>he brags about his lifting at all

Do you brag about the amount of women you fucked, relative to how attractive to you are on a scale from 1 to 10?
You probably don't, you would just say how many women you fucked and then people take a look at you, and they're either surprised or not.
It's the same with weightlifting. You don't say "I can bench 150% of my body weight", you would say "I can bench 105kg and I'm 70kg".

I'm 145 lbs and bench 225
My friend is 160 and benches 315
I think 315 is just more impressive despite the same ratio.

People should do that desu. But theres no objective way of measuring your attractiveness. And it is generally odd to talk about your own attractiveness

Are you saying martial arts and powerlifting shouldnt have weight classes? Its about fairness

>>38612267
Weight classes are the dumbest things IMO

>fairness

yeah, that's why the NBA has height classes, because we wouldn't want it to be too unfair! The only reason powerlifters can afford to care about "fairness" is that nobody else gives a shit about their """"sport"""".

>>38612153
so OP would be bragging about being a 0/10 virgin

weight classes are essential, especially in martial arts and powerlifting. in the days of bare knuckle boxing when there were no weight rules you would have lightweights going up against heavyweights and getting killed. and in weightlifting, they don't go by weight lifted as a % of bodyweight, they go by total weight lifted so a heavier person will always lift more

nba is a team sport you retard. that evens the playing field

>>38612281
how is a weight class dumb? it makes perfect sense, especially in weightlifting.

This is why the Wilks score is used, OP. It compares strength taking various factors into account.
