I'm 5'7 and weigh 200lbs. I'm currently doing the advanced 5x5 which are actually 3x5... if that makes any sense. Here are my stats:
Overheadpress: 165
Deadlifts: 380
Squats: 385
Benchpress: 230
Bentover: 205lbs
Dips: +100
Pull-ups: own bodyweight since after deadlifting I'm tired as hell and want to just go home.
I currently use chalk for the deadlifts but find that my hands are a little small causing the bar to slip when I hit my 4th rep coming to 5th. I also use a reverse grip... Any sorta technique I should applyed to gain even more grip strength?
All my lifts are increasing still except for my overheadpress. I've been stuck at 165 for the past 2 months and still can't finish all three sets. Any tips on increasing my strength for that as hell?
btw, I do all my lifts fasted and take 0 supplements.
Edit:
LOL only thing I can think of is I have a bad habit of sleeping only 3-4 hours a day. I do take an hour lunch nap but obviously that isn't as good as having 6-8 hours of straight sleep. I want to correct this but... I feel like I don't have enough time during the day to do what I want so I stay up later than I should to do what I like, which is play games/surf net/watch movies/going out.
