what it's like being such embarrassing, weak little faggots? you look like shit, you (might) do some totally useless bar bouncing instead of actually lifting weights and everybody thinks you're a bunch of pompous shit stains since EVERY crossfit dumb fuck fits that bill.
Just curious bros, if you guys had a week FS comparative to your BS, how long did it take for your FS to catch up? My BS is 160kg, my FS is 110kg. Doing the RSR for my FS, hoping to hit 140 in a couple of months.
Tyler Jenkins
Swear I see this bait every owg, are the breaks between your powerlifting training sets so long you have time to constantly f5 the catalog to wait for a fresh owg?
Jeremiah Hall
FS is quite dependant on how strong your upper back is in order to keep a good bar position over your midfoot. That could be limiting you so either pause FS or SSB squats if you have a SSB available would help
Justin Brooks
What’s the best bang-for-your-buck ab exercise I should use (or work towards to do, assuming I can’t)? My anterior chain sucks.
Luke Hill
Front Rack Holds.
Lincoln Russell
dragon flags, ab wheel rollouts and landmines for obliques. for ab wheels, contract the abs, tuck the tail bone, dont arch your back, relax hip flexors. when going up again, pull yourself up with the abs instead of pressing with the arms. bit hard to describe, but you'll feel an intense burn in your core if you do it like this. do your ab workout between your main lift sets, you save time and build work capacity this way.
Parker Peterson
Drop your back squat and do more reps so your front squat has time to catch up, do doubles for fs
Probably more accessible, less need for a coach. Involves lifts that most people do anyway for bodybuilding/strength purposes. Think how often you see people S/B/D compared to snatch/c&j
Evan Hughes
Yes they are
Jaxon Foster
first, you're not mantaining and upright position, you're basically deadlifting the bar in oppose to pulling it, which also means you're not keeping your chest UP enough
Brody Baker
me again, see how you're banging the bar against your body instead of proper pulling and extending? keep your chest up during the pulling phase, then extend.
If you keep pushing the bar like that instead of properly extending the bar gonna end in front of you and you gonna fail just like in the video
Carson Green
I’ll give it a shot next time, it’s p cool how eveything feels smoother from week to week.
Ayden Hernandez
oh shit that tall girl from the /shg/ threads
Kayden Edwards
give it a week
Xavier Powell
Thanks man, are you push press bro btw?
Justin King
emergency bump
Anthony Nelson
nah, i am on extension though--watch how these kids are using their legs: youtube.com/watch?v=THN5Y3heKug doesn't matter what lift, snatch, clean, or jerk legs are extended powefully and fully all three joints, ankle, knee, hip the movement is fast, but it's complete, every time in between sets just practice this, without the bar. keep your lower back tight, dip your legs, and extend. feel everything tight and working. hold that, repeat that, ingrain that feeling. then aim for that same feeling in your lifts.
I understand that the bar makes contact with my thighs just under my balls but where do I start the pull from? If I start when the bar is around my balls my legs are almost fully extended and I don't have any power.
power comes from triple extending the traps hips and calves. triple extension can happen with legs nearly fully extended
Connor Reyes
nice wide-grip-forward-swing-stand and pronated-jumping-cheat-curl + spastic-lunge numbers.
Ayden Richardson
behold the mongoloid that is the powerlifter more like: too impatient, dumb, and uncordinated to practice technique and explosive type lifting, instead do the same bro lifts you always do, but with people watching and call it a sport. also: most people (klokov to note) says bounce from bar assistance doesnt really factor in until 180kg or more, can you oly lift that much? then stfu mongoloid
Stupid question, but when people refer to lifting 2 plate, 3 plate, etc. are they referring to lbs or kgs?
Tyler Lopez
2 plate is 2 plate m8
Joseph Gomez
Is it weird if my balls always make contact with the bar when going up?
Parker Parker
Yes. You'll be infertile soon enough
John Torres
goddamn cowgirl thread contact happens wherever it happens, don't aim for a specific spot on your thigh explosive phase similarly begins where it begins to get a feel for it, take up the bar in a clean grip, stand up, then, keeping lower back tight and arms relaxed, crouch like you're getting ready to jump--this is where you explode from pull from the floor to here, in a straight line, and then extend as hard as you can
Brody Martin
Yeah, you definitely "caught" the bar with it just a bit in front of your shoulders, which doomed your attempted to hold it overhead.
>I understand that the bar makes contact with my thighs just under my balls
This likely isn't the case. Or shouldn't be. Unless you have STUPIDLY short arms, contact on your thigh for cleans will be considerably lower. I, for one, have the arms of Slenderman and my point of contact is closer to my knee than my hip.
Does his chest seem up to you? Does he seem upright during the pull?
It appears his back actually gets slightly more horizontal as the bar reaches knee level. He is staying "over" the bar for a long time, because you don't pull olympic lifts (or any other pull) with your knees, but with hip extension.
Josiah Cook
Typically people are referring to 2 plate as two 45lb plates on either side
Ian Hill
The "X-PLAYT" refers to the number of 45 lbs plates on either side of the bar. This leads to fun jokes about some bantamweight only deadlifting "LMAO3PLAYT" when they're using the 25 kg (55 lbs) competition plates.
If you want the "PLAET" equivalent in kgs, use the 20 kg plates, they're a pound lighter than the 45 lbs plates, but it's close enough.
But if you wanna be a super strong triple WOWOW badass, get PLAYTS with the 25 kg plates.
Levi Ward
i nearly dislocated my shoulder trying to squat jerk 100kg which is like 80% of my max clean and split jerk. how does he do it bros.
not that guy pull from floor past knee is all quads, all knee extension angle of back and hip should stay fairly constant, maybe slight opening at the hip chest should be 'open', but not exaggerated obviously the explosive phase involves hip extension, but that's where it starts and ends
Lincoln Garcia
>PLAYT >PLAET Not sure if newfag or reddit. Either way, I'm filtering your tripcode
Kayden Wright
Oi
Daniel Martin
You're all weak autistic larpers
Owen Bennett
You're the newfag. Wacky PLAET shit has been on Jow Forums since at least 2011.
Looks more like at least 120 to me. The plates are red.
Brody Mitchell
Almost got digits
Wyatt Brown
What i mean by chest up is that you don't deadlift the bar during the pulling phase, and by pulling i obviously don't mean exactly pulling because you're using mostly your quads and posterior chain
The dude is obviously deadlifting because he moves the bar first with the hips and not the whole body, he's not exactly activating his quads, and when he does that the bar gets farther from his hips and when he extend his hips are basically travelling more and baging on the bar, which means during the second pull the bar goes up but slight forward, and that's why he's failing the catch, because the bar moves forward more than it should. By lifting with his chest open, he's using his quads and the bar is pulled closer to his hips, so when he extend he's not banging the bar like in the video
Dylan Jackson
he needs to keep his ass down in the first pull, back angle shouldn't change from the setup to when you got the bar over knees
Easton Garcia
Exactly, he's moving his ass up, a cue to fix this is maintaining open chest
Xavier Moore
Why the fuck can I go heavier in power variations than in the full lifts? what the fuck
Luke Peterson
>rebeka puts a poll up on insta to see if we think she should change back her hair color to the blondeish color >like 70% of us said no >she does it anyways
Really makes you think
Parker Murphy
You could have confidence,mobility, technique or positional issues or a mix of all or some of them
Good luck
Alexander Rivera
Mobility and Stability maybe?? Your body probably don't feel comfortable enough to do the full movement, maybe reducing the weight and focusing in squat cleans and squat snatches instead of the power variation until you feel comfortable doing it
Jace Green
yes
Jaxon Garcia
Cheers boys
Luke Watson
Plain and simple: Bad form.
Daniel Johnson
>yoy have to focus on mobility and form Yeah ok... >but never do more than 3 reps
HELP
Wyatt Gomez
what's the problem
Adam Rodriguez
How can i work on form when it is impossible to do this shit slowly, nor can u repeat reps much more than 3 times. Unless i take hours in the gym at once doing the same thing.
Jacob Lee
I improved my tech with just EMOM singles with the bar for like a half an hour. Form tends to get worse if you go for higher rep sets, so doing like 20x1 is better than 4x5. Mobility: just stretch and warmup before lifting getting lots of first reps is important, cuz in the competition you only get one rep too.
Jordan Flores
God rebeka is so good
Connor Cook
Just hit 110kg bench. Is this any good for weightlifting
Logan Ward
not really
Charles Lewis
Yes. You're probably exaggerating by pushing your hips forward aggressively. You don't fuck the bar. You should extend and the bar being close to your body is what will cause contact.
Jaxson Martinez
At what point does the lift deteriorate into a power lift?
Connor Ward
try not being a faggot
William Gutierrez
what? snatch/clean is a power if you catch it high enough...
