compliance is the biggest concern, but in reality you don't need to train the deadlift or the bench press to be good at either
if you are strong all around, you will have a great deadlift; my cousin (woman) was a gymnast through college, the first time she ever deadlifted she pulled almost 1.5x bodyweight
same with bench, there are olympic lifters who do nothing but overhead press and when they try to bench press they can do 225 for reps; benching isnt even the best exercise for chest development, dips are the money maker for a masculine looking chest
you kind of have to back squat to get good at the back squat because a true 1rm powerlifting style squat is by far the most difficult motor pattern of the big 3, but lots of athletes and Olympic lifters do nothing but front squat

if you're 18, eating 4k calories a day, and don't give a fuck how you look, yeah
most people in their late 20s aren't going to want to dirty bulk
i was 14 when i started lifting, did gomad plus eating everything in sight; my squat actually stalled for a year because i kept growing and it threw off my form

When I went over a year without exercising my chest due to injury, I came back and had no problem benching 245 x 1 my first day back. This was at 175 lbs bodyweight.
How could it be possible to not bench at least 185?

according to bro science and my anecdotal evidence, squatting maintains a level of T or something in your body that makes building and keeping other muscle mass outside your legs easier.
I am 33 X 34 with a 44 or 46L jacket.
Anyone can squat heavy - legs have the potential to be very strong. Most people are just to lazy and scared to get their legs strong.
If you bench 185 X 5, you need to squat 225 X 5. If you cant squat that much, you need to do that first and worry about bench and everything else later.
Also big leg muscles maintain your metabolism and keep the body fat down, which is probably more your goal than hitting some arbitrary bench number in your 30's.

Thanks...that's a good point. I'm going to go back to squatting, power cleaning and deadlifting the next few months and get those up to respectable comparable levels.
And, btw, I just turned 40. I'm old.

Am actually picking back up taking fish oil for joints, but I may end up changing diet some if that doesn't have noticeable effect.
I do train somewhat instinctively, in that I have a flex spot in the program where I hit whatever I feel like for 4 sets - usually a weak point like quads - but otherwise it's pretty regimented.
Workout sounds CR. What age range are you?

see above, what kind of meat?
some people don't handle carbs well (though its clearly a minority of the population, maybe 15%, but if you've been lifting 8 years and have a 3 plate bench im assuming you know what youre doing); I can burn right through them but if i eat any kind of food that is very heavy in fat like avocados or nuts my stomach is fucked for hours; meanwhile, I eat upwards of 4 cups of oats a day and am fine
re veggies: just stomach down spinach, it's the least gassiest of any vegetable, avoid broccoli and cauliflower if you get gassy

Beef (steak and ground, pretty even mix), chicken (not the 6 chicken breasts a day bullshit, stuff that actually tastes good, and it isn't my main source), eggs.
I do fine with carbs as long as I either keep simple sugars low or increase fat along with simple sugar. If I don't, my digestion is poor, I bloat, and after a week I pack on fat. I can handle high carb, and have done so before, but I find I have to do more cardio, and I just don't enjoy the food. I can eat less with the low carb approach, and after years of eating for athletics, I'm pretty damn tired of food. Only time I'd go high carb now is if I were back on a swim team, as I'd want a little more fat on me and I'd get tired quickly without the carbs.
Have actually started eating spinach salads in the past 6 weeks, and it's better than any other way I've found.
