i cant double over hand anything over 2 plates from the floor

how do i train my grip?

>>41055753
farmers walks or hook grip

>>41055753
static hold are also good, anything that requires holding things for periods of time.

>>41055753
Heavy pulls and carries. Do them all, frequently.

p--p-p-princesaaaaa

>>41055749
Project Deez

>>41055753
Heavy dumbbell rows really helped my grip out
As did weighted pullups
If you're not doing those then you really should having a big back helps a lot with general strength and ass-thetics

>>41055753
i hook grip and always hold my last rep at the top

also sweaty hands wreck your grip

thx dudes , the above grip advice has been noted and will be applied to my trayning in the future

Anyone else have the problem where they can't get an erection for a day or two after deadlifting heavy?

>>41055753
I got 475 double overhand, held for about 3 secs at top before grip gave out. Never done a direct g rip exercise in my life. Jelly fampai?

Doing first meet in June. Third attempts are gonna be S: 550 B: 400 D: 650. Competing in 242 class... any advice for a first time comp?

>>41055749
If the webm is OP:

You are putting your hips too far down during your setup. This is causing you to move them upward slightly as you engage with the weight. This not only wastes effort but seems to be putting your lower back into a slightly relaxed position.

>>41055953
Hello

>>41056307
Talk to people and make friends and just make sure to get your openers
just have fun really
And try not to stress so hard the night before or the day of (even though you definitely will)

>>41056307
This>>41056345
Ill add, go 9/9 as well. It will ensure you have fun and want to compete again

>>41056345
I'm looking forward to the 24 hours after weigh ins. Going to see if I can hit the 10,000 kcal mark.

>>41056307
Read your Feds rulebook.
Open light.
Have a handler that won't fuck you.
Open light.
Eat and drink during the meet.
Open light.

>>41056380
So you have to shit 6 times during the meet?

>>41056367
I was unlucky on my squat and just too ambitious on my bench and super fatigue on my deadlift so i went 6/9 but i definitely will do again

>>41056380
Try not to stiff yourself so hard, youll have fun puking on the judge while deadlifting

>>41056392
Planning on what I could do in the gym for a double on a really shitty day. Probably S: 475, 525, 550 B: 365, 385, 400 D: 585, 630, 650

>>41056330
i'll keep that in mind, been a long time since i deadlifted conventional

>>41056422
Double? Triple is the rule.

>>41056411
>Me me me
>I I I
You've done one fucking meet. Stfu

How wide should my stances be on big 3? Recently I've been making 1RM gains by widening things (esp going from conventional to sumo) so I'm tweaking my technique. Would it be worth trying to go as wide as humanly possible or is there some sweet spot in the middle I should be looking for?

>>41056458
Extra wide equipped. Moderate raw.

>>41056444
First meet was the subject of the convo i was telling my experience of that exact subject So the guy asking could expect or avoid the same mistakes

But me saying this wont matter because you and the other autists will still try to find something to say no matter what i do

>>41056444
Hahaha i bet youre the same person who raged on him about not competing too lmao youre sad man

>>41056518
He asked what he should do, not what you did. I bet irl people yawn in your face or look at their phone and you just keep talking about yourself.

>>41056543
Nope thats literally never happened
Also talking about my own experience is a pretty good way for someone else to gage what they shoukd expect

>muscles initially feel like they aren't doing any work at all but suddenly fail towards end of set
>couldn't control my left-right arm/body imbalance

what the fuck? i've trained on low sleep before but this is weird. I felt like I had no control over my muscles. Is this what training as a girl feels like?

don't get overly connected to what you want as thirds, especially this far out. you might feel like shit that day and not hit any of those and be disappointed, or you might feel great and have way more in you, or you may feel ok and squat and bench fine but be drained by the time deadlift comes around. see how you feel that day and let that dictate your thirds.

talk to people. people at comps are usually super friendly and helpful. tell people good job. cheer for people. everyone wants you to do well, even if you are competing. be nice to everyone. have fun.

have someone there to calm you down .

take your last warmup as the flight before you is starting their third attempts.

be smart about what you eat and drink all day. make sure you have enough, but not too much.

open with something that you could pretty much wake up, roll out of bed, and hit at RPE5

practice the commands as often as possible, especially the bench ones.

>>41056430
I usually open with what I feel like is my 4 rep max, so what I can triple @9

I've come up with what might be the greatest scientific result in strength sports. I call it the GDE formula.

I, myself, have relentlessly proven my GDEness. I'm 188cm (6'2) and 105kg (~230lbs). My stats are 200/135/240 (440/300/530).

The GDE formula reads :

F_GDE = f_s x f_il x f_el x f_th

Where F_GDE is the GDE factor, f_s is a factor that accounts for general strength (muscle nass, technique, CNS adaptation), f_il accounts for internal leverage, f_el for external leverage and f_th factors in the power of will (trying hard).

Let's now compare the world best (screamer) and me. He certainly is at least 20% stronger, being shorter his external leverage are 10% better (except in deadlift), I've taken f_il = 1.15 and assumed he tries 5% harder. All in all, we get F_GDE = 1.6 for bp and squat and F_GDE = 1.45 for deadlift (f_el = 1).

To some weak experimental and estimation error, we get

Total(Screamer) = F_GDE x Total(me)

If you think I've just thrown some random number in, know that I've been working on this for months and will submit a short article to some scientific journal very soon.

FR if you're still here, lower all of those openers and from now until the meet, pause your bench for longer. I would be very surprised if your bench pause in competition is that quick. even if you're fatigued, your squat opener for your first meet should be rpe5. you're going to be nervous. take something that the only way you would ever even have to worry about misgrooving is if someone comes up and hits you in the knee with a lead pipe.

also refer to what I said to the other anon a few posts up.

Moving out to Sweden (Lund) for 10 months soon. Any bro over there? Can someone recommend a good pl gym in the region?

>>41057040

Final day of fucking around, gonna start a real program after easter. What should I bench, deadlift and do for accessories plg?

It's normal for benching to require a lot more focus as you get heavier right? Feels like 80% is much harder than 80% used to be.

87.5kgx6 on cuckols was pretty hard for me and I'm supposed to hit 92.5kgx4 tomorrow

Not even sure if I can do it, if I've done the 6s so I should be able to do the 4s but feel like I'm going to get crushed

Failed a squat PR last week and this week had to deload 10kg of my normal squat weights because had no strength at all. Did that failed rep drain all my strength or what the fuck? I never miss training reps, but how important is not to fail PR attempts outside of competition period?

>>41057393
it is

How do you clean your knee sleeve? Mine are starting to stink, and my hands smell of sweaty sock when i put them on.

Worried about putting them in the washing machine incase they are ruined.

Are these any good for competing?
Bw - 100kg
Squat - 192kg
Bench - 110kg
Deadlift - 230kg

>there are other Belgians in /plg/
Holy crap, never seen that before.
I'm looking to start competing. I live in Leuven, is there any meet besides the Flemish open I can sign up for? I was looking around the IPF affiliated fed and it seems most meets are interclubs but there are no powerlifting clubs anywhere near me, or at least not close enough to regularly go train and join their team for meets. But as far as I could see, that only leaves the Flemish open championship that I can sign up. The Belgian championship requires a (low, easy to reach) qualifying total but it's like a month after the Flemish open so that kinda messes up the training. Would suck to only be able to compete once a year.

Can you guise please rate this squat desu

Monday
3x5 heavy

Tuesday
4x5 very light

Thursday volume
6x8 moderate

I'm also doing 28free 2xint deadlift on monday and thursday.

Squat 180ish kg
Deadlift 200 kg

>tfw realized that my deadlift sucks now because I'm cutting and now have a twink tier torso with lmaonomass

>>41058163
You are a bit heavy, you could probably afford to recomp.

Your bench is hardly even above your body weight, sqaut is decent and DL is alright too but you could be that strong at 80kg unless you are a lanklet.

>>41058623

What do you guys think of The Cube? Someone at my gym recommended it to me, and it seems like fun. Right now I'm planning on starting it next week. Has anyone done it before?

Pre back injury (Could not lift lower body for 6 months)
>110kg BW
>115kg bench
>185kg squat
>230kg DL (Grind)


Now (4 months of lifting lower body again, started at bitch weight)
>90kg bw
>122.5kg bench
>170kg sqaut
>235kg DL (Was ez fast pull no grind)

Is muscle memory a thing? How did i manage to get stronger in such a short amount of time and weigh significantly less, i bulked for 8 months to get those first lifts and did this whilst eating at maintenance/defect only started squatting properly again 12 weeks ago too.

>>41058476
Can't help you, vriend. I'm not looking to compete yet.
I tried looking for a club too but couldn't find any in a reasonable distance. Shit sucks.

>>41057706

>>41057924
Failing reps is extra hard on your recovery, try to avoid it.

My first heavy day of doing Texas method I hit my squat, (190kg x5)

On my bench attempt (130kgx1) I was just grinding it out at a sticking point and my friend who I never train with and doesn't pl took some of the weight off of me early because he thought I needed help, I'm fairly certain I was going to get it.

I was a little pissed but I got the same weight a week ago when I was finishing 5/3/1, should I just count it because when I tried again I didn't get it because of fatigue

How to improve bench arch? Any good stretches?

WL or flat shoes?
Been thinking about switching to flats from wl shoes, how do I go about it? I can't comfortably squat with the same stance (heels under armpits kek) with flats as I do with a heeled shoe. Should I just try going wider? Are there any guidelines as to what should work better for certain body types? I'm 6'3 with memurs.

What should I do instead of C6W bench programming?

>>41059010
I dont get why people say C6W is shit for bench, so far added 10kg in two cycles.

>your arch will never trigger people i

>>41059016
First time running, hit my previous paused max tng and couldn't even tng 2kg more

>>41059016
It doesn't work if your bench is above 100kg Dino

>>41059049
but hit massive pbs on the volume, go to 90% for 4 when my previous was 1. Maybe I just had a shit day when testing maxes.

>>41059049
You added no weight at all?

What accessories did you do, and did you hit the max rep range for each week?

>>41059051
My bench was 115kg for 3 reps at end of this cycle.

>>41059058
Did dumbbell flies, only thing I didn't hit was 95%x2 rest I gotta all the maxes

>>41059080
May be that i got good results because i added a lot of pressing, i did dips twice a week and bar bell OHP.

Upper body day
Bench
Pendlay row
BB OHP
Pull ups
Dips
Curl
Lat raises

Lower body day
Sqaut
DL or paused DL
Leg raises
planks

>>41059103
Bench, bb OHP (also improve massively) bb rows, pull ups, flies and hammer curls

>>41059118
Maybe just wasn't enough volume for you , what is your current bench?

I went from 5/3/1 to candito so the added frequency and volume helped me out a lot I think.

>>41059136
120kg 1rm. I came from doing 5x5 ss. Gonna run it again and add the odd set here and there.

>>41055753

Chalk, then try harder.

>>41056307

Read. The. Rules.

Then read them again and understand what equipment is legal and what isn't. Pay attention to the judge's commands.

You'll need your opening attempts and rack heights when you weigh in. Don't be that guy doing kilo conversions when it's your turn on the scale. There are people in line waiting to eat and drink.

Don't open too high. No one cares what your first attempts are, but they will notice if you fail them. Open with something you can triple on any day of the week, 90% is a good rule of thumb. Second attempts can be 95%, or something you can double.

If this is your first meet and have never watched a meet before, then go spectate so you learn the flow of the competition.

On meet day, pay attention to how large the flights are and what flight you're in so you know when to start warming up. If you're in the second flight, then think about starting warmups between when the first flight starts their second attempts and when they're halfway done with their second attempts.

Make a warmup plan to follow, and make two plans for all your lifts: aggressive and conservative.

Have fun. Ask questions and make friends.

>>41059183
How much did your over lifts improve?

>>41055749
Your position in the beginning is good, why are you leaning back?

I think heavy/speed/rep might work as a 3x/wk DUP thing where you do one of each lift each day for a different modality (eg squat heavy, bench reps, speed deads), it would at least be fun.

>>41058680
It's a pretty well-known phenomenon, people tend to bounce back to/near their old numbers pretty quickly once they get back to training.

>>41060076
I think you kind of missed my point: if you wanted to Cube or something like it, I think the lift frequency just isn't there. So if you want to play around with exercises and vary your loads you could do something like

Mon
Heavy comp squat
High rep spoto bench
Speed deads

Wed
Paused speed squats
Heavy comp bench
High rep SLDLs

Fri
High rep squat variant
Long paused speed bench
Heavy comp deads/block pulls

I just don't see doing each lift heavy once every few weeks being productive for >natty lifters.

>>41060894

Pick one

>>41060942
You need sleep for every program.

If I do one set of deadlifts for 5 once a week with mixed grip should I alternate the grip each week or keep it the same? The question is in regards to muscle imbalances and injury prevention.

>>41060956
It's not like I don't sleep at all. It's just that I feel that I get like an hour or 2 less sleep every night than I need to feel completely rested.

>>41060999
Then find a way to get that extra hour or two before even thinking about programs.

Week 1

Day 1 – 75% 4×3 (four sets of 3 reps)

Day 2 – 80% 3×2

Day 3 – 70% 4×4

Day 4 – 85% 3×1

Day 5 – 65% 5×5

Week 2

Add one set to each day (so Day 1 becomes 75% 5×3)

Week 3

Add one rep to each set (so Day 1 becomes 75% 5×4)

On day 4, instead of doing 85% 4×2, do one set of as many as possible with 85%. If you get 6 or 7 reps, add 5lbs/2.5kg to your training max. If you get 8 or 9 reps, add 10lbs/5kg to your training max. If you get 10 or more reps, add 15lbs/7.5kg to your training max. Start back over at week 1 with your new training max.

If you can only train 4 days per week, you can just drop the 65% day. If you can only train 3 days per week, you can drop the 70% day as well.

Run this for SQ/BP (and maybe add some bench acc) and pull singles twiceish a week.

You've wrecked your body retard

>>41061300
Congrats!
Im thinking about doing the single @9-9.5 to get a little overload in before we peak next week

>>41061405

Thanks I was aiming for the same but it literally took 9 seconds for me to go from chest to lockout on that bench. I'll post the video once I'm home.

>>41061440
>took 9 seconds
Thats my only problem with rpe, every once in a while the first set will be @7 then when I up the weight I almost fail.

I'll be throwing in some slanger work in my next cycle of PM, I just wrote it up and im hyped.

>>41061472

While I feel like some overload work would definitely help, just having to always hit a heavy single is pretty good on it's own at making you comfortable with heavy weights. I've never done much overload work though so I can't really speak too much on the matter.

I have a strange feeling my neighbors can see through the drapes that I'm fapping.
I checked before by looking from the outside of the drapes - I can't see anything, but when I'm fapping, look at the drapes, I can see the lights outside. Can they or can't they see me?

>>41061534
I partly want to do it for overload but im mainly doing it for the memes/fun.

After 5 years of powerlifting, I quit.

Lifting for nothing but the big 3 is fun for a while, but y'all take it too seriously.

I've switched to lifting 3 days per week, and running or hiking 3 days per week. My mile time has dropped by 2 minutes, and my bodyweight has dropped by 20 lbs. My lifts only dropped 10%.

I look better, feel better, and will still occasionally compete for fun with friends.

Don't take this whole memelifting thing too seriously. You won't be any happier with a >400 wilks.

>>41061991
K.

>>41060998
Do all your warmups with double overhand, or at least as many as you can. Assuming you do other shit for your shoulders like rows or pullups or fucking facepulls etc then don't worry about those five reps once a week.

>>41061991
>wilks
Fuck that shit. I compete to bench in front of a crowd.

>>41062109
That's extremely shallow and lame

>>41061991
Maybe you just didnt actually enjoy powerlifting and others like it more than you dumbass

>>41061991
>You won't be any happier with a >400 wilks.
people lift because they want to lift
dont pretend you are suddenly happy because youve done a few laps of the park, or you were never sad to begin with and were just being a bitch

and youll not be any happier when you get a 4 minute mile so dont take it so seriously

>>41062109
Impress them by dropping it on your neck. That's the only exciting aspect of powerlifting.

>>41062165
It was a fun hobby. Only a chapter in a lifetime of fitness tho.

found the problem, you never actually knew what powerlifting is, the participation in powerlifting and training is not carried out on the internet
posting in plg does not make you a powerlifter

>>41062262
>you never actually knew what powerlifting is
I'm a member of 2 powerlifting/strongman gyms. I still lift with a lot of those guys. 1700-2000 lb totals are easy to find there, if you're willing to roid. I'm natty, and 1500 was good enough.

>>41062294
then you wouldnt have posted what you posted
you tell those guys they are in a tranny club because they want to compete in a hobby they like

stop preaching to people, if you want to run then fucking run, most powerlifters dont give a fuck about running and want to powerlift

>Week 3 Day 1 of Nuckols 2x Int DL
I had to take a 5 second breather between each rep on my last set. Is this okay, or am I just really shitty at deadlift volume compared to my max?

My deadlift max at 405lbs wasn't super hard, like I probably could have done 410 or 415 instead, but it was the first time testing my max since my max was 365 so I chose to keep it modest. But holy fuck the percentages that I'm expected to work with are so hard.
Maybe I'm not used to volume yet? I just sort of fucked around to get 405.

>>41063488
Nah, I went from a 225lbs deadlift to a 315lbs deadlift just by doing deficits 3x5 once a week, then from 315lbs to 365lbs by doing deficits and RDLs, then 365lbs to 405lbs by doing block pulls and deficits for like 4x3. I fell for my own memes.

Honestly that a drawback if anything. Think about it, going from his starting point to his absolute best that he has done and may ever do was a 205lbs jump.
Talk about no potential.

Has there ever been any non monolift heavy squat fails of like 400kg+ in comp? I know that Ray Williams looks like he has a lot more trouble with reaching depth than getting the weight back up, but still it seems like an accident waiting to happen

>>41064353
Kelly branton failed a heavy squat last year at worlds idk how heavy it was though. It ended terribly

Need advice for stronger off the floor for deadlifts

Pls halp

>>41064427
Deficits and pauses just off the floor. Quad work can help as well

>>41064427
Regular recommendations:
Deadlift to knees
Deficit deadlifts

My strange trick power lifters don't want you to know:
Jefferson deadlifts

Very serious, doing these helped me grind the weight off the floor.

>>41064353

just look up "fautly spotting at ipf worlds 2016"

>>41064440
About how long for pauses
2-3 sec?

>>41064400

>>41064453

>>41064452

It was 900+ literally just watched that video before you recommended it. Tbh the spotting on that one wasn't awful compared to the others at least the spotters look like they lift on that's one, was just him shaking that made it worse.

>>41065452
You really don't need to eat that way. If you're forcefeeding yourself you're overdoing it. Even if you're an "oh but I have a small appetite" fag you still can get a caloric surplus with some extra milk and a PB&J.

>>41065476
Would you recommend eating more frequently then like high cal snacks in between meals

>>41065158
>make your relationship with food even worse

it already IS terrible and its fucked lads... just fucked

it fucks up other shit in my life too, like, having a shitty relationship with food gives me a shitty relationship to work, school, friends, senpai, etc and I feel like a pussy for being so emo just because I can't eat without hating myself.

>>41056103
dude me too

130kg-110kg-150kg

>>41065492
...sure. Whatever works, I've never bothered to track calories for more than a few days, I eat 'adequately' most of the time and I do more vegetables/less pizza when I get too fat. I've usually got a 2-4 pack at ~190 and 5'10.

Most of the time you should just eat to recover. High protein obviously, plenty of carbs especially around when you train, and don't be afraid of fats either. You can get away with plenty of bullshit but don't make every single meal a pile of meat and cheese. If you're trying to gain weight, add a few spoonfuls of peanutbutter to a casein shake before you go to bed.

What does a typical day's eating look like for you?

>>41065452
Have you tried using a blender and a funnel?

From my experience it's a lot easier to eat a shit load of carbs and some fat/protein than it is to eat a shit load of fat and protein and some carbs.
So I guess what I'm saying is acquaint yourself with pasta/creme sauces and spanish rice.

>>41065452
you just do it
its only hard for the first 3 days or something

its also important to eat at the same times everyday when you eat really irregular you cant eat that much in my experience
