Powerlifting General: Reconsidering Your Life Choices Edition.
For the discussion of training the squat, bench and deadlift for the purpose of building a better competitive total. Or just for funsies.
Please check your tisms at the door and remember to try your hardest.
That depth
Anyway, my squats today. These hurt a lot. Every set I had to count how many I had left.
Did some impromptu running and now I cant lift my foot anymore.
Like, I literally can't lift my foot back
???????
Bench was okay I guess.
>forget webm
hi is my first day here
Congratulations on figuring out what an unathletic gde you are.
guys how to fix weak glutes in a functional way? it hinders my squat and gives me weak posture.
cant even clean properly
And the best for last
Double at 300kg @7.5
COMFY
I can do a 3 minute mile at 180kg bodyweight ????
>>guys how to fix weak glutes in a functional way? it hinders my squat and gives me weak posture.
>100 dumbbell squats per session, increasing the weight of the dumbbell each session until you run out of dumbbells.
>Take the squat as deep as you can. If you are doing a hundred reps with a 150 lb dumbbell, I guarantee your core, upper back, quads, glutes, and even your biceps are going to be much better off than they were before. Your squat mobility will be top-notch too.
Reposting from last thread:
There was a study about it causing bad patellar tendon tracking, and therefore damage, but I don't think the sample size was up to snuff, among other things. journals.lww.com
anyone else starts to be light headed after the DLs on SS?
Squats went smooth but Holy shit after the 5th rep I started to see in black and white. And I only did 1plate. How to prevent this fellas
is the pause important to increase strength? I just touch and go
Nah I had the tendinitis from the training cycle leading up to the British and haven't let myself recover since. Very stupid of me honestly. The culprit was squatting 3x a week.
Why discord plg turned into polish general?
You pause in competition so it makes sense to train that way.
One of the variations I do often is long pause bench, anywhere from 2 to 5 seconds depending. But yeah it's good for strength even if you don't compete. Teaches you the importance of being tight the whole way through.
Breathe out, numb nuts
holy fucking michelin man
yeah and powerlifting is cool and totally worthwhile LOL
Cause discord is for weebs and 3rd worlders
HAHA LOL
I did my man, maybe I need to get used to squat+DLs on the same day. I might increase the rest inbetween exercice by 5 to 10mns
cardio, if my heart-rate starts racing and i do heavy weight then im kill
I DO NOT
>45660473
yea, tottally grab a coffee, grab a smoke, fuck some girl, than comeback and do another set
as in goblet squat eh?
and thanks for the rooting vid tips. i'll look into it.
she shut him down FOREVER
What this the Disrespectful Meme thing Raj did?
You probably have no base cardiovascular fitness at all.
Is this another case of sedentary video game nerd decides to get big and strong and then cry babies about not being able to move their bodies correctly without having a stroke?
you pinning bruh?
How do I spell illiase
Iliase
Iliiase
How do u spell this shit
No. A real life friend of mine.
He asked her out twice in two minutes where we were chatting as a group and she was like
>okay can we just sort this out now, please stop asking me out I'm never going to say yes.
Absolutely ded. Even he was laughing.
>>>guys how to fix weak glutes in a functional way? it hinders my squat and gives me weak posture.
Do bodyweight glute bridge raises. Get your legs as wide as possible without hyper extending your back. Do sets of 50-100 reps.
>as in goblet squat eh?
Yes. It's basically a front squat that you can sustain for really high reps.
The only gear I use is sold by titan or SBD if that's what you mean.
you dont ike inzer uhhh?
You deadlifted gud bruh. Whats your weight around these days?
I'm a good friend of Cameron, I know your dirty secret ;)
HAHA 3 minute mile
Fucking hate them. I've tried their TRX suit and it was shit. I've tried their wraps and I didn't like them but they're not bad. Their belts are probably on a par with titan but the sbd belt is the best.
103kg
What would that be? That I don't hate him?
Im not complaining Im asking if its "normal", pls no bully senpai
what about hiptrust though?
i see. cheers bro
Isley what was your height again? I tought you're around mine but Im 104kg twink, and you are a big boi
How is it giving you weak posture?
you got posterior/anterior pelvic tilt?
If yes just fix it by simple exercices findable on our lord and savior jeff cavaliere/be aware of your posture when you sitting down and youll be gud.
Correcting mine atm and after 3days shits improving well
Is that rise in your back after youve hip draved in the second rep good form? I found myself doing that when is stsrted squatting and didn't know if it was good or not. It doesn't hurt my back or anything, it just seemed not right. I also seemed to end up on my toes.
I took a break from lifting for 1 month. Old maxes were 515, 505, 295. First time back in the gym I squat 385x5x2 and benched 225x4x2 and I want to die. Especially my hip flexors.
What is the fucking point if I i degrade this much in just 1 month? Seriously thinking of suicide btw
I didn't say it was, just was replying to fatmess's thing knee wraps being bad. Are you gonna run a wilks cycle between yaro cycles to recover or do you think you can do so with yaro's programming
ITT "power lifters" with no gfs kek get a life brainlets
>295
pls be ohp
>jeff cavaliere
yeah anterior pelvic tilt.
But also weak glutes in general. hips too. weak hips are due to weak glutes though.
>Tfw comfy PL gf
No
182cm
Unsure desu
Give me one month tops.
is she thick? send pics pls
This is text-book example of projection. You see this user who has zero idea about people here decided to insult them. In order to do that he subconsciously picked something he would consider an insult and the only way he would consider something an insult is if he would've feel insulted by it.
Tfw training through a wrist injury
is this shaved rippetoe?
F
RIP your snatch
No, I'm a weak bitch from the chest up
>so fucking mad at a throwaway shit post that he felt the need to defend himself
Thx.
again, projecting in the same way.
You shouldn't have gone down that much that fast. It will probably come back real quick anyway. Don't worry user. I had to take 2 years off from broken bones and a torn tendon. I jumped on SS and got 95% of my weight back in 6 months.
DEAR LORD MY ORBITS
lmfao
She is, and no
I would say you're just weak, that's why you lost all that "strength"
so you're still tall for 105kg but big
>tfw nice weather for a comfy rest day
I think I'ma do some SSB squats tomorrow.
i find scott hermans video better.
youtube.com
basicly, stretch lower back, quads and hips first. then do bodyweight lunges, glutebridges were you squeeze glutes inward as much as you can, and plank with inward squeeze glutes.
I hab her ig but Im gonna stay loyal to my fat and not so bright friend
I won't know how much I went down till I actually test in a few months, but like normally my squat warm up hits about 450 for 3, meanwhile my hip flexor was KILLING me at 385 for 5. Plus I was just completely gassed out embarrassingly early. It's just so fucking depressing to feel so fucking weak and pathetic after only 1 month off
Thank you pole friend
tfw did some rdls, and it was hard as shit and its fvolume day
i think i went overboard with percentages broskis

You're not very pleasant to look at
what do you do for glutes? nordic hamstrings? good mornings?
I just deadlift I ain't gay nigga
i didn't ask you.
Yeah biggish. Better than hungry skelly mode at 93kg
They have their place. Why are you doing them?
That does look like a squat. Good work.
assistance lift for my sumo diddly
i feel like they dont murder my lower back as much as just hitting conv deadlift reps, yet do all the work on posterior chain.
last 3 weeks ive been fkin with pin presses
my comp bench actually has regressed. Pin presses fked up my technique everything feels off now
I should go back to floor pressing not sure why i stopped doing that i was progressing hard during that time
Why do conventional deadlifts murder your lower back?
Anyway, I'd generally want a technical reason to do an assistance lift but that's not a terrible reason.
You literally did
Odds I get pizza
Evens I don't
I get 1 free reroll
Free reroll
>inb4 you order pizza anyway
Thanks fampai
Pizza is so low calorie to volume I don't even bother anymore.
I feel strange in my lower back, not pain, just doms from monday, and quite strange feelings now, like a warm masage, it strange Im worrying.
how to find if it is a snap warning or just my weak lower back starting to work
youre looser than a pool noodle
9 is an odd number if I know my maths
im not sure if its my setup / technique for conv deadlift or just my mechanics.
I used to do plenty of pulls with mixed grip, but ive felt like im developing some imbalance, like i could feel my lumbar on left side (maybe si joint idk) get achey.
Since i started doing exclusively hook grip and regular double over hand it got much better, but i think i still have some left / right leg imbalance, might be because i had ankle injury loooong time ago.
For example my left hip flexor is always achey / tight after squatting, never right one, and when i used to do running for cardio my right hip hurt.
Any cues to suggest? I'm packing my neck and shoving elbows forward, and those seemed to help a good bit too.
Yeah nearly everyone is asymmetrical. It's not a big deal typically. And it's not caused by fucking mixed grip. I hate this hook grip meme.
Anyway, you should take the RDL out of a rack rather than the floor.
This is the crab bucket of crab buckets, you're doing just fine AND you're wearing a belt, don't listen to these retards. Everyone likes to act like they're Rip himself on here, most people don't know shit about anything.
