/plg/ powerlifting general

How is 200mg more than 250? user is a moron.
I'm also around 25kg lighter than GB. I can't imagine how it us to be 100kg + in Bodyweight, besides it probably sucking.
I'm dropping down to 84kg anyway at the moment. Trying to hit 10x bw in February

Twice a week, once is comp the other is a variant

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.

I live in worst korea.

depends on height. last time i was under 100kg was before highschool. Im 300 now, and im starting to feel it doing activities. 250 felt great running, hiking, or riding enduro trails

How you guys been? I've been super busy lately since I got a big promotion at work a couple months ago and have a pretty serious gf now. Just did a meet over the weekend with strong Alex and MA. It was a pretty good time.

Pls be ohp

Does anyone have any actual proof of "hank's" existence in plg and that that's him posting? Or is it still just one or two faggots trying to force a meme?

Threadly, but non-spamming, clearly relevant, specifically on topic, greatly informative, not copy/pasted (I change some wording each time), 100% sincere and not trolling, high quality, and otherwise rule abiding reminder for you unlifting user CHODEs to post body/lifts and get a trip. This is the only way anyone will believe anything you have to say about anything. And only if you demonstrate at least one of the following:
>A squat in excess of both 2.5 times bodyweight AND 500 lbs
>A deadlift in excess of both 2.5 time bodyweight AND 500 lbs
>A bench press in excess of both 1.5 times bodyweight AND 300 lbs
>A The Press equal to or greater than both body weight AND 100 kg
>A body that Jow Forums won't roundly criticize (good fucking luck)
If you can't manage at least one of these, shut the fuck up, go to the gym, try harder.

Thank you.

Sorry, it was bench.

we're all good bro, it's weird all the old tripfags are returning, gbro is about and norsefat has returned

Does it really matter at this point?

Oak says untested is becoming a joke with the the bs judging at boss of bosses. is he right?

Untested is a joke, so is the judging in all feds.

i thought judging wasn't bad at ipf worlds

>proof of "hank's" existence in plg
Hank is just one of Sean's characters

Ask either for:.

Anybody set any PRs?

Not happy about depth on squat, but whatever

you really are obsessed with someone you have absolutely no proof even exists. i genuinely don't know whether to laugh or feel bad that such a wretched creature actually exists. feel free to prove me wrong by posting proof, but we both know you don't have it, which makes this whole obsession of yours even more sad.

>Not happy about depth on squat, but whatever
yea was an inch high

2x

Once conventional and 2 inch deficit dl second session. All for 8 reps since it's hypertrophy cycle.

Sup bros, just hit a 155kg front squat, at 99kg bw. Do I get props?

Pretty good all in all apart from this Bench spammer. We have Norsefat back.

wrong thread

Stop doing that to people/being irittating, plg emcopasses also movements that can be used to assist main stuff.

>sup bros i hit a 155kg front squat give me validation
that is literally the wrong thread

go get your ego stroked somewhere else we talk about powerlifting here

No it isn't, front squat is close enough to deserve validation.

You should be squatting that at 75

How much do you FS?

2 times per week. One heavy one light

Is pressing better than benching?

>cant imagine what it feels like to be 100+

Feels pretty good when you get fitter and switch to a sport where you're constantly running and sprinting.

Powerlifting leaves you ill equipped to deal with stairs or short walks without feeling breathless.

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 press.

nobody gives a shit that you can bounce the bar off your morbidly obese gut for your bullshit arched back "bench press". nobody cares about your 5 inch ROM.

press. is. king.

benching IS pressing you stupid fuck.

I'm talking the THE Press

My cardiovascular capabilities have never suffered much due to nearly walking everywhere and obviously doing other things than powerlifting. But at my heaviest at 95kg I felt a bit shit.

Im nearly 120 now and far more comfortable than i was at 100, more mobile, less pain and can move around without feeling like im dying.

Thats why you should be doing gpp work

How fucking fat are you

Wasn't that bad imo, user.

>T
SSB 5x12 105kg
SSB good mornings 4x8 60kg
Leg extensions and reverse Hypers 3x20

Knee has been playing up when I hit depth so I'm doing more reps atm. Anyone know of any squat variations that puts less stress on the knees? Box squats?

I play rugby, kind of hard to avoid it.

More than id like but less than most here. Can see my top abs and in the morning.

agility drills, more than anything imo, help feel more consistently confortable moving around. i cant imagine how it would feel if i didn't do sports like wrestling and football. cone drills are legit
i think im just too tight and fatigued.
box squats might, could also be an issue with technique putting more stress there. extension and good mornings can stress the knees from my experience

What are you lifts?

No idea what my 1rms are atm, most recent max effort movements were

Cambered bar box squat 220+60 band x3
Slingshot bench 185 x7
5 inch deficit deadlift 240 x5

>not a member of a PL fed
>no plans to become one or compete

AND you've got shit cardio. nice going, lardlifter!

I haven't had any knee problems in a while. It all started after an 8 hour trip back home. I guess I'll just have to do hypertrophy work till it gets better.

5x a week

But I don't anymore, that was my point...

>Anyone know of any squat variations that puts less stress on the knees? Box squats?
pin squats, set pins so you dont hit depth

If you squat with a lot of forward knee travel that would really aggravate existing knee pain

How tf do I do squats, tell me right now, my ankle mobility is shit, my hip mobility is shit, should I swap to converse flat shoes instead of doing them in my runners? I fucking hate squats and I have zero problem doing any of the other compounds!!

>Knee has been playing up when I hit depth so I'm doing more reps atm
Perhaps what it needs is less work so it can catch up?

Does it though? I thought so first but then i heard that is just a myth. I dont know anymore, some knee travel is okay, to much is not, how much is to much? I dont know

Usually when people try doing squats and deads and they say things like "yeah i cant i dont have mobility" or "my feet are to long" "my torso is to long" "i cant bend my knees etc" they usually just do the movement wrong and i get them to do similar movements like bodyweight squats, front squats, goblin squats etc they get in to the right position and their back gets right angle etc so try doing some goblin squats against the wall using a kettlebell (youtube it) etc. Its not hard and you can probably do it

I've been doing goblet squats to help with stability, and it's definitely helped me get deeper than I could before, and I've been doing ankle stretches because my ankle mobility really does stink (I've tested it and I cannot do a bodyweight squat without my heels turning inward/toes pointing outward) but squatting still feels awful to me, very unstable and a difficult movement.

You are on the right track then. Another thing that could be helpful is trying out different stances and see if it makes any difference and varying toe position. Standing on two small plates with your heels might do wonders as well.

I meant specifically for squatting to pins, theres a lot more potential stress to go through the knee as you're having to overcome inertia

I dont see how squatting to pins increased forward knee travel or knee loading. The pin squat helps the lifter stop before he goes so deep that his knee hurts.

Inertia

Cutting squats high.

If you need more than that then you don't know as much as you think you do.

???? retard

I need extra posterior chain work
RDLs or Good Mornings?

is the recommended accessories for Madcow Intermediate really enough to make strength gains ? it seems really light volume, who actually tried it ?

Attached: 1557346480273.jpg (750x1086, 129K)

the one that makes you more hyped

Doesn't matter, keep 'em light because back can take over easily in both. I like GM more because of lighter loads and can focus easier on sitting back and getting that hamstring stretch under load.

Is little finger on first ring to close for my binch?

RDL get a greater activation of the hamstrings while GM activates the lower back better, you choose.

depends of your height

here you go

doesn't really matter. just do what feels natural. most people cant bench like a contortionist.

which one of these 4 should I get

Adherence is key, pick a movement you are more likely to actually do consistently with effort

neither

Stiff leg deadlift

No one chooses to be fat. This bitch is dumb lmao. Its just that they accept being fat because they cant control themselves and put the fork down.

IIRC, dietary transfat is actually responsible for being turned into cholesterol in the body
