/plg/ Powerlifting General

>>39232966
the chances of a 6'10 black dude having long limbs relative to his torso is super high

Yes, it's possible he could be a freak with the legs of a 5'10 man and a torso a foot longer than the average person. I'm 6'4 and my squat leverages aren't that bad (32 inch inseam)

But it's completely reasonable to think he has terrible squat leverages with what he described

>>39233051
do you even lift anymore? serious question

Couldn't a 6'10" guy theoretically be a really good powerlifter? Even though he may have shit leverages he would still be able to pack on insane amounts of muscle, and could be a relatively lean SHW

R.I.P
CHEMOLIFTAN

- respect

>>39233106
Yes, he could be, but that's assuming his other qualities overpower the fact that he has worse leverages.
High hip flexion in the squat, deadlift is deficit to him, large range of motion for the bench press, because grip width limit is independent of weight class.

>>39233134
>deadlift is deficit to him
implying deadlifts are not a deficit to me at 5 '6 with these little fucking t rex arms

how fucking short are your arms if deadlifts are deficit to you at 5'6"?

I feel like a fucking idiot for having to ask this but how do you pay for a meet when there's no option to pay online? Are you just supposed to put cash with your entry form when you mail it or what?

ive seen people do deficits with a more upright back angle than my normal dead Tbh

>>39233480
hips way lower mang
stretch ur hamstrings too

>>39233480
Miring arms and chest tbqh, how big are your arms?
Your set up is a little bad, lots of rounding, not a lot of hinging.

Try opening your stance. I had the same issue until I opened up my stance to the edge of the smooth part of the bar.

Also hold it at the top please

>>39233480
try starting with your hips a little higher, and keep your back straight.

>>39233308
How about you be a man, have a shot of vodka and take your ass over there with a crate of beer

>>39233497

>>39233480
You also need to bring your shoulders down.

Practice trying to touch your toes without bending your back. Sit back.

WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW ABOUT ANYTHING? WTF PLG

>>39233545
>>39233530
No offense but he just needs to widen his stance.
My deadlift was the same as his until I just widened my stance.

No need for stretching or starting with his higher or lower.

>>39233055
6'4" and 38 inseam

please send help squatting is misery

>>39233564
No, he doesn't "need to widen his stance".
Maybe that'll help him, maybe not.
Just because it worked for you, doesn't mean his body is the same.
(fyi, I prefer a wider stance too, but that doesn't mean everyone has to)

I told him to *try* starting with his hips higher, which *can* help.

He should keep his back straight though.

>>39233581
No man, I'm serious, its just a fault of too narrow a stance.
Its not a preference its the cause of his fault.

I'm not saying sumo, I'm saying max out his conventional stance btw

>>39233564
>No need for stretching

He clearly lacks flexibility to keep a neutral spine. Changing his stance could easily help but if he's not hinging correctly it won't fix the problem in the long term.

Hello /plg/

How much do you front squat?
How much do you bench?

likely an issue since i do next to no stretching but not sure how much that would actually help me dl anyway, i should do it tho i know

>>39233521
>how big are your arms?
i dont know, maybe 14 inches?? lol
>not a lot of hinging
yeah i just cant get it, this was me trying to fix it, dont think it was all that successful Tbh

i havent tried widening out much yet, ill have to put a bit of time in that direction i guess

>>39233530
i thought they were pretty high as it was

>>39233545
>You also need to bring your shoulders down.
do you mean getting lats tight? maybe bad in that webm but i am attempting to do this

>>39233594
No. You don't need to be so hyper mobile to lift.

You JUST NEED TO LIFT

>>39233610
I have bigger arms but yours looks bigger?
Perhaps I should wear a chain.

I'm in the exact same position as you lad and take my word its just narrow stance width. Nothing to do with mobility.


nobody can deadlift that narrow without back rounding.

>>39233590
People have different hip structures.
It is most definitely dependent on the person, which makes it a preference, not an absolute fault.

>>39233594
He doesn't "clearly lack flexibility".
Infact, this video shows that his hamstrings are more than flexible enough for him to keep a straight back.
His hamstrings are less stretched in his starting position than when the bar crosses his knees.
It's more likely he rounds his back because he just isn't strong enough to break the weight off the ground without rounding.

Please stop giving advice about things you don't know shit about.

>>39233610
People with relatively longer femurs and shorter torso will have to use a higher hip position.
Really, lower the weight a bit, and try starting with your hips a bit higher.
Don't let them shoot up though, extend your knees and hips at roughly the same rate.
Your back angle should remain relatively constant from the floor until you pass your knees.

>>39233612
I don't mean he should fold like a pretzel but even practising sitting back with straight legs and back (hip hinging) will help identify where his stance should be and how it feels for his hamstrings to engage. So yeah, he can do that while he sets up for lifts by all means. I just like to work on it outside of the gym.

>>39233654
DUDE. LOOK AT HIS STANCE
A DEADLIFT IS A JUMPING STANCE

HE HAS HIS FEET INCHES APART
ARE YOU BRAIN DEAD?

>>39233663
HIS FEET ARE CLOSE TOGETHER
ARE
YOU
BLIND

JUST LOOK

NOBODY CAN DEADLIFT WITHOUT ROUNDING WITH SUCH A CLOSE STANCE

>>39233610
>>39233654
oh, also, here's an example of someone strong with relatively long femurs and a short torso:
https://youtu.be/_SdXgymSrn4?t=1m39s
pay close attention to his positioning when he actually breaks the weight off the floor.

You're a dumb retard who doesn't know how to lift

Post your deadlift so I can laugh

>>39233654
The only reason why I said it is because I thought it was the same issue that I had which I fixed. I had to get my hips higher and to adjust to that I figured out the right stance through practicing my hinging.

Is all.

>>39233744
If you had posted that in the first place, that would've been fine.

Instead of misinforming, you could say "It seems to me like you lack flexibility to keep a straight back. I also think that learning how to do a proper hip hinge will help you out most."
And you can even mention what issue you personally encountered, and how you resolved it.

>>39233714
>3400kcals/day
>eating a lot
pick one twink

>>39233714
I'm eating 3500-4000 a day and making slower bench gains than you :(

I'm still making gains though. I'm that guy who started his similar bench program at an RPE that was too high

>>39233761
Okey, I'll think through things more before I post in future. I know what I want to say.

If he practices his hinging it'll carry over to his squat as well.

I hate long femur short torso life. Thankfully have the arms of a gibbon to compensate.

>Which is terrible for bench

>>39233625
>I have bigger arms but yours looks bigger?
i havent actually measured them but they havent really grown in a long while
one of the few short armed manlet bonuses, theres not many of them
>Perhaps I should wear a chain.
would recommend, helps everytime

>>39233654
>People with relatively longer femurs and shorter torso will have to use a higher hip position.
once again not measured but i always thought i had short femurs Tbh

> lower the weight a bit
easier said than done when youve got meets planned Tbh, i lowered it to 82% singles in that 2nd one when i was trying to fix it

ill try to mess about with some of the ideas soon and maybe post if things change

also no need to fight lads ffs

Thanks for this nice response.

>>39233808
Maybe you don't have long femurs, and I misjudged it from the video.
A view in real life is often much better.
Anyway, my point was that some people do need to start with their hips higher, and that you should play around with your hip height until you find a good starting position.

One thing I forgot to mention is that you could also play with your shoulder positioning.
Often people put their shoulders too far back (and subconsequently their hips too far down), because they misinterpret the "body behind the bar" cue.

I don't know how long it would take for you to improve your technique and work your way back up.
In my gym, I helped a guy get his deadlift from 140kg to 210kg in a week or so, but sometimes it takes way longer to improve technique and get stronger with it.

>>39233884

>>39233903
Thats what he said

>>39233808
You don't really need to lower the weight in my opinion, but it depends on what changing your form does to your strength. Just gradually work your way up to your working weight on the day.

Practice sitting back and folding forwards until you feel your hamstrings then bend your knees and reach down from there. If you can't reach the bar from there without rounding then you need to widen your stance. A good way to avoid lower back rounding when doing this is to engage hip torque as you would for a squat.

So yeah, that's what I should have said.

No, I meant whether the shoulders are over the bar or infront of it.

I'll probably join your ranks again soon enough, knowing my luck. I'm running C6W for my lower programming, so it's probably gonna happen with my squat form being less than ideal.

I've been having discomfort on the lower medial edge of my scapula I notice after I squat or bench

Does anybody have any theories about what it could be? I'll give whatever other relevant info if needed

I've been rolling it with a lacrosse ball occasionally and it seems like it might help a little but I'm not sure

Current theory is that my pec minor might be tight and is causing my scapula to tilt forward off my rib cage, so I'm going to try to stretch that and see if it helps

Any thoughts would be appreciated

4x6 is doable but not 1x8?
Try
Harder
or rest up real well

>>39235016
i made it through the first 2 weeks which i didnt even like
was looking forward to the 3 week which was more towards what i prefered, strained quad fairly badly on the first day

.. I DONT GOT A BELLY BUTTON

I NEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING

>>39235052
Getting enough sleep is gonna be an issue since my professors have been slamming me with work that past couple weeks

>>39235056
Wew, hopefully that doesn't happen to me

>>39235016
wait you're on the exact same programming as me, C6W lower + Greg 3x int med bench
I'm on wk 2 of C6W tho, did snatch grip deads for the first time, they were fun and hard

also if you're still having libido problems try L-arginine, I started taking it a couple weeks ago and it's made me a bit hornier

>>39235095
when did u do day 1 and when r u doing day 2
>>39235104
>>39235095

>>39235104
I'll give it a look-see.

Did day 1 on Tuesday, doing day 2 on Saturday. And I guess this is the new meme.

>>39235859
OMG frog powerlifting the talented freak
Good to see you're still lifting
You're gonna be a hell of a lifter one day. You already are really, that squat is insane

>>39235875
didn't watch the video but the rhino rants are usually like a 7/10 for me
simple shit made long and pretending like its smart 75% of the time

What are your guys' favorite exercises for strengthening your back enough so that it doesn't round on conventional deadlifts? I'm thinking about switching back at some point. I feel like my hamstrings are my strongest muscle and sumo doesn't use them as much.

Bench 5x5 @ 80% was pretty easy today. Last set was around RPE 7ish.

>>39235984
Strengthening the lats and improving cues helped me the most.

How to get motivated and stay motivated lads? Thinking of starting again on sunday.

Again

>>39236898
Because 28 is a three-day.

I'd also like to start a fresh 2 day deadlift cycle on sunday

>>39236840
How long have you been lifting?

>>39236925
Okay.

You should start lifting Sunday. If you can't find the motivation within yourself then you're never gonna make it. I don't see why you can't lift tomorrow and do light stuff to prepare yourself for Sunday. You'll be rusty when you get back to it.

>>39236926
2 years now

>>39236940
Nice

>>39236936
Yes but how to get motivated?

Been lifting around 2 years and these past two weeks I've just not felt it at all, don't feel it today either Tbh

>>39236959
just get in the mind set of "just do it" ive been in the same mood since i hurt my knee

>>39236959
Think about why you like lifting, why started in the first place

For me it's because the only time I don't feel suicidal is when I exercise, and lifting is the most enjoyable type of exercise. Plus I like hitting PRs

>>39236993
damn this is incredibly accurate to my outlook

>>39236998
Then go lift so you don't feel suicidal and start to hit PRs again

>>39237006
im a different guy
he should go lift

>>39237012
Oh

Sorry anon, I hope you become less depressed

>>39237020
ok maybe not incredibly accurate but wow lifting is a great distraction for being sad
workout M-F and drink saturday night and you rarely have to face your problems

>>39237034
I guess so

But you still have problems that need to be dealt with :/

>>39237084
What're your problems

>>39236981
I did get injured before this, it really took the wind out of me as you say. Maybe I just have to force it like you suggest.
>>39236993
Well, I wanted to be strong. I have achieved that in some ways as I am much, much stronger than most people, but at the same time I've had to realize that I will never be as strong as I'd like, I could likely never win Worlds or the European championships.

>>39237143
Yeah but you could still go to worlds or Europeans. How do you know you won't win? You said you've been training for two years. People who are winning those sorts of competitions have been training for 7+ years. Some for over a decade

>>39237170
knowing i could get WR and win worlds makes me more depressed from getting injured

>>39237170
I'm too far behind and I'm not a talented lifter. I could possibly go to European (though as of now I don't even qualify for nationals in Norway) but I'd never be able to win or likely even place top 5.

>>39237194
Kek at that image

Today I talked to Alex Kang and he had something to say about your injury thing but you didn't wanna know what he told me even though he went to IPF equipped worlds twice so I guess I can't offer you insight on that

>>39237206
Aw that's unfortunate

Well, maybe you're wrong. Keep trying and you will make it to Europeans and maybe even be able to compete in the IPF eventually

>>39237206
>I don't even qualify for nats in Norway

What? I qualify for nats in Australia even though the biggest component of my total sucks

>>39237257
Qualifying total for Open Unequipped in the 120kg weight class is 600kg, my total is only 520kg.

>>39237220
lol then tell me if you still want

>>39237269
Are you fat? Why not try cutting and competing at a lower weight class

>>39237282
No, not very. I'm around 110kg at 192cm and already kinda twinkish.

>>39237276
He has been lifting for 12 years and still competes and lifts heavy. Saw him deadlifting 515 for a bunch of singles today. Anyway I asked him if he ever got injured and he said yes, many times

Moral of the story: you can set international records even with injuries

>>39237282
>>39237293
Besides, it's 577,5kg to qualify then, no way I'm hitting that while cutting.

>>39237293
Try bulking to SHW. A lot of tall guys seem to have trouble making progress and it turns out that they're just in too low of a weight class. Really if you're 6' or taller there's no reason to not be a SHW (looking at you lith)

>>39237314
I'm trying to better fill out 120kg class, and honestly, it's hard work to eat this much, not to mention expensive.

Then eat cheaper food and try harder

>>39237333
I dunno what to tell you. See a doctor maybe? You'll get through it, don't worry

>>39237343
i have and did physical therapy this month still comes back i feel like im cucked for life honestly

>>39237360
I have hip pain that flares up once in a while, I still lift. Dunno man, just keep treating it, fix knee cave, slow descent a bit. You'll be all good. Knee pain may hurt but it doesn't stop you from lifting

You'll get it buddy don't worry. Just keep lifting and you'll get stronger regardless of bodyweigjt

>>39237391
kek, I am trying though, don't worry about that.

>>39237390
Well, don't do what he did and force yourself to roid and surgery to heal

Just start slow and work your way back up, fix form, keep going to PT

>>39237397
You said you haven't gone to the gym in two weeks though that's not really trying

>>39237398
ive been thinking about getting hgh to heal it desu

>>39237406
good point

>>39237415
I think the IPF rules say that if you use banned substances you can't compete for 3 years

However, banned substances, such as hgh, permanently increase your maximum strength potential. Especially if you're 17.

Take that as you will

>>39237422
Then go today

>>39237431
>ou use banned substances you can't compete for 3 years
i have no intentions of competing until late mid to late jrs

>>39237445
Jen Thompson is the best female bencher and most likely used roids in the past

>>39237459
so youd say just roiding hard now is the best time if i wanted to compete in jrs later?

>>39237472
Check the rules to make sure, I might be wrong

Also roids can fuck you up for life

But, hey

>>39237438
I'm envisioning sunday as a "fresh start" of sorts.

WE ALL

HOPE YOU CHOKE

Buildup and when you first hear it you think there might be a riff and happier sounding shit

But then it goes back to sad shit and you're let down (and hanging around)
