>dropping the weight
it doesn't matter why you did it, you didn't do half the lift you little fuccboi

That is so stupid desu.

The rep is the first part when it comes to a One Rep Max and especially true when it is done with DL. Do you see PL lifts being disqualified because they didn't put the weight down gently or do the judges give a thumbs up when they're standing tall with the weight?

Why does it auto add "desu" to everything I fucking say?!!

You're not at a powerlifting meet, you're lifting presumably to get stronger or more aesthetic (pick one), so do the full lift. Powerlifting meet standards for lifts are fucking retarded and only there so people can lift as much weight as possible.

The pt in the red next to her has GOAT ass and legs though. They are so thick I can't help but pack my chloroform hoping she and I are the only ones there.

Depending on your definition of gently, it does sometimes happen.

The rule is just to be in control of the weight. Most judges interpret that as being anything short of taking your hands off/losing your grip (which will get you redlighted), but some will actually give you a no-lift if they think the descent is too fast.

I understand the point, but my point was it was a single rep and that is not making me stronger, so lifting it up and dropping it is equal to lifting it up and putting it down.

So, everyone has spoken about the one thing I actually covered in my original post for some reason, but no one has mentioned anything else. Could anyone give me some advice or tips? Things that are right and things that need working on?

You're rounding slightly. Its not terrible, but its not really desirable either. Figure out why its happening and work on fixing it.

And don't spend so much time fucking around at the bottom of the lift. Get your grip, get tight/pull the slack out and go.

Thanks for that. I think it's because it was too heavy and my lower back couldn't handle it or I started too high and was leaning towards a romanian pull.
