/PLG/ - Powerlifting General

What's your S/B/D?

In the original Westside for Skinny Bastards, are you supposed to rotate only the big compound lift every 3 weeks or rotate every lift (including accessories) every 3 weeks?
Also, if I do max effort normal bench on the max effort upper body day, is it better to do max rep normal bench as well on repetition upper days?

Use it until you can't get a new 3rm.

>instead of posting here, isley replies to cheap bait
Yikes

then switch everything or just the big compounds?

yes, there are enough similar variations. You can also work with tempo and isometrics.

Because plg died long ago, and all that's left is zoomers and MA

I've never taken roids and have benched 330, squatted 535, and deadlifted 585, and I'm still getting stronger with basic cut and paste training cycles that anyone can find online. Nothing special, no doubt, but you don't need roids to get stronger and build muscle to a decent level.
>Blevins Skynet AI
>Juggernaut AI
Anyone tried these? I'm thinking of doing one for 6 months.

Maybe if you could squat and deadlift, plg would have lived.

>he thinks 330 is an impressive bench

>He talks shit on a 330 when he benches 275

Any non-twinks here ride bikes? I went for a comfy sunday ride in the country today and now the inside of the bottom of my glutes is super sore from sitting 100 kilos on a narrow saddle. How do you make your ass not hurt? I had never had never had this problem before but the last time I was on a bike I was 20 kg lighter.

Lose weight, or get a seat for big-assed women.

you gotta get yourself a better quality saddle.

I bench close grip only if you're referencing my post, and no I don't think it's impressive, but it's alright for the average dude.

Coping hard here bud

Coping for what buddy? I'm happy with my progress and stated that my lifts aren't anything special relative to more serious lifters.

Post lifts, have sex

Ok thank. I will buy a better quality saddle for big assed women.

I've always liked fat bitches due to my fat fetish, but the stronger and bigger I get, the bigger and fatter I want my women. There's something so sexy about having a huge fat woman that most men are too weak to lift.

Hi there
I'm 6'0", currently 280 lbs, 30% bf
Looking to get into powerlifting, should I start with a basic program like stronglifts and then move up to one of the OP programs? Should I cut first or just up protein and start lifting?

Focus on losing weight as your main goal. Eat at a deficit and do a novice program like SS but add in some extra volume for bench in the form of high rep assistance lifts. I wouldn't recommend stronglifts as I think doing 5x5 for squats and deadlifts is a waste of time and effort for novices, you'll make the same gains doing 3x5.

Cool, thanks bro.

in all seriousness, the bike saddle you use can be very important not only for butt comfort but also keeping your testicles safe. if you can, find a bike specialist store near you and ask them for help.

Don't worry my balls are safe. I learned as a kid that sitting on your balls hurts so before sitting on a bike I put a hand down my pants and pull dick and balls into the up position, so it's safe, instead of hanging normally where I'll likely sit on them.

I do juggernaut powerbuilding. 4times weekly, nice and comfy.

Is that part of the AI training?

This isn’t even benchbeta tripcode, nice try newfag

He forgot it, newfag. Lurk more.

And now a threadly, but non-spamming, non-trolling, obviously on-topic 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.

did ohp today since offday after work

cramped in vastus lateralis so hard my knees got welded shut and i almost fell
i still have soreness in both legs because of it

on the good note
i benched 115kg first time ever on sat morning.

also spoke with cute hardworking girls and it seems she likes me sort of, want to ask her snapchator maybe even ask her out
thoughts?

blog out

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

Is there anything you like?

sucking dick

Lifts done to IPF standards, single ply, actual raw/classic (not "raw" with wraps bullshit)

Who is your favorite powerlifter?

Either Blaine Sumner or Sean Noriega

Are you attracted to them, or do you just admire their skill?

Skill as well as personality. Blaine is exceptional in equipment, especially given that he's a SHW. And both of them are extremely strong willed despite numerous, potentially career ending injuries.

Unfortunately his 500kg looked to be to much deeper.

Beyond that if Ray wanted to be competitive he could move outside his federations bubble, example; John Haack

PS. Drug tested=/= Drug free, still waiting for my order of Canadian protein to show up personally

There's literally nothing wrong with roids or monolift

Sure, but there's no way that Ray would come close to the amount or doseages if he does indeed roid

There is when comparing a lifter that competes untested and doesn't have to walk out their squats and a lifter that is tested and does have to walk them out. I don't care about roids or monos otherwise unless I'm memeing

Ray Williams is on roids

Once again, not what I'm arguing. Drug tested guys can get away with much, much less than non drug tested

Ray Williams is on as much roids as everyone else. There is no reason to believe otherwise

>An athlete that has to dodge drug tests would be on as many drugs, at as high of doseages, and for as long of a period of time as a non tested athlete
Holy shit LMAO look at this brainlet

>he thinks it's hard to avoid drug tests

Yeah it's so hard that people get popped all the time. It's not just about passing the test once, in competition, it's about repeatedly passing it out of competition. That's how they got Kelly.

>Yeah it's so hard that people get popped all the time
And for those people who got popped, do you think they were clean for their entire career before getting popped?

>using training as an example
his squat was good. probably the only person i know of that can claim depth will be there meet day. dudes also had full knee reconstruction.
instagram.com/p/Br0UfSVAhsx/?igshid=15fdu4l42m2f2

No but in order to pass a test they can't be running everything they were at full blast and expect to squeeze by.

That wouldn't fly in the IPF. He didn't lock out and started to unlock his knees and then relock them before the mono went down. Depth was good though. But like I said, knee wraps (and they don't look like 2m wraps, they look like 2.5 or 3m wraps), monolift, and the likely potential of a squat bar make a huge difference.

Coached some team children (undergrads) this weekend at a meet, only a couple missed lifts and a few 9/9s, proud of em. I forget how fucking rude some dorky ass coaches are at meets when they think they're hot shit throwing calibrated plates on the floor to load a 300lbs squat and pushing people out of the way.

the lock and unlock is from taking the weight too soon. disturbing balance is easy with that amount of weight. longer wraps aren't giving you an extra hundred lbs, but the mono is a valid point. hate it as much as you want, but its impressive at his age and with his knee
>squat bar
so a bar that can handle the weight? thats not a real point since the eliko comp bars the use in your beloved ipf are basically the same thing

>No but in order to pass a test they can't be running everything they were at full blast and expect to squeeze by.

Accurate

Although honestly it sort of makes me wonder why high level usapl/ipf lifters even exist. Like why would you stress about weigh ins and testing, participate in poorly ran meets, put on by directors simply looking to line their pockets, often times with sub par equipment (at least in FL), in a federation that displays blatant favoritism? To be the best fake natty? I don't get it.

Beyond that from what I can tell there isn't a lot of money for athletes, and I was under the impression that you paid for travel and expenses yourself.

For true natty's I get it, but if you're on, why not just commit?

tl;dr. not your blog, faggot midget. ditch the trip and kys.

I'd assume that most """reputable""" companies want to sponsor """drug-free""" athletes, and coaching opportunities for people who want a coach that
is in the same fed/knows how to train natty (allegedly) are a niche that someone has to fill, and people with some roids will generally rise to fill that niche over people who never touched juice

I always look forward to your impotent rage, really spices things up around here

t. weird projecting faggot midget that nobody likes

First post on this board, didnt wanna shit the catalog for one stupid question so ill just ask here since its the only gen.

So I decided to get fit, tried not eating anything for 2 3 months but still didnt lose weight, or at least not as much as I thought I would.

Now Ive read the sticky for newbies about cardio and lifting, however I dont want to go to gyms to lift because of my own personal reasons.

Can I just swim?
Does it count as both cardio and lifting if I swim for 30 mins each day?

If you try to starve yourself your metabolism will adjust to the lower intake.

30min of swimming is a start, but unlikely to get you to the results you want. If you refuse to go to a gym, your best bet is to be black and do calisthenics in a park.

Seriously though, I can name 4 people with autism at my gym, you're not the only one breh.

Realistically if you train 5 days a week you can expect to feel better about your self in around 6 months, which will last for 3-6months, and never return.

ipf is all alot of other countries have to make it big time

Only reason why I tried statving myself is because i was skinny af in my teens and never ate anything.
Granted I did drink a lot and do drugs so that might factor in.

However i went from skeletor to skinnyfat in my early 20s went I stopped drinking as much and started eating.

I dont want to go to gym because I have noodle arms and I dont think I can even lift, even if i can it would be laughable probably.

I have very broad shoulders and all my life gymrats tell me that I would look great if I lift and how they wished they had my phyisicue, however i have noodle arms and very little strenght for lifting.

All I want to is to lose my skinnyfat beer belly and my waist dont care as much for arm muscle.

Is there an alternative to gym?
Or some "lifting" that I can do at home?

Everyone starts somewhere, and noone is where they want to be, otherwise they would stop going.

I would still suggest just going, if you're really that small noone will pay attention to you.

If you really refuse to gym, maybe pick up some bands and use them to makeshift some resistance movements.

Good luck breezy

he literally posted avengers memes on his instagram after the meet. he is a loser. a pathetic norman who is genetically blessed

Brah, just hit the gym, all lifters have their start in the prehistoric age of BC (Before curls) humble beginnings

Would you really rather be a weak autistic incel on a vietnamese magazine folding board

rather than a successful normie setting ATWR's, having fun, being popular, and banging cheeks?

Stay lonely dude

yikes, you're both smelly faggot incels.

Obviously, where do you think we are?

wrong thread pal

Hi plg,

How'd do you deal with slow progress? I went from 135Kgx1 front-Squat -> 145Kgx8 front-squat in the last 6 weeks and was wondering why this progress is slow and how I can apeed this up?

have you tried nofap?

bet this is the same guy who always posts ''is x to y in z time good progress?''

Aye. But serious why is the progress slow. Predicted 1RM increases of 45Kg in 6 weeks is snail's pace

what are your stats man

also list weight and height

>I'm 6'0", currently 280 lbs, 30% bf

yeah nah you don't have 196 lbs of muscle and an unnatural ffmi if you don't lift

you're probably closer to 50%
