Benni is such a sexy lad.

>>41894149
Not confident enough to show video of my shit lifts, but are these decent?

120 kg /264 lbs bench
190 kg / 418 lbs squat
235 kg / 518 lbs deadlift
78 kg / 171 lbs bodyweight

Been doing powerlifting 3 years, with some bodybuilding exercises on the side, but i do not know if my progress has been good.

>>41894204

Height?

>>41894204
Cut down to 74kg and you could respectably compete. I mean don't expect to place at nationals unless you're from some irrelevant country, but those are definitely nice numbers for that weight.

>>41894204
A 1200 total ain't too bad at your bw. Almost a 380 wilks if you got that in comp.

>>41894318
And if he cut down to 74kg his wilks would be 392. Didn't Isley go to worlds with a sub 400 wilks?

As long as you are a manlet that isn't too bad. You're between two classes though, you should pick one and stay at around that weight if you want to really compete.

Id say 78 is low enough for him to water cut down to 74 pretty easy lad

>>41894282
H-Hey!
I'm aiming for a gold medal and/or a national record in my class. Junior 74 kg

The national records are currently 140 kg bench, 200 kg squat, 245 kg dead, 545.5 kg total. My best squat being 190, deadlift being 235, and total being 545, i think i might be able to pull it off, if not i'll come back to this board and cry about it.

>>41894412
good luck lad. what country?

>>41894412
>those national records
You live in Belgium, or some other estrogenic country?
Not trying to shit on you since it'd be cool for one of the spergs here to medal, but it's equally revolting that some dude training for 3 years can have national records within his reach.

this post trappy chan

>>41894449
Norway.
For some weird reason, this nation produces monsters in the female classic and equipped department + equipped male department, but anyone under 83 classic is virtually unnoticeble in the powerlifting scene

>>41894339
Yes. Junior world's though. Unless you also want to use that against his EQ bench comp too.

I renew my question.

I have read convo of two advanced powerlifters speaking about not dling more than once every two or three weeks (conv or sumo). Rather than that do RDLs, rows, shrugs, pullups - all assistance stuff for them. Like you build your RDLs and check conventional on pr day

>>41894526
is your question whether you should do that to? usually advanced lifters do low freq programs because at the weight they lift its really taxing. doesnt really apply to bby weight lifters

>>41894502
How old are you, and are you in a club?

>>41894572


yea but my problem is, I can squat all I want and I wont be taxed and I can dl 1x a week hard and im like fuck me i want to die next die so tired

mfw not build to deadlift

>>41894613
I kind of feel the same, but when it comes down to it our problem is caused by under recovery and just not trying hard enough t b h

that's all i do on leg day other than some ab wheel work and some chin ups. should i add more hamstring work? i'm tired af after, but as of right now idk if my hams are getting enough focus.

>>41894700
Yea but you signed up for regionals, right? Surely you'll qualify when you pretty much have the record in the bag.

>>41894749
Signed up the minute it was announced

Stating to realize i look like shit, not sure what to do.

Im not small but i am carrying a lot of fat that makes me look like shit, and my back and chest are big compared to my arms which are 16". And due to being fat my waist has got much bigger so my v-tapers is shit.

Im 100kg 5ft11 20%bf, how can i cut without losing my gains?

>>41894777
Keep training.
Reduce calorie intake.
Adjust training volume if you aren't recovering.

>>41894777
cut 5kg over 2-2.5 months, then stay at maintenance for 1.5-2 months, then diet down another 5kg over 2-2.5 months. the trick is to break from your diet before it starts heavily affecting your recovery ability, but without regressing. the recomp phases are there to let you recover entirely and possibly make a little strength progress. once you're down to 12-13%, stay at maintenance until you're ready to lean bulk

Gentle bump with Gemma.

Anyone read anything interesting lately?

Opinions on beltless work? My new coath has me doing my accesories beltless and ive never really bought into the beltless meme.

>>41895996

It's okay here and there.

I don't like it being more than 50% of main work sets though.

>>41895947
Reading all the shahs men and killing reagan right now. Killing reagan is pretty trash tier, a lot of inaccuracies but reagan gets my dick hard so im still reading it.

>>41896008
Its like 75% right now. Im assuming its cuz im not competing for a few months, we will see how it goes. Ive never done beltless trenning before this

Best variations for raw lifters?
Should I just use the variations from RTS generalised intermediate and project momentum?

>>41897055
Double pause deadlifts are best deadlift variation by far.

>>41897100
You mean deficit deadlifts

>>41897055

The best variations are the ones that target your weaknesses.

I think for most people, it's going to be:
- paused deadlifts to help off the floor and maintaining form
- front squats for helping to stay upright and maintain posture
- some sort of bench variation focusing on the movement off the chest (spoto press, pin presses, etc.)

But, again, if your weaknesses are in a different spot, then those won't do much for you.

Most entertaining lifter to watch.
I wonder why he dropped down from the 83kg class. I think he's gonna end up lower in the rankings than last year.

Really nice weight class this. Jap guy, atwood, bakkelund, owen. Nice battles throughout the three movements.

THEY HAVE BLOCKS FOR MANLETS
this is amazing
you can't make this shit up

>>41899116
Wait, is that legal? Wouldn't that make lift for manlets much easier?

>>41899116
You didn't know?
Lifters can request blocks. Midgets like Bakkelund and Fedosienko use them because else they can barely reach the ground, some taller lifters sometimes use them if they train on lower benches and want to replicate that in competition.

>>41899127

No, you can't arch as much with your feet elevated.

His legs wouldn't reach the ground without them. He should be in the special Olympics.

Can't you just put them back more to arch as much?

Stinking kilo chaser

There's nobody to challenge Gibbslet in 83kg is there?

If Im able to go to the gym extremely irregularly. Once a week or less often and my core of physical activity is bodyweight shit, how should I approach plg training? I was thinking about simple doing squats, diddlys, ohp, bench and rows everytime I happen to drop by a gym but then again that a fuckload for a beginner probably?

>>41899248
Me in about 3 years.

>>41899265
If you have limited time in the gym and want to do powerlifting, you MUST focus on the squat, bench and deadlift. Press and rows are fine, but only secondary. Rows might not even be 100% necessary if you do a ton of pullups on your bodyweight training.

The s/b/d once a week or less should be extremely high volume in a single session, since you can't spread the volume out over the week.
E.g. 4 working sets of squats followed by an amrap, 5 sets of bench + amrap, 3 sets of dl + amrap. Just a random example, numbers aren't important, just trying to convey the concept.

>>41899109
Probably dropped because he is never beating gibbs or haack

>>41899316
But in the 83kg he might end 2nd or 3rd, in this class he'll end 4th to 6th.

File: 315squat-shoes.webm (3MB, 1920x1080px) Image search: [Google]

3MB, 1920x1080px

Can I get a form check? I posted my 315 squat last week and was told mostly to keep bar steady, go lower on my squats, keep head neutral, and I think a few people even recommended I get some shoes. I know it's not the best angle because you can't see the full movement but any advice for these squats? I am using the adipower shoes now as well. They are pretty comfy but squatting in them feels so much different. I'm not sure if that's good or bad. I feel like I'm leaning more forward in them and they are harder to move feet around for minor adjustments. Squatting just feels different in them and I'm not sure if it's something I will get used to or if my form improved/got worse?

Jesus Christ, how do you compete with this? I think he could take deadlifts in 83 as well

>>41899379
It surprises me his squat isn't way ahead of everyone else aswell. He has the midget femurs for it.

I fucking hate Bonica's commenting even more than the Australian woman (who I despise greatly).

Scottish guy + the black dude who doesn't speak english as his first language is a good combo. The saffer girl who commented yesterday was pretty good aswell.

>>41899431
That's what we want from commenters, sounds great. Those are the things people like me can't keep up with so we need the commenters to tell us those things and make it more interesting. The scottish guy is a great commenter, was disappointed he wasn't here to comment this week.

>>41899492
I had tendonitis when I first started lifting in my triceps/elbow area from benching too much and cutting too fast. I basically just took some tylenol and laid off the bench for 2-3 weeks. Shit sucks but you don't wanna fuck up your shit for even longer.

Just started watching and shit these commentators are shit

>>41899517
I'm curious. What was your bench before and after the program? I'm trying to find it atm because I'm sitting around 255 for reps and highest I've been is 275 for reps. Would love to hit 3 plates.

>>41899503
they are fucking annoying yeah

What other groups are lifting today?

>>41899577
In a nutshell if you don't hit the required number of reps in the PR testing days, you'll still get around +6 to +10lbs on your 1RM on a monthly basis.

My presses are weak as hell so that's what I did, my monrhly 1RM went up steadily by those smaller numbers. Please keep in mind that I'm not a competitive PLer so this way of progress is fine for me.

>>41899627
Women's 72kg coming up.
Later today is Men's 83kg i.e. people fighting for 2nd place behind Gibbs. Not sure when exactly. Timetable says 18:00 Minsk time but the timetable is way off already, women 72 was supposed to start over an hour ago already.

>>41899682
Alright, thanks. Who is Gibbs? /plg/ affiliated?

>>41899063
what did /ourtwinklad/ hit? also pretty shitty that he dropped a weight class. whats the point of competing if your putting up a smaller total

>>41899736
point of competing is to win, total doesn't matter.

>>41899752
isnt he less competitive in his new class tho? going from being a 200kg+ bencher to a ~180kg is shitty even if you win anyway

>>41899693
No, no /plg/ affiliation. The only international tier lifters linked in some form to /plg/ are Bodorio, Isley, Virtus, Kbooey and wilksguy, but none of them are close to the top spots. Gibbs is a lifter from New Zealand with a lot of potential but so far he hasn't been able to bring his best to important meets, always performing much worse than his best gym lifts e.g. benching 205kg when he does a double with 210 in the gym, squatting 277.5kg at last year's worlds when he hit 300 in the gym before. Last year he got second place after John Haack in an intense battle, this year Haack isn't competing so Gibbs is easily gonna take first place.

>>41899736
Scoreboard already shows women's and scoresheet hasn't been updated yet. I thought he hit around 235/190/265? He ended 4th or 5th iirc.

>>41899819
Alright, looking forward to watching it

>>41899290
Allright mate, thanks a lot. Will work on that idea.

What is going on, i began eating at 2500 kcal a day and slowly been upping to 3100kcal.

I have gained no weight since upping, and lost no weight either can your metabolism adapt to food increase?

I am aiming to recomp at the moment but im suprised i am not getting fat on this amount of calories, usually i gain weight very easily.

This has been over a 3 month period, i am 98-100kg.

>>41899949
weight gain/loss isnt linear my friend. You'll be suprised to see that one day you might gain a lot of weight out of no where

>>41899949
yes, your metabolism can adapt to food intake increases and decreases

this is caused primarily by something called NEAT (non exercise activity thermogenesis), you can look this up for further details

essentially, if you have notice that adding/subtracting calories results in less weight gain/loss than expected, this is probably why (unless you suck at tracking your calories)

>>41899975
>>41899975


If anything i am eating more, i eat 3000kcal counted then i have a snack or eat fruit on top.

I have a very different weekly activity too, i work 12 hour shifts some times 5 in a week and sometimes have 7+ days of at a time i wonder if that plays a role in it since its not consistent.


Thanks for help btw x

My only gripe is the insane arches allowing literally 1 inch rom. Normal arching is fine, but those very bigest ones, they're just stupid.

I guess lifting in general disadvantages long people, but long people are still the strongest so there's more to it.

I assume youre referencing to the SHW's

height is a disadvantage yes, but you can overcome it by gaining weight. Besides that the best arent really that tall tb h. Ray williams is 5'11, kiril is 6'2. Even eddie is 6'2. Pretty short compared to their competitiors

Talking about super heavy weight yes. Maybe they're not super tall, but they are on the tall end of average at the very least, got that big body to put all that mass on.

How do I into Brad Gillingham mode? He's my goal as a tallfag kek.

>>41900545
whats the best height for powerlifting?

>>41900604
below the average height in the weightclass you want to compete in

>>41900559
i have to side with that anon, senpai.

>>41900597
isabella's quite hot yes

>>41900612
true dat
midget mode is best powerlift mode
dont have to worry about your body weight being used up by useless stuff like bones and organs, can go for full fat and muscle

>>41900588
Google tells me I was mistaken, he's 6'6.

Anyway total height is barely relevant, relative limb length is much more important. E.g. wierzbiscuit being a lanky deadlift freak.

>>41900626
>>41900597
hope isabella does well in the deadlift event so we can see more of her on the podium!

>>41900600
eat, sleep, train, repeat
maybe cycle too, depending on how fast you want it

>>41900710
Nothing new then.

I always wondered, as someone who's going 120/120+ what kind of training frequency do people in that category use. Once a week or is that just a meme?

>>41900782
Lower frequency than lighter weight class lifters. But doesn't have to be, e.g. Mike T and Bryce Krawczyk both use high frequency training.

Is that a piss puddle on the platform?

>>41894149
Not really powerlifting but I think you guys could give me some pointers

>be 74 inches tall
>femurs are 23 inches long (around 31% of my total height)
>I cant squat for shit
>Either feel like I will fall backwards
>Lean forward to compensate for falling backwards

What the fuck can I do so I can squat with some semblance of meaning? Every time I workout squats my muscles never feel fatigued because my issues always result from from problems.

>>41900899
Look up layne norton or krystoph weirzbicki both have super long femurs and squat like pancakes.

>>41900885
i wonder wtf that is tooo

>>41900899
1. lower the weight
2. put weight on midfoot and not on heels
3. break at the knees first
4. stop doing semi goodmornings, squat relatively upright
5. watch this vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrwiddA_8CQ
>>41900905
terrible advice those guys do goodmornings plus layne norton got several herniated discs because of it. Semi goodmornings wont give him developed quads

>>41900899
Either
1) lots of torso lean, get a really strong posterior chain
Or
2) lots of forward knee travel to keep torso more vertical, get super strong imbalanced quads and keep knees forward when coming out of the hole

Both styles work

>>41900938
>imbalanced quads
not an issue if he does regular deadlifts

>>41900957
I mean: get your quads so strong that even if your body wants to shift the weight to your posterior chain (which is usually the stronger muscle groups), you can still keep your knees forward and grind through your sticking point with primarily your quads. For people with longer femurs, this is harder than it sounds

>t. 29.2% femur

Walford wins -72kg open, Ana second and Isabella third.

Any Swedes here can comment on how to pronounce Isabella's last name? Bryce Lewis said it's pronounced Weisenberry but everyone says -Berg which seems right to me.

>>41901012
its berg, but pronounced bærg

>>41901012
If her name ends in -berg it is pronounced berg, not berry.

>>41900992
if you drop the weight and enforce the right technique and build up slowly there wont be an issue stop looking for excuses

>>41900917
I do all of these problems even with just the bar. My top 3 fuckups are

>leaning forward
>right heel coming off the ground
>right knee moving inward

I have had no injury to my right knee or ankle its just something I do because I will fall backwards if I dont.

>>41901038
its because you put the weight on your heels at first and as you go down you start leaning more forward which shifts the weight towards your toes

Its a very common problem. What you need to do is drop the weight stay on midfoot through the entire motion and stop leaning forward. Basicly watch that vid I linked it covers everything

-83s are 6pm Belarus time.

>>41901185
1inch off ground then, IF hips shooting up happens after bar leaves the ground. If it happens before, then pause deadlifts will not fix the movement pattern.

>>41901012
In Norway, we'd usually say "bærg", but I think Swedes would say "berj", like in Liseberg: https://youtu.be/Q2hjkeW4hZI (@ 0:09).

Don't Norwegians often pronounce "g" like "j"? At least according to Duolingo, e.g. "hyggelig" is pronounced "hugeli-j" (I seperate the i and j to avoid confusion because in my language "ij" is a seperate sound)

>>41901264
Not really, depends on dialect as well.

I feel like shit, I think I'm gonna need some new songs for my workout tonight. Got any good ones?

>>41901124
No they don't, the worst company I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with, they sent me the completely wrong sized belt (Small) when I ordered XL and never responded to my emails regarding an exchange for the actual size I ordered.

>>41901238
>>41901201
>>41901199
is 93kg the best class to watch?

>>41901264
>"g" like "j"
Yes, often, but it's very dependent on the person's dialect. And since we also have "bokmål" and "nynorsk" (former based on Danish, latter based on a plethora of dialects in the 19th century; Ivar Aasen made it), where bokmål is mostly g and nynorsk is motsly j (in some words at least, like ferry (ferge, ferje)), it really depends on the person.

I don't think Norwegians pronounce "hyggelig" as "hyggeli-j", but straight-forward "hyggeli".

Dutch?

>>41901290
You shouldn't miss 105s.

>>41901290
No, 105 will be the best to watch
Biscuit v Screamer v Blessings v Bryce

>>41901264
>>41901270
To add to my statement, us norwegians don't know what vowel reduction is, so in the case of "hyggelig" we think og the last G as not being pronounced rather than it being reduced.

>>41901288
are you sure it's the same co.?
they dont have S/XL etc sizes. you give them your measure in inches and build the belt around it.

>>41901290
105 will be interesting for medals, Wierz will win and deadlift WR.

>>41901298
I thought bokmal and nynorsk were writing systems, are they spoken dialect (or rather: groupings of dialects) as well?

Yes, Dutch (Flemish)

Also: Bergen dialect sounds disgusting.

>>41901314
>>41901299
>>41901298
is 105kg usually the 6ft++ class?

>>41901314
He will win likely. I just hope he - finally - gets popped afterwards. It's soooo obvious he's juicing.

>>41901328
No, 105 is about 5'9-6'1. 6'+ is either 120 or 120+kg

>>41901332
arent the roids check random?

>>41901339
Screamer and Bryce are like 5'6 or something, Wierz and Blessings are taller.

>>41901319
Written languages only, but some idiots make an effort to speak like them and some dialects naturally sound a bit like they try to speak the written language.

>>41901352
Sort of. If you finish second to last, they probably won't bother. But medalists and especially lifters breaking WRs have a much higher chance of being tested.

>>41901358
Those two are very much the exception though. Average height in the 74kg class is not 5'2, even if Kjel is a midget.

>>41901319
>Also: Bergen dialect sounds disgusting.
Fucking agreed. [spoiler]it's too similar to Dutch with the guttural r-sound[/spoiler]. Stavanger too, really.
>writing systems
You're absolutely correct and I didn't consider that. There are parts of the country that speak close to nynorsk, and parts of the country that speak close to bokmål, but nynorsk and bokmål are writing systems. The Oslo-area has dialects closest to bokmål, Sunnmore is the only area close to nynorsk.

So the only place you'll find the j in "ferge" is the West and Northwest coast, and I think all other parts say g. I'm far from certain about that, tho.

>>41901382
Powerlifting is a bit of a manlet sport at the top level across all divisions really. Even Trennis Cornelius is tiny in 120

Why does Brett keep missing weights in comp that he hit relatively easily in training?

>>41902212
off cycle or comp nerves

>>41902212

>>41902212
He missed 300 on depth. His 302,5 also looks borderline.

>>41902234
>>41902248
Can the 2hr weigh in fuck him up too?

>>41902249
Oh ok. Stream was frozen, I figured he just couldn't get it up.

>>41902276
Look for "farmerstrength" on insta, he has Bretts first and third attempts in his story.

>>41902248
>>41902234
Not sure if memeing but he's tested out of comp, if you think that someone would/can beat WADA using tren/cheap PEDs then you're delusional. The people who dope in the olympics/high level sports have to pay hundreds of thousands if not millions to attempt to get away with it.

no they dont. sorry to brake it to you, but many top IPF guys are on. not saying everyone, but its not as hard as you think and his performance dip suggests it pretty strongly

>>41902343
>>41902360
he's getting so many more followers now because of this just refresh the page every minute lol

>>41902331
oh yeah I bet hes randomly tested multiple times a month off comp. Protip: he isnt

any planned test is a test any roider would pass

>>41902370
It's a billion dollar industry and sports/feds with a lot more money in them than powerlifting / NZPL get caught all the time. People get caught in TDF, using a lot better operations then Brett would have pinning in his bathroom. Go read that the extent/cost Armstrong had to go to to beat WADA.

working stream link, you have to copy and paste it into separate browsers, embedded here wont work

watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

>>41902397
This is because Armstrong was quite literally tested over 200 times while Brett is tested maybe once a year and he's allowed to "miss" the tester 3 times before getting pinged

>>41902397
I don't think that Gibbs is on but there have been people passing tests and setting records when they were clearly on. Fedosienko for example was banned two years in the -00s but now he's stronger and tests negative. Yuri Belkin tested positive in -15 but he was probably using in -14 and the years before that too. Some guys manage to beat the tests despite good efforts from WADA.

no its not a billion dollar industry. no one in powerlifting makes money, not even officials. the whole thing is alot lower stakes than you think. armstrong was competing in a widely recognised, non-meme sport that actually has money in it. his doping was on national news. thats not going to happen is ray, brett or weirzbeki gets popped is it? NZPL lets un-important lifters get popped, theyre not going to let their literal best lifter get caught tho

>>41902410
I recognize that link you piece of shit

>>41902430
>The report also suggested that many of the UCI-sanctioned doping controls were blood samples taken to test for hematocrit levels in health screenings or as part of the biological passport, and were not necessarily tested for the presence of banned substances. USADA also cited quotations from former UCI president Hein Verbruggen and current UCI president Pat McQuaid, whom both repeated the “500-600” number in references to the number of times Armstrong was tested during his career. McQuaid, however, clarified that statement in September when he confirmed that the UCI had counted the number of controls it conducted on Armstrong at 215.

So he wasn't even tested for drugs 215 times in 18 years and had to spend more than Brett Gibbs will earn in 5 lifetimes to beat them.

Someone asked for my hottest meme at the discord chat, but then probably got kicked cause right now I saw the message after all the time. Even thought that would be me with my shitty ass lifts and physique take pic related instead. It is the embodiment of plg probably.

Guys why is my physique look like jason blahas? Did I just fall into the powerbuilding meme?

Quick question about diddy for reps. I'm doing nuckols right now and on my 10rm, is it better/okay to reset every rep or is it better to just keep going(not tng but just not fully resetting)?

Not everybody has the bone structure and genetics of a gay porn star

So you'll either have to get over it or just take your place as a top instead of a bottom

As a society we need to cut down on meat intake. I'm not against meat completely but for land usage reasons we need to cut back.
Basically I'm going 90% vegetarian but if I'm out with friends or family I'm not going to be a winy cunt about vegetarian options.

>>41903439
lol watch the kazakh get popped 2 months later and gibbs get gold

but gibbs hasnt stepped on the podium in first for the last 3years lol

>>41903445

>>41903452
When's the last time you've ever been on a podium

>>41903449
I get that.
I'm similar in the sense that I almost entirely eat chicken and seafood. The only beef I still consume either comes from Taco Bell or Pacific Gold jerky I buy from Costco.
My gf says I'm a "reduce-itarian"

Gibbs came second in a 1 man division hahahah

I like that. Might take it. I only ate chicken previously just because that was cheap. Beef is so expensive.
So far I've noticed I spend less on groceries than I did when I was eating meat. Other than that no real changes yet.

You should be lowering it in roughly the same way you brought it up and shouldn't need to do a full-on redo of your setup every rep, but yes, start every rep in a proper position. Sets of ten aren't about top end strength, they're for practicing your technique and building some muscle.

Of course, where else is Gaston getting his whoremoney if not through bribes?

I go turbo poofag mode for meat.
If I'm cooking at home then my dinners are either steamed rice or pastaroni with a can of great value chicken breast. If you drain the water out and heat it up in a pan with something it kills the canned taste, but if I'm feeling especially repulsed by canned chicken I'll throw it in the pan with some chopped ginger in addition to the sauce I would use. Ginger is overpowering enough that I never taste the canned taste.

This sounds awful senpai. I've had canned chicken once and I'll never venture there again.
Walmart has chicken breast for like $2 a lb senpai. Throw in a 5lb bag of potatoes for like $3 and there's a meal for like 2.75 each

>>41903619
Definitely sounds better but my home situation won't allow it atm.
I'm living in my gf's bedroom in an apartment with 2 other girls, and I have no fridge space so I can only cook what I can eat immediately.
Soon I'll go all out with prep and leftovers once I get my new place with my gf.
