/plg/ - powerlifting general

This thread is dedicated to a mystery trip

Where is every 1

That's one handsome bawbbii

How did you know who that is???

powerlifting is useless gym specific strength. if you want actual functional strength you should be doing bodyweight

I do pushups, sit-ups and pull-ups is that enough?

>Go back to good equipment
>Session felt easy as shit, zero fatigue
>Finished my session quickly
What a magical feeling. Looks like I won't need to deload after all

>powerlifting

This Samoyed wants to tell you something

not even close cracker. bodyweight you gotta increase intensity just like pling . difference is theres no weight so you need to learn all the variants of standard bodyweight exercises that increase intensity

for instance, elevating your feet will increase pushup intensity. theres a couple books out there that teach you all the bodyweight exercises so you can legit use bodyweight to get strong

I was kidding, I don't care.

thanks lad

typical braindead pler lol

not sure if I would rather snuggle with her or her dog

Typical projection

Because friendship.

Training going a lot better than it was lads. Pretty happy

ITS NOT ME!!!! :(((( PLEASE STOP BULLYING ME IN PLG ALL THE TIME DDD:

I GET SO ANGGRRRY!!!!!!

Why is plg always dead it's actually annoying

Because no one wants to talk about anything, plus a lot of people left

Then why keep making a new thread

Because some people enjoy making the first new thread for some autistic reason

Did you say that cause I put your face on it

What's the best routine for advanced bench programming?

nice thread

That was actually funny, I was just referring to like 3+ anons making new threads at the same time to be the first new thread.

Who is this?

Do you mean building the monolith?

you dont know this famous lifter?

he held an ipf record bench for 120+ kg weight class for 3 years now

because my princesa left

Whomst's jewish grandmother is this?

It's not as effective as weights for incremental loading/quick gains

For example elevating push ups doesn't make them harder, it means you're not incline benching rather than benching

see

I'm in the discord and keep seeing this guys face

Who is he??

I'm pretty sure I know who this is and I believe that that is not a fact.

now THATS a face i can get used to seeing

wasn't that a squat focused program

>doing American programs
>ever
I really really hope you guys are on drugs

the best natty powerlifters are American
go back to your Slavic shit hole

projecting much?

USAPL is a lolfed though

>same pepe in back to back posts
I think this conversation is done

>he doesn't see the value in using a good, appropriate reaction image in multiple posts

yikes this general is dead

if only trappy came back...

what federation in US isnt a lolfed

s-she is coming back just wait!

Someone who escaped Auschwitz

Did something fuckity to my arm today lads. Right where my tricep ties into my elbow I feel a sharp pain when moving. Running it on a lacrosse ball is painful but provides temporary relief. Did I just tendinitis myself?

Does faceguy still post here?

It's possible. Does it get really bad when you do a pressing movement?

Yes

Good. I have a pretty out there question for him

Stop fucking with it, lad.

I have been training for strength for 1 and a half years.
I am 18 at 78 and 5'10"
Does it get better /plg/ anons, i am a disrace to powerlifting?

age means nothing it gives a false sense of potential but some just peak early

I'm really tired of deadlifts and since I'm not competing I want to change my main pull to a pull variation. (Already do a variation + conventional but want purely variation)

I'm stuck between RDLs or Deficit Deadlifts, what do each of these do better than a conventional?

Deficit deadlifts are like worse deadlifts. So RDL if you're tired of deadlifts.

I'm droppin a Norman khan right now

So far only one log has gone into the toilet

Think I'm missing the explosiveness on account of the caffeine not hitting my stomach yet

BRRRRRAFFFFFFPT


SQUISLY PLOP

Think the caffeine is starting to kick in just sharted out a mushy Norman khan

quads give up on that pr, question is how your hard sets of 8-3 reps look

if quads give up too and you hips all the way up add some quad assistance

Deficit deadlifts are better than conventional at making you want to kys. RDLs are better than conventional at making you not want to kys. Squat hard and RDL hard and your DL might even improve.

I honestly enjoy running Smolov programming for squat and deadlift, and Smolov Jr for benchpress, twice a year.

Am I dumb, ignorant, or both?

How do I include 2-3 days of running into my powerlifting program?

Can you explain this to me? From my experience, deficit deadlifts are actual deadlifts that make me more confident at breaking the bar off the floor. RDLs don't feel like deadlifts at all, they feel like an erector and hamstring pump accessory. Like weighted hyperextensions or hack good mornings or something I'm not saying that doing squats and RDLs won't improve your DL, but deficit DL is probably a more faithful accessory if you want to use a low weight.
Oh and snatch grip deadlift > deficit deadlift

>tfw cant activate lats with mixed grip
how to fix

hook grip

SNATCH GRIP DL

GRIP

DL
L

Also for your heavy sets

Pretend you're trying to crush some oranges in your armpits, or someone is trying to tickle the shit out of you and you don't want them to.

Yeah i was going to try hooking today. After you get used to it can you use hook grip all the time? Like for all working sets

How does that help

ok ill try focusing on that but its a lot more natural with DOH

post discord plx have a dougie as thanks

>How does that help
I'm not a kinesiologist, but snatch pull 60% of your conventional 5rm for 5 and tell me where you felt it
My guess is that by worsening your grip and "shortening" your arms, your lats have to do more work to keep the bar over midfoot.
I'm not really sure snatch grip DL specifically works lats, but it definitely aids hugely in troubleshooting upper back rounding and in training the DL motion after your legs and core have been beat up by squats.

depends on your goals

if you're a climber, bodyweight is great

if you're an american football player, benching is great because you're constantly pushing

if you're a rugby player squats & deadlifts brace for the scrum, which is basically a core and legs exercise

if you're a long distance runner, it's all garbage

basically, nobody fall for this shit

weighted bodyweight exercises are great though

the whole ''bodyweight only'' thing is like a cult

Given up on Conventional, gonna finish the rest of the sheiko block doing sumo.

90% single, felt ok despite being my first time doing sumo in like a year. Back was a little bit rounded, but it could be worse.

Powerlifting can be seen as a cult
Literally every community with a specific set of rules (which if not followed exclude you from it) can be seen as a cult
Stop using that silly word
This

If you don't lock your lats in on SGDL you'll round like a motherfucker.

However in my experience lat issues are mostly an issue of poor body awareness and learning to cue lat tightness fixes that. The orange cue works, but if you're still not getting it you can also set a light band up pulling the bar away from you on your warm ups, and that'll force you to cue lats or the bar pulls away from you.

It is more natural but you'll get used to it

>Giving up on conventional
Good lad

t-shirt from a pharmaceutical company, lol

clearly you havent done much reading on the subject

It can be, and to some it is. But in general it isnt. Just spend some time on the forums of gymnasticbodies and youll see what I mean

how long did you rest between attempts?
What program did you run?

Didn't notice, that is hilarious

that old man was mirin

>How do I include 2-3 days of running into my powerlifting program?
run on 2-3 days

Not sure about that, I've seen candito say that SLDL or RDLs are fine as replacements for deadlifts so I guess each of them have their own benefits over a regular deadlift.

thanx

jeez good luck with that

I love you, and powerlifting, but it's a cult. A very soft and moderate one, but a cult nonetheless.

only a few retards treat it that way, others just meme

we all know permabulking just gets you obese
