/plg/ - powerlifting general
First for Lith unironically thinks deadlifts are a back movement
Name primary mover of a deadlift GO
HIP DRAAAAVE
Hamstrings and gluteus
traps
i put my dick under the bar and then i think about you in leggings and the bar goes up
Do you only train the primary movers of each lift?
No lats?
Poutine BTFO
Not a primary mover but a stabiliser.
>the deadlift uses the lats as a tertiary(?) mover (or stabiliser)
>lith is bad at deadlifts
>there lithnolats
I like your logic tbqh
>exercises only use the primary movers
seems pretty solid to me
>massive cutie in my biology class
>sometimes stare at her for too long
>she obviously picks up on it
>asks me for my name and Facebook
>say I don't have Facebook and walk away in panic
Who here likes to /fuck themselves/
fuck off chad
I've literally never had a gf but just happen to have a good face and lift
>I like your logic tbqh
My logic has me pulling more than four plate
Duuuude what the fuck
Do you have Facebook? I actually don't so I wonder what you should've done in that situation
Asked for her number probably
Wait so she just came up to you and asked for your Facebook unprompted?
No, your monkey arms and short torso have you pulling more than 4pl8
You're actually illiterate when it comes to lifting
She wanted to check his status before advancing
no this is current theme fuk off
>powerlifting
Listen to this for good feels
youtu.be
>back and hamstrings still rekt from Tuesday
Tomorrow is gonna be fuuuuunn
uncapped weightclass is a meme
Turns out she wanted my full name cause she was looking me up on Facebook, but I don't have one so she didn't find me
So she straight up asked
It was busy and there was a large group, I just autismed myself out of there.
hahaha I would do some shit like this too
you should have just asked for her number but hindsight is 20/20
lads how fix hip abductor tightness/pain
stop doing sumo
Warm up properly
I had the same issue when I started doing sumo but now I do like 6 different stretches and warmups and its fine
I think you forgot the quads :^)
I don't do sumo except as an accessory like you're supposed to on Nuckols 2 day DL.
Ok, but anything to rehab it now? So I can be fresh for my real pulls on sunday.
dear lith
scapular retraction is better than downward rotation
the lat is an internal rotator of the humerus, so doing a ton of vertical pulling when trying to balance out bench in terms of your shoulder health is stupid
Did I?
Check em
Advil if it hurts, stretching of it is simply toght
Gonna try pulling 200 kg today lads
Smash it laddo
IT'S POWER BALLAD TIME!
youtube.com
I will not put poison in my body.
Stretching and rest it is then.
Shouldn't be hurting days afterwards. My pain only lasted for a couple hours
Man if you just want to cheat and do an easier version, you don't have to make up an excuse. Just do it. The pull up is demonstrably fine, anyone saying its bad for you is fucking retarded
k
Might just be doms and tightness Tbh, not "real" pain.
I did hear a pop once I failed a rep though.

woooooooooooo
I get to train and hang out with a 308/shw powerlifter today. He currently has a 2303 total.
>225lb pendlay rows are easier than doing pullups as a 150lb twinklith
keep doing what you're doing lad, it's obviously working
Relevant how
that is such an unfathomable total
what are his lifts? 900/500/900?
pull ups aren't """"""bad for you"""""" but horizontal pulling is better
The fact that you have the back and deadlift of an America's Next Top Model contestant shows that maybe you should question if your methods and beliefs are best
when do you test your deadlift next?
gotta love SD
>Deadlift same as squat
>Shw
Pick one and only one
Just because my deadlift sucks doesn't mean my back sucks
I can comfortably do 15 pullups at RPE 3
>is that meant to be impressive?
No but it means my back is somewhat ok
>when do you test your deadlift next?
I'm running a modified version of knuckols int 1 day where I skip week 3 but I'm considering jumping on a linear program instead to see if I can progress even faster
>No but it means my back is somewhat ok
it means you are a fuggin twink
>Just because my deadlift sucks doesn't mean my back sucks
it does
fight me boyo
>you are a fuggin twink
Not for long baby, almost 200lb*
If you arent above 100 kilograms, sorry but you are a twink
trips confirms
t. same poster
>@ the gym alone
>bout to set a big deadlift PR
>get pumped up
>the excacy of gold comes on
>get so emotional i start tearing up
>smesh it
Kinda cringe but anyone else get this? Literally can't controll my emotions when I'm in the zone.
youtube.com
it's so weird watching them squat insane weights @4, then struggle to pull 100lbs less
it's almost like your lat strength doesn't carry over well to your deadlift...
Good luck. I did 1x beg dead and had good results. What linear program were you considering?
Also I just looked at 1x int dead and it specifically prescribes rowing kek
hey guys I'm /r/'ing if anyone could the post the webm of 3 guys deadlifting. The one in the front looks like a chad all geared up and deadlifting heavy, and there are two guys behind him. The one on the right behind him is struggling to deadlift 1pl8 and it always makes me laugh. I hope the description helps. Thanks!
Just got chatted up by the airport smoothie girl and swolested by the security guy
CHAD drinks POMEGRANATE and gets SODOMIZED by the airport security wand while you get IGNORED by the old chinese lady on the BUS
But I'm not even a BRAD.
who here /competing tomorrow/
Or am I the only one
where u at senpai
In a car ?
No I mean your comp
Why you competing tomorrow?
because the sport of power lifting is based around competition
There is no point competing if you Wilks under 400.
>injure lower back dead lifting
>take time off and do rehab
>spine still pretty much hurts
>deadlift anyway
>pain goes away
>don't deadlift for while
>pain comes back
>deadlift again
>pain goes away
>repeat
Why.???
Brandon Allen. Was with ape-man now is only with iron rebel. Dudes a nice guy but the kind of guy who will snap on someone if they fuck around. His 2303 total was like 9 something 550 and 8something I'm using shit hotel wifi so can't load the exact total break down
If you don't deadlift at all then your muscles atrophy. Less muscle means less support, and therefore more pain for your injury. By all means take it slow, but ceasing to lift entirely will probably worsen the injury.
I meant why are you asking me where I'm competing tomorrow is it because you're competing tomorrow as well ?

The WAW__T meme is the worst meme of plg
I'm the one asking the question
Agreed I think it was started by Alex to make things worse
Are diners the best stop for bulking food and bulking accessories?
8 dollars for 3000 calories of pancakes, eggs, sausages and a milkshake.
Haha yeah you like those sausages in your mouth I bet, diners a great place to find Greg the tranny and suck his greasy sausage in the back of a greasy diner dirty ass bathroom
It's a way for people to actually talk about training
tfw Greg "undoes your belt" buckols is making me do 2 amraps today

Not bad, not great. Wishing I had a qt3.14azngf to cuddle later, but alas, it is not so.
How about you, user?
>a qt3.14azngf

I really don't understand what you people see in gooks, I literally can't comprehend them as sexual beings.
