No. Honestly fuck off with that. This is a no bully zone.

You fucking monster.

Today was volume snatch-grip deadlifts.

If you'll excuse me, I have to go die now.

My snatch grip (with straps) isn't too far from my conventional pull... I hate being bad at DL :(

>>35395551

it was.

I may also have decided that, since this would be my last deadlifting session of the year, that I would do my bodyweight for my age in reps conventional. If I had any conditioning whatsoever that would not have been a problem.

It was a problem.

Do you want to talk with your best pals me and luke in the official instasync? cause this threads prolly just going to get deleted againt oo hard to keep a conversation up in here

>>35395575
>trying to bait with the official thing
The instasync wars ended long ago.

Alright lads.

I've worn my Barbell apparel jeans for three days in a row now.

It's a strange feeling: they're light, and because of the spandex, feel cheaper than my old Nudies (R.I.P.) and A.P.C.s (R.I.P. in Piece), even cheaper than my Levi commuters.

The mobility though, is fucking nutty. I can only compare this to that time I wore a kilt. I will say too, that the cheap feel is probably because I'm not used to jeans with any sort of stretch factor. Zipper seems quality, and my lowbar ass fits into these bad boys beautifully.

Could probably do an entire squat workout with them on.


Will follow through with review of powerlift 2.0's tomorrow.

>>35395643
>my lowbar ass fits into these bad boys beautifully.

Pictures please. For... science and stuff.

How much do those run? Jeans have been the bane of my clothes shopping experience. At least with slacks I can buy synthetic golf pants.

>>35395666

They cost waaaay too much money

http://barbellapparel.com/

>i seriously can't wait to be finished with memeko


I'm not sure what i'm going to do. the weight cut is looking bleak (thanks christmas and my natural fat ass)

Option 1) go through with weight cut, do garbage at local meet, probably still take top 3 male lifter over all, qualify for 2016 nats in the 120 class

Option 2) push back current meet to a later meet somewhere else, make the cut a little easier and have a little more time to try and git gud

the real benefit of option 2is that i get time to fuck off and do things i want to do.
>front squats
>ohp
>lifting 5-7 days a week doing wtf ever I want to, gaining some sanity back etc


i haven't looked into what meet I would do if i put it off yet.. but option 2 sounds nice. When are 2016 nats? initial google is failing me (i must be retarded)

>>35395699
>Option 1) go through with weight cut, do garbage at local meet, probably still take top 3 male lifter over all, qualify for 2016 nats in the 120 class

You can get comfy stretchy jeans for cheap from Marks for 30-40 Syrup Coins.

Yes you do, unless you qualify at 105kg or under.

If you lads sit around all day and then try to get up and run without a warmup, can you?

My back will lock up on me and it sucks.

>>35395928
>and heres some guy trying to commit suicide or something with 555lbs
looks quite happy too for failing

Steve Harris Well this looks like as good a place as any for me to break my silence. Everything you read is fact. I can back up every single thing I speak of with documented proof that is legally sound.
GPA Worlds was a massive failure, despite what the organisers would have you think. CAPO was left with $230,000+ worth of debt to creditors. Myself being the largest creditor who was owed $170,000+. CAPO was on the brink of extinction. A restructure was agreed to with the forming of the new CAPO that took on the good will of the previous. In effect Wayne Howlett owned the old CAPO and I owned the new.
It came to my attention that members of the committee, led by Karen Coliero had taken steps to try and circumvent the agreed corporate restructure and form their own federation. This led me to investigate further into CAPOs previous financial situation and it wasn’t pretty.
The most distressing thing I uncovered was that CAPO for up to 3 years had never lodged any tax return. No quarterly BAS statements, no income tax and no GST. It wasn’t even registered for GST. Not one receipt had ever been issued by CAPO. THIS IS TAX EVASION. All funds that had gone to CAPO for membership, entry fees and sponsorship was going directly into Karen Coleiro’s private bank accounts. You all have evidence of this, just look at the account name on any payment you made to CAPO, you will notice Karen’s name on all of them. THIS IS TAX FRAUD. These tax implications add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Criminal charges and jail time are a real possibility.
Where has all the money gone?? Not a cent came to me, the largest creditor owed money. Your guess is as good as mine. There is no financial records at all. No profit and loss, no Monthly income statements, nothing. Not a single piece of evidence to prove anything. Repeated Not even a bank statement has been provided. Karen was given a chance to provide this information and she did not or would not.

>>35395833
ok. that makes more sense. I was about to get pretty upset that i started cutting weight during volume in sheiko and fucking myself harder than i needed to lol

>>35395941
I can run, but i CANNOT squat. if i sit around all day, it will take me at least 20-30 minutes of getting my hips greased up to work right for squats. and even then, i usually don't start looking half decent until i'm almost at my working weight any ways

2% spandex, can squat atg in them and they look like regular jeans

>>35396068

I agree. They were a gift and some peeps were asking. The best pair of post squat-ass jeans I've ever had were those Levi commuters because they have a bit of stretch, but most importantly they have a reinforced crotch.

Yeesh. I imagine the Canadian Powerlifting Union is mostly run by strong, quiet men, who chop wood and club seals in their spare time.

>>35396144

Just that one. GPC and IPL guys tend to merely buy their gear from bikies.

Just a ton of submax sets on big compounds over a 3-4 week cycle dropping reps/adding weight each week. Either upper/lower or full body depending on how my recovery is feeling.

>deload week overlaps holiday break

I love and hate deload. On one hand I needed it and on the other I feel like a fat lazy weak fuck sitting around consuming massive amounts of food that I am barely burning off

I'm torn bros

>>35396635
try lifting heavy but lower volume?

Generally what I've been hearing is the right way to deload recently.

>>35396635

This happened to me last week, and I felt awful lifting at %50 because all the out-of-towners probably thought they were stronger than me.

Use the food to fuel your comeback.

I just want you to know that rye whiskey sucks ass

I tried some Whistle Pig 100% rye the other night and almost puked

I read Squat Every Day, fwiw. Can't watch the video now

>>35397585

Max generally isn't as crazy as Broz though.

Broz seems to think he can and should replicate how the Bulgarian machine worked (right down to the burnout rate) without any of the support they had. Its no wonder he's got jack-shit results on the platform and has been reduced to whining about how its unfair his lifters have to abide by the testing rules.

>>35397622

Whew.

Better not train for him then, lad.

Mats are down to 3 inches. As expected, the conventional pulls are getting easier as they get lower. Sumo's a shitshow though, I have no idea how to set up, and the first rep winds up being far harder than the rest of the set. I haven't decided yet whether I'm going with 545 or 585 on the next round.

80% is so much more intimidating this cycle than last cycle. i'm expecting this workout to be harder than a 7.5/10 on the hardness scale this time...

I wish I just stuck to pl

It was JUST what I expected, this martial art is nothing but a glib facsimile.
If judo was all I had access to as a child in terms of sports I probably would become one of those crazy fanboys, but thankfully I had access to anime from very early on in my youth years that my
mental balance is very stable.
Seriously, if you have watched Akira, you'd realize just how sophisticated anime is and it blows away anything judo would have to offer.
A lot of people mention Ghost In The Shell, which has just enough of sexuality in the mix to draw in the western audience I suppose but I must say that Ghost In The Shell is not even in my top 10 anime, not
even close, that's just how deep the world of anime is.
Some anime is so disturbingly mature like Fractale that I wish it would challenge the system and submit it as a Drama category in the Oscars just to bitchslap the snotty Academy.
It's not just the level of maturity and sophistication anime has, it's also quite original, entertaining, and visually fantastic. I would regard anime as the highest form of cinema art-form.
But hey, me preaching about anime won't do you any good, you gotta go out and see it for yourself just how much you are missing.
The recent one I would recommend to check out is Sword Art Online which is light and easy to get into anime for the first time yet appreciate it as much, but if you want the heavy stuff right off the line
check out Guilty Crown in which the plot is so complex and twisted that you'll need extra oxygen pumped into your brain in order to comprehend everything, and if you want amazing visuals and a gripping
drama that also has awesome mecha battles Aldnoah.Zero is the shit.
Seriously, if you know anime like I do, judo looks like it's something for little kids.

Does anyone incorporate sprinting into their workouts?

>>35399292
Afterwards on days I'm not lifting. If you want specialised training for sprinting then get a coach, they appear to be abundant.

>>35399285
Yeah it's definitely not him

>>35399305
I've never been fast, wouldn't even know how to start training

What do you think would be more valuable for my bench?

Mark rippetoes lying triceps extensions
JM Press
Elbows out extensions

I've always done LTE but it seems the last 2 may have better bench carry over.

What do you think lads? I train triceps twice a week so I could always do 2 of these.

>>35399321
I like to do face pulls

>>35399315
A coach is your best friend, unfortunately I don't think you'll find much helpful information on 4chan.
I wouldn't say the information here is always bad, but even I give out bad advice unknowingly on occasion.

>normally have to sleep 9-10h per night to feel good
>skipped 2 sessions
>automatically wake up after 6-7h

Am I pushing myself too hard?

>>35399329
That's a hamstring movement bro, I'm trying to train triceps.

Although you reminded me that I probably have fucked form for those

>>35399321

They kind of fill different niches. JM presses are supplemental/heavy accessory lifts - you can really push the weight up and the reps down if you want to (within reason, there's not much point taking them for heavy singles). LTEs and tate presses lend themselves much more to being light pump work.

All can be valuable, but it depends on your training needs.

>>35399344
Face pulls are where you use a rope on a cable machine and pull it to your face. Not really a hamstring movement

>>35399356
I was kidding

>>35399353
I see, I appreciate the help but I'm still a little lost.
All I do LTE for currently is size because I have girly triceps and as well as that if my triceps get bigger so will my bench press.
However I just discovered JM Press and Elbow out extensions and they supposedly have a greater carry over for bench? If I did them for high volume I assume size gains would be fhe same with the added benefit of better bench carry over perhaps?

I don't really know

>>35399373

They were and are staples of a lot of geared benchers. Do they have better carryover than LTEs? I don't know. Plenty of people have sworn by both, as well as a thousand other exercises. You'd have to find out for yourself.

If I had to prescribe them, I'd say do some moderately heavy JM presses on whichever tricep day has the least stressful workload and throw some high rep LTEs or tate presses on the more stressful day.

>>35399394
Alright thanks for your help, I have one more dumb concern though: Eric Spoto seems or prefer JM press over LTES because he claims LTE cause shoulder pain.

So many people have told me they experience shoulder pain from LTE but Ive been soing them for a while and yet to experience any pain at all.
Maybe I'm doing them too light? Do you think the pain is anecdotal due to bad flexibility or pretty common?

That would sway what assistance I chose desu

I would imagine the pain is probably mobility related - bench specialists tend to have jacked up shoulders and its not super-rare for more balanced powerlifters to have either mobility or injury issues related to that joint. If you can do them without pain, there's likely no issue with continuing to do them.

Is Joseph Mobley (Benching brother) here?

Is Phillip vän (Body Oreo) here?

Lever belt seems to have become too tight or something overnight, it was fine yesterday and now it all bunches up loads when i try and put it on and digs in to my stomach

Anyone else experienced this?

Is Aaron fat (NorseUgly) here?

>>35399612

Have to go to a shitty crossfit style gym for a month while I move. The most you can fit on a bar is 405 because they have those massive rubber plates.

>>35400441

Need some deadlift advice:

What is a better accessory if my sticking point is around mid-shin/just below the knee; paused deadlifts (Candito style), or rack pulls?

My concern is that rack pull starting position is around my sticking point so I won't be moving through it. Also the paused deadlift means my acceleration through the sticking point would be slower.

Pic related: It's my sticking point.

>>35400589
>paused (candito style)

>>35400589
I'd do paused, but I'm just a dyel piece of shit, so don't really listen to me

>>35400894
Sounds like you're autistic

>>35400907
doesnt change the fact that i didnt invent a fucken lift m8

>>35400894
My understanding was that conventional paused deadlifts are paused around my sticking point, whereas, Candito's approach is to pause them just off off the floor.

Like if I said Ben Rice style I wouldn't be implying that Ben Rice invented paused deadlifts...

>>35400915
>i
candito* i mean

>>35400917
the CORRECT way is to pause right as the weight leaves the floor, candito didnt invent this technique

>>35400924
>candito didnt invent this technique
I didn't claim he did.
He is a well known advocate of that style and there are multiple versions of paused deadlifts so I was clarifying which one I meant.

Would you have had your autism fit if I said "paused deadlift (Ben Rice Style)"?

>>35400956
dont call me autistic

i dont know what kind of deadlift ben rice adcovates, but if he didn't invent it, dont say it's his "style"

i SERIOUSLY dislike that we are spreading misinformation like this

>>35400977
>dont call me autistic
Quit being so autistic then.

I literally said "Candito style" not "Candito's Paused Deadlift (TM)" or "The Candito Paused Deadlift".

I just meant to clarify which kind of paused deadlift I meant seeing as there are different STYLES.

Gonna go do day 75 in a little bit. Making a techno-y playlist to try something new. I feel like music selection can play into burning out.

>>35402073
Its sumo so it will be easier to get away with for sure, but I'm hesitant too. Other thought is I might pull m/w/f and do some kb swings for glutes and being less fat on the other days.

>>35402094
That sound a little more reasonable. Would you just be doing singles?

>>35402107
Yeah, other than back off work and assistance stuff I only ever do singles.

Especially with deadlifts.

>>35402094
I tried daily sumo over the summer, but ran into some hip impingement pretty quick, however I was able to make it work with 1-2 sumo sessions, and the rest being SLDL

>>35402138

I'm losing weight via dieting and I wanted to start SS/SL. I'm thinking of modified SL that is 3x5 because I can't imagine I could lift much on a 5x5 with a big deficit. Will it work for at least keeping my muscles and MAYBE gaining strength while cutting?

6" deficits
Bodybuilding style bench daily
Leg extensions (heavy)

/fit/'s novice guide to AESTHETICS:
Workout A:
2x6 Zercher squats (Prevents lower back injuries as there's no longer a 600lbs barbell directly on top of your spine)

2x8 Behind the neck press (Sets of 8 for aesthetics - going behind the neck builds more shoulder muscles)

2xF Heavy barbell shrugs (Go as heavy as you can - 405lbs is usually what a lot of beginners start with on these)

2x15 Weighted dips (this will make your delts, triceps and chest EXPLODE!)

Workout B:
2x6 Zercher squats

2x8 Incline bench (be as flat on the bench as possible - do NOT retract shoulders or make any arch, this will train your pecs far less and will only damage your shoulders)

5x5 6" Deficit deadlifts (A greater range of motion = more muscles worked = more gains)

What else?

pisses me off that people will never believe that folks like Haack/Norris/Gibbs (and others obv.) are natty because drug tests are so easily beaten. like what would you like them to do to prove they are natty? because apparently subjecting themselves to OOC drug tests and in comp drug tests apparently isn't enough. like what would convince people that they are?

Not saying that they all are, but if your only arguments are how strong they are and how drug tests can be beaten, I don't see that as a valid argument. Especially when folks like Gibbs and Norris were tested at worlds right after his last deadlift and like a week before Raw Nats.

Good to see Eric Bugenhagen being posted, love him <3 However, hack deads aren't that bad, since you don't really have to round, and even if you do, it's not that dangerous due to the weight not being in front of you (less stress on the spine). Wolf's law and Davis' law also comes into play.
