A lowbar half squat is harder than some sissy ATG bullshit. He doesn't even look like a lifter.

>>36712156
Are you implying that the Olympics draws from a bigger talent pool than a hobby? This is ridiculous

How's that 100kg ayteegee coming along?

>>36712282
i think powerlifting lacks discipline and brain, improving technique by stretching, learning and practice movements will result in a better, deeper and heavier squat more than just 'brute force' it

>>36712186
lol lowbar half squat is way easier than high bar ATG. My high bar ATG squat is 345 and my low bar "PL" squat is 405.

>>36713510
bait or retarded

>>36712918
p. much this. Liu is basically an elite super human. He is the best of the best, and was bred to olylift from birth by the chinese government. Most PL guys have day jobs and families and shit.

>>36713536
Either your low bar is way high or you have very weak quads

>>36713521

how much can you snatch then
oh wait
you can't

I have overdeveloped hamstrings and weak af quads. I front squat all the time to try to level the imbalance but nothing as of yet has been working.

>>36713578
youve been front squatting incorrect then fix your form

>>36713592
is there anything else I can do? Do quad isolations work at all or should I just keep front squatting and high bar?

>>36713614
nope just keep front squatting, also do paused front squats

never do leg extensions or similiar shit you'll only fuck up your knees

>>36713668

>>36713073

Powerlifting was spawned by strong lifters who had average results in the classics because they couldn't into technique.

Lern u summa dat histry, boy.

powerlifters have to have ass on bench

>>36713073
Powerlifters invented monolift because they can't walk with weights, because their lack of technique.
Look at the quads development, powerlifter can't even request all the muscles of the quads when doing the movement, it's all lower back and glutes, almost all of them tilt they torso forward trying to "get lower" because their lack of mobility

>>36715541
That's not why the torso comes forward on a low bar squat, you idiot.

>>36715626
sure, it's because good movement bending foward and loosing the balance

>>36712156

Why is it not seen as really really reckless and dangerous to squat that much wihtout safety bars? I know that high bar allows you to dump the bar easily but things could still go wrong, surely?

>>36715676
Moron. Bar is further back, and hips are further back. Forward lean keeps the bar weight over mid foot.

>>36712156
Lu's squat there isn't far below parallel

Harldly aeeteegee

>>36715769
im not criticizing low bar squat, a good low bar squat will always maintain the angle of the torso, look at the video where the first image came from, almost all of them cant go deeper because they don't have enough dorsiflexion, so they tilt forward, and obviously lose balance. And we're taking about "elite" athletes not amateurs, unjustifiable

>>36715688
I mean when they snatch or jerk, it's going directly over their head with no guarantee of catching it right

they just need to be able to dump in whatever scenario when it goes bad

Considerations
>powerlifting as a sport doesn't get as many good good recruits as weightlifting
>powerlifting doesn't get as good resources
Longer training, better coaching (relative to sport), better nutrition, better budget,

I still believe that oly-lifting produces better overall athletes.

It's like comparing gymnasts to yogis

>>36716417
also:
powerlifting is a hobby for lots, olympic lifting is in the olympics and athletes are chosen and trained as babies basically

>>36712156

>lolfed lifter

>>36719301
>powerlifting is so shit its completely decentralized because retards are too power hungry to let anyone else do it properly

this is why powerlifting will never be in the olympics

>>36720378

It got decentralised because the people running the show beforehand were a plague of useless cunts.

Of course, even if it was perfectly organised its not going in the Olympics.

>>36715206
That webm always makes me giggle uncontrollably, I don't know why.

What's the choral music you have in the background?

>one squat is better than the other

unless you faggots actually compete on IPF or Olympics it doesn't fucking matter how you squat you fucking autists

and based of the last strawpoll most of you faggots have been lifting under 1 year

oly lifters train the squat just as much as powerlifters. there's no reason to expect oly lifters to have a lighter squat than a powerlifter even if it's not a competitive lift for them.

actually they typically squat more often than powerlifters because many oly lifting programs are 6 days a week while typical powerlifting programs have you squat 2-3 times a week. dietmar wolf, the norwegian powerlifting coach, has a background in oly lifting and he implemented this oly-style, higher frequency training in the norwegian powerlifting routines. to great success.

>>36712186
>lowbar harder

>>36720378
>>36720411

Powerlifting is literally in the olympics though.

>>36720860
except it's not

>>36720760

It's mostly because in weightlifting you either roid or you gtfo. There are many natty lifters in powerlifting. So that's why their squats tend to be higher even though they do stupid programming like "just max out everyday!"
