CWS btfoing the eye-pee-eff.

>>35571351
Nah. Most of the time when fake feds promise prize money it's barely more than the meet fees and sometimes just doesn't pay out at all.
WABDL used to be famous for giving money but they started just not even paying out.
So guess what the ripped off lifters did... Made a new fed.

>>35571351
I thought the exact same thing.

now, have to give some credit because the sport just cant support that, but i agree that it needs to be taking a change.

me and roommates droped 50 bucks on a community pool for lotto tickets. If one of us wins, I can tell you what i'll be doing with the money


>dedicated USAPL / USAWL joint training center with full time coaching staff and housing to sponsor athletes

tell me that wouldn't be fucking sweet kek

>>35571403

I shudder to think how much dick you'd have to suck to get the IWF to sign off on that. For all the talk the IPF likes to spout about the closeness of the two sports and how PLing will totally be in the Olympics any year now... its decidedly a one-way street of giving a fuck.

>>35571439
yeah. I've had similar thoughts actually.

and it shows too. every WL I know is almost completely unaware of PL, let alone thinks its respectable.

I've had people look at me retarded when I say "I wish it was in the olympics"
>but there's already weightlifting

but hey, WL is a fucking niche sport too. and if they don't want to be associated with another niche sport because they think they're better, then they don't need a free training facility and athlete sponsorship and media hype.

As a fellow fatty, I must inquire. Do you have similar issues reaching what might be called "ATG"?

If we go by the definition of calves/hammy contact... Then my ATG and likely yours is quite high.

not that it really matters tho

>>35571490
how do you like the SSB? i have access to one kind of but my gym's administrators are total bitches. do you think it carries over well to backsquat? stronger quads? less forward lean?

>>35571517
Get higher heels and better ankle dorsiflexion

>>35571532
that makes one of us sean

>>35571403
Make a fed where you have to compete in 3 lifts in an unspecified combination of the powerlifts, oly lifts, and 1rm strongman events. Competitors don't get to know what they're doing until meet day. Competing would be fun as fuck. It would force people to be somewhat athletic and rounded.

>>35571552

Different guy, but I'd call the SSB the king of squat variants. It won't have the best PLing carryover for everyone, but if I had to stick someone on just one squat variant it'd be the SSB.

>>35571552
>SSB
>Sodomy Squat Bar

Those things buttfuck you hard.

>>35571575

Oh gods no. You don't ever want to put people in Strongman events without practice, even if they're athletic to begin with.

The recent disaster that was the stone shouldering ladder in the crossfit games is a pretty good example of what happens when you do.

>>35571605
I was thinking more basic stuff like log/axle pushpress and hummer tire deadlifts.

Stones hurt people who know what they're doing kek.

>>35571552
I like it a lot. It works very well for my goals. In relation to the normal squat variants, I'd say it closest resembles something between a front squat and a high bar squat. It lit my quads the fuck up the first few times I used it. It's definitely been improving my tendency to squat-morning, since you either need to brace it harder than a normal back squat or fight like hell to finish the rep.

No idea on carry over yet, I haven't done normal squats since I started using the SSB.

>>35571395
>>35571467

why do I bother leaving /plg/...

>>35571618

Log and axle will hurt people too, speaking from experience. The continental is just a god damn nasty movement in particular.

Implements in general tend to have a whole lot of injury risk. Because the whole point is that they're awkward, unfamiliar and often unbalanced.

>>35571575
Sounds like fucking crossfit...

>>35571626
i mean 220kg in the 83kg class would be at least middle of the pack at a local powerlifting meet, so they're probably right. They overestimate the accomplishment but are accurate on the number of people that actually do it.

>>35571575
Now I'm picturing some dipshit dropping a log on his head so hard his skull ends up in his ribcage.

I'd watch it.

>>35571575
dude, i've had this exact thought but also including track & field and a handful of crossfit events.

i think it would be the coolest thing ever.

my thought, every competition, you pick 10 events and tell people a few months out what they are and how they'll be judged.

Then about 3 months out, you'll randomly select like 3-5 of them and tell people so they can train for it


i think some that would be fucking cool
>1rm front squat (IPF depth)
>100 m dash
>100 wilks bench press for reps (strict / IPF)
>3rm back squat, to IPF standards
>1rm clean
>~200-300 wilks 50 m yoke walk

>>35571605

>>35572264
Supposedly they're good for shoulder health. IDK how much validity there is to that, but they make mine comfy.

>>35572274
Sounds good, i'm guessing you do very light facepulls prior to benching then?

>>35572287
I heard this too. Guess i'll be doing them from now on.

>>35572264
They hurt my AC joint.

>>35572291
very like. 20lbs or so. before and after benching. after in the hopes that it pushes whatever is wrong back into place and eliminates the problem, before to warm up shoulders and lessen the problem

Usually a federation cannot afford to give good prize money, if any.

The fee's for comps and membership is to cover costs of events and trophies etc.

My family for a while were president and state rep of the federation i lifted with and they weren't profiting money from meets. It costs a lot to keep a federation going and the money you pay goes towards the events.

Powerlifting shouldn't be about wanting to win prize money anyway. Winning is enough of a reward.

>Powerlifting shouldn't be about wanting to win prize money anyway. Winning is enough of a reward.
This desu

Prize money is the worst (legit) thing you can spend money on. It only does damage anyway.

Spend money on streaming production etc.

>>35571351
>no prize money
Why is something that only benefits a tiny fraction of the total participants a good thing?

>>35574457
Because if there was more material reward for doing a thing, the pool of people interested in doing a thing would increase and powerlifting would go from being that weird thing fat guys do to justify their eating habits to a sport in the eyes of normals.

Or so I assume the logic is.

>>35574466
So we should raise the enter fee so high that you can live of winning competitions? lmao

>>35574488
I didn't say I agreed with it. I just assume that's what the thought process is. Competing is already expensive enough for the average lifter; especially in equipped anything, or IPF because of the shill tax on acceptable equipment.

Please don't make my fun thing even more expensive

>>35574466
Except then people would look up the standards and say "Oh no I can't do that"

I mean, its more than likely going to wash out as just noise in my weight loss since i'm so fat any ways, but fuck it. bort got me the autoregulating templates and i've had the book for ages. got partway through reading it last night - there's no reason not to try it when it's making it as easy as it is.

what it looks like to me, you probably wouldn't even have to count calories if you go by the portioning and composition guidelines that autoregulate to your Kcals and goals.

I'm going to count calories any ways, but its worth it to see if it does / doesn't do anything useful since i have it all.

Fitness is pretty much cardio related. And that's my whole point, PL is so taxing, adding extra sessions to do other shit whether it's cardio, sport etc. could lead to over training.

Do your cardio, cardiovascular health is important if you have lots of muscle

I think I just realized I'm allergic to fish oil :/

>>35575408
because I thought I would take a break from heavy low rep set using mixed grip for while and do some light 8 rep sets with double overhand.
Because I changed my grip I ended up pulling with my shoulders slightly behind the bar (by accident) which must have put a lot of shear force on my lumbar. Because the weight was so light I was able to lift the weight anyway.

Then a week later I tried to force depth on a squat too much and further killed lumbar.

I really do hope it clears up desu

Lel its actually the same as saying doing squats 3x a week is impossible to recover from.

If you haven't been running for ages, ofc your legs will be in pain the day after. Now if you run even once a week for a while, you will not get DOMS at all.

But i would run after my squat day, depends a lot about the routine. Or you can do some HIIT shit.

Many natty athletes can manage lifting heavy shit + their sport easily without complaining, and many of them have crazy lifts (and not all of the use roids lel)

Lel. It doesn't take as much time as a real sport to get good at. If you can't have a few hours of cardio outside of it, you can never call yourself an athlete.

>>35575572
Well scientifically our bodies only needs 48 hours to fully recover, hence why most routines that have squats 3x a week have at least a day inbetween sessions. What I am asking is can doing cardio the day before a squat session be detrimental? Regardless of DOMs, you're not going to do ham curls, squats etc. the day before a heavy squat sesh.

Impossible to say. But i'd say theres a problem in your programming if it comes to running the day before squat session. Ofc its much more wise to run on the same day after the session, or on other day.

But running really is not the best option if you can do something that is safer for your knees, like swimming. Powerlifting is already a bit hard for the knees

If you're gonna do cardio, do light cardio.

Tbh if you're doing high volume training without doing picnic-sessions with long rest times you will be training your cardiovascular system. You'll probably still be shit at running though, but rather than because of bad cardio, that could be attributed to:
>powerlifters
>calves
pick 1

Everytime(not many) I've tried running while only training for powerlifting, my cardio has been pretty good. It would probably be quite bad on sheiko because I am always at a low level of preparedness and bordering on overworked.

I'm not doing norweigan training so I don't really see the relevance in this? Wouldn't it be better too look at the norweigan team, or people doing norweigan-isch training like Patrik Anderssons guys? My point is that training the deadlift 4 times per week is doable and many people do it.

>scientifically our bodies only needs 48 hours to fully recover
no.

what you're probably thinking of is that muscle protein synthesis has only been shown to happen up to 48 hours after the work out (or whatever the actual statistic is)

recovery can take much longer past the novice stage, which is why you cant keep doing LP 3 times a week past a certain point.

>>35575956
Yeah I meant the guy on the far left with the ponytail

>>35575963
>recovery can take much longer past the novice stage, which is why you cant keep doing LP 3 times a week past a certain point.
Isn't the reason rather that you can't get a big enough stressor in one session?

@seen

Kek I can't believe you have this little influence in plg

>>35574998
I once saw a study showing that fasted training can sometimes positively influence maximal efforts. I'll try to find it soon.

Personally, I only feel good lifting later in the day after having eaten many meals.

>>35575804
>75 reps of bench
>light

>>35575978
its more you can't get a big enough stressor of which you can recover from

otherwise you'd move from 3x5 3 times a week to 5x5 3 times a week

the 3x5 at first can be recovered from in a day and progress occurs
the 5x5 at the intermediate stage needs the week to recover

>>35575983
You typically have to be charismatic or matter at all to have influence

>This picture is such a meme
>You can't even row more weight than just your upper body

Not every exercise is for the purpose of building muscle and having a direct correlation of strength or hypertrophy, some exercises are to help cue a better technique, in this case lats in the bench press

Question that someone hopefully could help me with.

What is the best powerlifting program for the late intermediate?

stats is:
261kg squat
155kg bench
255kg deadlift.

I really need some ideas. Thanks in advance!

>literally all of my money in limbo
>no groceries
>fuel light on

Looks like I'm dining on gift cards, and lifting at the university gym with resolutioners. My options are sit-down places and chipotle for my next meal or two.

>>35576004
I usually feel stronger in squats and bench on a full stomach. Deadlifts are worse when I'm full, probably because it's harder to get I to a good position without feeling like I'm going to throw up. Unless there's some weird hormonal/neural response to being hungry that increases MVC, its probably personal preference.

Either way I'd be interested in seeing it.

>>35576080

>>35576092
>sweeping statement
I don't see how - explain?

>>35576109
I just meant the week as in within the context of the weekly template i.e. you need Mon-Fri for the intermediate instead of Mon-Wed for the novice

>>35576107
Im serious, plz no bully

Just wondering if it actually is useful in some kind of way or is it just for adding a funny element to the lift

>>35576113
Wew lad tough to answer that without sounding insincere. I just talk to grills how I talk to friends. They live to be given shit just like friends. They want to be treated like friends more than anything, even if they're perfect strangers

>>35576140
Depending on what variation of TM you do, you could have between 2-3 days inbetween heavy sessions of the same lift. Considering how TM is an intermediate program, wouldn't your claim that intermediates need a week to recover be false?

>>35576140

>>35576176
its a generic statement to get the underlying principal across.

in reality, recovery doesnt perfectly happen within the confines of SS and then straight into TM - they are just templates and recovery is individual and on a scale instead of binary. I wasn't claiming "it takes a day to recover and then eventually is hops to a week" - im putting them into the examples of SS and TM for arguments sake and simplicity.

>>35576178
it would be sweeping if I said
>in ALL cases EVERYONE will hop from this progression to the next bar none

but that is not the issue under contention here or what was being discussed. the issue was what was the reason SS stops working and people need intermediate programming such as TM.

>>35576187
then you're wrong

>>35576189
Thanks. Should you do the same with front squat and zercher?

>>35576222
If you're talking to them like a friend they should be laughing and having a good time anyway right? If Chad comes along and she's attracted to the thundercock then you probably don't want to be associated with her anyway

>then you're wrong

me squat has gone 110 kg up the last 3 years, while my deadlift only moved 55kg. sucks.

>>35576253
>you probably don't want to be associated with her anyway
What? How can you blame somebody for being attracted to something better?
That's like saying you don't want to associate with people who like 5 star restaurants because you own a 3 star restaurant

Do any of you do incline press, flat bench is Giving me a few issues lately so I'm playing around with incline, just wondering what you think of it

>>35576272
if that's what you got from the discussion.

doesn't make you any less wrong

>>35576301
I don't bother. I stick to benching and actual press.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it thought, especially if you're using it to get around an injury safely while still getting pressing in.

>>35576292
Yeah, so if you don't have a leg up, what do you do? The objective is to establish a rapport and get her to be attracted to you. Looks really aren't the end all, especially for women. You just have to be okay to look at and fun to be around. Anything else is just a nice extra

>>35576315
>get around an injury safely while still getting pressing in.
That's the problem, I've got a subluxed SC joint and any pressing at an angle lower than perpendicular to my body causes my clavicle to pop in and out of the socket.

>>35576328
Right
My point is how can you get a leg up on somebody who has everything you have (funny, smart etc) who is also better looking?

>>35576346
Get there first?

Honestly there's rarely an absolute advantage one person has over another. If you're uggo (not saying you are) and you have a good personality, at least exude confidence. The way you carry yourself is the most important thing you can do to increase your market value in the right now. If you lift, you probably have good posture as it is.

>>35576361
OK man ty for advice

>>35576311
Just because you don't know how to engage your lats in the bench doesn't mean that it's not possible or beneficial. Admittedly though lats aren't a requirement for bench press, so most people don't ever learn to use them, however this is why activation exercises are useful like the reverse bench

>>35576344
blegh, fuck that shit. sorry man. But yeah, thats what I was saying - if you can get away with pressing incline without pain then heck yeah, go for it man.

>>35576361
yeah, this is unfortunately the truth.

"Fake it 'till you make it" is undeniably a thing, and it blows dick because there's only a small % of males that have the combination of:
>understand this
>just ballsy enough / oblivious enough / stupid enough to blindly try and abuse this fact
>that aren't completely fuckwad status physically or socially

Its exceptionally painful when you are 100% aware of it and how easy it really is, but can't bring yourself to do anything about it because you're a total pussy

ayyylmao

I do have to say though, I think I'm figuring it out very quickly. HTAMILF has been an invaluable asset to me in this regard. I've learned lots

>>35576416
Being around a woman invariably helps you be able to talk to women. After my 5 year relationship ended I was laying so much pipe I couldn't handle it. It's so fucking easy once you get used to it. Just gotta learn how to read so you don't put eggs into the wrong basket. Usually starts with eye contact and trying to read it from there.

Ended up backfiring because this grill I laid down in my car ended up losing her ring (which I obviously didn't know about) in my car. I fucked somebody's wife and it bothered the shit out of me.

Still got another girl from the same bar later than night, lel.

>>35576397
Yeah dude, wish it could be more concrete but how women feel is usually dependent on the direction of the wind.

>>35576136
I failed to find the actual study on google. I must have read it on some "men's" article. I did read on another "men's" article that fasted training actually increases the muscular glycogen, but I believe that is mostly associated with endurance training.

I remember finding a very specific article in that it related to maximal strength exertions, but I am stumped.

As for myself, I am usually worried about puking while lifting because I have mild acid reflux. The tighter I brace, the more I feel like I could begin projectile vomiting at any moment.

>>35576411
I never claimed lats aren't involved in the bench

I was just echoing what boardshorts was saying (for the most part i think), which is that 'reverse benching' is a poor exercise for what it claims to do and there is no situation where it's inclusion is explicitly useful above better and easier methods

Is a subluxated SC joint different than having your shoulder joint subluxed? I'm not an anatomy expert. I know that ever since I subluxated my shoulder, I can't do incline press. Flat bench is fine and shoulder press is fine.

They say that subluxating or dislocating is a strength deficit. Better get on that rehab. Buy yourself an exercise band. 10 pound resistance is probably good enough.

from what i've gathered and can guess it would be

>positional cuing
>activation specificity
>training specificity (be it neurological pathways or hypertrophy)
>warming up lats

all of which either it doesn't do, or doesn't do as well as other simpler, more accessible methods.

idk if I missed any but it probably doesnt do them either.

its definitely beyond that point. by a loooong shot.

There's a reason I want my own training facility

>>35576533
I think what you injured is the rotator cuff, what I injured is the sterno clavicular joint (where your clavicle meets the center of your sternum) and the part got subluxed is the ligament that holds the clavicle down to the sternum

>>35576596
That's right, I had weak rear delts and changed gyms. The new bars were heavier so my rear delt gave out and my shoulder fell out of the socket. Not such a bad injury.

What you're saying is there aren't like 14 different muscles to support your chest that you can strengthen to protect it?

Next how to be an olympic lifter, oh wait.......

Well I'm pretty sure my costoclavicular ligament is partially torn or stretched, and it's not actually that bad except for when I retract my shoulders and do flat bench where I'm basically leveraging that area heavily in the same direction it's injured. The only option seams to be to let it heal and do other exercises that don't bother it.

Jk I haven't tried to count. Too many drunk nights anyway. Doesn't really count.

Still don't have any kids I know about!

>>35576591
wtf... that's like 40cm ROM, lol.

>>35576684
My unwarranted advice is to look up rehab exercises for it and take aspirin a couple times a day. I have heard that just letting inactivity heal it can lead to it being weak and healed in a way that makes it inefficient at doing it's job.

>>35576559
Fairly accurate. From the metal to the owning a barbell.

>>35576847
Well like I was saying before I'm doing incline bench for the meantime as a work around, but this isn't the sort of injury to work through, as I've already tried.

>>35576831
best deadlifters have long arms and short torso

Just look at Lamar Gant

Preference of shotgun?

I'm thinking i'll probably just get an 870.

>>35576986
870 is a great choice. I'd get a baseline one and just upgrade it with magpul furniture and get a mag tube extension

Or you could pony up and get the versa max. Absolutely fell in love with it when I shot it

complete /k/ new guy here, what's a good first rifle?

preferably not breaking de bank.

>>35577031
Can't fill plg with gun talk unfortunately. Don't want to be that guy any more than I already am

If you're looking for a decent cheap AR, nothing wrong with a Smith and Wesson M&P-15.

If you're looking for a decent bolt action rifle, can't go wrong with most Remington 700s or Savage model 10.

No more gun talk, not here

Pin squats
Do you do them?
Where do you set the pins?

>>35575736
I'm... hopping programs.

Bunch of roidheads at the gym were talking about killer grams, should I report them to the gym management for openly discussing steroids?

>>35577158
no. thats literally the same thing as being a faggot that reports some one for casual marijuana use.

people smoke weed

people do steroids

no one likes a tattle tale

>>35577109
i've never tried them, not really interested to. i think sticky point pause squats are good enough.

>>35577177
Are you allowed to share that there autoreg template you got from Bert?

Hit PR of 200kg on my squat after 3 years of training, was going for 210kg but a PR is a PR. Am I doing alright for this length of training?
Think I'm ready to start my first 5/3/1 training cycle?
