Why are powerlifters so fat?
>>36979836
because you picked a bunch of heavyweights with no weight limits
>>36979836
they like to permabulk
I'd love to start powerlifting but I don't want to get fat and ugly,

No professional powerlifter has ever outlifted a professional weightlifter? Powerlifting is literally the biggest meme sport of the decade
>muh functional strength
>muh strength
The only thing girls in real life care about are aesthetics, and pretty much all weightlifters are super ripped
>>36980289
Considering there's no such thing as a professional powerlifter, that isn't surprising.
>>36980295
Benedikt Magnusson makes a lot of money the last time i checked
>>36980309
Not from powerlifting events.
>>36980320
He deadlifts and squats so he's a powerlifter
>>36980289
yes because girls are the only reason anybody does anything
cool projecting tho anon i'm sure you live a fulfilling life
>>36980289
Power lifting is in the olympics though..
>>36980738
Lmao only the Paralympics
>>36979883
Are you not supposed to loosen it immediately or something?
>>36979836
Why are weightlifters?
>>36982579
When you're in the top weight class, you won't fucking care.
>>36979836
Why do newbie power lifters always take the bait?
>>36980289
>functional strength
Literally no power lifter talks about functional strength you stupid fuck
>weightlifting
lmao, completely full of roided up manlets
>>36980309
>benedikt magnusson is a powerlifter
Kill yourself
>>36982656
On top of your weightclass, bottom of the rankings
>>36982579
Lel, the guy to the left looks like a fat Paul McCartney

What I always wondered, is if a powerlifter hit a world record in squat, then slowly lost fat, wouldn't they be able to add the weight of fat they lost to the bar, as their legs and back are lifting less weight as they lose fat?
>>36979869
then eat clean
>>36979869
Are you the sort of guy who wants to lift weights but doesn't want to too bulky? Like it happens overnight with no effort and you have no control over what happens.
>>36982579
So should lu xiaojun be 2% body fat instead of 7% body fat when he snatches 176kg?
>>36983227
no because if a powerlifter lost 20kg their strength would half.
>>36983392
nah get out of it, it's no where near that significant. plus if they did it slowly, like half a pound a week, they'd hardly notice strength loss, right?
>>36980289
This is what happens when you spend too much time on /fit/ and take everything seriously. The memes have literally eaten your brain out.
>>36983403
sorry to break it to you but it doesn't work like that. Why don't fat powerlifters just cut? They have more muscle than bodybuilders. They lose strength, recovery efficiency, and most importantly, weight distribution which helps them throw around weight and anchor them to the floor, centre of mass, etc. Not to mention cushioning, getting away with shitty range of motion. Yeah, sumo lifters can be lean, they lift the bar 2 inches off the ground. Heavy squatters are almost always fat fucks though. Powerlifting is a joke.
>powerlifters
not even once lol

>average powerlifter
>guy is not a powerlifter
top kek
Most people just want abs. Its such an quick goal to achieve. Literally 3-4 months of p90x is all you need to do for most and then its easy breezy dieting for maintenance.
Theres no speeding up powerlifting naturally. Its all long term and consistency.
Might as well disregard diet until you're satisfied with lifts. This process is easy 5-7 years for most.

I had a picture of a strongman who was a dead ringer for Elton John. Can't find it.
>>36979836
>>36979862
There's only ONE (1) powerlifter in these pictures.
Guess who it is.

>>36983467
Eddie Hall isn't really the best example. He munches on snickers and doesn't really follow a proper diet. He eats whatever he feels likew.
>>36983450
I just googled it and Klokov is actually 6'0".
Lanklets+manlets BTFO.
Optimal male height wins again.
>>36979895
damn, im no sumo hater but this nigga barely moved the bar LOL
>>36983450
i seriously can't tell if you fuckers are baiting or not. the only fat powerlifters are the ones in the heavyweight classes, stop fucking cherrypicking.
i can say the same shit about weightlifters if i cherry pick too >>36982579

Only people that compete in the IPF are competing in powerlifting, by definition, thus are the only powerlifters.
The person on the left in the OP is the powerlifter. T
>>36984222
>this fucker claims natty and gets away with it in a tested fed
fuck this world
>>36983467
Nice kek. Never even thought it could be presented like that
>>36984291
He doesn't claim natty. He doesn't comment on it.
>>36984307
He does compete in a tested fed, which is even worse than simply saying it.
>>36983913
Is that Elton john?
>>36984582
not sure if this image is turbo bait or the author was just this retarded
Lack of discipline.
>>36979978
this, sumo is disgusting

That just makes you wonder how good is Brett Gibbs steroid cycle/coach/training.
He already surpassed Castillo's total, a multiple times world champion and known steroid user. Also, Castillo has been competing since 2008
