/plg/ Powerlifting General

>>38542946
Yeah, you do a top set of 5 at say 100kg, then on Friday you do top for of 102.5kg for 3, and the following Monday you do that 102.5kg top set for 5.

I've never ran a program with easier squat progression. The rop set of 3 was always a walk in the park for me. My bench started strong but I quickly plateud so watch out for that.

>tfw pause deadlifts felt like shit today
>tfw 95% rack pulls felt great afterwards
I don't know what to feel anymore

>>38543106
Thanks man, I think my form is better when I don't wear a belt too.

>>38543083
i'm really triggered when bros call beltless lifting 'raw'

>>38543076
to answer your question from the last thread, i'm doing weekly periodization for a while, and when i'm up to ~400/325/450 i'll do more DUP work


ESME
365/315/425 current maxes

>>38543144
What's your bodyweight? Mirin' that bench

>>38543144
But it is raw, I didn't use any lifting equipment whatsoever not even chalk.

Why am I a bro?

>>38543083
You raise your legs much faster than you engage your back. You practically turn your diddly into a lower back movement. It may be possible you have a strength imbalance comparing your back/posterior chain to your quads.
I suggest deficit diddlys focusing on engaging quads and maybe front squats if you already aren't.

>>38543039
So go for 82.5 for 3 on third session?

>>38543083
Trip on homosexual Alex from plg

>>38543195
Yea, it's really easy. You're nowhere near as fatigued as you were on SS. You'll be surprised at how easy the weight moves up.

Like I said, best squat program I've ever run, for me.
Granted I am a short armed, short femured abomination from what I can tell.

>>38543227
I hope so, I'll get eating and push for it. Bulking season is upon us.

>>38543144
Nice lad, how much in kg?

Eating pizza tonight lads, does this make me chad?

>>38543187
raw was a reactionary term against the increasing use of lifting suits in the sport. 'powerlifting' implied the use of single or multi-ply suits a la westside, while 'raw' implied only a belt and wrist wraps.

'beltless' means you don't have a belt.
so while it technically is raw, when bros say beltess is 'raw' they're implying belted lifting ISN'T 'raw' and that triggers me

>>38543174
those numbers were 193 but i'm at 204 right now kek, idk what happened to my bench it just kept going up for six months from 275 to 315. probably all the assistance work though

>>38543281
Only if you do it while we're at the gym. Lifting at 7:30 est tonight. Make sure you time it well.

>>38543297
>204
Congrats on barely not being a twink. I'll get there one day. Were you gaining lots of weight when your bench shot up like that?

>>38543268
I don't even think you need to eat that big to progress on a program like madcow honestly, maybe partially above maintenance, by like 200 calories perhaps?
I do know for certain that whether you're cutting or bulking it shouldn't effect preformance when lifting, as long as you eat heartedly beforehand.

I'll link you the RTS video if you want it and if I can find it.

>>38543227
What is this program

Whats a good 12 week program focusing mainly on squats?

>>38543343
Mad cow 5x5

>>38543268
I need to say this is assuming you calculated your TDEE taking into account energy expended through lifting and cardio, otherwise your basic TDEE may out you in a deficit in reality.

>>38543314
I guess it matters a lot because of my fatigue. I have to be well rested and well fed every time otherwise I'm just shit.

That'll pass though. Yeah post the vid if you find it

God dammit. Why is it that when something good happens to me something terrible has to happen at the same time?

>>38543365
Candito 6 week is really good for squats. It is at a really high rpe though, so make sure you don't have much form breakdown before running it.

>>38543429
>for your health
Quality post

>>38543383
Sorry to hear that.. How is the rehab exacerbating your knee pain?

>>38543369
I've definitely been under eating. I'm sticking to relatively healthy but eating loads

>>38543429
I just took two weeks off two weeks ago and have just been fucking around with fairly easy workouts since I came back.
Idk I was benching and it felt a little tight on the eccentric, which moved to actual pain on the concentric. Stretched it out and did some rear delt stuff then came back after knocking the weight down about 20lbs and it felt even worse. Icing it now.

>>38543381
It's weird, I used to be the same way, good sessions were rare and I'd feel shit a LOT. I chalked it down to sleep but it actually turned out I had an iron deficiency because I only really ate fish and no other meat for many months. I did occasionally have other meats and I ate iron rich beans daily but the beans weren't enough.

Since eating chicken breast each / every other day I no longer have this issue at all. I feel good most sessions unless I'm ill or slept 1 hour or soemthing.

I know you're vegan or vegetarian or something along those lines, take that into consideration.

My issue lasted almost 8 months or something before I realised.

I'll look into slamming a green smoothie on a morning and get some supps. Good shout

>>38543458
Shit in the movement screen makes my knees feel wonky every time I do them and I've been screening like 7-8 people a day so far. The overhead squat and the in-line lunge particularly make them sore. Even when actual loaded squats usually were fine. But once my knees start getting this pain any kind of squatting starts hurting them.

>I do know for certain that whether you're cutting or bulking it shouldn't effect preformance when lifting, as long as you eat heartedly beforehand.


It may not affect that session, but it will invariably slow your recovery rate.

>>38543381
may have been iron deficiency amongst other deficiencies such as lack of b12, which is a real bitch.

>>38543462
Everything in moderation, doesn't matter if you under ear one day, over eat the next, no damage done.

Gl with eating more though, I'm in a very similar situation currently.

>>38543499
That's steroids lol

>>38543501
When I find the video from Mike T I'll link you and let you set your opinion based of what he says and not what I parrot.

>>38543481
Supplements aren't a fix for a poor diet, taking a range of supplements won't really do much, you really should only bother with supplements if it's something you're really deficient in like iron. Supplementing a variety of vitamins and menial and not very effective.

I'd sort your diet before your supplement staked personally.

>>38543498

Taking a bunch my dad recommended for a week and a half now. DHA, L-Tryptophan, Fish oil concentrate (EPA + DHA), Acetyl-L-Carnitine, and 5-HTP. Only one I've seen recommended here is the fish oil.

Whatever is cheap. Sorry they cause issues for you. I don't get acne, so you should talk to a dermatologist.

>>38543670
If you can get HMB-FA I will buy it from you for whatever price you want

>>38543703
Is the muscle tech product not any good?

>>38543701
It sucks, I wanna take them but I break out, as soon as I stop I'm acne free.
I heard it was the capsules that give you acne, and not the fish oil itself.

Don't know if I can see myself drinking fish oil...

>>38543714
You can only buy HMB, HMB-FA is not on the market. All the amazing results you see in the studies are from HMB-FA, not commercially available HMB.

>>38543733
It's only a tablespoon. Just gotta do it quick. Watch your vitamin A levels though.

>>38543652
it's funny cause for deadlifts it's usually the other way around where i'll gain deadlift strength as i lose bodyweight. which makes sense cause belly fat is just dead weight anyway

>>38543660
lol what? my gut isn't unreasonably large yet

>>38543675
fish oil seems to be the general consensus. also, i notice you've mentioned your dad in regards to lifting at least twice now. what does he do?

>>38543751
I might do it, maybe take it once every other day for the sake of not ODing accidentally

Because I've always loved animals and I don't like the idea of something suffering so much its whole life just for me to eat it. If I could just hunt game and I was a good shot then I'd rather just get my own meat. But I can't so I'm not going to. But yeah that's enough about that.

>>38543747
Is HMB not worth it instead? Seems like good reviews and considering its only $20CAD for 90 caps of it... Is it just placebo?

>>38543757
I know that feel. I pulled 408 in meet at 163.

Now after bulking to 181 or so I'm only at a max of around 440, maybe 450.

>>38543757
He's saying you have manlet arms.

>>38543770
You have to take 3 caps a day, so it's a months work for $20cad. I wish it was that cheap round here, it's like £30 for tablets.

Not a lot of evidence to support HMB being worthwhile, but a fair amount to support HMB-FA.
Don't waste your money IMO

>>38543757
He used to lift, stopped a few years ago due to work getting out of hand. Been getting him back into it. His PRs were 500/345/505 @6', 235. Now he's a literal skeleton, 6', 135. He's a doctor too, so I trust his opinion with a lot of things.

Guys, I've started doing 6 reps and 3 reps after spending a year doing only doing a max of 3x3 and i dont think i can hack the cardio. After the 3rd rep I'm out of breath and cant catch my breath.
What do? I don't want to resort to having to step on a treadmill...

>>38543770
for 58usd you can be on 125mg test and 200mg deca for 20 weeks, you most likely won't need an ai or any caber at that dose unless you are fat.

>>38543812
I'm not ready to be a /fraud/ yet. I'm only 21

>>38543812
What exactly constitutes"fat"?

Over 15% or over 20%?

>>38543807
Same desu. Happens to me every cycle.

I like to do """cardio""" by taking 65-70% for triples with one minute rest until I am dying. I think it helps.

>>38543769
It's a shame but if that's how you feel you need to understand some sacrifices to your quality of life will have to be made. You could always eat meat in moderation and feel moderately guilty lol.

But its your choice, find a work around that you can get behind, there's always another way out of a bad situation.

>>38543821

>>38543796
Actually, think his deadlift was 510, and everything was done beltless, wrapless, etc. Oh well, doesn't really matter all that much.

>>38543846
I can get eggs, plus they'll be really decent ones so that should keep me well. Plus I have my protein shakes and black beans.

>>38543873
5'11

To be fair when I pulled 408 at 163 I really weighed 170 and just water cut to 163 for the meet. Still feels nice to say I got 2.5x bw deadlift.

>>38543873
I wish he competed, lmao. They're gym maxes. He didn't squat to depth, so accounting for depth, he's probably good for 450ish.

Between my fucking asscheeks its an a or b question.

>>38543885
Maybe do a little research as to what you're deficient in. My guess is iron and B12. Try supplementing these 2 things for a while and see if your feels improve. If not consult your GP because (s)he's smart and I'm not.

>>38543920
yes but you should still have an ai and caber and nolva/letro on hand just incase. the initial cost is "high" but after that is it cheap

>tfw will never meet my perquisites to sit on my giant pile of happiness

>>38543981
Ain't that the truth, ain't that the damn truth.

>>38543930
Well I supplement b12 already and have fortified milks. Its just the iron I need to sort out. Just looked into the bioavailability of iron in spinach and apparently the oxalic acid that inhibits absorption is broken down when its cooked which means you get more iron from cooked spinach than raw!

>Rawfags btfo

>>38543919
thanks billy. pretty good read. i was thinking about it the other day, like am i really 'happy' lifting? cause it hurts like shit when you're doing 4x10 but if i didn't do it, i would be depressed and anxious too. i guess i just do it cause it feels right, not cause it feels 'good'

>Homosexual Alex is becoming the orbiter he fought so hard against

How come I don't need to gain weight to gain strength? I started strength training about 2 years ago and since then I've gained on my total from like <200kg to 485kg. I'm just below 6'0 tall and I've hovered around 155-160 this whole time. I don't feel the need to gain weight at all. Still progressing regularly.

>>38544383
Has the feeling worsened since lessening your SSRI dosage? Was it there during high SSRI intake?

Hm, perhaps I'm confused as to what you're really feeling, I don't understand if you're saying you feel fatigued, burned out or somewhat a lack of motivation feeling.

When you're truly off SSRIs see how it goes, only time will tell.

Only if you are bodorio which you aren't

How do you deal with powerlifting and depression? I've been om SSRIs for a while and has noticed some weightgain. Some days when I train the barbell doesnt provide the "fun" or "thrill", sometimes it just feels like pressure. Lifting is supposed to kill the void, right? Having nothing, being nothing - a shell. I've been to therapy and seen like 5 different psychologists and what bothers me the most is that the "answer" or "reasoning" just doesn't click.

Not to sound even more emo, but I guess the laws of physics hates us all equally. And thats a good thing I guess. There is no forgiving, no real shortcuts, only persistence.

But brawn only goes a certain way, at some point the "brains" are necessary to progress. How do you hold back when there is nothing left that has any "fun". Idk why im so emo today probably should kill myself right.

There's a clause in most states that says if you're within 4 years of the other person it's okay. So 16 and 20 is cool. Also I think Ohio's age of consent is 16.

So I'm running C6W and got 8 reps on W2 workout 2 for the squat amrap.

I then attempted 8 sets of back offs but was only able to get 6 because my heart felt like it was going to fucking explode.

Do I have terrible recovery speed or is this just fucking crazy hard?

What the fuck is up with these laws. Who the fuck is sexually matured at 16.

Worst age to make sexual decisions, there's such a huge mental gap between 16 and 17 let alone 16 and 20

>>38545569
its crazy fucking hard

just take a lil more time to get ur breath back

>>38545560

This is true. A 17 year old and a 14 year old can legally have sex in every state in the union.

Women are in their prime in their 20s, before that they're immature and annoying and pedophillic, after that they degrade quick.

>>38545631

Nah they go downhill when they hit 20

>>38545585
I just fucked off for the last two sets and went and did some other shit becuase I felt like if i attempted another set i'd pass out.

>>38545649
Canditos a fucking shit program don't run that garbage

>>38545648
No, 20-29 is the perfect age of a woman, they're matured, fully developed, of a mature mental age, fertile and responsible enough for children.

>>38545631
>>38545648
it's all a matter of when their genetics decide to cash in on maximum attraction. girls who are really hot at 16, will probably look average in their 20s.

girls who are stunning in their 20s were probably bland in their teens.


no one looks remarkably good past 30

>>38545662

The prime fertile age is literally 16 look it up goomba

>>38545665
16 year old girls are the worst thing ever. Not even conventionally attractive girls for that age are attractive to a grown adult male. They lack the body development, yes there are always a few outliners but the fast majority don't physically mature until their 20's

Just because some 16 year old has big tits, doesn't mean she's physically matured anyway.

>>38545680

>>38545660
I ran it before and did really well, then people fell off the C6W memetrain and I got nervous and spun my wheels for a while.

>>38545696
Texas method you fucking idiot

>>38545676
For the modern day woman, but that's due to the puberty occurring a lot earlier due to the modern humans exposure to hormones in every day products.

16 year olds have shitty under developed bodies, immature and malleable minds. They are so fucking annoying and look like shit.

Fertile age means nothing.

>>38545680
no doubt, but what i'm saying is that any given girl will not look her best past 30. jessica alba has always been hot, and she still is, but she was at peak attraction in her 20s

>>38545691
in terms of being ready for reproduction, i agree completely. i believe the average is like age 21 or something.

but what i'm saying is, for example selena gomez, she looked much more appealing when she was 18 than now at 24. chloe moretz looks like a cow in her 20s

>>38545711
Nah 16-18 year olds look the best you're objectively incorrect

I get it you're trying to convince yourself that there's still good things to come but you missed out on fucking the best prime pussy :(((

>>38545723
How they look is dependant on their life style though

>tfw naturally gravitated to this 31 yo that is reeducating herself during party here at uni

She was easily the THICCest there Tbh lads, looked kinda like titcow from Mad Men

>>38545724
There's no difference in how the vagina feels, want it tighter then have her cross her legs and go in from underneath.

Her body at 20+ is far more matured and ideal to most men's natural desires

>>38545727
To a degree yes but genetic factors in all females will determine 90% of them will look objectively more attractive before the age of 20

For example they have thinner facial skin than men that's why men age much better

>>38545742
did you call her mummy and ask for a glass of milky?

PLG, I'm sad.

I got myself fucked up six weeks out from a meet. I went to a concert, got drunk, moshed. Anyway, at some point I got slammed down on a concrete ridge and fucked up my tailbone and fucked up my heel.

The meet is in two weeks now and I'm just now able to lift again, though my heel still isn't super steady.

What do I do? Say fuck it, show up, and squat like 50%?

>>38545743
>ideal to most men


No ideal to you and only you

There's many polls and studies conducted about this and men from age 18-40 polled in what age they found most attractive and not a single age cohort broke 23 while the vast majority was 18-21

>>38545748
Skin health isn't as big as a factor in sexual attraction ass body structure is. Women's hips explode in their 20s, they develop large full breasts, heart shaped asses.

A 16 year old has a wash board chest and flapjack ass.
Disgusting.

>>38545754
no but maybe I should have

>>38545768
No this is objectively untrue lol they just start to get ugly and fat

Compare the old pictures of Claire abott to when she was underage to now, notice something? This is the same with most girls

>>38545763
>majority was 18-21
So more to the age range I'm suggesting? Thanks for proving my point. I may have had a larger bracket, however it is still closer to 20's, which is what I was suggesting, I just went as far as 29.

>>38545743
>natural desires
we naturally gravitate towards reproductive health, but if a 18 year old girl shows more fertile qualities than a 24 year old, we'll always pick the 18. things like wide hips, smooth skin, fresh scent, full red lips, big breasts etc. some girls have all of these at 16, so contrary to what this guy is saying >>38545691 , we'd still smash given the chance

They said 21 because it's a familiar number, it's the age you're allowed to a lot of things legal, such as drink. It's a recognisable number and one more likely to pick.

The results still show its farther to the 20s than 16s

>>38545808
All I have to do is look at their Facebook posts over the past 5 years and go back and watch as they degrade into unmatched sacks of jello

All girls I know looks a lot better now than they did at 16.

no doubt. but these things only matter in the modern world where we base all our decisions on rational thought. of course a responsible, faithful girl who loves kids is setting herself up to be a better mom than a slut, but you don't 'see' that at first glance. these things happen afterwards. if you had to choose a wife based on looks alone, you'd probably end up with a 20 year old

It's all maintenance. I know girls who have kept up with their looks and girls who smoke, drink and eat shit.

They are worlds apart. Women just react really badly to an unhealthy lifestyle and constant fucking sunbeds and chemical filled skin routines which cause the problems that they're trying to hide.

>>38545874
This. How they look in their 20s is entirely life style.
At 16 they look trash because they're not developed physically.

>>38545868

many girls can't handle the physical stress of carrying big tits, and the emotional insecurity from feeling like a sex-doll to everyone

>>38545908
18 is such an arbitrary number, you just chose it because she it's a significant number in the law.

But in reality, what significant changes occur in the 2 year period from 18 to 20 PHYSICALLY for a woman? Nothing. Mentally they wise the fuck up however. Which is 60% of what you should consider, at least, when choosing a partner.

Yeah I agree with 18, when I was saying 16 I didn't mean that as best but more of a range 16-20 before a slow downfall

I dated an eighteen year old in university, shell be about 21 now and she looks worse than she did then. Her tits and ass aren't as good and her face looks a little worse, but then she did yo yo diet in that time.

>>38545908
Don't fall for this
>>38545921

It's Sean circulating rares

Don't feed him rares

>>38545929
No one here is arguing about their mentality

>>38545946
Fine, then going back to looks, there is no significant change for most women from 18-20, they look more matured but only partially.

This guy
>>38545939
Is an outliner

>>38545942
No one cares about rare Esmeralda's since they're a dime a dozen and all shit

>>38543812
lol wtf

>>38545954
Yeah I'm not convinced, why would you beg her for a rare then?

I'm not letting your folder increase buddy

>>38545954
well she is a pre madonna

>>38545973
Great spelling lol?

>>38545971
Im not begging you stupid fick, esmeralda is objectivley ugly at the age of 25, an 18 year old pic would prove my point though im imagining she was completely schizo back then with purple and green spiked hair

One example proves nothing.

And that to me sounds like begging for fares in disguise, you're it covering up I can tell.

>>38543807
i hit 30 minutes on the treadmill 3 times a week, not on lifting days and i never have issues just make sure youre in the 60%+ range and i can do 5x25 squats at 215 easy

>>38545953

Perhaps, I'd say her hot friends were hotter back then than they are now though.

>>38546006
No you're the beta orbiter, not me, remember?

>one example

its literally every example

look at claire abott for example number 9001

literally the only girl from my high school who looks better now was this nerdy fucking awkward lanklet shit who turned to some supermodel lol

>>38545927
They do it to each other.

I had long sleek natural light brown hair. Bitches were always asking me when I was going to cut it. Then I did. My dad tried to tell me not to but I didnt listen.

With make up, I only started because I didn't want to be bullied anymore. Plus my mum never paid much attention so I never really knew how to cope with spots etc, I just bought make up instead.

It's all bullshit mate. I spend more money on decent moisturisers and that now.

closing your eyes and clapping your hands over your ears going LALALALAL NO NO NO IM RIGHT

doesnt make you right

kill yourself beta orbiter

>>38546068
Yup. All just peer pressure and low self esteem, getting back to that now. I'm 26.

>>38546034
Should have done what I did, start lifting at 16, wear loose fitting clothing to hide all the muscle, skip prom and show up to A-Levels with 17" arms and 30" quads and continue to wear loose fitting clothing and cover yourself up

>>38546034
>>38546108

you gonna let your beta orbiter boss you around and tell you that you cant post a pic of when you were 18?

>>38546112
Yes that would have stopped the bullies.

>They would try and then I would kung fu kick them out of the window

>>38546104
I'm right you're wrong kill yourself, beta orbiter.
Your beta prescience is ionising my skin and giving me cancer.

>>38546108
Are you really going to spoon feed your beta orbiter and give him more pictures to obsess over?

He has folders of every girl who comes here. FOLDERS.

how fucking beta

>>38546144
Now that I know im arguing with the beta orbiter who isnt even 18 yet I have nothing else to say to you since its a well established fact everyone agrees with except for you, who has mental problems such as falling in love with a 26 year old ugly schizo on 4chan

>>38546164
Even your projection is ionising

Thanks for the cancer

>>38546177
