/PLG/ - Powerlifting General

If you need to lift to get a gf, there's something really really wrong with you. Most people here would date someone even if they never lifted.

Damn nsuns is meme tier? I've been doing it and progressing nicely

bench press is the best gauge of RAW PHYSICAL STRENGTH. you only downplay this because you're a pudgy, weak little shit of a manlet with an equally embarrassing bench press.

nobody gives a shit that you can bounce your morbidly obese gut off of your legs for your little bullshit wide stance "squat". nobody cares about your 5 inch ROM sumo "deadlift".

bench. press. is. king.

Beat this day:

>Lift early
>Seat meager squat rep PR
>Clean up fireworks
>Organize garage
>Haul junk to dump
>Take shower
>juggle titties
>Broil salmon
>Drink beer
>Love life

How do we help them bros?

The best routine is the one you'll adhere to. So if it works for you, good.

>out drinking and getting food with my gf and friends (including Isley and MA)
>tell her we should watch Rick and Morty together at some point
>she says the only thing she knows about Rick and Morty is that "reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" is from it
>I ask Isley to explain the origin of reeee to her
>he says it's something incels do when they're upset
>I end up explaining to her what incels are
Lmfao

If you haven't lost your virginity before age 18, then you should be sectioned immediately. Can't have these psycho virgin freaks running around in polite society

>>out drinking and getting food with my gf and friends (including Isley and MA)
W-w-why didn't you invite me???

I lost mine at 19, but I could have lost it at 15. I had girls in my bed when I was 15/16, asking me to do things to them, but I didn't.

They have to help themselves

Just got a "Virgin for lyfe" tattoo above my penis. Doesn't matter though, no one will ever see it

Heck yeah we have a meetup

These guys have been my friends for years and we've finally met up. It's great. Welcome to the brave New world.

Sumo is the preferred stance of trannies because it helps them dilate

Ew gay

Do you guys have a phrase or word for those cringy iron warrior powerlifter memes?

Pretty insensitive
I might look like a piece of meat, but I've got feelings, you know?

Nice traps

Iron lyfe

Thanks, they seem to grow perfectly fine from overhead pressing

perfect. cheers.

Really? Mine refuse to grow

Because women are attracted to passion and confidence, not insecurity. Guess which pursuit predisposes someone to.

I can't really give you much advice since I just have really good traps genetics, but rack pulls ought to do it

What about the arching though?

What about a tweaked advanced 531 where instead of 5x1@95% on week 3, you do the original 5/3/1+? As a means to keep the AMRAP mechanism in there and test what your "max" progression is going like.

Here you go bro, bulking currently.

What are you guys volume and frequency on deadlift?

I do it that way, but I do 4x1@95% then amrap. It works well.

>the best looking one is the manlet on the far left, who is contorting/flexing as best as he can while trying to not make it look TOO obvious
>the other 3 just look like total shit

LMFAO. WHAT A FUCKING DISASTER.

what's the name of that strap that you put on your upper back and attaches to the sleeves of the bar so you can deadlift with no hands?

the bull

Happy birthday Chadwesleysmith!

CWS CWS!

You guys always have the cringiest OP pic. It's always some stupid quotes an 80 IQ troglodyte would think is cool.

It's always ironic. Have sex.

Unironically happy bday CHAD. Your knowledge got me stronger.

I could call myself a "Satanist" instead of just agnostic. But that's probably about it.

Threadly, but non-spamming, reminder for you unlifting user CHODEs to post body/lifts and get a trip. But only if you have at least one of
>A squat greater than 2.5x bodyweight AND 500 lbs
>A CONVENTIONAL deadlift greater than 2.5x bodyweight AND 500 lbs
>A bench press greater than 1.5x bodyweight AND 300 lbs
>A Standing The Press(ᵗᵐ) greater than 1x bodyweight AND 200 lbs
>A body fit won't think looks like shit (good fucking luck)

Otherwise, stop LARPing, stop giving "advice" like you have half a clue what you're talking about, stop posting altogether, bring your ass to the gym, and try harder.

LIST OF PLG APPROVED ACRONYMS/INITIALISMS (post, but don't spam, in every thread)

>GDE (Genetic Dead End)
Exercise low-responder. High injury rate, no sports background, weak willed.

>GAYS (Gay Aylien Skull)
Weak bone structure, mouth breather. Wastes time trying to be strong. Jewey faced and mad, but harmless.

>CUCC (Cuckold Uninjured Crying Canadian)
Identify as injured, without medical diagnosis. Trans-herniated. Purposely do self-destructive programs like PH3, Smolov, etc. They wanted an excuse to quit.

>VOLEM (Voluntary Evermediate)
Late beginner, early intermediate. Panics when the bar gets heavy. Program hops, works on technique, or sabotages recovery as an excuse to not progress.

>BONER (Bench Only No Effort Retard)
Wants to have the admiration and ego of someone who lifts, but doesn't want to get the squat or deadlift of someone who actually lifts. Copes with a combination of bench press and autism.

>CHODE (Communist Homo Of Dick Eating)
Angry, godless little postmodernists who secretly loathe strong, masculine men who won't fuck their boybutt. Some transition into ugly rat faced pedos, others defend said CHODES. Also known as PHAGs (Projecting Homo Ass Goblins)

>TCHAD (Tries Consistently Hard All Day)
The Isleys, MAs, and other guys with average genes who actually like competing and getting stronger.

>UFO (Under Fed Organism)
Adult human male weighing less than 200 lbs. Throw food at them until the problem is remedied.

>user (Anonymous Nard Obtusely Nattering)
A noodlebuilt little wuss of a human. Hobbies include LARPing as someone who actually lifts and not posting body/lifts. Can be safely disregarded in all matters.

>SUMO (SUbhuman MOron)
Too stupid and/or genetically deficient to just bend over and pick something up. Copes through a combination of clowning half reps and eating butt.

Jesus christ Izlee

Ironic how youre the 80iq troglodyte that doesnt get the irony in the quotes

If you suck long enough on Alex tit, will it start lactating?

>I call myself a Satanist instead of an agnostic
This doesn't make any sense to me. Please explain.
Do you ask satan for help before your lifts?

he was saying that Satanist would be an edgier belief than agnostic in response to le british traveller

>ywn flex with fellow internet autismos

> monday: main conventional
> thursday: two similar movements (rack pull and deficit sldl)

It's from his no holds barred judo throwdown with supermang.

lol

damn isley is fucking huge tho

>rack pull

considering an ammonia cap + hit of a vape before heavy singles. anyone have thoughts on this?

>thoughts on vaping
yeah, consider suicide

pic makes no sense, should be 'get a morning after pill for your heart'

Euro user here, thinking of buying Strength shop bastard power bar (heard good things about new iterations, that they improved design), however I've also seen that there is a german brand called ATX selling also pretty power bars like their Ram bar.

Any experiences? I wanna buy something that will last me at least a decade in my home gym.

why not put an extra 300 euros if you want it to last a decade
thats 30 euros a year

> flat bench strong
> press strong
> 45 degree incline bench is like combat to death

so whats the weakness, serratus?

Wrong thread pal

When you put it like that I could, if not for Ohio power bar going out of stock every so often in Europe, but I guess I'll wait and save up some more, I only need a good power bar + ssb to complete my home gym and maybe in future I'd like a cable crossover machine.

Similar here, always felt out of groove on 45 incline degree, every rep felt awful, lowered angle to about 20-25 degrees and movement feels comfy now.

I agree, the lowest incline possible is best

Recommend me some decent powerlifting belts in EU for 100 euro max. Doesn't have to be IPF approved just preferbly 13mm thick and 4 inch

Don't bring your mouth fedora to the gym.

theres 2 types of people I guess

Recommend me some dynamic stretches and warm up to do before deadlifting heavy.
Gonna test my 1rm today

Do what you regularly do as part of your program. Otherwise, start regularly doing agile 8

Paying more than $50 for a belt means that you're paying for the brand.

>shitty day on bench
>quit midway and just do conditioning and boxing
anyone else do this?
whenever i fail a pr i just quit right away, drop the weights and come back next day full of anger and energy

>anyone else do this?
Lots of people do that. Most people are weak, too.

I’ve been really out of it for a while.
Should I just have fun and do SS/TM/HLM memes and try hard?
Or follow BBM programming meticulously since they just dropped a new “”beginner”” template and I got it from another chan?

I can’t help but feel that the BBM stuff is really great because lots of numbers etc but maybe it doesn’t even matter it just seems like it’s overly complex but what do I know I’m weak
