Are black basketball shorts and a plain dark navy tshirt appropriate attire on a first date? Not sure about shoes yet.

What does this mean? I do have self-respect, that's why I don't bother dressing up and pretending. Clothes are clothes, there's no significance to them, they're superficial and consumerist.

You can spend minimal amount of money on clothes by buying second hand shit and dress well. The way you dress is an expression of your personality.

Conventional block pulls are shit

what are your feelings regarding partial overhead presses (starts and lockouts from rack)

>>37220331
dude thats the gayest thing ive ever fucking read and i've read twilight AND homestuck

whether you like it or not, you massive pussy, people are going to judge you based on what you look like.

basketball shorts and a t-shirt to a first date says a couple of things, namely that you don't care about whether or not that person finds you attractive.

would you want to date someone who didn't care if they were attractive to you? no? because it might be a red flag, pointing towards other issues, such as being so fucking edgy that instead of viewing the criticisms as outsiders as valid, they choose to construct their own deluded reality where "there's no significance to clothing" and dressing nicely = pretending.

you really think you're so fucking great? you're just lazy and rationalizing it. try harder in life.

i guess just pay attention to the inflammation, if it gets worse or if you feel it strongly when outside of the gym then you should probably take a break from whatever's causing it. even just taking a week or two off from lower body lifts can help. then ease back in with light rehab work, then slowly work back up to lmao4plate. even if you "lose" a month that's better than trying to work through a steadily worsening injury. you'll end up stronger if you let it heal, figure out what's causing the inflammation (either a form issue, overwork, or some kind of muscular imbalance), and address it

rolling/massaging will help a lot along with stretching, i'd imagine like most people you're probably pretty tight. ice after too.

add in hip abductions, hip rotations and related exercises, they're super helpful with strengthening those surrounding muscles (like glut min and med) and theres a billion ways to do them. strengthening your other hip muscles (not just your hip extenders) will not only help your problem but increase your overall leg strength too

Reposting from last night. Super excited, these events should go well for me (except log press, fuck that) and because they define lightweight as u200 so I won't be in the same division as the 230s (I weigh like 193.)

hey /plg/, what is your opinion on the existence of over training?

I'm currently on a slow and steady cut and doing my best to minimize gains loss. I lost 20 lbs on my DL and found myself completely unable to finish my light accessory DLs after finishing with my working sets

After cutting them out and replacing them with a simple sit up/plank regimen I've seen my max go back up 10 lbs without adding calories

You just had fatigue accumulated and hadn't recovered. Common issue that leads to underperforming.

"Overtraining" implies you've been accumulating so much fatigue that your body can't recover and starts "crashing". It's not easy to get there, unless you're pretty strong and want to.

What about "overtraining" in terms of tendons? I feel like I'm recovering more than fine, but tendon issues always become a limiting factor, more so the stronger I get. I feel like I'm forced to undertrain, take time off, become detrained, repeat, all because of this perpetual bullshit.

Still, probably just underperforming because of fatigue accumulation, not legit overtraining. Just needing a better amount of rest (or food) from high intensity/volume workouts.

>>37223897

What tendon issues, specifically? Impingement usually doesn't have to do with "overtraining".
Some issues with inflammation can be reduced by balancing out the training a bit (like doing curls or chinups for the biceps tendons).

Monthly newsletter from USAPL National office:

Welcome to the May edition of our online newsletter. There are a number of very exciting things happening this month, and the year to date has been a successful and productive one. In 2015, USA Powerlifting finished the year with 11,300 members. As of now, we have 9,600 members already. Our growth is mirrored in the number of meet sanctions, with approximately 200 projected for 2016. That level of growth is a testament to your efforts at the local level, and especially the quality and outreach our State Chairs, coaches, and athletes. Thank you all.

This month, Denver hosts the Men's and Women's Open Nationals. Through this meet, we select our Open and Master teams for IPF World Championships, Regional Competition, and other international meets. It also serves as another selection meet for our Junior and Subjunior National Teams, the earlier ones being High School and Collegiate Nationals. These competitions mirror our Raw program, and teams identical in number and divisions are nominated at the International level in the both the Raw and Equipped divisions. The National Governing Body meeting is held in conjunction with Open Nationals. The business of the Federation is conducted, and guidance given to the Executive and paid staff for the coming year. Election of open Executive Committee members is held during this meeting and nominees are selected for the honorary awards, such as the Brother Bennett Award, Coach of the Year, Referee of the Year. The agenda is posted at www.usapowerlifting.com. Please review it and contact your State Chairs with your input. They represent you through vote and voice at the NGB meeting.

1/2

>>37223897

Over-training in the sense we understand it isn't real. However, the one two punch of physical fatigue and mental brunout can sure fuck with your training.

Tendon issues aren't from "over-training" they're from failing to address the issue at hand.

Anywho, nn lads

>>37224040
2/2

On the negative side of our growth, we continue to increase the number of drug test positives we have. As you are aware, we test a minimum of 10% of competitors in-competition, and have a robust out-of-competition testing program. It includes a variety of testing panels, including anabolics, stimulants, diuretics, and masking agents. We test for designer drugs, recreational drugs, and for new generation substances such as Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators and Meldonium (recently added to the WADA Banned Substance List). We have increased the percentage of testing done through WADA accredited laboratories, and blood testing is also on the horizon for USA Powerlifting athletes.

One area of growing concern is the use of hormone replacement strategies in both men and women. These substances and strategies are not approved under the WADA Code and aren't allowed in USA Powerlifting. The recent increase in drug test failures reflects our determination to keep the playing field level and our platform fair for those who do not use these drugs. While you and your doctor may choose these treatments based on your individual medical history, using them renders you ineligible for competition in USA Powerlifting, and in the International Powerlifting Federation. Please be aware that there is NO Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) for hormone replacement, either for men or for women.

Please follow our upcoming developments, and support the athletes of USA Powerlifting. Our National events are listed on our website, and through social media, and our results are posted as well. We are looking forward to a great 2016.

It's to reduce the number of cheaters. Not the amount of positives.

>>37224330
>>claims multiple times that the purpose and benefit of drug testing is to reduce positives in a sport
wat
isley has said some dum shit, but that's wrong. the point is to reduce usage in the sport. if they were just out to reduce positives, they would test the bottom of the barrel guys, not the Norris-tier guys

>>37224330

I'm pretty sure that Isleys position is that he wants the positives to go to zero because people are no longer trying to beat them, not because more people are trying and failing to beat them.

>>37224325
No, you bring it to the ground in a controlled fashion, not just let it go

>>37224361
>technique points
Lel. That would be fun.

>>37224344
Yes, and increasing positives means there's statistically more PED users. They're not being dissuaded, despite the testing. According to you, however, the trend should be going down, especially over time as testing efforts increase. But it's going up, up, and up, and the weight is sinking this ragged amateur pontoon.

>>37224384

>>37224423

>>37224393
>No, that's not true
What, that increased positives don't suggest more usage? It doesn't make sense otherwise; banning and suspensions should reduce the pool and positives should go down over time, except that isn't happening. And if the majority of testing is random, yet positives have gone up, then there's no other explanation other than increased usage, unless they've been really lucky in selecting.
>that's not my position
If you don't believe the positives should be trending down, then what exactly do you see as the endgoal of drug testing to be? To make an example of a select few, bring good PR to the sport, a sense of calm, while it perpetually remains overrun with cheaters (who're evolving in their abilities to compete tested alongside any increased testing effort conducted)? It's just a hopeless effort then.

>>37224555
No. Inc positives can be from increased use or by better /more testing. You can't tell which.

Hopefully they're not doing random testing.

Positives don't necessarily trend down a great deal in an increasing member population but the proportional trend still can. The IAAF used to be obsessed with hiding their positives. Look where that got them. Personally I like increased positive tests. Show that testing is working better and those are all drug cheats getting caught, discredit, shamed and banned. Love it.

>>37224555

Better testing (both in terms of how frequently/rapidly you can test and in terms of what you can test for) will also spike positive rates. As we keep seeing in sports where they have the resources to hold old samples for future retesting - new test methods come out and suddenly a bunch of 'clean' samples are testing positive for something.

Not saying his clean was bad, but i am sure he could jerk alot more than he could clean. If he can comfortably push press 225 he could have probably jerked 250

I am a little bit concerned by the fact that i never have sore triceps after benching, even when i had some time off and get back to lifting.

My chest often gets sore, but my triceps i dont even feel.

My grip is pretty wide and thus i flare quite noticeably ... Is that why? Or should i feel my triceps nontheless and am missing something?

Same here m8,I have babby arms too and they just won't grow.

>>37226207
This is why you should ohp with a narrow grip

>>37225981
think he actually tried 255 or so in training once and rekt his shoulders

>>37226211
My arms are quite big though, big and fat lel.

>>37226254
What's the point? If i don't utilize my triceps in the benchpress, then there is no benefit of me strengthing it.

I am just wondering if other lifters experience the same.

I feel like that when you have a wide grip you naturally flare less and thus have less to no triceps.

Yea, i figured, your voice is ... unique.

Was just looking so see how much big benchers flare, and it seems that none of them tuck and all of them flare quite hard.

>>37226661
Tucking is an equipped meme

Unique as in bad? That bully.

What's a good 5 day program? I feel like I've been fucking around trying to sort my own programming out and just want something that works. I don't mind high volume.

I think it's not only an equipped but also a roider-meme.
I believe roiders benefit from tucked elbows because they can bodybuild their triceps really well and make it really strong.

>as in bad?
That interpretation is all on you lad

>>37226729
Both of these don't seem purely focused on powerlifting, or am I misreading? Also a 13 week cycle for PH3 is way too long of a cycle, looking for things around a month. Thanks anyway

>>37226865
Make a 5 day routine from greg nuckols 28 free programs.

>>37226865
so what the fuck do you want? A low volume cookie cutter for beginners?

>>37226884
I'd thought about this, if I were to throw together a 3x bench, 3x squat and 2x dead thing, what would be best for putting them on to 5 continuous days of training?

>>37226889
Doesn't have to be low volume at all, but I can't seem to find something that goes for 5 days, most are either 3 or 4, and I'm too dumb to make my own 5 day one

>>37226926
Why does it need to be 5 days?
