7 months into lifting, feeling like I'm not doing good enough.

@elliep78 Oh this is true, thank you I was doubting my incline press there lol.

@cleannie Oh, thought it was incline bench press, my bad then

@elliep78 Because it originally looked like he was pushing 27.5 barbell incline. Due to formatting. Not individual DBS.

@kimdawnxo I agree, it's frustrating to struggle so much on it. I've watched a lot of videos on incline bench. My technique is alright although I've noticed that sometimes I subconsciously arch my back instead of driving it into the bench to stay flat. When I do drive into the bench to flatten my back the load feels even heavier so recently I've actually deloaded the weight to focus on form regarding that. Eating is hard man

@cleannie Maingaining is a lie, you need to bulk. I even drank olive oil in glass shots just to hit 4000 kcal, ended up at 107 kg (~20% bodyfat) from 66kg in a few years, now doing my first cut. 140kg bench, 200 deadlift, 160 squat, but i mostly do hypertrophy training.
