>squat max test edition
Decided to break up my max testing into separate days this week, as I'm not competing for quite some time and it'd be better for seeing what my actual maxes are for the upcoming training cycle. So, here was squat day.
No commentary this time, mostly because I wanted to play with sound effects again. Probably gonna have a commentary on the next episode, which will be testing out my bench max.
Music from Pokemon Gen 1(GB).
>>35487920
Good lift, but
>that heel movement
wew
>>35487920
Bruh that was not your max, moved way too easy. I think you might have had the 385 or possibly more tbqh.
>>35487920
you really should have had that 385. It looked like you got to your sticking point and just quite immediately.
>>35488003
The 365 started to do the hurty glutes thing. 385 and 375 were both too much and I couldn't get my hips in to get it to lockout. It will get better, I'm working on taking care of all the knotted stuff and doing regular stretching/trigger work on my posterior, plus I get a few more calories to boot.
>>35487920
good job on sticking to a programme breh
>>35488075
>programme
Kill yourself.
>>35488075
Thanks, anon.
I'm gonna run another cycle of cube after this one, too. Swapping a few things out (high bar for front squats, rdl for sldl, rows for pulldowns, and possibly pulling sumo).

air dry, used mine for a month or so and smell like new more or less
>>35488133
Not really. Just gonna up from 1600/2000 to 2000/2400. The plan is to see if I can stay close to 198 and continue to progress and only add kcal as needed.

been there
High cal protein bars are nice, like Goodlife bars. Yoghurt is nice for bulking, almost too nice.
Naturell kvarg+chopped almonds+chopped walnuts+honey+diced pear is a very nice snack. Almost got myself broke eating it every night for a month.

point there though, i can actually have quark in other ways
fucking reached the point where I maintain if i don't force something more down
hey phil i saw this gif and thought of you
>>35489010
I really don't understand lowbar. The whole movement feels clunks and awkward to me. I have watched all the relevant videos on the form but I am still terrible.
How do I make the transition? How much am I supposed to exaggerate breaking at the hips? How can I make use of my highbar developed quads when it's supposed to be from the hips?
>>35488881
Did you see the video? That shit was pretty scary тьн lád
>>35489007
ahahaha holy shit it actually was topkek fucking CURRY EATING NIGGER BTFO
topkek how does it feel not being able to DEADLIFT twice bodyweight
>>35489026
Right at the start there's a bit more of a sit-back, but you don't need to exaggerate it. Maybe focus more on spreading your knees if you're not used to that. It might be a little more hip dominant, but it's still an overall quad dominant movement.
>>35489016
>aren't these pricey as shit? i'll look into it
yes they are but I've seen some fitness girls make their own, can't be too hard tBh
>yoghurt
>quark
how is that even bulking food lol, top ramen is top bulking food like 400 cals each package and you down 2 pretty easily and probably 3 if you're a big guy like bodyoreo
>>35489026
>How much am I supposed to exaggerate breaking at the hips?
not much at all
people overstate how different they are desu, you sit back a little bit more in lowbar than highbar but that's it, if you sit back too much you become weak as shit or you go full geared
>>35489016
>aren't these pricey as shit? i'll look into it
You can always find some kind of deal.
Best deal i got was 14 goodlife bars for 99kr.
Wat. If you eat two normal meals plus night snack and some yoghurt and shit you should be gaining weight tbH

just been having the yoghurt quark breakfast + two big meals, seeing as i'm maintaining more or less now adding something for a night snack should do it
peanuts was a while ago, still hate peanuts
but i can
>>35489052
>>35488970
Yeah, what is your point
Rolan has measured his bf being around 10.9% in that pic and weight he said UNDER 200LBS
Jesse is clearly in the 7-8% range
>>35487832
What's up with that complete shit form in OP pic...
>>35489056
Always respect the weight. He threw it arround like he was trying to bend the bar
>>35489042
>>35489038
I may have been doing the attention whore woman thing and sticking my ass back too far.
Thanks,senpai. Now maybe I can work to being relevant at a meet.
Oh... befoee I go, also having a hard time cutting depth. I was trained in my teens to atg squat and I find it hard to not go so low. I feel weaker when I hit power sqauat depth. I assume this wil get better? There's a huge disparity between my highbar weight and my lowbar weight because of this.
>>35488785
how the fuck are you so strong
>>35488973
I have no idea, I was eating a lot, but not garagebro-style
I'm fine now, blood sugar is back to normal, but I had to cut down a weightclass and start eating healthy and low-GI, I'm feeling great and I'm not on any medication, so it could've been worse

>>35489104
going too low is a meme. utilize the stretch reflex. trying to artificially limit your depth is only going to do bad things. if it really bother you then widen your stance until you barely hit depth and don't squat in heels. still dumb imo though ROM isn't everything.

Honest question, how can you guys stand the shitty form and utter lack of ROM on lifts like the bench, especially in competition? It makes the whole PL thing look stupid.
>>35489583
Glad you feel that way
>>35489583
Usually stub-arms who can achieve a really tiny bench rom have deadlifts that cost twice as much on their total than they gain on their bench
>>35489562
I mean, I doubt it'll be the end of the world either way. But remember that you are going heavy'ish in the next 2-4 days and you shold really taper for next week.
>>35489583
it's just people taking advantage of how they are built, can't really be upset about that as long as they are obeying the rules. also, like Bodorio said, it's a give and take.
>>35489473
adidas powerlifts 2.0, the cheapest and the ones with the smallest heel. They're good tho, they're holding up really well
>>35489594
>tfw lock out at balls but genie forgot to grant the bench gains
My gf is 5'7 150. 26 years old.
Pulls 315 for 3 standard DL form.
ATG squats 225 for 8.
Has hit 175 on bench for 1.
Should she bother competing or training for competition? Are those decent lifts for her size in women's PL? She's losing motivation with nothing to train for at this moment.
>>35489388
Is this only true at elite levels? I've been focusing on bench hard in the last training cycle and my DL has still gone up. Extra back work for the bench surely carries over to DL?
>>35489661
she's strong af, but that doesn't matter. I think everyone should compete regardless
>>35489667
Err, sorry lads, I meant to quote
>>35489367
>>35489661
>She's losing motivation with nothing to train for at this moment.
thats reason enough then Tbh
PLG is objectively the worst of all the general threads, no one responds to legit powerlifting related questions and instead the only discussion is about the retards that frequently post here
im a lad and i lost my virginity a couple days ago but i now regret not holding out for someone better desu :(
>>35489647
I have long arms, bad for benching, but I lock out relatively high too. It's all a proportion thing
>>35489756
that's not true at all. We tend to ignore all those SS-related questions because that's simply not our subject. I think you can get some pretty good knowledge you rarely find elsewhere by asking here
>>35489756
What, absolute b8 like 'lol powerlifter ROM'?
>>35489583
because ROM is not indicative of a good, bad, easy, or hard lift and having a larger ROM is literally no more impressive than a smaller one.
>>35489756
oddly enough, nobody here has any obligation to answer your questions.
>>35489777
>I have long arms, bad for benching

>>35489900
>both for your own mental health and my jimmies
oh of course, ive just never actually checked
>>35489821
I actually wouldn't mind doing Ruffletoe's meet next year that's squat/ohp/deadlift. It'd be fun to focus on the ohp for a month or two. I'm still not entirely clear on the judging of the lift though.
So I think heels-up benching is what's causing my patellar tendonitis. I know I could just go heels-down, but heels-up is the way I feel most stable and strong.
Has anyone dealt with this before?
>>35489667
Afaik it usually depends on your level, yes. Putting one or two lifts on hold to increase frequency/volume (and recovery) on the third.
>>35489862
y doe laddie
>>35489968
Yes, but it just fucked off after a while, so I don't have any helpful suggestions.

Powerlifting shouldn't be called power lifting without any power lifts.
I think powerlifting should scrap the deadlift and replace it with power cleans.
If you object to this than you're a retard

>>35490132
Oh. Don't worry friend. It's going to be glorious.
Powerlifting should be
>Bench press
>Overhead press
>Power clean
Squats and deadlifts are so shit
>>35490110
Replacing deads with cleans would actually be pretty fun.
>>35490141
>not bench, incline, incline dumbbell
>>35490141
>Overhead press
>Power clean
so clean and jerk split into two lifts?
>>35490194
You're right.
It should be
>Benxh press
>Push press
>Power clean
We don't want your push press being a limiting factor in the clean

So youd suck her dick instead
what a fag
looking at the /plg/ atlas in the OP, looks like a lot of people from the IL/OH/MI area.
would be pretty dope if we could find a meet to do together somewhere in the Chicago/Northern Indiana area in 2016.
Just accidentally PRed on squats lads. New gym has 55 lb plates and I didn't realize. Did a 10 lb PR for two singles 30 sec apart.
>>35490687
I would be so down for that. I'd love to do it at the Arnold or sumfin
>>35490784

Im doing a meet in milwaukee here in a week or so with a plg dude.
>>35490870

>>35490870
>a plg dude
>when joe won't call you by name

>>35490894

>>35490949

>>35490953
im playing vidya with some people from another general.
>>35490964
that would be sweet desu.
Been lifting for about 11 months now, trying to get into this powerlifting thing, besides for being the fattest person alive how am I doing?
BW 230-->275-->235
Squat 155--->415
Bench 175--->295
Deadlift 315----475
>>35490987
theres no need to lie on the internet
>>35491008
Not lying but I guess I'm doing good then.
I weigh 85kg and my stats are:
85kgx5 bench
110kgx5 squat (had to fix my hips and changed to, still shit though)
145kgx5 deadlift
Did greyskullLP for 8 months and a brosplit before. I feel like I can't make gains anymore. What program should I do? I've been on a surplus the whole time.
>>35491171
*Changed to low bar
>>35490964
Midwest is best, baby. Anyone needs a gym to train at, I got a few guest passes. Could use some irl form tips/mobility work as well. Columbus is my home.
>>35491239
>>35490964
Do you guys wanna meet up and tag team my girlfriend Amber while I watch?
>>35491171
How many times have you reset on GSLP?
>>35491260
I'd rather use some of my excess guest passes (I signed up on Black Friday and it must've been deal central) and get a few workouts in. Will be posting more often. PLG has helped me anonymously start up my Powerlifting. But I do need to get laid as well, lol. I'd rather throw a party and do a mock meet with a bunch of Midwest Master Race brethren.
>>35487832
Is that proper form?
>>35487832
>Supermong RIP
did he actually die?
>>35491325
Roid induced heat attack
>>35491353
At least his shit form didnt paralyze him
>>35491299
you realize thats sean right?
>>35491415
OH IS IT, I HAD NO IDEA, THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP, ANON
>>35491415
Oh.. well, he is from Toronto so he can come on by, too. If he was actually cool. No sketchballs. I will be at thr Arnold, should I wear something to identify? And PLG related, how should I go about maxing out? I hit 375 easy deadlift and am getting my strength back very fast. Would it be bad to max out this Friday again or should I max out next Friday? Wanna hit 405 and then work my way up again.
>>35491442
we should all wear pepe hats
>>35491442
>I will be at thr Arnold, should I wear something to identify
you can figure that out when it gets a little closer lel. you should all wear pic related tho
>how should I go about maxing out
just warm up with like
135x5
225x3
315x1
355 or 365x1
???
>>35491463
>>35491489
I will be wearing pic related.
And yeah, I noticed my body really likes singling my way up by about 10 pounds. Wasn't sure if that's what I should keep doing, though. I worked up to from 315 (which was my current max post time off) to 375 by ten pounds each set. So, like 7 or 8 sets of singles. Just hoping it's not harmful.
>>35491489
Have a concrete goal in mind first tbH
>>35491530
flyers as in dayton flyers?
>>35491559
Wear that in memory of my Grandma who just passed away. She was born and raised in Dayton and left when she was 22 when she married my Grandpa.
>>35491587
so then where are you?
>>35491592
Northwest Columbus.
>>35491613
shieet man i was just in cbus for melt and AMC easton.
>>35491627
Damn, bruh. Next time you're up here hit me up, no joke. I'm in need of some friends. Tough times going on.
>>35491656
well i wont be there for awhile.
Moving back to toledo for uni soon.
Will def be going to the arnold though.
Have you ever been to the melt?
>>35491656
can we have a familia union in cbus in march plx
Day 82 blog:
Skwot: 135x1, 225x1, 315x1, 405x1, 455x1, 485x1
Last squat was literally like that fucking /fit/ comic where the dude is like "somethin ain't right" and then he hallucinates rippletits saying "hip drahve" and rockets up with thrusters on his ass. Basically the same thing happened. Don't have it saved, but you guys know the one. Driving my back into the bar finally made sense in that moment.
Front skwot: 225x1, 295x3, 315x1, 365(PR)x1, 385x0, lost my tightness. Might make a webm of the PR later.
Did a bunch of press volume stuff. Things other than competition lifts, pull ups, and front swuats feel like fucking around, but I need bigger muscles.
Glute work.
>>35491689
what gyms in cbus are there?
I only know of iron life gyms like westside and ludus magnus which i could get into because of my contacts but probably not you guys.
Is there a gym that allows randos to come and lift for the day? would be cool to arrange something.
>>35491678
Nah, I hear shit about it. Still don't know what the fuck it is after all this time. Some rave, if I remember right. Yeah, well, I'll be at Lifetime on Henderson for pretty much forever. Starting up after long lay off. Will be hitting some good numbers soon.
>>35491689
Yes, if you guys aren't Hannibal Lectors and play your cards right we can go get birthday shots and throw a (semi late) 21st b-day get together.
>>35488864
What's wrong with basketball shorts? They're flowy and comfy af, on the same tier as wearing sweats to the gym. Not to mention they're much better than those little bitchboi meme shorts that zyzz wannabes wear.
>>35491717
I got like a retarded amount of guest passes for some reason. Keep getting "LT Points" whatever the fuck that is. So, yeah. We can train at this commercial gym but I'm allowed to set my cambered up and we got the basics.
>>35491729
>Some rave
its a grilled cheese restaurant.
Good "the melt bar and grilled"
some of the best shit youll ever eat.
>>35491747
I saw you post that, lol. Let's go to a real resturant like Schmidt's or Morone's.
>>35491741
You've got pissening legs, right? Flaunt them bitches.
>>35491743
This guy is currently memeing in another thread about grip strength and is mostly likely an instacancer sean immitator just for your information and to be honest family members.
>>35491729
>squats and shots
sounds like a fun day
>>35491797
Nah, it's actually legit. I got nothing to hide. I literally posted enough information to prove it's me. Even a pic without my face, but still.
>>35491780
What shorts are god tier though that don't feel tight or obstruct your squat?
>>35491834
Mesh running shorts with the muay thai side-split or rugby shorts. And you don't have to worry about looking like a cross-country twink because you actually have legs.
>>35491797
btw, I will be catching a Deadlift session with the OP of that thread so thanks for looking out but they're fine.
>>35491808
Bud, brahs, beer, broads, boobs, bowls, bongs, and yeah, that sounds about right.
>>35491834
nekkid squats
>>35491852
and BENCHES cmon senpai
>>35491866
Jeah!
>>35491834
Tights.
>>35491851
Alright, i'll give em a look when i do my annual clothes shopping
>>35491855
Gotta squat low enough for your balls to dip the ground f a m
>>35491923
Surely you wear something over them?
>>35491940
That would defeat the purpose of wearing them - so you're not obstructed by shorts. As long as you wear something under them and don't buy shitty thin ones, I've never had an issue. I do wear fairly long t-shirts, though.
Tried to do too much hiit today abd feel sick now lads l.
Also, what is buttwink and should you always stop your squat depth before you do it? It happens a little below paralell for me, is there any reason to go deeper?
>>35492018
Low bar - no. You only have to squat to parallel in competition, so train how you're gonna compete.
High bar/Front squat - optional. Full ROM will train your muscles better overall, but might ingrain bad motor patterns of squatting too deep. I prefer to do ATG on these just to get the full worth of the movement, and just be careful about depth on competition squats.
Trying to go ATG on low bar is gonna give you buttwink unless you have gymnast mobility. If you're worried about it, just stretch your hammies and see how that goes.
My 2c, I guess.
>>35491983
Any brand recommendations then brah? Come to think of it, the only ones i do have are the shitty thin ones you just described.
>>35492104
I have a couple pairs of Adidas ones 'cause I get a discount, and I'm pretty happy with them.
http://www. adidas. com. au/supernova-graphic-long-tight-men/AA0594.html
>>35492104
Also Virus seems to get a good rep? Although that could be bias - I'm partial to Massthetics, and you can get a discount code for Virus from their videos.
For the bored and the lonely, here is the daily squat and press.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTyS4GBTN40
Took off yesterday to prep for 2nd semester of school. Felt good today.
2 PR's.
Beltless Paused Squat, got 435 for a double.
Bench Press, got 275x10.
Did some chin-ups and curls, and got out in under an hour.
Been excited to squat and press every day again. I'm just hitting a solid top set with no back-off work for now.
Back to lifting in my old high school weight room for part of the week. Fun times :)
