/plg/ Powerlifting General
Deadlift is worst lift and needs to be removed edition.
/plg/
Second for op is correct
Threads are slowly becoming great again
God bless
First meet today lads wish me luck!
tranny gets banned and plg is comfy again
tfw when 105kg category and faggots like op webm can happend only in lower ones
Bench is obviously the worst lift and should be replaced by overhead press.
I can agree on push press since you can lift more that way
it was in oly lifting but dropped as too hard to judge
Oh fuck no.
If you think the judging is bad now, just wait till people are pressing in competition.
Agreed
Did a week of OHP and Push press, came back to bench and I injured my wrist and shoulder first day back.
Also bench is grindy and sucks :(
the funniest part?
trappy said it there would be no different if she didn't post
she said everyone would still shitpost
really makes you think
Chances are he will come back eventually and say something like hurr durr but the threads were slower, oblivious to the fact that's better for a general on Veeky Forums, and how PLG has been since the beginning.
Enjoy it while it lasts, friend.
i just ignore
ive been lifting for over half a decade and ive learned a lot but you come to realise you still know hardly anything, im still learning everyday, every session, every conversation with someone stronger/smarter/more experienced
listen to people who know what theyre tallking about, and if you cant find that, listen to the most experienced not necessarily the strongest, take isley, not the best total or lifts in the grand scheme of things but he has a huge amount of time under the bar and around tons of other lifters, you cant replicate that
>actually smart opinion on something
but seriously now everyone can ask for program advise and It wont be sheiko if your squat is around 2pl8
Agreed, but I think its more simple as to just pick and chose what advice you take, you don't have to take it all.
I think its more important to put aside time to testing what works best for you.
Has anyone actually ever been injured on record doing that huge lean?
Also is doing Good Mornings going to help my squat and deadlift go up?
Yes and yes.
Barbell vood mornings spook me though. If I had to do it I'd do it with a SSB or chains.
to be honest, programming questions will always be a grey area here, no one really knows how to put something decent together, people either follow cookie cutter programming without tailoring them to their own specific weaknesses, or have had some form of coaching
dogs rule ez
Thats not fair
trappy has coached hundreds of lifters on Veeky Forums
and she said she worked at pl gym and coached many lifters there aswell
...
well I know that my chest is my weakest area and I base my upper hypertrophy around it
I know you're joking but trappy actually believes this
youre better off putting more time into shoulders and triceps to increase your bench
>trappy has coached hundreds of lifters on Veeky Forums
giving them a cookie cutter routine with a swapped exercise or two is not coaching
>and she said she worked at pl gym and coached many lifters there aswell
no proof of her lifting or coaching in real life, just a shopped ipf picture
i know ur trolling but ye :)
I can already push press more than I bench, arm work is getting done too but my physique is literally broad shoulders and no pecs at all
in fact, there's nothing that connects her to any kind of strength related real life activity
NOTHING. there's a gym pic but you can go to the gym and run on a treadmill, doesn't prove shit.
if you can push press more than you bench you dont need chest work you need to learn how to bench
this is what im working on right now thats why I 3x beg bench nucklos and now Im dropping my max by 10kg to learn how to do it without struggling with weights
whats the consensus on nsuns 531 lp as an SS alternative?
pic related
its a big reddit meme
Never be afraid to deload and work on your form. Make sure you find a good width for your hands too, that was one of my biggest issues.
I'd also recommend ending every workout you work on your bench, with pushups. Not too much, but enough to make sure you're pecs are being hit.
Gbro,what routine would you suggest that has low-ish intesity but enough volume?
I recently began squatting/dl again due to back pain (I still have it,I just need to stretch for like 30minutes before lifting) and I'm pretty much lost.
I also got diagnosed with Spondy l5-s1 although it's asymptomatic for now.
I have been running J&T2.0 for bench for a couple of cycles and I really like it, bench is consistently going up.
I tried to add sq/dl to it but I think I overestimated my maxes and I'm definetly paying the consequences.
I had 142,5kg as TM but managed a 2RM of 130kg @ 9RPE on squats yesterday.
Should I run it again with lower maxes or try something that is a bit easier?
My training history goes: SS->TM->C6W(Injury)->Gnuckols->Rest->LP SS for sq/dl -> J&T2.0
this is how I planned my upper body (3x a week)
Bench - 3x beg bench Nucklos
Pull ups - total of 24 reps
OHP - 3x 8-12 range RPE 9
pendaly row - 3x beg bench Nucklos (I use same formula)
dumbell flies/press - 3x 10-15 range
arm work - 3x 10-15 range
am I doint it right?
his fucking arms
whyd the tranny get banned
i know someone that has that, he squats 400kg in multiply so please dont think you cant lift heavy again
im not a great one for programming if im honest
what i will say is do a ton of hypers, if you have access to a reverse hyper then thats good, every session
google 'mcgill big 3' and do them every day plus cat/camel, if you can, get a heavy band and choke it round a rack and do youtube.com
and i like to lay on a foam roller and put 3 20kg plates on top of me and sit with it in the lumbar/mid back/thoracic for about 60 seconds each, puts everything where it should be
they should just remove all lifting from the sport entirely and have contestants push against a force plate at various joint angles. Thats the only way to be truly objective.
train with the big 3, then test against an isometric and isokinetic dynamometers.
There, fixed your stupid sport
What is the general consensus on inflating sheiko maxes?
Im in week 2 and its piss easy so far, does it even get hard?
posting porn
hah really?
What is upper body pull
Monday & Thursday, where it says "Back"
this
powerlifting should be just squats and deadlifts
Bench is really fucking retarded
>i know someone that has that, he squats 400kg in multiply so please dont think you cant lift heavy again
That's really reassuring,thanks
>google 'mcgill big 3' and do them every day plus cat/camel, if you can, get a heavy band and choke it round a rack
I can't do that thing with the bands but I'm already doing mcgill big 3 and other stuff for my back.
Right now I think the pain has something to do with my APT and tight hip flexors/glutes.
Pain has been decreasing over the last couple of months and some days it's just mild discomfort.
Thanks for all the help,have a good weekend :)
Sheiko beginner prep & comp done
trappys version is officially not "internet exclusive" (who even says that)

Dude he says to start LIGHT
also take the 30 minute breaks bud
what the fuck is going on with this mike wazowski looking motherfucker?
There's a British flag behind him, so probably inbreeding
I am going lighter yeah, can't take 30 min breaks though, gym shuts at 4.
The burning has stopped, its slightly easier now.
Meh, I'd rather have someone do the Beginner's stuff Wendler writes about in Beyond 5/3/1.
>and i like to lay on a foam roller and put 3 20kg plates on top of me and sit with it in the lumbar/mid back/thoracic for about 60 seconds each, puts everything where it should be
whut
Fused vertebrae.
Just started the TSA 9 week Intermediate, anyone else have any experience with it? Hella bench and rowing volume.
really?
progression 2.5 kg for upper and 5 kg for lower?
because that's still what you're doing in his beginner version
only difference is taht you're doing full body, fsl, 3 days a week etc
progress is still painfully slow
maybe if it add quicker progression based on amrap it would be better
I think Alex did it and starting failing reps a few weeks in.
EQUIPPED Squattos 3 singles at 275kg
Easy bench 115kg 4x4
Some good mornings and db press for insignificant weights and reps
Its not even that slow
2,5 kilos for upper and 5kg for lower every 3 weeks is propa fast my man.
deload week when you feel like, he says every 2nd cycle, but beginner probably doesnt need it.
Can't feel my arms anymore.
6 more cycles left
YOU GONNA DIE TOMORROW
OVERTRAINED BEACUSE OF ARMS WORKOUT
Gym owner is giving me the strangest looks lmao
youtube.com
i dont have a 130lbs piece of steel to lay on me so i have to do it the other way round
i just did close grip 100kgx18
is compsci hard? do i need to actually have some kind of mathematic talent or interest in computers to succeed?
What I meant was the 5s Progression, pdf-archive.com
If the lifter outgains that progression, there's no reason to not adjust the max to reflect that.
Ah, now I see.
...
hes been doing it to hundreds of athletes and american football teams from high school upto the nfl have been utilising it all to good effect, tightness doesnt tend to hold up under such weight
Pause Squats 80kg 5x5
45˚ CG Incline Bench Press 100x5x10
Some back work
Might give it a go next time I'm feeling fucked after deadlifts/squats.
you do it before training
Half way through
Already drank my 8 scoops
Oh, right, gotcha.
>it's another episode of "user is an Absolute Madman"
IN ON EPIC EDITION OF /PLG/
I hope you're going to do before/after pics,absolute madman
yeah, i was talking about that as well. but i thought you were supposed to increase the same way
"The same 5-10 pound increments apply."
i guess its hard without rules to follow, i feel like i might overdo/underdo it then
how and when should i increase max more than the specified amount then?
...
Gotta say, plg is max comfy right now
Nice.
>3 cycles left
>so close
>elbow pain
Benching working up to 220 (lbs obv) for a few sets of 8, with the last being an AMRAP to @8.5-9
Everything still going well laddo?
Forgot trip
Didn't you do CLutz?
>lifting with Joe and Twink right now
I'll say.
>tfw failed on the second set of 175 kg squats
A couple times yeah
I can just about do that, super wide grip
I just finished week 1 and every set I did felt below RPE6. Is that the way it's supposed to be? I'm using actual maxes.
Yeah the first couple weeks were pretty damn easy from what I remember. Wait till you get to weeks 4-6.
I don't remember the lifts themselves getting THAT difficult, but you definitely start to feel the effects of the fatigue.
Good luck. Where is it?
Alright so I shouldn't do anything stupid like inflate my maxes?
>get to mystery user's gym
>pay for guest pass
>guy at counter says "have a good workout"
>say "you too"
We had an unauthorized plg going and baited him into posting pics.
