/plg/ - powerlifting general

is he unironically autistic

This is because federations want as many people to compete as possible so that they can farm money. That's why its looked down upon to shit on weak competitors. You've merely swallowed their meme inclusiveness for some reason.

because i have no reason to be shitty to people for no reason
nothing is better than having a gym full of friends to see when you work out, listen to phil more

>Think of how fucking stupid it is to call yourself a strongman when you've been lifting for a year or two and weigh 170lbs.

Jesse Norris is Wicked Smart

I get that you're trolling, but you need to anchor it in at least some semblance of reality for the trick to work

reeeeeeeeeeee

Imagine a bodybuilding contest where everyone is encouraged to compete, from dyels to sod busters. Now imagine that anyone who laughs or questions it's legitimacy is a pariah.

pirate it you mouthbreather

requesting the image of a tall guy in a singlet squatting like 80 kg out of an eleiko rack with 3 spotters around him

Imagine if worlds strongest man began with hundreds of couch potatoes failing to lift heavy things and anyone who questions it is crucified.

I hate dealing with torrents and all the old streaming sites I used got taken down

Torrents are easy. click one button. wait a bit. you're done

Imagine a sport that doesn't allow amateur competition

280 -> 340 wilks from 2 meets in half a year

Feels good man

Gj lad

>Imagine a bodybuilding contest where everyone is encouraged to compete

Literally 99% of the BB competitions.

Thx lad

My gym actually does have a 170lber calling himself a Strongman after a couple years of lifting.

Considering he's competed at Arnold qualifiers and held his own, it's hard to disagree with the claim.

>deadlift near 3x bw
>don't train pull ups but thought I'd give it a go
>10 unweighted
Haha kill me pls

Remind yourselves of the voice changer vocaroos and realize it.
Thank you

Whelp, got my MRI report.
I've got mild arthritis in my L5 from sudden joint damage, my L4 has a slightly damaged disc membrane (but isn't outright herniated), and both L4 and L5 are leaking synovial fluid from the facet joints.

RIP gains, I hardly knew you

What happened?

Philip attacked him in a fit of "nerd bashing".

no :DDD

Fucked myself doing a front squat. I'd done everything barefoot before and tried to do a narrower stance when I finally bought a pair of adipowers, cus I felt like I was limiting myself biomechanically by relying on my ankle flexibility so much.

Just asked dtrain how Aus Nationals went

how'd that go?

Literally how

How much do you front squat?

he looked kinda sad, and even offered me an old belt to use. Really nice guy desu

lmao 3plate. I'd managed 120kg ez, but ended up rounding my lower back as I tried standing up with the extra 20kg. Keeping the lower back tight comes naturally to me when I'm squatting with a slightly wider stance, just didn't keep quite tight enough.

Hope you get well.

Who's dtrain?

So literally nothing RIP worthy, people went back to lifting heavier weights after 2-3 herniated discs obviously they rehabbed it properly.

wrang trap

yeah he sounds like a solid guy

Basically he got a 12 month ban from PA a week before he was going to compete at aus nats for judging a local meet at the gym he trains at. He did break the rules but he's a PA lifter (was set to break records), promotes PA at a PA based gym that had a local meet to encourage new people to compete in PA so I don't really like the ruling

Cheers

I'm a little more worried about the arthritis thing, I'm hoping I just get an anti-inflammatory injection and avoid lifting/ twisting and it'll go away for good. If it's permanent joint grinding thing I'm gunna be fucked for the rest of my life.

Surprised it wasnt a 13 month ban Tbh. Sounds like something PA would do

Also means that he won't be unbanned in time to qualify for aus nats next year as well.

OH FUCK LOL THATS WHAT I MEANT THEYD DO HAHAHAHAHA

"1.3 AFFLIATIONS - P.A. and/or its Members shall not affiliate with, nor participate as a lifter, coach or official
in the activities of an Australian or international powerlifting organization other than the
I.P.F., or an organization within the structure of the I.P.F. (that including P.A.). If a
Member does so affiliate with or participate in the activities or event of a non-I.P.F. or P.A.
powerlifting organization, on the determination of the PA Board that member shall be
suspended from participation as a lifter, coach or official within P.A. for a period of 12
months from the initial date of that affiliation or participation"

It's set as a 12 month ban so at least they are enforcing their own rules without bias

This really makes me dislike PA desu.
Competing in a big lolfed comp? sure. Judging a local meet? fuck off

I would read up on Anti-inflammatory injections before getting them especially for mild arthritis. I would certainly avoid a Cortisone shot as they're shit and wouldn't take them even if I had a 9/10 scale pain.

Good luck though, I had a back injury just 3 weeks ago (couldn't even bend down more than 10 degrees and horrible sciatica pain) after squatting lmao 4.5 pl8 without back even bending and it was only till yesterday that I managed to squat 150 kg

I've never had a cortisone shot, why are they bad?

They do fuck all (had them for Elbow Tendinitis returned week latter even with rest etc...) and after reading up they actually weaken your tendon and muscle, would definitely not get it for a mild issue. drugs.com/sfx/cortisone-side-effects.html

Dunno about cortisone but I had a bunch of shit like tendinitis, tendinosis, and a bunch of torn ligaments, and they responded well to training, arginine/citrulline, ~3g of vit c daily, and none of the crap doctors advised (rest, antiinflammatories, though I guess vit c is one?)

Dunno about arthritis though.

I guess you should research the crap out of this shit on powerlifting and strength training forums. They sometimes give better rehab advice than docs.

nice rare pepe 5/7

Sheeit.
Well, still. It might be worth it, the tendon and muscles can atrophy all they want, I won't be able to lift for a while anyway, probs best to minimise the inflammation before it rubs too much for too long.

I think I might be in love with mei

You're right.

This ""sport"" is now over populated with limp wristed autists.

They're all trying to be stronk to fix being closeted faggots. Daddy ain't never coming back.
