*.* NEW- 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
I guess we filled up the old one... http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=280149
Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition! No one else started it so here it is! **From the 2013 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

I'm come from skinny Irishmen. It is what it is. Plus, I've got the German beef on the other side of the family. It's a weird mix.

Started doing exercises specific to shoulders and arms this year. Previously just relied on other compound movements to include them. Anyway, wanting to get a reference point.... about how much is everybody able to press overhead from the seated position?

Pretty much.
"FW" = free weight. Not a machine. I usually do my sets 10-8-6. If you can get that, add weight.

I used to be able to do presses with 85lb dumbbells. No longer with all my shoulder issues. Now I do the same. Low weight and high rep. Usually max with 65lb dumbbells now.

Read a thing yesterday that said bench presses and traditional machine fly's are useless.
Recommended push-ups and cross-overs. Thoughts?

Seated? I have no idea. Standing military press is in the 180s. Maybe 190s on a good day.
