyday, just heavy weights.

ive never cut down before, besides football practice back in the day.

 

[scott frost]

Yeah, I got to get back to supersetting. What do your superset splits look like?

That's definitely true. Most people can attain 315 back squat, 400ish deadlift, around a bodyweight overhead press, etc. It's just a matter of necessity and training right. A gymnast/bodyweight afficionado doesn't need a 600 lb back squat and an o-lifter doesn't need to be able to do an iron cross. Would it hurt to add some things from a different discipline? Probably not.
