I cringe at the guys ITT saying 2-3 times 4-5 times etc. You guys are so full of ****, with maybe a couple of exceptions. Considering 90% of the misc doesn't even ****ing lift, and only maybe 1-2% are actually advanced lifters. Push Press? Sure. Jerk? Absolutely. Not a strict standing OHP, **** no, you lying sacks of dog chit.

The strict OHP max I use for training is 145 right now. I could maybe get 155. Its going to be another 8 months to a year before I can max 195.

Again, i'm sure there are some guys here who actually can. But the amount of multi rep responses here is baffling.
