and has 5 years of natural growth left… so with a sensible diet and training program he should be looking pretty good at 21. i would say though, in my opinion that putting up a bench PB is a habit you need to get out of, why not work on your deadlifts and squats and then you will see some gains. i was always way stronger on my push than my pulls and was injury free until last year where i had a major rotator cuff tear (through years of strength imbalance chest to back)…
get lower back work and external rotations in your program to compensate for youthful over-eagerness to build the mirror muscles

aiight thanks for the advice
i do, do deadlifts and squats
my deadlifts are at 280lbs max…
damn, rotator cuff tear…that sounds painful, hope you get better
Hopefully you grow a bit more that will help add a lot more size, because at your hight its going to be tough to gain a lot more size. You look solid right now though but I wouldn’t put you at 6% bodyfat, probably 10.
This guys score is low because he doesn’t weigh a ton right? For some reason T-Nation has this arbitrary fascination with the number 200. For 16 and 130lbs you look fantastic and you’ve got plenty of time and T-levels on your side to get bigger.
I recently turned 16 and would kill for a level of tone like that. Did you start out extremely thin? What is your diet like so you can maintain that figure while gaining at the same time?

yea man, i was really skinny. i just stay away from all junk food, and i eat at least 6-8 meals a day. although i never eat until im full, only until im content
aright, I’m 17, weigh 150, 5’7 and have a fuck of alot of shoulders and back but jack for anything else. don’t remember the last time I maxed in bench but it was around 230, I’ve gotten 300 on the smith but I may as well not even count that as a bench max. I’ve tossed a few posts here and there, the last one was my lifting program. it’s not the greatest but it’s been working thus far for me.
