@thewickedaxe What if I told you I, and many of my current and past clients, deadlifted 500 before benching 275?

The likely scenario for the average guy will be his ability to hit one (the lifts) then hit the second (the running) at the expense of his lifts to some capacity. Or you have the runner who decides to get stronger, packs on weight to hit the lifts at the expense of the running The Few, The Proud Few will maintain them both. It would be more outrageous if were were talking SUB 6 minute mile. But that 7 minute mile is pretty darn attainable unless you turbo fatted yourself Also, if they aim for These Standards and a guy goes from untrained to The Standards 1.0 and an 8 minute mile he will have also, changed his life

Deep Squats, Shallow Thoughts
Deep Squats, Shallow Thoughts@wolfstrength·
It’s annoying, dealing with all the time, but in some ways can’t blame people for thinking that “pretty good numbers after training consistently for 3-5 years” are something only the most elite physical specimens can pull off, because their exposure is generally to subpar information that comes from a physique-only or funkshunal training ecosystem. An average guy who trains for 3-5 years probably isn’t going to be able to do this but at the same time it’s far from elite. It’s good. Above average. Nowhere near elite. Yet people think it it’s only in the realm of genetic freaks because their information exposure is so poor.

@sam_gzstrength Bro said “hey here’s something that only the absolute most elite specimens of physical health can pull off, so I’m pushing this as the solid achievable physical base for the public so I can grift my workout program”

I love when people assume I'm a fat and pink starting strength guy and they ask me my mile time (5:06 is cool but it isn't fast, by the way)
Sam Krapf@sam_gzstrength

@JuicyGooser1 5:06 from last fall! Was trying to go sub 5 and came up short.

These retards. The first four will take you YEARS at the least. The fifth will take you maybe a year, and the last one takes a few weeks depending on whether you’re overweight. Real solid base is this: 150 press 225 bench 315 squat 6-8 chin up 7-7:30ish mile

Ignore these kinds of arbitrary "you should be benching or squatting x amount of weight" posts. If you are consistently working out a few days each week, you are just fine and already doing better than 99% of the population.

Deadlifts today ☠️💪 450 lbs. 1x1 Did you lift something heavy today? Finally worked my way back up to where I was a few months ago, but now with flatter upper back™️ and a nice squeeze off the floor. My brain wanted to quit this rep approximately 36 times on the way up. My 1RM is at 460, so I’m close, but MAN does 500 feel far away right now! Overall I had a great lower body training - showed up, put in the work, and felt better than last week. Cheerleader showed up today for maximum support. Not every day is gonna be PR day, but I will continue to push. May the Lord be praised! #Barbell #StrengthTraining #Dominion

@JERSEYGIANT111 I just don't think so. If I had said 5-6 minute mile yeah. A 7 minute mile isn't that hard for pretty much anyone to achieve

@sam_gzstrength This is a weird list, way too much strength instead of athleticism/cardio. 6-7 min mile is mediocre. But the press/bench/squat/deadlift are really strong. Should instead be: * 5 min mile * 175 bench * 305 squat That's way more well-rounded...

@thetoewsera 315 still isn't a crazy strong bench, regardless of my open powerlifting from 5 years ago. Sorry bro
