If you added calisthenics more into your routine, properly stretched, and focused less on "muh big muscles", you could easily do it.

You're probably just a fat peice of shit.
Most power lifters are actually quite flexible.
Also, you shouldn't have spent 12 years being a fat powerlifter

How do you spend 12 years powerlifting and bodybuilding without doing RDLs or SLDLs? They give you instant ham flexibility.
>>40178057
lose some weight you fat fuck
>>40178237
>implying you are not bullshitting
Try l-sits, levers, crow stands, skin-the-cats, etc instead of your extremely basic exercises.
>>40178569
Or just lift weights instead of being a callisthenics fag with no muscle
>>40178057
How the fuck do you do no mobility work?
Inb4 ur a fat piece of shit
>>40178801
>assuming
I do lift. Stop assuming that people do one or the other.
>>40178801
This, Just stretch if u want mobility with it
>>40178801
Yeah, calisthenics don't build muscle at all.
I can touch the back of my hands to the floor with my legs straight and together
Is stretching even beneficial or am I just memeing myself by doing pointless shit every day
>>40178832
Shhh. He only wants huge muscles that makes him look different instead of nice ones that calisthenics provide along with benefits of better mobility and movement. He doesn't want to hear many bodybuilders will switch to bodyweight temporary when they feel their muscles getting too tight and foam rolling or massages won't do a thing to them.
>>40178899
Is this a new type of shitposting?
>>40178871
pointless unless you wanna play sports. You never go past those muscle movements in daily activities or lifting
>>40178916
I play baseball
>spend 3 hours a day lifting
>still fail my calculus exam
;_;
>>40178915
Nope. The best lifters do a combination of heavy lifts and calisthenics. The worst ones can barely do any type of movement other than what theirs lifts. Calisthenicfags have little muscle mass but still are small, but the movements they can perform is awe-striking. Try incorporating the harder bodyweight exercises some time. You'll feel better and I guarentee that you'll do better in your lifts.
It could just be your genetics. I've been working out for about four years (never stretching besides before runs) and I can reach UNDER my feet, keeping my legs straight. I can put my legs behind my head too which is pretty rare for guys

can you suck on your own weiner?
