/PLG/ - Powerlifting General

We don't need this thread, we already have an fph thread going

it's docdroid, hosts PDFs where you can read them without downloading lol.
Leg press, hyper extensions, leg curls, GHR, all that sort of stuff.

A 350 lbs bench and a 220 lbs Press are quite a bit more impressive than a 500 lbs deadlift

Why did you change the standards?

bench press is the best gauge of RAW PHYSICAL STRENGTH. you only downplay this because you're a pudgy, weak little shit of a manlet with an equally embarrassing bench press.

nobody gives a shit that you can bounce your morbidly obese gut off of your legs for your little bullshit wide stance "squat". nobody cares about your 5 inch ROM sumo "deadlift".

bench. press. is. king.

Just be happy its not a 405 bench and a 315 OHP. it should follow the pl8 standards, so if he kept a 5pl8 squat as the baseline, it should be 3/4/5/6 as the standards

bodybuilding = cool
powerfatting = gay

Hey OP, you ever heard of Westside Barbell?

OP is clearly a retard faggot and not one of the usual ones. Most powerlifters know Westside Barbell though. Why do you ask?

I... I don't want to Stone Press anymore guys. I want to lift a barbell. I miss the gym.

don't worry, you won't lose too much progress. your 1 plate bench press will be safe for a while.

Hank only wishes he were me. That's why he immediately responds every time I mention him. He just wants his mote of attention from Senpai FIGGY in order to imagine what it's like to actually be a strong, widely respected tripfriend. He usually doesn't LINK my posts directly, because he's incredibly tsundere and also a raging autism.

>First thing you want to do is grip the bar
Thanks Dan. I don't know how I'd be able to Standing The Press without this pro level advice.

He immediately responds because he's your phone posting alter ego.

Anyone here actually do Olympic lifts like power cleans or snatch to supplement their deadlift?

Doesnt do anything for the deadlift

for fun sometimes. treat it like a speed pull.

Yeah, Hank/Figgy/Hank jr./whatever the fuck character that faggot's playing is entirely too predictable.

>show up
>spam stupid shit mentioning hank
>posts pictures of anime girls
>accuse others of being hank whenever they call him out for being a faggot
>repeat ad nauseam

It's the most pathetic combination of obsession/autism these generals have ever seen. He's like a fatter, shorter, more stupid version of Sean.

I'm 6'3" and my back REALLY hurts if I do deadlifts or squats with the wrong form. I've been referencing this gif but a lot of the time it feels like this "correct" way to do it is causing me more pain. I'm progressing with overhead press and bench press no problem but squatting and deadlifting have me beat.
What should I do as a tall guy? Wider stance? Angled legs? Wider grip? What am I missing?

>Wider stance?
yes
>Angled legs?
legs should always be angled
>Wider grip?
yes

>for fun sometimes.
It is fun, but it has never felt like it contributed anything to my pull. Feels like a waste to have done them during SS when most powerlifting routines do not require them.

I'll try them tomorrow user, thank you. How angled should my feet be?

>why do i experience physical pain when i exercise with shit form

It depends on you and your stance. Turn them out as far as you need them to be

>I've been referencing this gif of some dyel mens fitness model scrub whos got lateral movement in his knees squatting 10lbs
theres your problem. guy looks to be like 3.5pl8 tall too
>What should I do as a tall guy? Wider stance? Angled legs? Wider grip? What am I missing?
Who fucking knows? post a video of your squat instead of some ambiguous descriptions and a gif image of someone your clearly not able to mimic.

>tfw searching for a ultrawide squat stance image you find an old teammate at nationals used on SS website, that then leads to an image of you squatting at nationals
interesting

Do snatch grip deadlifts have any place as a powerlifting accessory

Yes

No

I know that's you Isley you seething bastard

Fuuuuuuuuuuuck my brain

not the most useful

check the title of the video
it's not loli porn

this is bullshit I only did cleans for a couple of months and added 10kg onto my DL going from hookgrip+belt and chalk to double overhand with no belt or chalk

>lists chalk like chalk is a grip booster
gde detected

great user your deadlift went from 110->120kg in 3 months with only doing cleans

if chalk doesnt help grip why do people use it?

Do you understand why training the powerclean makes you stronger?

To dry your hands

which doesnt help your grip?

guys how do I get a goth gf?

you can have dry hands without chalk

brooo listen to me if you dont double overhand your max with sweaty hands and no clothes off of a 10inch deficit its not raw bro and youre cheatinng

click your heels 3 times and go fuck yourself, retard.

why do people in comp use chalk then

To reduce the time to dry your hands you goofball

if chalk wasnt allowed people would just wait way longer to dry their hands. Chalk doesnt have some magic property that improves grip

How much do you deadlift

Or you could improve your grip strength to avoid slipping. My point is that cleans helped add to grip strength and power off the floor which transfers to deadlift. The absence of aiding factors in chalk and belt on the later attempt is meant to illustrate that it improved my deadlift by a larger factor

I've never been to a gym, should I start trying?

cleans would only help if you have a beginner deadlift, but then again anything would help a beginner deadlift

nobody with a strong deadlift does cleans, this is because the mechanics are vastly different

is you name cody?

No.

no. now fo away
