/PLG/ Powerlifting Gener

Do I NEED to do power cleans or can i just do high pulls?

How do you guys prevent anal tulips?

I'm moving up to big boy numbers, and I'm having serious issues when I hit the bottom of my high bar squat. Will low bar fix this?

Hahaha you are all fat

>>39874819
High pulls are better

>>39874825
Prevent what??

>>39874831
why are high pulls better white brother?

Is there any proof this was pulled from the floor or did he take it out of a rack and walk it back?

desu, that looked really good but what do I know... we probably squat the same weight for 5s.

technically you're going deeper than required, especially with Low Bar ... sooo idk, maybe cut the depth by an inch or 2 and see your squat skyrocket

>>39874895
Drop your working weights and get that weight back. A good amount of it was water/glycogen, but you've probably lost at least a little muscle and you won't be as fresh with the lifts.

>>39874967
>size and strength are not strongly correlated

Get a load of this guy

I wish owg were this active and had a community this good (bad)

>>39875003

gee it's almost like you can train for strength and never do hypertrophy work and get strong and be DYEL as fuck

if only there was a general full of strong people that look DYEL to prove my point

File: eq-bench-190kg.webm (872KB, 800x450px) Image search: [Google]

Did 190kg really comfortably tonight. Probably the best 190 I've done this training cycle (so, ever)

Also discovered wrist wraps on the bench aren't necessary. I mean, this hurt but 180 was fine.

>>39875018
I dont look dyel and im strong i think

>>39875020
Thumb on ring hurts for me, but my ring finger on the rings does not.

So I chose to have an almost max grip but not quite instead.

>>39875018
this guy is actually not wrong

>>39874984
I've done a small workout earlier @ around 60-70% weight...3x5 squats, 4x5 bench and some easy back work. Still can't believe that I lost that much weight, it hurts.

Reminder that this is perfect bench technique (excluding the pinky memeing) and that everyone who doesn't bench like this isn't going to bench as much as they can

>>39874883
Control the bottom of your squat better. You're getting halfway there, then just dropping in, so you can take advantage of stretch reflex better. Nothing wrong with stretch reflex, but slow it down slightly and tighten up your form.

>>39875018
It's almost like you just finished SS. You will never see someone with a respectable bench and dyel upper body. Yes there are three or four of them who exist, but you'll never meet one.

>>39875053
I know you will say he is constantly applying pressure to the ground, but this isn't conventional leg drive, right?
How is it better?

>>39875038

regardless of how not dyel you are if you spent the years you've been training in doubles, tripes, sets of 5, etc, training for hypertrophy and adding in isolation for lats and traps and forearm/bicep/tricep you would look a LOT bigger and be a LOT weaker.

This is total common sense and why size=strength is a meme/10

Powerlifting is a joke.
how about you start benching like clarence instead u pussy

>>39875018
but the opposite isnt true
no one that is out of looking dyel has 'intermediate' strength

>>39875053
I'm pretty sure the finger thing is actually 100% necessary.

>>39875044
Sucks duder. Maybe take like two weeks to hit some 5x5's and see where you're at after that. Hopefully with some good food and sleep you'll be most of the way back to where you were.

>>39875071
You get big then gain strength or do both at the same time my legs are a good 11inchs bigger then when i started and im pretty twinky

It isn't, no. Most people don't know what leg drive is and the idea that hip shift can move the bar is hilarious desu

>>39875087
It's actually really impressive how stable he is.
Clarence is not a powerlifter.

>>39875070
Keeps you way tighter and more stable. I like this kind of leg drive way more

What if you hit a shitload of doubles then two quick bodybuilding exercises like a normal person? Also, the big guy would be able to get his numbers up pretty quickly once he wanted to.

>>39875135

Because you're gonna overtrain and fuck your shit up by doing too much volume (doesn't take much to be overtraining if you're do hypertrophy work after a 'shitload of doubles' OR not be able to do enough hypertrophy work to get /juicy/

>got a free ($0) deep tissue massage at lunch
>therapist said my entire right side is much tighter than the left

Explains some shit

>>39875125
He's probably both bigger and leaner than you are and I'm positive he's got a better bench than you.

squat. bench. deadlift.OHP. Long ago, the four lifts lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when trappy chan attacked. Only the blueshu, master of all three lifts, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he got three reds. A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new blushu, a powerlifter named Jacob dindle. And although his powerlifting skills are shit, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe BLUESHOES can save /plg/.

>>39875164
>you're gonna overtrain
Oh so you really did just finish SS. That's cool, welcome to /plg/.

I mean he's hardly dyel there but that's two years of noob gains and bodybuilding

and he trained for what a decade?

sure if you train powerlfiting for a decade you won't be dyel, but you won't be nearly as big as if you trained for hypertrophy for a decade

common, common sense

also the only reason he doesn't look dyel is because of low bf %. how do you not know this? everyone looks good with 8% bf. I looked pretty big after one year of training at 8-9% despite being a fucking reed

Most people "training for hypertrophy" for a decade will hit a wall because they have no progression structure to their training.

it's such a mediocre weight it's embarrassing it took him so long to finally do it

>>39875174

lamo he's smaller and fatter than me before I started using gear

>>39875242

typically first two years massive size gains are achieved,

you would know this isley if you didn't fucking waste time on a powerlifting routine making no size gains

>>39875266
I started with a split when I was 16 you idiot. I didn't even know what powerlifting was for years.

ahh well that does change things and gear will let you get bigger while still being weak if you decide you dont want to get strong
not the same for natties
back to fraud lad

>>39875266
>trys to make points about strength=/=size to nattys
>uses gear

>>39875288

maybe that's why you looked better at 18 than you do now idiot?

or maybe it's because you can't stop eating mcdondalds, or some combination

>>39875301

even natties can make size gains while being weak. volume is key. hypertrophy is key.

It all depends on your goals. If you want to be big, train for hypertrophy. If you want to be strong, train for strength.

This is basic fucking shit idk why I'm getting argued with

Candito is fucking living proof, there are guys pushing 1/2/3/4 that look like that because they just train with a fucking 2 pl8 bench in sets of 5 and 8-12 rep range never getting strong but looking good

>>39875292
OK so, I haven't been able to be on the site too much (besides /tv/) because I had a lot of things to deal wih in like the past 3 months, and now it turns out trappy is back? What the hell happened? And I mean, what was the original drama, and how was it fixed that she decides to come back?

>>39875292
I didn't make gains on it, my fucking squat plummeted to like 550 lbs, bench to like 365 and dealdift was like 635 on a good day

Which is fine... you train for strength and you are strong.

You hit your goals bruh.

If you want to look big, you know what to do. Lower weight. Increase volume. Way more sets. 8-12 rep range.

This isn't rocket science.

Okay, not IQ

Reasoning wasn't tested

Can someone direct me towards a program that's appropriate for a lifter who has been training for just over 2 years, whose deadlift and OHP are both advanced for his bodyweight while his bench and squat are still intermediate?

This is according to the exrx strength tables

Do you think it was due to the heavy maxes you used, or just the volume was too much for you anyways?

Btw sheiko has programs available for 120kg+ lifters now, he calls them small load (over 80 is medium load, under 80 is high load). Have you seen them?

But after this prog im planning on hitting more then 500

hey everyone. I have a friend that got a 190kilo squat in just one year of training.

I dont know how to feel about this. I been on SS for 5 months i only have 82.5 kilo on my squat. I think me failing to eat is the prime issue. But holy fuck, 190kilo squat in just one year of training. That is amazing isn't it?

>>39875921
On squat not wilks (for anyone who would mis interpret that)

>>39875921
I'm gonna cut a few more kilos and start focusing on deadlifting more once I get to a 440/200kg squat... Good luck man, you'll be setting records in no time

If you are only squatting 82.5kg in 5 months, you didn't do SS.

This. He has taken sovereignty over an area that he has no specialty in. He's great in QTDDTOT and routine general, but he's laughable here.

Shills sheiko, with no critical thinking.

How do you guys feel about lats in the bench?

we are talking about kilo's here. You serious? How much you eating?

>>39875534
I can literally see her pussy. yumm

>>39875963
My program is simple, 2-4 days a week squat 3-5 days bench, deadlift whenever i have energy for it

Work up to max single, only attempt it if I'm more than 50% sure I'll make the rep (I know how to fail reps safely)

Then do a shitton of triples, and after that sets of 6-10, then do accessories (like closegrip or highbar)

>>39875947
didnt i convince you to gain weight?

>>39875987
I gained weight but I also got to like 20% bodyfat and I'm not gonna be competitive at that weight.

you are that flea lad right?

Why not do a dedicated pl prog youre getting pretty strong at you bw

>>39876011
I am not the flea lad you must be mistaken

>>39876013
I tried candito and took my squat for a shaky 365 to a solid 385 but I decided that I could make faster gains by doing more volume/intensity

Once i stall with singles I'll go to triples and then back to singles until I finally stall then I'll do sheiko or something. But atm I'm adding like 5lbs or so per week to my squat which is solid, and 5lbs every other week to my bench

>do you think it was the high maxes or the volume

yes

push-ups vs dips

and why?

>>39876298
well, I started lifting because I wanted to be strong like JoJo and that guy from fullmetal alchemist, but a lot of people come to /fit/ to get thin, not strong, and this generals are about getting strong

I need a program that has moderate volume (no sheiko), moderate intensity (no AMRAPs every session/week) focuses on sq/bp/dl/ohp, preferably for intermediate lifters.

>>39876849
I would do something like

Mon
5x5 comp lifts

Wed
6x3 paused lift/variant

Fri
4x5 overload variant

Or alternatively, split up the modalities so you're doing, for example

Comp squat
Closegrip bench
Block pulls

Paused squat
Comp bench
SLDL

For example. Go nuts dude.

Plg used to make me feel like i had friends

But now I feel really alone

So question, don't want to interrupt the thread, but is it worth it for a woman to get into powerlifting or is the strength difference so big that it's not worth it? Say, if someone two months into training can barely OHP more than the bar and doesn't want to do steroids, is it even worth it?

>>39877067
i have a mate whos only trained for a year and a half and is already competing nationals

granted, she's a fucking bitch but PL is a joke for females who have a decent amount of willpower and a good program

>>39877067
>is it worth it for a woman to get into powerlifting or is the strength difference so big that it's not worth it?
kek you compete against other women lol

>OHP
not part of competition, irrelevant

> two months
lift for a bit longer there is no rush

Used to start with sumo DL with barbell firmly against shins. Change it up so there's a little space between bar and shins. Felt a lot smoother and the countermovement didn't affact the bar.
How are you sumo pullers setting up? Shins touching bar from the start or does it scrape as you pull it from the ground?

>>39877067
your competing against other females so what does it matter.

If you like lifting and don't mind putting effort into it, yes.

>>39876532

It seems fine. I only know metric so I can't properly judge the weight, but it seems fine.

Maybe move the OHP to another day.

okay, great. One of my friends from my running club's husband is a powerlifter and owns this gym and got me going there, and everyone lifts so heavy but I'm so weak especially in that lift, and I've been finding it really discouraging that even though I'm eating more that one's just not going up

>Maybe move the OHP to another day.

Why?

I squat and deadlift in the same day.

Why would benching and pressing be inappropriate? They recover quick.

Maybe this is why your trainees have weak bench presses?

>>39877313
Oh they are, I'm almost deadlifting and squatting 200 already, which is still way too little, my goal eventually is 500 but I doubt that will ever happen since that's apparently really high for women.
It's just my stupid upper body. Thanks for the advice! I'll just keep putting extra effort into upper body until it gets better!

Roiding will not help your joints. Be careful lad, do your research, and remember not to compete in a tested fed :)

>>39877665
>I'm going to start pinning test here and I'm hoping it will help my joints heal and recover so they don't hurt all the fucking time.

steroids will do the opposite for that for a multitude of reason,

test would help with muscle recovery not joint recovery, thats why when starting out on steroids people sometimes snap their shit up cause they increase weights too fast cause their muscles can handle the load but their joints and CNS not equipped yet

Just a heads up, the smaller, more specialized jobs aren't always looking for people so if you're married to one of those you could end up waiting a while. 68W you could get without waiting too long, but then again the party's over so who wants to be in a line unit?

I would continue to look into Navy or Air Force options. I probably would have done Navy if I enlisted during peacetime. Probably should have done AF. Oh well.

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – PORT OF CALL
Relax as you stroll down the long beaches of Rio de Janeiro, one of Brazil’s most attractive and popular cities. All of life centers on the shore in Rio, which is home to the legendary Copacabana and Ipanema beaches.

Rio is a major port, a tourism hotspot and one of the most tranquil, yet fashionable, cities in the world. While the beaches of Rio beckon, the hills and mountains surrounding the city offer spectacular views too. And a springtime highlight is the Carnival, a massive, Mardi Gras-like celebration.

You'd probably be in a line platoon but you're much closer to a paramedic than an infantryman. If you want to get a medical degree, doing 68__ and taking all the background classes you can might not be a bad route. Only downside is depending on your unit, you could end up with a lot of field time, which doesn't lend itself to academic success.

Why do you feel trapped? School? Work?

>>39878462
I don't actually know. I guess school, yeah.
I sorta feel like I've hit a dead end.

Tbh the fact you made me question it has quickly changed my mood. Cause I don't actually know. Then it got me thinking about school, and it isn't all that bad, and I can leave anytime I want really, but I've only got a year left anyway.
Then I started thinking about lifting, and desu I'm taking a reload week and I'll probably pull some heavy weights when I get back.

So maybe it isn't all bad.

I'm definitely lonely though. Feel like I'll never find someone who makes me feel complete again.

So you're not lonely. You might feel like shit after your deload but that's only natural, don't worry that you got weaker, just ease back into it!

I can relate to your loneliness. I've been talking to this girl lately, and we've really hit it off, but every time we talk I just kind of want to be alone. I feel like I might just be better off alone, but then I get lonely. I don't know anymore man

Yeah I can relate, and I believe you can just get a little jaded when talking to somebody often. It's nice knowing they're there to talk when you really need them, but you don't always need to talk to be reminded of that.
And I guess I just need that sense of security, having somebody to fall back on while I'm struggling, but I don't.

As long as you don't get on a sub in the Navy, from what I hear, the gyms are pretty good. I don't think I'll be able to stay sane without a decent gym tbqf

I can't honestly believe people lift for aesthetics. I can't understand it. There's no trackable progression other than weight and bf which can fluctuate wildly. Seriously if I couldn't train for the numbers I would kms. What's the point?
