What's the best lift?
http://strawpoll.me/7297147
>>36672309
DL because higher numbers are more impressive.
>>36672312
genuinely rustled
>>36672322
all right thanks, still hoping it'll magically heal itself but.. yeah
>>36672309
Makes poll. Doesn't include strict press or any of the Olympic lifts.
DIAF
>>36672309
OHP
>>36672309
Squat is objectively the coolest, most technical lift
Inb4 subjective
>>36672355
>>36672370
>>>/stg/
>>36672355
>>36672370
but ... /plg/
not /fit/ / /stg/
>>36672390
>/plg/ will never return to the glory day when /stg/ was created and /plg/ was literally perfect
>>36672405
Remake stg.
Pre-trappy chan /fit/ was good though. Sigh
>>36672370
On that note, I just got done with 60x6x6 standing OHP, EASY AF.
>>36671241
It was just a warehouse you dong.
>>36672432
/stg/ never caught on properly unfortunately
and yeah agree on pre trappy
last thread bodorio was shitting on lolfedders by saying he doesnt even consider it powerlifting, could you explain filip?
>>36672309
Bench, of course.
>>36672463
Just ipf memeing
>>36672455
Stg didn't catch on because it was 99% noobs.
They were happy to leave plg and then they realized none of them knew anything so they all came back.
>>36672383
no bench is
>>36672309
GO SQUAT GO
>>36672480
>memeing
Uhhh
>>36672476

>>36672489
Also most threads started with trip hate so fuck them anyway

'no'
>>36672480

>>36672463
The problem with Filip is sweden was abducted by aliens and replaced by an alien version of it (look it up elves and fairies used to do it to irish thats why they drink all the time), and Fil is posting from alien mothership now, but they took away his trips and his accounts, I know this because he astral projects to my gym every time I lift and provides gentle emotional support
>>36672309
Squat because when you do squats everything is getting bigger. Even your penis.
>>36672432
There was an /stg/ in the catalog recently and I bumped it. Cba to check if it's still around.
>>36672480
>>>>>memeing
>>36672463
>>36672480
you honestly dont think he believes in what he said tho
Tbh everyone that does a thing is interested in other people that do that thing
lolfeders or even equipped are not comparable so interest goes down
bodorio makes it into bait by saying its not powerlifting but really its just that its not our section of powerlifting
I predict the poll will end
33% squat
33% bench
33% deadlift
>>36672309
Squat
OHP/Dead
Bench

kek really, i never even paid attention to them, just shilled them in here to get the fuckers out

>>36672497
That dude is admirable as fuck. Bench is the second coolest. Honestly I love all 3. Squat is where it's at tho
>>36672506
What's the likelihood that Phil, George, and Joe, our most dedicated memers, like the ipf because of it being anything other than an opportunity to meme?
>>36672572
See, I agree with the mentality you think he has, but I think he really does consider ipf powerlifting itself, not a federation of a common sport, despite being explicit in the name
>>36672597
Yeah dude that's fine, can't say you're wrong. But you can't say trips don't help keep discussion alive too. We're just a community here mayne. Don't step on me to try to lift yourself up.
>>36672602
Yeah :/
>>36672520
>and provides gentle emotional support
sounds like phil Tbh
>>36672573
That doesn't make sense. Deadlift is objectively shit and only a severely mentally handicapped person would choose it.
We need rules for plg
Rules:
1. You shouldn't be allowed to post here if you are running SS or TM
Dubs decides the next rule.
1 rule per dubs
>tfw gyms shitter is occupied
Noooo
>>36672638
IPF only
>>36672638
No.
>>36672637
That's why only 33% of the poll will chose it
>>36672638
No IPF allowed, no "muh natty"
>>36672651
>he thinks I care about his input
Ahahah kys

Kek
>>36672638

>>36672638
I tried to include in the OP that anyone new to the thread must read the pastebin before posting, but alas...
Also, rule #1 was made by the mods a while back.
>a natty like Haack or Gibbs totaling 800kg is somehow less impressive or only equally impressive as a walking pharmacy totalling 800kg
'no'
I can only imagine that pro roids people have never played another sport or were likely shit and rejected from them. The anti roid sentiment isn't a powerlifting thing or an IPF thing, it's an athlete thing.
>>36672623
WEED LMAO
>>36672624
I enjoy usapl much more than apf.

Explain what you did.
Grip failing is like half off my problem. You can see me starting to grip fail here.
Partially because of my tiny hands make it hard to grip the bar.
So I'm all ears for grip suggestions

>>36673180
people fail with hook grip too
>>36673156
I switched from holding the bar in my palm to holding it in my fingers like pic related. It seems like you're doing that already though. My grip started to fail me recently, but as soon as I got chalk I was able to double overhand my working reps no problem. I'd say don't switch to mixed grip until you absolutely have to when warming up/in general. I don't have anything else. Sorry famalam, I'm just too inexperienced.

I love squatting; deadlift is aite'; not a huge fan of bench press.
>>36672638
no posts allowed without fit qt attached
I wonder, is DNP banned for powerlifting?
Will you lose strength?
Will it get you banned?
>>36673210
Thats true, but it did help me immensely, when I had failing grip on deads.
>>36673176
lmao its true
Lads, I have been running this bench program where I have 3 sessions a week, 2 high volume and 1 where I do heavy triple.
When I started the triples where unpaused and the last was RPE 10.
Now, the triples are pauses and I would estimate that I can get 2 more in.
This program was without weekly peaking, as you can see, but I wonder what to do now?
Do I keep doing the weight some more time for triples or do I basically up everything now?
Or do I make a light weak and peak for 1 RM?
Or a 3RM?
I don't quite know what route to go now
>>36673235
and meanwhile a lot manage fine with mixed and there's no data supporting that hook is somehow better in anything but an individual basis
honestly don't think switching to a different grip should be the goto strategy when failing grip, that's probably not the root cause
>>36672804
>squat
get your heels down and knees out
>bench
you're not letting the bar down, you're pulling the bar down
>deadlift (sumo)
knees out fgt
>>36673214
Ah okay. I'll have to experiment with different stuff.
My deadlift will never be good but I'd like to fix my grip issues at least and stop tearing holes in my hand.

>>36673246
Add weight to the triples til you fail a week, then light week and test IMHO.
>>36673234
what the fuck do you think
>>36673305
It was too late lad im sorry
>>36673029
stupid fucking deadlifts
>>36673327
miss sheiko a bit desu
>>36673302
Go away
>>36673308
So on my heavy triples day, I work up to my usual triple weight, do a triple, and then keep doing triples with added weights until I fail the set?
And then a light deload week and then directly peaking the following week or do I do my 2 volume days as usual and then peak on the triple day?
>>36673347
Don't engage or talk to him

>>36673266
I went from double overhand to hookgrip directly, never really liked mixed.
>don't think switching to a different grip should be the goto strategy when failing grip, that's probably not the root cause
thats true tho, I just offered based on my experience
>>36673359
Correction: you actually mean add weigh to the triple weekly, not all in a session.
Sounds good.
But do I do another "cyle" of what I did then? Or is weekly peaking simply smarter?
>>36673359
I meant start adding weight to the triples week to week, but your idea is good too.
I would either skip one of your volume days or cut them innhalf for test week. No need for an entire rear week imho
>>36673372
sure it obv works for you
Thank you based S man!!!!
>>36673375
>But do I do another "cyle" of what I did then? Or is weekly peaking simply smarter?
That is hard to answer as it's fairly individual. Maybe see how your gains were over this cycle and take a couple weeks to do a weekly peaking program and see if you gain or no.

>>36673386
Alright, I will actually do this then!
>>36673407
Gains where probably slower than they could potentially have been on something like TM, but they were more ... solid.
On TM, as soon as I missed a few days and had training irregularities, I was set big hardcore and it took me weeks to get back up to where I was.
With this one I could miss days and still come back strong and solid.
Also, I have stretch marks all over my arm pits so I definitely also added muscle mass.
>>36673528
Well theres a duplicate question. People can see one of them and miss the other. We don't know how many people crossed both because of their completely shared meaning.

I'll do that next week and proceed as you suggested, like the idea of it.
Not sure if I peak when I stalled or redo my cycle with my new, successfully hit 3RM.

Tbqh familia if his training makes him competitive as a bodybuilder than yes
I don't know anything about the guy tho
>>36674058
Objectively yes. Jeff has achieved your goals better than you therefore he trains better than you.
Anyhow, our friends back angle over here was consistent and not of any worry.
I'd like to see you do a 10 second pause at such a heavy weight with good form. If you can then you are a better lifter.
But you can't so......
May also have been a one off. You can't tell your back angle until after you've finished the lift.

Who else here gets pains in his nuts when benching heavy

>You can't tell your back angle until after you've finished the lift.
you can feel it round
>I'd like to see you do a 10 second pause at such a heavy weight with good form. If you can then you are a better lifter.
I am also natural
>>36674135
>being so rude and unfriendly as to not directly reply
>you can feel it round

Sean I want you to know that if I ever met you, I would severely injure you with my bare hands.
Your 175cm, 77kg twink frame would snap like a fucking twig.

Meet outside Hard Rock Cafe, Toronto. Any time you want.

Can't really ignore it as it feels like my balls are retracting through barbed wire and broken glass.
is it true that a very wide grip/ max legal grip bench is only worth doing when doing equipped benching, and that when raw benching its more dangerous and not as efficient?
>worst lift won
>>36674226
It's more dangerous but that's about it afaik
Do what you want, fuck your elbow yada yada

I like bench the best. I think it also gives the most rewards aesthetically speaking. As far as actual benefits go, I think it's deadlift. It trains a huge portion of your body and translates directly into real life scenarios where you have to pick up, say, kitchen appliances off the ground.

good. very good
>>36672432
are you seriously saying that before someone who posts almost always on topic, /fit/ was good? /fit/ has never been good. when i first went on /fit/ like 5 years ago it was bad.

>baseball

>DL gone from my favourite to least favourite lift
guess which is progressing the worst right now
>>36674358
>that's like saying if i go to the gym and have a skills test i just "competed in powerlifting"
people literally think this tho
even further they just think they have to train s/b/d with the intention of progressing without the need of even doing a mock meet to call themselves powerlifters
what is wrong with them
they are literally in this thread too which makes it even worse
>>36674468
