LOL FUCKING BETA AND OBSESSED
MY FUCKING SIDES
So let me get this straight: Josh Hancott trained PL for 2 fucking years, and then hit an open squat record as a junior, that no one has been able to touch since? As in a goddamn Canadian kid with a blown out back is the strongest 74kg squatter in the IPF? Christ, you guys give him flack, but he literally tried harder until his back broke, and the results show. If you're not dealing with a serious debilitating injury, you're weak and not trying hard enough, so shut the fuck up and try harder.
Is training for more than 2 hours counter productive? i hear shit about muscle breaking down and stuff. And yes, i am dumb.
Don't reply to the 2 posts above me
>>37862193
>yfw no one will EVER touch hancotts open squat record for all of eternity
>>37862195
"Maybe" but no, not really, plenty of people here have marathon gym sessions. It's not super sustainable long term but it's not going to really set you back either.

Tips for a beginner power lifter so I don't mess everything up before I start?
Stats:
18
148 lb bodyweight
Squat: 320
Bench: 215
Deadlift: 400
Form check? If you feel inclined, tell me what to fix.

anything to eat during the workout/training session?
>>37862284
>2 hours
>rush
Wtf is this programming
>>37862331
I lift for 2 hours and never end up feeling hungry, thirsty yeah.
Some electrolyte drinks maybe and stuff perhaps. You can buy tubs of sports drink powder which is cheaper.
No point eating you'll be sick
>>37862331
Gummy candies, the go-to PL carb source.
>>37862344
Why do you switch between bro and briny
Why do you even know about bronys
>>37862344
I'd define rushing as doing it faster than i would like to. resting 2 minutes when you would perform better when you rest 3-4-5 minutes seems like rushing, doesn't it?

Grilled PB and banana sandwich with a whey shake for brekkies.

this. Jeff Hancock is my favorite ex-IPF lifter
>>37862438
I generally use Optimum Nutrition whey. Dunno if it's better or worse than others, but the chocolate tastes good, as does the vanilla. Don't buy rocky road, though (or any of the other "exciting" flavors, for the most part), it tastes like cancer.
I like to mix it with a little Ovaltine, but I'm a fatass.

>Are you in Japan or something?
No, I just saw a clickbait article called "The Most Wholesome Breakfast You're Too Afraid To Try" and I would do literally anything if someone told me I couldn't or dared me to, so I immediately tried it, and it's incredible.
Way too rich to be a breakfast imo though, it tastes (and has the mouthfeel of) like HEAVILY buttered rice, I like having it as a lunch or latenight snack.
>>37862143

Strongman isn't a clean completion. The rules and boundaries are loose and vague and the competitors are cheaters (roiders) because it's a show sport.
Powerlifting is a strength sport, which I enjoy, which tries its best to give me an equal playing field and rule set.

I guess this is what happens in the public california school system. Good luck getting out of that, lad. Hopefully you can talk to them and get your scholarship back.
I remember when I was in school after I finished 180 semester credits and still hadn't graduated, they took my scholarship away and said it was because it was only a 4 year scholarship. Then I told them I had only been there for 3 1/2 years and they gave it back.

They pay them for every world record, not by how much they break it by. He said it in an interview that he was good for way more than he's done in comp

THE MYSTERIES
CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT IT MEANS
>>37864587
No. Anyway, what's wrong with chicken, yogurt, and rice?
>>37864602
nobody cares.
>>37864613
When that chicken yogurt and rice has been silently fermenting as an army of bacteria grows. That same bacteria is now in your body, ready to kill your gains

Lel that was my reaction to the third matrix as well
Doing bench on sepparate days, want to be only bench, but I like lifting so what could I do on my Offbench days?
Bench sessions are just pec,tri and some shoulders

Ready to improve my natty defenses, you mean?
Been researching lots about powerlifting, and decided to come here to ask a few questions.
1. So, working in higher percentages for fewer reps works more on neural efficiency, correct? Would that mean doing 2x2 at 95% wouldn't make me stronger, but rather just make me able to more efficiently lift heavier weights?
2. Would doing, say, 5x3 at heavier weights than 3x5 be better for powerlifting specificity? Same total volume, but total tonnage is higher. This makes my muscles work harder plus adds some to neural efficiency, right?
Thanks in advance!
THIS DOG WILL TURN AROUND AND
BIIIIIITE YOU

All of this means fuckall in the end.
Just lift with more intensity and volume until you can't handle it anymore, deload, and start over again until you get bigger and stronger.
