Welcome to the powerlifting general. This thread is intended for becoming a better athlete on the platform, but we welcome other strength athletes as well.
Post about PRs, training, form, peaking, nutrition, or anything else related to powerlifting and strength.

What worse for you: sugar or fat?
Do you have to cut sugar almost completely out of your diet to cut and get 6 pack?
I eat at a calorie deficit, hit abs 3x a week, low fat, zero fast food, something like ice cream once a week, but drink sweetened ice tea a few times a week
Is ice tea the reason I don't get abs, fit?
Don't worry about it.
>Icecream sweated tea
>meme ab workout 3x a week
youre not even trying
calories are king
we've known this for fucking decades, momscience has you thinking it's something else (whether that something else is sugar or fat or carbs or gluten)
I decided to quit lifting because of Rich Piana's death.
I've been going to the gym 4 times a week for two years now, and for what? Just more muscle mass. And while doing that, I've been abusing my body, ingesting unhealthy amounts of calories for naught. Thinking that people will like me more if I just have bigger muscles. What a dumb thought.
So yeah, I'm not going to put unnecessary strain on my heart and digestive system anymore, just because I feel insecure. Also, this community has become more and more shit over the years. At first it was mostly good advise, but now it feels like /fit/ is just a support community for men with low self esteem...
I'm out bye
get collagen fillers like Rich had then do light machine work and start a youtube channel. Get some tats. Cmon

I dont g.a.s. about barbell squats, machines will do if they get me there. I feel like a faggot with my skinny legs.
sorry but no.
>>42644005
Bump, came to make a thread about the same thing
yes but prepare to put in 2+ years
>listen to rippetoe's podcast
>he claims that endurance athletes should squat and deadlift because running is just a sub-maximum efforts will now be easier
i don't think it works that way
>>42643920
It does but it's not the most efficient way of training for very long after beginning.
That's a dumb broscience way to think about it but it's true that lifting improves performance for endurance athletes
>>42643920
Endurance athletes actually DO squat and deadlift.
It's never about raw endurance, but always about strength/endurance. Even in a marathon, it's not about who can run more before collapsing, but about who can run 42.2kms FASTER.
To develop strength/endurance you first develop strength, and then take the extremely long road to leverage that into s/e, so yeah endurance athletes need to squat. Not much, but their programs usually include it in at least some phases.

I look good for where I'm at, really nice 6 pack but i've just looked in the mirror and my lats looked really small and I looked a bit more puffy than normal due to water retention. Will anyone ever love me?
