TL:DR "Talent" is the over-active thyroid of weak lifters.

srs can't wait to start training at madtown. everyone looks so strong and the people all sound awesome from what I've heard. gonna be so much better than the uni gym or the commercial gym at home

>free sugars A what sugar? >insulin spikes So you don't eat carbs nor protein, ever? Sugar in the form of sucrose actually spikes your insulin less than starches (complex carbs) gram for gram, because the fructose part of it doesn't get metabolized via insulin response. That's why "insulin spike" and glycemic index are worthless in practice, as pure fructose has no insulin response while a can of beans does. Protein spikes insulin too; insulin is a normal part of metabolism and not inherently detrimental. Having, say, elevated cortisol is harmful, but that doesn't make cortisol within normal physiological range harmful.
Carson Miller
I'm not a blue "colar", I'm a researcher. Sugars are good, free sugars are bad. Complex carbs are good, refined carbs are bad. You're probably still an under-age teen so you're incapable to reason critically (12~14 yo teens are the ones with the worst capacity of judgement due to hormonal changes paired with an immature prefrontal cortex)

>A what sugar? A free sugar. You're supposed to be connected to the Internet right now. Have you tried to search "free sugars" in your favourite search engine? >>insulin spikes >So you don't eat carbs nor protein, ever? Take a breath and see >glycemic index is worthless It seems you're pretty confused about the role of sugar, fructose, protein and insulin. May I suggest to research a little before shitposting? >le doctor oz ebin :^)
Leo Phillips
>citation needed Stay blue colarred
Jaxson Smith
But there's no chemical difference between "free sugars", refined carbs, and something from fruit or unprocessed carb. Nothing is stopping you from having some fiber with your sugar, effectively slowing the digesting to that of fibrous whole food.

WHAT THE FUCK ARE FREE SUGARS
THIS LIL NIGGA JUST MAKING UP TERMINOLOGY NOW AHAHAHAHHAHAHAH
Ryan Clark
Have you considered upping your style/haircut game in order to >tfwgf ?
Michael Lopez
The free sugars wouldnt allow for it
Jonathan Rodriguez
Should the strict curl make a return to powerlifting?
You're assuming that the fibres are the (only) discriminant. It's not just a matter of adding fibres. No research considered by the WHO suggests this. It seems there's still a difference between sugars naturally occurring in fruits & dairy products (as long as they are assumed without refining processes) vs. free sugars paired with additional fibres. No study showed that an additional fibres intake can make up for free sugars.
Eli Harris
I'd rather see strict pullups
Henry Lopez
No. three lift meets are long enough already.
But it'd be pretty sweet to see more unofficial push/pull and three lift meets with different lifts involved.
Liam White
The Press should replace bench, not even meming. >replace main bench with OHP for ~2 months >elbow tendinitis nearly gone despite pressing heavy >shoulder pain gone >shoulders feel amazing >hit PR of 165 >right after hit 5lb bench pr of 205, despite not even benching save for CGBP Inb4 people telling me I should bench 405 before having an opinion
William Clark
Oh fuck no.
Standing OHP is un-fucking-judgeable. That's the entire reason it went out of oly lifting in the first place.
Brody Foster
>2 months to go from 200 to 205 >not abysmal progress Nah
Dylan Jackson
There we go
Liam Richardson
why does sean like Alex so much?
Robert Barnes
I keep hearing that, but is that the sole reason? It seems they just wanted to dump it for being inferior to snatch and c&j.
I mean, I'm sure if they really wanted to, they could come up with proper strict judging and rules for it instead of allowing it to turn into a standing bench. Like maybe a string at shoulder height x distance from midfoot line marked out, and if your back leaned into it, it would be red. This would guarantee an upright torso at least, although would need to be adjusted for back thickness, since thinner people would have a ROM-lean advantage. 3 months, 1 month to deload and fix tendinitis before dropping altogether.
Samuel Adams
It was pretty much the sole reason. The history of the press in oly lifting was about sixty straight years of knife-fights over what was and wasn't an acceptable lift.
They did originally have rules about leaning back. It just proved to be completely unenforceable in anything resembling a consistent, easy to judge fashion. And kept proving that way every time they changed the rules.
Nicholas Thompson

Andrew Peterson
There's literally nothing wrong with being the best athlete you can be with the cards you're handed.
Charles Ramirez
I kind of agree with you. The teeny tiny ROM asians would disagree.
I mean if I was a potatoe, I'd rather be the strongest potatoe
Elijah Harris
wrong screenshot? cause ph3 doesnt have you squatting 4 times a week, ever
Anthony King
PR day today
squat 117.5kg for 5, last week i only got 2 reps and this just flew up, even if i did almost black out on the third rep. my current tested 1rm is only 122.5kg, so i'll have to do another 1rm squat day soon. The shoes and the alterations to my form have really helped me on my squat.
OHP 53kg for 4, failed on rep 5 AGAIN, this time got it just over my head instead of to my eyes, so a slight improvement, although i'm not doing a lot of OHP training, only doing it twice a week for a total of 3 sets of 90% and 3 sets of 80%.
Sumo Deadlift 145 for 5, last time i only got three, my hands are the weak point here. I tried to get one rep of 160kg out after this and the bar would barely leave the floor. Next week i'll try conventional for 130kg, i feel conventional is going to outstrip my sumo soon. I have altered my sumo based on advice, and it's a proper sumo now not a hybrid.
2/3 PR attempts though, pretty happy with that.
then some incline bench, leg curls and seated shoulder press as accesories
Owen Rogers
>it's a "Rasputin posts about his shitty workout and posts surprisingly good looking food" episode
Landon White
When's your first workout there? I'm the guy starting at Epic. Moving to Madison on Wednesday and will probably drop by Madtown Thursday or Friday.
Hudson Barnes
Christ mate, you do not need to constantly retest 1RMs. Especially not on a program that gives zero fucks about what your 1RM actually is. Losing a training session to test your max under those circumstances is a complete waste of a session.
Jace Morales
Really? I'm pretty sure it was about PH3
Ryan Gutierrez
Might there be a PH3 expert in the house??
Michael Lee
I'm moving into my apartment on wednesday too. hopefully on either thursday or friday I'll be able to stop by and pay for my membership. I'll only be there for 8 months, so I'm hoping to get the summer deal, then pay for the next 5 months on a 3-month block and 2 1-month blocks. I think that should be the cheapest way for me to do it (not that you care).
but hopefully on thursday or friday. likely friday though. don't worry, the night before there will probably be a massive influx of hypeposting
Aaron Hill
>gram for gram For equivalent comparison, you have to compare equal carbs to carbs, not cooked rice to 100g pure sugar. 50 worth of grams of carbs is standard, which would equal 25g of glucose for the sucrose, with 50 of glucose for the rice. Furthermore, glycemic load =// glycemic index. For example, a low-GI food will produce a high glycemic load when consumed in quantity, simply for the carbs being digested, while a high-GI food, like pure glucose, won't produce a significant glycemic load if only a couple grams consumed. And individual food GI all goes out the window when you eat an actual meal.
Ryan Howard
also what time do you work out normally?
Connor Moore
So, Isley's cues didn't really work for me to prevent forward collapse.
But looking up helped a fair bit. Going to start focusing on "dump the bar" and "chest up" as a cue.
Charles Roberts
It's a mental thing, my program has me trying to set a new 5RM, and it makes me nervous when I am expected to do a weight I've never even done once and do it for 5 reps.
Besides, i haven't done a 1rm test of anything for over a month now, and really wanna change that 799lb total
Andrew Bell
I start work on the 6th and after that I'll probably work out in the evenings. Maybe around 6 or 7. This'll be my first full time job, so we'll see if I have enough energy after work. Before the 6th, I'll probably just go sometime around 2-4.
Nicholas Sanchez
Post a video of your squats Being bent over doesn't matter, the problem would be on the ascent if your back angle changes The only way to prevent it is to learn to be tight in the core and especially upper back
Ayden Carter
>listening to an equipped lifter >any year
Landon Taylor
Who the fuck are you and where have you been
Isaiah Morgan
>Maybe around 6 or 7 ayyy nice. I think I'm working 8-4 starting next week. either that or 9-5. I'm pretty sure it's 8-4 though. but around 6-7 would be comfy
Adrian Hughes
do NOT attempt to keep your back upright, DON'T
everybodies squat is different, but if you don't bend forward at all you will break your spine
Ayden Carter
What, did you post a video already? I've never seen your squats, and oftentimes inexperienced lifters who squat lowbar think they are collapsing are actually not, it's just the nature of a lowbar squat If your hips do shoot back and your back angle changes though, then the ONLY way to fix it is to fight it
Jose Taylor
Okay, awesome. I'm heading off for the night but I'll see you in a week or so!
Jaxson Baker
Who the fuck are you two?
>you will break your spine
k ur a trol
not sure about u tho
Jonathan Thompson
Whatever you're trying to communicate is not coming across Speak your mind ffs
Jace Gutierrez
Nah mate, your spine will definitely explode if you use a certain cue.
Aaron Young
Squatting with out an upright back is literally the dumbest thing you can do.
Alexander Smith
Holy shit mires are so easy at a cf gym
Jack Williams
You do realise that the only total that counts is in competition, right? You don't have a total out of gym lifts, regardless of what you put up.
Cooper Barnes
>For equivalent comparison, you don't have to compare gram for gram >glycemic load =// glycemic index So, you're really brain damaged.
Benjamin Jenkins
no u
fuck
"no"
Right? Normie gyms are incredible. The highschool kids at my gym have stopped being sneaky about it and just come and watch my worksets now.
>alright children, let uncle Poutine show you how to fuck your shit up with light weight.
Alexander Rogers
how old are you cuck even
Liam Howard
I'm just cuck years old
Carter Rivera
i bet my dad could beat the shit out of you
Gabriel Hill
m8, let me put something into perspective, i have the 5th highest deadlift and 3rd highest squat in my gym.
Blake Butler
I dunno I bet my dad could cuck your cuck
Carson Flores
are you gay?
Brayden Allen

Grayson Ward
Gym is only open for another 3 hours, do i have enough time for an 8 hour arm workout?
Landon Russell

Connor Gonzalez
>tfw no mires
Lucas Martinez
maybe if you mired yourself, other people would think that your also mirable.
Ryder Stewart
Shouldn't trappy be the one posting nice food? Why is Rapsuin the only one on Veeky Forums who can cook?
Xavier Richardson
Has Candito seriously given up on PL?
Cooper Young
I usually make my way into a crossfit gym and get mired there.probably because of an appreciation of strength in compounds.
All you have to do is make 5pl8 look piss easy and you're basically in danger of slipping in vaginal fluid
>so he's a powerlifter? >look at his legs! >I'm sorry! I just can't stop staring! All things I pretended I couldn't hear
>Bro how about you stack some weight on there? >Jesus dude do you always lift this heavy? >how long did it take you to get this strong?
Easy mires at a crossfit gym, especially more than corporate gyms, true normies have no appreciation for compounds emphasis, it's more like they're wondering how much you can curl
Evan Fisher
no one believes you
Aiden Brooks
I beelieve you user.
Jose Walker
How much you squat
Alexander Gonzalez
I don't FRAME care. Lol.
Keep that denial FACE up I'm sure it keeps HEIGHT you sane
Charles Campbell
>nutella 50% sugar and 25% oils
Seems about right. Brownies are sugar suspended in molten chocolate and butter.
Thomas Campbell
>inb4 What's your fran time >or how far can you run >the vagina dries up quicker than the saraha
Elijah Adams
But how much can you curl though
Isaac Mitchell
How do I actually use my fucking glutes and hammies in the deadlift? My conventional looks like aids and it's depressing me. They aren't too weak, that I know for sure.
Brandon Parker
>all you have to do is make 5plate look easy
Im sorry, which of your lifts are you referring to here?
Grayson Bailey
>saraha Fuckin kek
Lincoln Cox
Rotate your knees out slightly and screw your feet into the ground.
Benjamin Martinez
>what are ketones
Evan Rogers
When you set up, keep your hips high and back and feel around until you feel a stretch in glutes and hams. Google hip hinge and learn a proper romanian deadlift, then you'll know the position you need to be in.
Liam Phillips
If you arent using them then they are weak
Under maximal load the body will find the path of least resistance
