Shut up, foul temptress.

Staying natty and competing IPF is the right thing to do.

What areas of the body are typically hypertrophied in a good all-around total lifter? Front delts, legs, spinal erectors? Opinions? Very curious. Will give out a rare Pepe for best answer.

OUTTA MY WAY YOU TWINK SHITS

>>35615932
Back, legs? Core? You can force up almost any kind of heavy multijoint lift if you have a strong core and back.

>>35615932
Front delts, traps, rhomboids, spinal erectors, tris, hammies, glutes, tear drop on quads.

>>35615963

Just moved to a new town, very small town. Got my eye on 2 hotties. But now I realized, they're the hottest girls in town. Like. The hottest. How the fuck am I gonna seduce one of Them?

>>35615823
Tfw Norsie won't ever be your bear

>>35615932
Calves. Hear me out. The soleous is used to correct flexion in hip rotation which creates a huge torque on the dominant low insertion calves. This helps stabalize every lift and create a metamuscle, essentially. It makes the muscle operate and use a true motion instead of a small RoM. Essentially calves will shift all the force from the floor into your hams which will transfer into your spine creating a massive CNS boost.

But sinking the bar isn't necessarily bad technique and it can help you lift more, even in competition. This is something I got straight from Smulter.

powerlifting is always measured in kgs
even you americlaps are cucked into using kgs on meet day

>>35616823
Hasn't it been shown that if you are staying in a fixed weightclass gear only helps 10-15%?

>>35617105
Wow equipped powerlifting is a massive joke

>>35616633
damn m8. cool to hear from a fellow lifter. how tight are your hips? if you're anything like Elliott and me then they're tight as fuck. Every day I fall back into tightness, actually after like an hour after stretching I'm tight again. It's fucking up my squat training. Tight quads pull down on the pelvis and disable my lower abs. They simply don't get nervous activity and they are horribly weak and behind compared to the rest of the body. My gut spills out and I have donald duck posture.

>>35616894
where did you meet Smulter and where are you from?

>>35617207
I've actually got a bit of lordosis, but there isn't much I can do about it due to my morphology. my hips don't externally rotate well with a normal standing stance since my adductors are so large that they essentially leverage my hips apart when I try to pull my hips under me.

>>35617186
there is a like a 10% difference between elite for both tested and untested. But you progress alot faster with roids that you can reach an "elite" level faster.

>>35617321
Only a fool would think the untested people are as good as the tested ones though

its like 10% participation or less

>>35617334
thats why i was only comparing elites.

curry nigger topkek100

>>35617357
sure

but the elites will be worse than the tested elites because of participation

more participation = better at the top

desu the 10% participation rule doesnt even involve the crucial fact that not everyone in the weightclass is on the same amount of steroids as the top

so basically, untested is a joke compared to IPF

>>35617186
10% of what

if it's their total, thats the difference between a 600kg and 700kg total. that's huge

>only

>>35617256
I bought insoles, but they were shitty. So I looked at google for better insoles, got an idea of what I needed, called for an orthopedian time in my town, explained what I wanted and he understood me. Next week I'll go there and get next level false feet insoles. I'm gonna lift up my ''big toe'' along with the arch. This is a physical problem. It has physical solutions. We must be able to fix it.

I hope the insoles will make me more stable and allow the adductors to relax a bit, making it easier to stretch me fully open. Possibly make me get into a good squat position with possibilities for good movement mechanics.

>>35617334
This. Powerlifting generally, but untested feds specially aren't big enough to be saturated with talent. The smaller the talent pool is, the worse the top(generally). Drugs/no weigh-ins and different equipment play a huge role in why lolfeds have bigger numbers then the larger IPF.

Day 92 blog: my last post doesn't count because it was only about my first session.

Felt like shit today during squats between classes, still worked up to 475, which admittedly felt way better than my warmups, but not enough so to keep going up. Got some crazy quad soreness and some random pains in my knee and shoulder.

Went to class, went home, jerked off, and took a nap. Went back to the gym feeling much better.

Worked up in front squats and attempted a max of 370. Felt easy and smooth going down but I tipped too far forward and lost it out of the hole. How the fuck do you guys not revert to backsquat form under heavy front squats? My upper back and quads should be able to handle that weight.

Doing SS basically with weighted dips, on my 4th session, gonna ride the linear gains out and then come back to benching. Hit 3x5 with 20lbs way too easy for my fat weight. Then did 1xf with 1pl8 to see where I was and got 5.

Hit some incline DB bench, skull crushers, side raises, and face pulls.

Nah, you just need to figure out what's wrong, also I believe you could squat so much more if you adopted a wider stance and kept a straighter back, your limbs are too long for your current setup imho. Also try to find a type of programming that keeps you motivated, that's the #1 thing

>>35618448
Nah, maybe VERY tight knee wraps could.
I don't think you'd be able to fit a knee sleeve so tight it damages your knee

>>35618474

>also I believe you could squat so much more if you adopted a wider stance and kept a straighter back, your limbs are too long for your current setup imho.


yep, makes sense. Except when your hip sockets are all fucked up and you are physically unable to go wider because bones are touching lel.

this is part of the reason I'm thinking of adopting an active recovery day / stretching day, specifcally to hammer my groin every single time and try to get that shit opened up the best I can.

>>35616823
Isley you sound mad as fuck tbqh

I just watched a video of Jason Blaha and he said that 270lbs was a respectable bench for a natty (the guy in question trained for 7years).

So people can skyrocket from 110lbs bench to 220lbs in a year and then it takes 6 more years to reach "just" 270lbs ? If that is true that really fucking sucks.

>>35618597
Blaha is a joke

>>35618597
For a casual gym goer. He said "non-competitive".

I actually agree to an extent. If you get too caught up in what the elite are doing you are most likely never going to feel good about yourself.

>>35618597
270 is only respectable for a twink who hasn't been training more than a few years

But I will say the road from 2 plate to 3 plate is much longer than the road to 2 plate

I can't confirm that, but I'm pretty inclined to believe i have really deep recessed hip sockets. I've tried gently moving my hips around to find the edges of it and i can notice a definite spot where my legs just aren't capable of going. it just happens to be part of the range of motion for a wide stanced squat

Used to be right with my dad and then guess what?
Steroids blast up the bench.

I'm not against it lad, go for it, but who's going to acknowledge that

>>35618597
>listened to blaha

*facepalm*

270 is average as shit if you're over 140lb in bw. +300 should be achievable for most under 200 desu. And the heavier you are the larger than number becomes of course. However if you're +6ft and sub 200 then you're doomed to be shit because you're a fucking skinny weed.

>>35618713

tl;dr - the statement itself is fine and most likely true.

The context was the the way he [brandon lolly] was doing things was objectively bad, and the "I could do that much if......" was the rationalization as to why it was bad. That doesn't hold any water:

>his training is retarded because its the juice making him stronger not the training

or, maybe juicing it makes more sense to train like that, because you don't have to fucking grind pants-on-head retarded amounts of fucking grueling volume, destroying your body in the process, to get 15 kg on your total.

basically, you don't logically get to compare across the two.

Also, there are MUCH better fucking arguments as to why the IPF is the "one true fed" than "hurrrr they all just do sturroids and its not fair waaaah"

which is why i refrained from blowing up. realized it halfway through.

Ι recently started laggin on my lifts and I realized that I was stupid enough to not think the lbs part on the popular strength programs and I was adding 1.25kg(the smallest plates in my gym) on each side for the lifts. Well obviously deadlifts and squats weren't that much of a problem but my bench fucking stalled at 70kg 3x5 and ohp at 50kg 3x5. Do you think that the +2.5kg total was a big reason that this happened ?

nah i think that's just where the progress tends to stall on SS for smaller guys desu. if you can further microload you might be able to eek out a little more progress but i think you need to change programming for upper body lifts.

>>35619191
No. Microplates would help a bit but I know plenty of people who got good results and never used them. Eat more sleep more and consider doing a program less reliant on microplates like candito lp or hepburn

do you lift in the gym near a private highschool off of 40?

I know there to be one near it, and was wondering if you suggested it.

>>35619313
Is their an incline bench or a smith machine you can hang a barbell off?
Not very safe as if you fail a rep you have to drop the weight but if you don't go to failure its better than nothing

>>35619125
IIRC only 30-something people have ever benched over 600lbs/272kg in competition though, while there are millions of steroid users in the United States alone. Lilly is exceptionally good at benching, he's not like that tard from fraud trying to brag about a 170kg bench after years on gear.

I understand your point and I'm not starting an argument, just pointing out that he's not a good example of what you're talking about.

>>35619314
Sean does sheiko 3 day so no he didn't.
And since he can't bench or deadlift he only lifts twice a week doing half the workout each time.

>>35619333
>I bet you can do that every week right!
Sometimes. This has been a fun week :)

>>35619334
>do you lift in the gym near a private highschool off of 40?

>>35619354
>since he can't bench or deadlift he only lifts twice a week doing half the workout each time.
Sweet Jesus. That sounds miserable.

>>35619270
its not that the programming is bad its just that you aren't at that level anymore. Texas method is a frequent next step. someone else suggested Candito's linear or hepburn. Buda's idea is more fundamental and less "do this" but it'll probably help you learn.

"The Lab?" I think there is a breddy strong /fit/ dude that lifts there. Strongtoast maybe?

Heard it's a decent gym.

Eagle in Overland, and Max Effort in Maplewood are more "serious" PL oriented gyms. Eagle is basic, grungy, and "iron lyfe", where Max Effort is a bit more "USAPL" oriented (but it is invite only).

Either way, there are some good options near you :) Max Effort has an 850 lb puller, Eagle has some impressive specimens as well.

Eagle is only $5 for a daily visit. Rick is the owner. They have a monolift, decent benches, some good DL bars, and a boxing ring if you're feeling spicy.

Max Effort you'll have to call to arrange an interview/visit. I would LOVE to train there, but it's too far of a drive, and I don't have the time :(

I've heard great stuff about the Lab, though. I used to live right across from Forest Park, but I moved before it opened, I guess.

Interesting. I guess I'm going into intermediate level and because of reasons,imbalances it hit me. I will look into the programs you suggested although candito's always makes me anxious about the free exercise selections sigh...I tend to overthink things you see. Are there any ready templates with optional exercises so I do what it must be done with no complicating my shit ? Also if you are bored don't continue replying me. I don't need spoonfeeding. We are on /fit/ afterall so apparently we know where to find things online so that's just chit-chatting and all cause were very helpful so far.

>>35618597
It took me 4 months to get to 2pl8. 1.5 years later I only bench 245. But I've had to start over twice because of surgeries 2 years in a row. My bench actually went from 225 to 245 in 6 weeks doing Candito's 6 week program. Can't wait to get to 3pl8.

Partly to protect shoulders (debatable) and partially to increase pushing strength through leverage.

the only time I've ever been injured was from when I benched with a flat back like an idiot and fucked my shoulder

if ur not lucky to have a good gym nearby you might as well invest in a home gym desu

i live in area with like 10 gyms nearby and they all fucking suck. like how do these things even stay in business, half of them dont even have free weight areas and only like 2 of them have a squatrack.

a new gym opened up walking distance from my place so i went there once. No squat rack, 1 barbell and a fuck ton of random machines.

The floor was laminate so i asked one of the "instructors" if deadlifting was ok, they had no idea what a deadlift was. after explaining they said no and that i shouldnt deadlift because it would be bad for my back (mind you i dl 6 plates and am twice as big as them).

literally nothing grinds my gears more than casuals being ignorant about strength training.

a home gym was the best investment i ever made, its pretty cost efficient too if you have the room to spare

I'm not sure... here are the rules:
Two people must consumer the ENTIRE pizza in ONE HOUR without leaving the customer area at Pointer's
The pizza must have any combination of TWO meat toppings or FOUR vegetable toppings
ALL crusts and toppings must be swallowed ENTIRELY for the contest to be ruled complete
Competitors must pay $50 in advance. In the event of winning the contest, the $50 will be refunded along with a check for $500
A maximum of SIX spectators are allowed in the customer area at any given time, and must stay out of the competition area
Contestants must call at least ONE DAY in advance for reservations to try the challenge, preferred to be at 3pm any day of the week. Any derivations are at the manager's discretion.
Napkins may not be used to absorb pizza juices.
Promotion and photographs of your success may be used by Pointer's Delivery.

>>35620126
how can it fuck with you? as long as it doesnt permanently bend and is pretty stiff you should be fine right

>>35620184
kek

i would rather a taco bell then a McDicks

>>35620188
yes those are really nice, but the price of that isnt going to weigh up to the incremental benefits it gives training wise

>>35620173
>>35620190
I honestly can't explain it but I always always have better sessions training on a nice bar(all 3 lifts) than on a no-name bar, and I'm not the only one.

I also managed to permanently warp a strength shop bar in like two months this summer, so that's something to look out for.

>>35620251
But it's so expensive. I need a new barbell, any recommendations for something decent? The on I have now sucks. The ends shift around because the screws on the sides get loose.

ohio power bars are great. Its what I have access to in my gym. shits cheap and really solid. the knurling is just a LITTLE too aggressive for my taste unfortunately for a training bar.

My bar has smooth knurling. Anythings better than that.

Remember that time when Seen couldn't keep his word, like a little kid instead of a man?

>>35620319
What's the usual bar diameter at an ipf meet? Sorry, I'm completely clueless about this stuff.

>Remember that time when Seen couldn't keep his word, like a little kid instead of a man?

I do!

Do you remember the time that Seen took a picture of his nasty foot and a pointless piece of home gym equipment that he doesn't actually use? >>35620305

Ahah what's the matter Buda, can't afford a cable machines or leg extension on a teachers salary?

>>35620504
Holy fuck I hope budas school has a nurses office cause he's gonna need some BURN medication

>>35620504
>can't afford a cable machines or leg extension on a teachers salary?

What's the point in having them if you don't use them?

I may lift in poverty, but at least I lift :)

>>35620524
>I hope budas school has a nurses office
We are fully stocked in all necessary medical equipment, yes. Also, I am First Aid and AED Certified, so I can administer my own creams and salves in regards to my burned anus.

Oh.. My.. God.. Buda LITERALLY and OBJECTIVLEY blown the fck out

To post pictures of on the internet you IDIOT

>>35620504
you have very feminine feet

>>35620009
Two powerlifters could manage one 28" pizza. It is equal to 4 regular pizzas. I can eat one pizza easily and I'm what you might call a twink.

>>35620598
>Two powerlifters could manage one 28" pizza.
I'd like to think so.

However, it is 10 lbs (just a heads up). 4 veggies, or 2 meat toppings.

1 hour. That's tough.

Last winners were in 2013.

>>35620549
"No".

>>35620565
No I dont

>>35620686
they are very narrow

that is a feminine trait for feet

>>35620627
The advantage for a weightlifter is that they are training for competitive eating without realizing. Frequent snacking and then force feeding for a surplus post-workout is similar to how hotdog contest eaters train.

>>35620759
No they're just narrow feet, that's all
People with narrow feet typically are much faster, quicker and agile
This is complimented by my high calf insertions which are also ideal for speed

>>35620855
nah m8 sorry for you l0ss

i hope you have wider feet in your next life

>>35620884
Wide feet are for slow stocky looking betas like benchbeta

>>35620905
sure thing kid

>>35620905
>Wide feet are for slow stocky looking betas

Just my own anecdote, but my feet are 2E width (wide).

I have decent (and legitimate) track times from 400m through 10000m.

In my experience working with athletes who run and lift, narrow feet are seldom an asset.

>>35620855
>high calf insertions
lmoaaa

>>35620855
>insertions
I don't think that word means what you think it means

>>35620935
>400m-1000m

Just as I suspected

Too slow for the real sprints (100, 200) I see
Leave those for the narrow feet masterrace ;)

Wew lads, cutting ducking blows

>>35620987
>Too slow for the real sprints
Nah.

After focusing on strength, speed development, and plyos, I was able to achieve very respectable short sprint times as well (post mid/long distance tenure).

I also learned to pole vault, long jump, triple jump, and high jump to a small degree of proficiency.

What events did you compete in (in track)?
