All of the shoes described below are great, including the cheapest options. Heel height is personal preference.
Remember to look for sales. They're very common.

It's because of gays like trappy men can't be friends anymore
Joseph Long
I'll have a play with the ankle mobility/ feet position. Bar looks like it's over centre foot watching videos but I'll have a look at it properly next time I'm lifting . Cheers friendo.
Christian Edwards
Yes that's why you need to specifically look for one that is. Not sure if it needs to be Russian as well or not.
I'm straight tho o.O

The fact is that because of gays you can't really have intimate friendships between two men anymore, both because one would be afraid to look suspicious and gay to everyone else, but also to eachother, this is one of the great tragedies of modernity.

Yes you can
wut
Men are still friends just like always
You just need to work on your social skills lmao stop blaming your issues on other things
Angel Butler
how about you stop being so pedantic so people actually know what you're saying
flexion = lifting your arm directly in front of you extension = the opposite (behind you) horizontal adduction = moving your arm across your body horizontal abduction = the opposite
the only way you're gonna externally and internally rotate while benching is by having the elbows go either in or out. if there is some other way, please show me. that's flaring vs tucking. and this has been discussed to hell in the powerlifting community.
and what you're reccomendong is flaring elbows.
Nicholas Parker
Very rarely the kind one can see in history. In fact it's gotten to the point that gays and pro-gay academics project homosexuality onto male friends in history or classical literature, the modern treatment of Patroklos and Akilleus is a prime example.
Modern readers suddenly can not conceive of two men having a friendship that deep, without there being a homosexual subtext.

Lincoln Young
if the more advanced a lifter you are, the harder it is to get stronger/bigger, shouldn't you spend the early years cutting because the muscle that you might lose will be easier to gain back than if you were advanced?
Thomas Hughes
I think the added blubber makes it harder to get into a good starting position. My deads always feel like shit when I gain weight too fast.
Hudson Moore
Inverse, it's the squat that benefits the most from increased mass, bench too to an extent. Deadlift very very little up to a point, especially if you pull sumo.

Hey guys I've never noticed it before, because I was always looking at muh back when deadlifting, but I made a recording from the front and noticed my knees caving in slightly vid related. instagram.com/p/BPC7IcuDyx9/ Is it bad if so how to fix that? I really don't notice it at all when deadlifting I just noticed it on video.

I use the scientific terms specifically because if I don't people will misinterpret what I'm saying and shitposting will ensue.
Besides your description of the terms isn't very accurate, use this instead www.exrx.net/Articulations/Shoulder.html
>that's flaring vs tucking
No
It's not
Flaring vs tucking is the amount flexion in the range of motion. This is what reflects on the position of the elbow in relation to the transverse plane. Shoulder rotation and forearm rotation only moves in the transbrachial plane.
www.exrx.net/Articulations/Shoulder.html
Sorry it's a complicated subject. I try to make it as simple as possible without sacrificing accuracy, but it's not easy when we go into the depths of some of the most complicated biomechanical issues.

Could someone explain to me how to read the beginner sheiko doc? I'm really new to weightlifting in general and I'd like to give it a run
John Allen
a) what sort of flexion?
and yes I have sacrificed accuracy for people actually knowing what the fuck I'm talking about.
it gets the point across anyway. I don't see any need for more complex terms. Bench pressing is a simple movement.
b) it's really fucking basic, and you're over complicating because you want to seem smart.
c) where do you live
Kevin Wood
Step 1: Put your shit in. Step 2: Do the thing it says to do. Step 3: ????? Step 4: Become like Filip
Warning: If you fail to complete Step 2 (i.e. fuck with shit for no reason like a dumbdumb) you will become like George instead of Filip.
Asher Russell
This is trappy hating general go away with your stupid lifting questions
Jonathan Jackson
Put your maxes in the first sheet Run the prep cycle sheets in order If you're competing run the comp cycle after the prep cycles If you're not competing, run the first week only for the comp cycle after your prep cycles (where you test for new maxes)
You can choose how many prep cycles you want to run before maxing. 1, 2, 3, or whatever works for you.
Yep, it is. Definitions of sex and gender are not what they were in the 20th century.
Just like we don't consider that the earth is the centre of the universe anymore, or flat.
That's how science works. It changes all the time in attempts to increase its accuracy.
Unlike BELIEFS, which is what people here use to argue.
>in depth cutting-edge biomechanical discussions about bench pressing >shit
lmao you want reddit memes instead or something?
Both are excellent. Powerlift has lower heels.
If you squat lowbar, and have average mobility, go with PLs. If you squat highbar and front squat, and have average mobility, go with the Warrior.

Samuel Lee
I would just like to interject for a moment, what you are referring to as trappy, is in fact trappy-chan, or as I've been recently calling her, coach trappy-chan. Trappy isnt a lifting professional unto herself, but rather a free coaching qt3.14 made useful by the sheiko apps, riptoe books and vital medical information comprising a full coach as defined by IPF.

Wyatt Thompson
I've heard from a lot of people that the Powerlifts aren't very good because the heel is made out of EVA and as a consequence compresses under heavy weights.
Any truth to this or just an exaggeration?
Bentley Phillips
If you care about your performance then yeah skip
Christopher Morris
my friend's lifts: squats 180kg x 5 bench 132,5kg x 5 (flat, no arch) deadlift 225kg x 5
he lifted a couple of years, mostly on BB oriented routines with compounds and never ran a powerlifting routine. he would basically always do some FBW program and lift hard on every workout.
he said it's pointless to use a strict complex powerlifting routine unless you really think about competing, because other kinds of routines will make you look better and you'll eventually get strong as well as long as you stick to compounds.
what do you think?
Dominic Sullivan
>wikipedia
mfw
It's bullshit. PLs and PPs (same exact materials) have been used by some of the best powerlifters and weightlifters to win gold medals and break world records.
It's just an attempt of the people who have expensive shoes to justify their purchase, or an attempts of the own makers to keep people interested in buying or upgrading into the more expensive shoes.

Powerlifts are better for powerlifting because of a slightly slower heel.
It's also in the name, so you know they're boss.

Mark Macqueen uses that bar, ask him on IG if he likes it. I'm guessing he does. I've used their weightlifting bar which is decent quality, especially for the price.

thanks buddies
gonna order me a pair right now

shoulder flexion changes as you move the bar up and down
rotation (aka TUCKING) barely effects it.

9.5/10 bait I give it an extra .2 for being an academic bait, and also... two cups of soda. So 9.7/10 and two cups of soda.
Nice quads
I can't really help much with Canada shipping cause I don't live around you guys. But I'm pretty sure you can get some Adidas PP2s on ebay to ship to Canada... maybe you can get the Wei-Rui Warrior from their own website too?
Josh Hancott has said in video his PL1s are much more resilient than his many Adipowers. They've been lasting him forever while the Adipowers always get destroyed.
They're excellent shoes for the price.
Checkmate atheists!

Julian Clark
>Yep, it is. Definitions of sex and gender are not what they were in the 20th century.
Are you seriously so retarded that you don't understand that "male" means a person with chromosomes X and Y? Why would that definition change since it's completely accurate whether you like it or not?

Doing a mock meet, so yeah.
