/plg/ powerlifting general

Is squatting, bench and deadlifting every day as prescribed by the bulgarian method and greg cuckholds bulgarian manual (and only doing those three lifts) a good programming tactic?

>>40825286
Well about to start my first Friday on sheiko #29. Volume looks fun.

>>40825286
How the fuck do I incline bench press? There's no way my incline is weaker than my ohp, or even my incline with dumbbells. Also my shoulders hurt as fuck when benching. Should I just ignore Mike and this meme excercise? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUophpnzSas

>>40825391
he is on test doesnt matter what he does he will gain faster than any of us doing sheiko

>>40825408
ur either not doing it correctly or just need to get used to it because its your first time

>>40825436
incline press is also very dependent on the bench you have. if you have a steep incline bench with the supports positioned in a shitty way, then you probably wont be able to bench very well. if there isnt one of those metal things to use to support your feet or the bench isnt positioned for you to get good leg drive that will be a problem also.

>>40825436
you take the bar really low and push really horizontal, this isnt flat bench, touch your chest higher and push less towards your head, its supposed to be a straight line, unlike bench and ohp

>>40825501
oh, so I probably should just ignore it. I mean I literally have to put my ass like 10cm above the sitting to even unrack the weight and then I have to lower myself again.
>>40825530
Thanks might also try that. So I should touch somewhere around my nipples?

Why are curls so boring? I hate them but don't want elbow aids

>>40825321
No

>>40825321
I did it with inflated maxes and never sleeping or eating and it was a good prog and instead of realizing how talented I am I'll just respond "lol" to anyone who tells me things I'm wrong about lol.

>>40825742
dont forget
>dbol

ive been benching with an oly bar for a long time and my new gym has actual bench bars. will these let me get higher maxes?

>>40825650
do you have small arms?
are you too fat to see your biceps?

>>40825768
>actual bench bar
what

sure, maybe?

>>40825650
i dont really like any accessories theyre all kinda boring

leg extensions are ok

>>40825811
shorter and a lil thicker

>>40825821
I think you just mean power bar. And unless you're benching a lot (like a couple hundred kg), it probably won't make a big difference tBh. Even Eddie hall benches with like an elephant bar and he's doing like 225kg for sets of 6

>>40825850
yeah my old gym only had olympic bars

i bench 110kg but i do feel a lil stronger with the bar now

maybe its just cause im gripping different since the rings are closer

good but woke up today just feeling like nothing matters; idk why

>>40825925
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLItZNqXaRk

>>40826020
because nothing does anon

>>40826020
maybe it's because nothing does matter and in a very small fraction of the universe's current lifetime everything humanity ever has done and ever will do will be completely obliterated and forgotten about for eternity

>>40826028
it usually matters to me though and that's what gets me through each day

>>40825552
its always about preference, i for example put it right at the base of my throat, that way i cant cheat and the bar goes in a really straight line and i get a sick upper chest pump, but i do it for upper chest hypertrophy, but the main goal is to hit the upper chest. i dont have a lot of arch when benching so the nipples would be nearly my flat bench contact point.
by taking the bar too low and arching aa lot you just try to turn your incline bench into a flat bench and thats useless, go really focused on form and not on strength. i inc about 85% of my flat and ohp about 70% of my bench.

>>40826042

Lol. Do the fucking program.

Powerlifting is a joke. Train however you want, then show up at a meet and lift whatever.

It doesn't matter unless you want to win. If you want to win, stop running, eat, and run gear.

I did ohp for the first time in 3 months or so and got 1x3 and 4x2 at one plate. Pretty happy with this as I'm a twink.

>>40829488
nice

i havent done ohp in a while cause i feel like its unnecessarily working my lower back but everytime i go back to it i can press way more than i could before stopping

whats the best way to get dumbbells up to my shoulders for seated db ohp

once i go to like 70 getting them into position is hard, especially cause the seat of the bench is kinda high up

i basically just momentum throw them up but is there a better way?

im undecided on which bench variation as my main movement though, ive been getting more specific each wave so as to be using the comp lifts 4 weeks out, im torn between close grip or comp grip without a pause, next wave will be comp grip paused

>>40831252
Close grip
Getting used to pausing the reps again is hard and you're not that technically skilled

If powerlifters "aren't insecure like bodybuilders", how come it takes a simple, friendly, slightly condescending "Hey, need a spot?" to get a powerlifter to abandon his "light day" and try to beat whatever I'm squatting or benching that day?
Just wondering.

>>40831694

Instead of TM, can I do this:

AxBxCxx

A:
Squat 5x5
Deadlift 1x5

Hypertrophy/Accessories

B:
Bench Press 5x5
Chins 3xF or 3x5 weighted

Hypertrophy/Accessories

C:
Press 5x5
Power Clean 5x3

Hypertrophy/Accessories


I would still progress at the same rate, but it would mean I could up my bench Press and my Press every week and do more accessory work as well.

Thoughts?

Ironmind strong enough

I'm an intermediate 190/125/220 @ 90kg. Been running c6w for half a year. I broke my back on sheiko running it when I was still a beginner/intermediate. Are cuckols programmes good? I did c6w over them before because they required some thinking rather than just inputting numbers.

Been doing SL 5x5 for about 4 months, 140 lbs 5'6, dl 245 1x5, squat 215 5x5, bench 150 5x5, ohp 100 5x5. Do these numbers seem right? I'm switching to an intermediate PL program soon. maybe 531?
Form feels good for all lifts, except for deadlifts,which i feel like could be cleaner. I say this because my dl's are inconsistent- sometimes the lift feels easier than other times due to form.

>>40832466
Yeah they're alright. Squat ones are a little questionable.

>>40832577
Numbers look fine for your BW except like you said for deadlift. If you want to do 5/3/1 read Beyond 5/3/1 and do the lifts twice a week.

does anyone remember that asian knockoff sbd singlet brand? need a cheapo singlet

>>40825368
I hurt my wrist last week doing them (though still managed to get through this week).
I'll have to do normal squats tmrw though since it's not fully healed.

>>40832577
a couple of questions

1. how much weight have you gained in the last 4 months

2. how much have you put on each lift in the last 4 months

a few further points

you arent intermediate

you arent experience enough to go by feel when it comes to technique

if you post a video of your lifts i will find at least 2 issues with each lift, even if theyre minor they could make a big difference, if not now then down the road when youre handling bigger weights

>>40832466
Those are intermediate numbers? Damn. I'm at 180/130/230 and felt like I was finally pushing into advanced.

>>40832732
im intermediate with 240/180/310(kilos)

>>40832732
Eh I dunno, I'm waiting for a 200kg squat before I compete. I just don't think there's enough volume on the second half of c6w now.
>>40832651
Any recommendations on what ones to do? I can train either 3/4x a week

>>40832716
130 skinny fat, to 140-145 lbs
started from the bar, and kept progressing.

I know that i'm still a beginner but I was under the impression that you do 5x5 for a few months and then switch to an intermediate (not saying i am intermediate).

>>40832791
i prob need a form check, but nothing feels wrong. I'm hitting below parallel, back neutral, nothing feels wrong. ill post a form check soon.

>>40832791
If you're constantly feeling beat up from going close to failure regularly on 5x5 then, it's a decent idea to switch. What program you do is more about what you think is fun.

To drive progress you really just need to keep gaining weight at a steady pace and doing more volume a couple reps from failure.

>>40832791
When you exhaust 5x5, 3x5 gets you way stronger. Then you can switch to an intermediate program after stalling and deloading to see little to no progress.

>>40832823
yeah at around 215 and above, my squat after rep 3 is rather grindy, albeit with good form. (form check soon) thinking about switching to 5x3 before i switch to a different program.

Has anyone here tried RTS coaching? Was it worth the price? Do you actually get personalized coaching from Mike T?

>>40832827
>look at my anecdotal evidence

No, 3x5 did jack shit for me when I exhausted 5x5. It is generally agreed that more volume will drive more progress. Not the other way around.

I think the idea of "trying to keep linear gains" when you're stalling is kind of dumb. As long as you keep increasing volume your muscles will grow and the strength will follow.

I think once you've hit a wall on linear programming it's best to move on asap to something intermediate and keep slowly making gains rather than ramming your head against a wall in different ways hoping that it'll budge just a little bit.

You may progress well on the Blest intermediate program.

http://www.blestcoaching.com/guided-template

>>40833042
you can only increase volume so far though

then you need to gain muscle and work on where you are weak

specificity works to a point, but people generally lack muscle and some hypertrophy work needs to come in

>>40833042
IDK senpai, as long as you're not getting extremely bad form breakdown, I personally don't see a problem with it. Obviously if your butt comes off when benching or you round your back to deadlift, or you squat morning or valgus, then it might be time to switch to more advanced programming. But if it just feels hard to maintain and you have to gain like .5-1 lb a week to keep gaining strength, I don't see a problem with it. I noticed it especially with my pressing, 5x5 was extremely difficult to maintain, switching to 3x5 helped me get a lot more progress, and whenever I added in some accessories to help with the pressing, it actively detracted from my recovery and ability to progress for the next session.

>>40833069
Well yeah, I didn't say anything about how you should get that volume. Doing lots of volume (which is hypertrophy work) at your weak point is obviously a good idea.

>>40833085
I'm talking about at the point where you fail and have to deload. When you're at the point where you aren't making progress, trying to change to a different linear progression to keep it going will have you end up like Rasputin.

>>40833097
Ah, I gotcha. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. On my first two resets I got like 40 lbs out of each of them. If you get only like 5-10 lbs out of it, yeah, you're definitely better off switching to intermediate programming.

I don't know how much muscle mass a normal human can put on in a month/year but I doubt gaining 1 kg a month is possible without a lot being fat after the first month or two. I'd say 0,5 kg is better, because you're still on a surplus and you won't have to cut for as long when you need to.

Any good deadlifter is not squatting and expecting his deadlift to go up. He's working on his deadlift nearly as much as well. You won't have a good deadlift without applying an actual effort towards improving it

>tfw failed my deadlift max after my first two months of sheiko

O-okay. I think I need to fix something here. I couldn't get it off the ground at all and I've already done 405 twice before I started sheiko

>>40836580
okay, so girl I'm dating has had a rough time with finals, her grades and all that shit this semester. She suffers from anxiety and panic attacks and shit like that.

I am literally the most chill person I know and I have literally zero idea how to comfort her or what behaviors might be appropriate if she is having one, I usually just end up saying very platitude sort of shit about how things will be fine, look on the bright side of things and basically I sound like a fake optimistic normie.

I feel like that doesn't help, but as I said earlier I'm a zen autist and don't panic, so I have no clue what she is actually feeling or how I should attempt to comfort her. like, when you have a panic attack or anxiety, what do you feel, what makes you feel better? is a hug really good enough??

>>40836634
in my experience a hug is enough.
just provide comfort whether it be physical or emotional until the attack passes, and it will.

Or rather, has anyone here dealt with that?

I'm switching to low bar for my next training cycle, but I suspect the issue will still be there.

Interesting. Traditional human comforts are usually never bad under these circumstances.

My situations might be specific, but I find myself concerned that something significantly bad is going to result from my actions.

Often, I need some one to walk things through with me logically and to quantify the worst case scenario so I can realize that it's really not that bad.

ok jacob

Anyone else bench better sinking than doing a soft touch. I feel so much stronger like this

WHAT FUCKING SONG IS THIS?

I think that's 'Cuck Call'

During squats, I can feel my hips move ever so slightly before my shoulders move. Barely a tenth of a second, I'm nowhere near good morning it.
Is this cause for concern? How do I correct this?

Do you dive into the bottom?
There's nothing necessarily wrong with bouncing at the bottom as long as you maintain form

Does vidya count?

Good, that means you are using hip drive correctly

How much reps of 225 do you guys think could the top benchers of IPF bench?

30ish?
