Now, anybody ran clutz for bench before? Heard good things about it

In your experience what % of my 1rm would a 5rm be on bench. 90?

>>40333908
5RM is usually 80-85% of your 1RM desu

but t b h senpai a true 5RM will not scale the same to a true 1RM

>>40333769

It flies up fine she's just scared of lifting anything heavy. But she's progressing weekly getting used to it.
Her history of cheer and gymnastics means she has some leg strength already built.

im building a homegym, how do i keep my new bar looking good? i lift every day and i fear for the aesthetics of my gym, after some light deadlifting the bar already looks all scratched and used

should have gone with chrome bar and not black fml

Yep. She's doing pretty well for herself. Her bench is sitting at like 65 until she can learn to make her arms work together instead of independent.
Not deadlifting because it doesn't have much use for her.

>>40334563

That's really sweet, I think I have that issue myself despite benching so long lel.
Will be cool to see what lift she takes a liking to best. Probably something that doesn't belong in powerlifting I would imagine. :^)

Keep us updated

Is the bar traveling forward during squats a serious problem? Insofar as form issues can be only minor issues.

Seems like a lot of guys have some kind of non vertical bar path.

>>40334624
Please stop posting, trappy. It's Friday night. Go out and enjoy the lawless shithole you live in. Kthx.

>>40334563
She said she wants to lift.
Not fling bars around like an ape.
>>40334651
So far she likes squat. We'll see.

/fit/ noob here, how do I get into powerlifting? I'm scared of a lot of barbell exercises because I don't want to have bad form and fuck up by back or something

>>40335047
so youre outsquatting like two children who have ever competed in that lift before, no one cares

>>40335056
1. They won't know you if it's your first meet
2. Lifting raw in the equipped category brings extra attention to you
3. Even if the judges don't notice at first, an equipped guy will probably point it out
Basically you are asking to be scrutinized

>>40335092
im not lifting in the equipped category you misunderstood

>>40335107
Then how are you gonna get the equipped record? You still have to enter the class and submit a record application right? I can't imagine they do all that for you.

>>40335144
im already signed up and like i said idk if it works like that but isley said they may and if it doesnt idc still would be great to think i beat equipped lifters

>>40335158
Dude do some homework and fill out the paperwork.

>>40335166
fill out what paperwork? like i said i already turned in my paper for the meet

>>40335175
>fill out what paperwork?
Ask your coach. I'm sure he'll clear everything up for you.

>>40335188
kys

you arent required to wear gear in the equipped division. Tons of people forego a deadlift suit. I know plenty of people that wear just briefs and have problems hitting depth in a full retard suit.

Tons of people use a single ply Titan shirt in multiply meets.

Most any meet will let you enter all the categories they offer you want - just more money for them.

>>40335201
That's what a coach is for. They should guide your training, help you stay legal-eagle for meets, and keep you from fucking up.

Also in your case, since you are an underage child, your coach might even provide you a car ride to the meet.

Just watch out that your coach doesn't make you touch his stick-shift.

*squat suit that is

>>40335225
Right, that why I said he will still have to enter the additional category. They aren't running a charity.

>>40334992

I doubt he'll care. Age class records don't mean shit.

>>40335288
considering 250.5 is only 10.5 kg off a new open wr id think id mean something that some 17 year old just did that

hi welcome to raw powerlifting where we dont have to buy a new suit or wraps to lift more

>>40333686
I wanna do sheiko large load but the day 2 with deads/pulls seems kinda long.
Is it alright if i split it into 2 days?

So im doing sheiko with a 4 day format.

Or should i just find a new program altogether?

>>40335572
Hi powerlifting is not a raw sport and we wear ace bandages or sleeves during training to keep our shit warm and cue proper position.

>>40335511

I'm not so worried about the loss of the rep, I'm much more worried about the form degradation cause by losing 6 measly fuckin' pounds.

Also, I'm currently running 5/5/5

>>40335585
or just take less time between sets or dont do the large load

No, run sheiko until you actually die. We need a statistic when trappy comes back

These days Ive been reading Starting Strength 3rd edition and I got completely evangelized.
Should I just finally ditch SL5x5 and simply jump onto the SS bandwagon as a mid-novice?

Equipped takes more skill, more technique, more dedicated training, and a crazier mentality than raw. I don't want to compete equipped because I like raw more, but I don't look down on the foundation of our sport.

Check ur talentchad priv.

what did I miss

How are they compared to the other expensive sleeves, sbd etc?

>>40335666

>>40335730

But you spent how much on it?

>>40335754
Half of what most suits cost

Also whats the point youre trying to make ? That i spent money on something i wear when lifting? Oh shit the shorts i used to wear when lifting dam why am i not lifting 100% nude!!!!!!

>>40335751
No bait, kid. It's a better squat suit than guys were wearing in the 70s and 80s

>>40335779
Work on it a but more its almost there but not quite

>>40335766

That you bought a "retardedly expensive" singlet that DOESN'T help you lift more

:)

>>40335766
It's literally twice the cost of a z suit or champion suit

>>40334764

It makes no difference. Just wait until you are done with SL then do Texas Method.

>>40335608
Nah. It's good for mid to late intermediate lifters. It will be good for someone after texas method no longer works for them.

You're pretty mad I pointed out your double standard hey?

Something to think about in the future, lad: maybe don't shit on people's hobbies or interests, because to other people yours are just as silly.

>when poutine mercilessly ENTJs the fuck out of a literal orphan

WEW

How do I keep my lats and arms tight like frog's during the squat. My arms always go under the bar and I lose lat tightness but I wanna keep them more perpendicular to my body

>>40335840

I don't even know why this is a thing, we don't compete against one another.

>>40335864
>double standard
No you didnt point any double standard out i said spending money on stuff that makes you lift more is dumb

I never said spending money on clothes was dumb lmao which considering a singlet fits the criteria for doesnt help and is clothes i havent been at all contradictive

Also that smile in your comment shows your the one mad not me lmao

Goddamnit a fucking sbd singlet is more supportive than some older style suits and costs more. But you don't know that because you've never trained in gear or done a meet, right?

>>40335894
Because people get mad that other people like things that they don't.

>>40335940
Let me rephrase what I literally just said spending a lot of stuff that makes you lift more is dumb

Spending money on a hobbie is not that literally pertains to anything from supps to home gym equipment lol

Do you not get i just dont like equiped liftong or are you still going to try to argue this lmao

>>40335950
Give me any evidence that a sbd singlet actually helps you lift in any way just because old time shitters used to wear the same thing doesnt mean it helped them lift more

Also me doing a meet literally has nothing to do with the conversation

>>40335968
Who taught you that equipped lifting is bad? You don't have enough experience to make your own decision.

1. Do I cue elbows down or up in a lowbar squat?????
2. i own a deadlift suit for no reason, what do i do with it

>>40335979
> having no experience doesn't matter

Ok trappy

>>40335992
>1
I also have this question, and I'd like to know how to get my elbows up, when they never seem to want to move that way

Use it as a tool to overload your deadlift for shits n giggles once in a while

>>40336004
>having no meet experience
Yea in the conversation we are having atm has nothing to do with competing so id definitely say it doesnt matter lmao

reminder that if your back forms an angle more than 45 degrees from vertical, you aren't squatting

>>40336047
white lights are white lights

>>40335992
>>40336009
I've grown to prefer elbows more down, like Gabe Malone.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7RHEeTjh8M

It helps me keep my back tight. Pushing elbows back/up sometimes leads to people letting their chest fall.

>>40336126
Ah that's how I squat naturally thanks anon

Very serene music too I like it

>>40335992
for 1. some people prefer elbows back to have a more stable "shelf" for the bar to sit on, but I personally cue elbows down for greater overall back tightness.

just try both and see what works

>>40335572

You know you can use knee sleeves in RAW competitions, right?

>>40335989

Equipped lifting is stupid ego bullshit to try to lift more weight than one actually can so they can act stronger than they actually are. May as well get in a crane, lift a literal ton, and claim you can lift a literal ton.

Fuck off. If you don't lift RAW, you don't lift.

>>40336337
Unless you buy super tight knee sleeves they will not help you lift any more weight

They keep your knee joint warm

>>40336348
desu anyone willing to put that effort/money into equipped has probably surpassed ego lifting terrority
not like any reasonable person would claim their equipped bench is their raw bench and no one is asking about anything else

>>40336355

But they are knee support.

Goddamnit, I implied nothing of the sort.

One dude asked, "why aren't you wearing knee support?" Someone responded to that by saying raw lifters don't buy suits or wraps to lift more. I said that he can still buy knee support.

You illiterate steez.

>>40336505

I'm 99% sure that's why I do it. Even though I stopped watching RAW entirely months ago.

>>40335968

What I'm saying, lad, is you're being a little shit about something you've never seen. I'm also saying you're being a little shit to someone about their hobby because you don't like it, for some reason, based on assumptions that you have made.

Do you know why it is I think you really hate equipped lifting? Because you wouldn't be good at it. Because you haven't put in the time.

Because you're being a little brat and you've fallen into doing this: >>40335953

And because you have accepted this mentality: >>40336348 which is only perpetrated by people who have never touched a bench shirt, and think it's as easy as throwing on their Slingshot.

I take offence to your attitude lad, and I suggest you get some perspective on it. Don't be a dick to people who like to do other things, or other sports, or other versions of sport (like, seriously, do you think equipped lifters walk around acting like their geared total is their raw total? Where have you even had this experience? You have a fucking home gym and you've never been to a meet.) than you do.

I respect your drive, lad, and your total, and everything that you've accomplished. I think you have the potential to do very well

But give your head a fucking shake.

>>40336554

It's partly because of delusional equipped dipshits that powerlifting is a farce of a niche sport. Powerlifting would be better off if they all dropped dead.

These are facts.

>>40336554
Considering he literally is about to squat more then the equiped squat record saying he will be no good at equiped is retarded

Tell that to cycling, competitive swimming, alpine sports, or autosports to name a few.

Or are these not """"""respected""""" sports because your teenage brain has decided that because you don't like them, so must the rest of the world agree.

You are acting like a brat, grow the fuck up, and don't shit on things you've never tried, or even fucking seen. Have you tried even TALKING to an equipped lifter? Or anyone in the PL community out of the cesspool of 4chan? Have you asked about the technique changes? Have you wondered why people who can easily bench 315 lbs for reps raw can't even get it once in a shirt? Have you done any research before forming an opinion, or have you simply passed judgement arbitrarily? If the latter is true, you are ignorant, quite to the definition, and I hope one day you mature enough to decide that forming an opinion on something you know nothing about is toxic.

Actually, you know what, naw, go to your meet, break your records, and start talking shit about the guys who are dedicated enough to try multi-ply and see how the community reacts.

he could very well bomb out since he trains alone and doesn't have a team or coach. You can't even get real gear on and off by yourself, let alone lift at a meet.

>>40336659
It was a PR. Previous record was 500 lbs.
Pulled 515, then tried for 535.
I think I could have hit 525, if I had tried that first.

>>40336689
>argument from age fallacy
Great way to make what your saying valid

Also in cycling buying a bike isn't something you put on to make you better
Also >swiming
Are you saying the suit and there cap is somehow boosting their times as much as equiped boosts lifts? Lmao
Also sports that literally require you to have the equipment such as alpine is not the same as a strength sport like pl
And >autosports
We are talking about athletics here if you forgot

Btw single ply is probably the only type of equiped lifting that even has dignity lmao especially ipf single ply lifters
Multiply is literally egotistical cancer

>>40336695

Sorry, no vids.

>>40336717
I remember at my first powerlifting meet watching a guy put on a squat suit.

>dude hangs the suit from a pull-up bar on a rack
>climbs up on top of the rack
>"wtf is this nigga doing???"
>jumps down into the suit
>like fucking Bugs Bunny getting dressed by jumping off a building and falling through a bunch of clothes suspended in air
>starts bouncing up and down until he squeezes his thighs through the legs
>he's a manlet so he has to have his friends get him down when he's done
>FAILS his first attempt and doesn't bother doing anymore attempts after that

It is quite the sight to behold.

>>40336696
Pads do not make your body preform better same goes for a new racket or bike

i'm really interested to see how Frogman does in April. With no meet experience and no formal coaching (that i've heard) it'd be interesting to see how he does. Can we call him the underdog(?) of powerlifting?

315 for reps cant get it once in a shirts...
have you ever known someone to put on a slingshot and less weight. unless youre saying they cant get 315 to touch in the shirt lmao

this kind of delusion is the reason people have issues with multiply. as well as the terrible depth multiply squats, the belly benches that arent locked out(its a medical issue bro) , and sumo suited deadlifts where they literally dont do the only part of the lift where they arent getting major help(lockout).

>>40337500

A shirt can totally fuck you even if you can get it to touch. It'll tend to want to put the bar down super low (sometimes super high, but that's rarer) and if you don't get it right in the groove you've now got an atrocious raw touch position and little/no help from the shirt. That's part of why so many guys end up dumping it on their stomach when its hard to touch.

>>40337513
no no no that cant be right

there is no technique or skill involved in equipped lifting, each suit/shirt is not different and require a different line/approach, they do all the work for you

Not that much
120kg for 5

I took a break for 4-5 months due to injury and now I come back more flexibility than before so my bottom position is even lower.

Everything feels clunky and awkward and it's like I can't actively use my muscles or keep tight as I descend at all.

Not really sure what happened.

>>40337859
>I took a break for 4-5 months due to injury

you dont stop, you rehab

i herniated a disc and took a week off

i didnt start loading weight on the bar but i kept up the movements and a load of stability work so when i was able to start ramping up i wasnt in the position you find yourself in

>>40337859

well, you almost have to relax if you go too deep

and we tend to forget the basics:
squeeze bar
push bar into back
bend the bar to activate lats
twist the floor with your feet to activate glutes

it's very hard not to stay tight if you just think about those 4 things

>>40337871
I realised my mistake, so what should I do?

Lots of pause squats, breathing squats, tempo without increasing load much?

>>40337880
your issue is the squat so just squat

youve had a lot of time off you werent experienced enough to have seriously ingrained the movement so learn to squat again sorry pal

Lads whats your difference between your belted "normal" squat and your beltless paused (1sec) squat?
Context: I don't specificly train for powerlifting but I really enjoy getting stronger on compound lifts (including the big 3) and recently I got into this paused meme stuff and the difference seems pretty big for me.
I did 160Kg x3 with a belt and I only got 120Kg x6 beltless and paused... is this normal?

>>40337901
>>40337903
at what point should i consider?_? roughly speaking

>>40337913
when you need 10-12 weeks to add weight to the bar?

i still dont so....

Because people are trendwhores and will always go for the shilled routines, whether or not they're actually intended for the lifters situation. Happened before here with TM and 5/3/1, now the flavour of the month is Sheiko.

Also it's recognised as a pretty hardcore routine, so people looking to do/be seen doing insane stuff gravitate to it.
