that is the biggest reason why you never should do a dirty of perma bulk(basicly same thing anyway)

you'll get too fat and by the time you'll get lean youll look like dyel again

>>41782912
thanks for making this shitpost thead OP. I read his bench advice on tucking elbows and I think it's going to help me a lot!

>>41783131
No. Look at Thrall, he looks even worse. Powerlifting is for genetic losers. There are some athletic, talented people but they're better off competing in real sports.
PL is just for social rejects that tell themselves that strength is superior because they know deep down they'll look like shit when they cut. You cant blame them, but makes it difficult to take them serious

>>41783154
He knows his shit, does his research well, cites studies. Lots of his references have been linked lately and some less than fortunate guys dislike it for obvious reasons, notably frame size and muscular potential.
His squat article or book, its 92 pages, is pure gold.

>>41783130

>>41783159
he looks like shit because his upperbody is weak and his bodyfat is also high. Also he has been training wrong for years (upperbody mass terms wise), benching once a week for years

My point exactly. Actual great looking, strong powerlifters are few and far between. That is because sheer muscle size and leanness are not enough to look good.
And real athletes go into other sports

So this... is the power... of the world's strongest man.

>>41783148
Only if you cut like an idiot. A planned cut with proper deficit and strength training during the cut minimizes the actual muscle loss.

Of course one loses top end strength during the cut, but that snaps back very quickly when returning back to a normal caloric intact.

My guess is you know shit about training.

>>41783159

Or they are not so much interested in how good they look vs how much force they can produce. Depending on the weight category system in place for most of them BF% does not matter.

They are playing a game you dolt.

>>41783265

yea, but real athlethes dont train for looks either but I agree with you to some point, beacuse many folks around age of 18-19 starts training and founds out about lifting weights more serious while its to late for being team sport athlethe

>>41783205
>>41783220
Are you retarded? They both have very good upper body development, the key difference is one has wider clavicles and narrower hips and the other has narrower clavicles and wider hips. Neither of them could change anything of those aspects of their physique. Are you trolling?

>>41783333
checked. First guy looks amazing, the other guy not so much

>>41783285

The problem here is that greg still after cutting lost a considerable ammount of strength and he still hasn't even went below 20% bf.
He knows that he will just get even weaker if he cuts more.

>>41783403
The studies he cites you can believe though. But were I a framelet, I'd love to dismiss all his articles as bullshit too

He is cutting wrong then. As a matter of fact if he is over 20% BF he can both cut and gain muscle at the same time.

Hes gonna feel like shit, low stamina, low energy and his testosterone is gonna drop, but that part of the cutting game.

Loosing significant muscle during a cut is a rookie mistake.

>>41784112
Losing strength and losing muscle are two completely different things. Which one can we actually tell he's losing? Thought so.

>>41784231
he is most likely barely losing any muscle and is just getting weaker because he is in a caloric deficit

Boris is an actual genius and actually have real credentials unlike any of these other people. He also coached the junior weightlifting team in the soviet union.

Only comparable coach out there is Dietmar Wolf.

>>41784231
We cant tell what he is losing.

If his deficit is greater than TDEE - 500 a day and he is not taking in enough protein to support his LBM he will lose more muscle mass then he has to. He still has to lift "heavy" during the cut to force the body to maintain muscle mass.

Muscle mass does not automatically translate into strength different styles of training can and do produce different results bigger muscle does not mean stronger.

On a cut he is going to lose his top end strength by 20 to 30% if he is a competitive lifter. Which he should be able to get back with a more caloric rich diet and a competition prep program of 11 to 12 weeks.

>>41784503

he still coaches kiddo weightlifters in russia, does many great seminars and coaching from him isnt actually expensieve

powerlifting is a sport for genetic lottery winners who are naturally strong and can pack on strength fast

>>41785593
>a lot of them are fat because they do not give a shit about looks
Are people who say this not at all familiar with the sport? I've never seen someone who's competitive in the 83kg category or below who'd be considered fat. In fact, they usually even have abs, because when weight is limited, muscle is going to be more worth it to pack on pound by pound strength, than fat.

>>41785936
A lot of 83s and 93s are midgets that bulk up into the class like Gibbs. Haack and Wierzbicki are both on roids so they don't count.

Few months ago, he held a seminar at my gym in Europe (didn't attend it though). Really smart guy and all.
The next day I trained, he was there training. And I was just thinking.. "wow, this guy is basically just a fat person". In person he looks worse. Unless people saw him under a barbell, 99% of them would just think that he is a useless fat fuck.

While it's true that bigger muscle =/= stronger muscle, it's also true that bigger muscle = more strength potential. Meaning that if you have lots of muscle mass and then switch from "hypertrophy" training to a strength block you'll be stronger than the other guy with less muscle mass. Nuckols discusses it in length on his website.
