first for friendship
Lads I got in a car accident and hit my knee. The doctors said it wasn't anything serious but I should stay away from heavy lifting for couple of months. So, in 2.5 months my squat went from 210kg to 160kg.
What now?
>>34897689
you'll build that strength up again much faster than you did originally. Lifting is more motor control than muscle size after all.
Just make sure you wear appropriate knee protection during your exercises to ensure you don't inflame the injury.
Also don't start heavy lifting unless you get the go ahead from your doctor/Physio
>>34897678

Guys I have some bad news
You know how sparrow hasn't been posting for weeks now? Yeah well..
I regret to inform you that she has taken her own life as of four days ago
May our prayers be with her
>>34897744
Rest in pieces ;_;
>>34897710
How long would you estimate it takes to make a full recovery?
>>34897734
Scolopendras are cute! Cute!
Anyone got any tips for developing a more consistent deadlift?
I have no confidence when it comes to performing heavy deadlifts. I tend to psych myself out because I don't know if my lower back remains in the right position. I'm a taller guy (6'1") and I have a long torso, I don't feel like I'm achieving a proper hip drive, the movement is always slow.
>>34897754
from the injury? Idk, that is a question for your doctor/Physio.
To get your squat back up to 210? 3-4wks I would think.
So injury recovery time + a month.
Do Smolov for your bench in the meantime bro
>>34897775
video yourself at light weight, medium weight and heavy weight.
compare them yourself, or post them here.
>>34897754
Last year I had to stop squatting for around 2 months too. Didn't take long to get back on track desu, by the 5th month after the injury I was already hitting PRs
>>34897734

What an absolute madman. Looks like the platform was elevated too
>>34897788
He probably fucked up his steroid cycle and couldn't pass the drug tests so he came up with an excuse to not participate in olympics.
qt just moved seats to sit with me

Chat her up desu
how to get into deadlifting?
I'm 18, 178cm, 68 kg. I used to go to the gym when I was 14, 15 and 16 bit I never did deadlifts then because my brother didn't think it was safe.
Now I want to do them but I remember when I used to go to the gym any leg exercises that involved knee movement hurt my knees a lot. Should I steer clear of deadlifts?
Also, what do you think I lift to start with?
Sorry if these are stupid questions I just know fuck all about deadlifting
>>34897955
Vvagina fuck fartface
>>34897955
you load up a barbell with weights and then you pick it up and put it back down
>>34897963
Thats what you do it crossfit too
>>34897975
in crossfit you do it with a lightweight for an AMRAP with a time limit
in powerlifting you do it once very heavy
>>34897975
>it crossfit
fucking dyslexia shit I meant in crossfit
>>34897689
I wouldnt worry pal
Just deload and do a ton of volume and work back up slowly
7 months on from a disc herniation im maybe 85% better, hitting prs
>>34897775
Tall is good for deads
The deadlift is naturally inconsistent
Best advice is pull the weight, if it doesnt hurt during or after then youre doing it efficient enough to move the weight and stay injury free
Other than that train back every time you lift
>>34897955
This is low quality bait
If not then load up a bar and figure out what you can lift
>>34897991
>this is low quality bait
no its just a DYEL who knows nothing ;_;

I have to pick up all the shit faggots leave all over the floor at my gym before I get to work out and it doesn't seem to interfere.
been lifting on and off for about a year, wanting to get into powerlifting but am still a bit lanky (80kg/18%bf/6"2)
is it best to do hypertrophy training to get some size then adapt it into strength training?
>>34898145
Lift heavy weight and eat füd
>>34898145
Theyre one and the same
Eat at a surplus lift weights and you will grow

vid*DOT*me/BOfC
New to powerlifting, wondering if y'all could check my form. I feel like I'm fully extending my legs too soon.
Also, shoutout to the guys on here who gave me advice the other day.
The vid above is my new PR/ gym record for 169 lb (365lbs)
>>34898550
>semi sumo
That's just a too wide conventional for people who're too lazy to learn how to sumo correctly. They would probably benefit from either doing real deadlifts or a proper sumo.
>>34898619
Jesus that bar is thick
Straightening legs ewarly js good, stops you hitching and having to lockout knees and hips at the same time which just makes the lift look and feel awful
>>34898580
when will you into wierzbicki

>>34898664
Thanks, any recommendations on wether to belt up or not?
>>34898728
Always belt up past about 70-75%, dont buy into this bullshit about trunk development
Also your shitty commerical gym bar looks thick. Dl bars are 26mm in diameter and power bars are 28mm. Shit cheap bars are like 30-32mm, knurl tends to be bad as well
Its guna hold you back

Ive never had a hernia...
>>34898849
sorry, slipped disc
Guys how do I stop new wrist wraps from tearing the skin on my wrists to shreds? Shit hurts yo
>>34898424
I'm afraid you will snap your shit up if you continue to deadlift with that atrocious form.
>>34898863
You dont, it gets less sore over time
Or you could wrap them so you look the part but they provide no suppor
what wraps do you have?
Guys, what is a secret to big biceps?
Lots of volume?
I have huge back,shoulders and legs, but my biceps is abyssmal compared to them.
What is the most effective way to them?
>>34898888
Titan golds
fuck it I'll just go R.A.W
Sure looks like /stg/ in here
Sean really brought out the big guns today
Is a 405 deadlift good for someone giving a shit about deadlifts for 6 or so months? I nearly fainted when I tried 2pl8 the first time pulling
>>34898900
Oh
The chained to the radiator look never goes away
Hell of a wrap though, 30 or 36"?
is OHP worth doing for PL?
>>34898932
only if you treat it as an assistance movement and nothing more
>>34898927
19.5" :(
>>34898932
>>34898936
what do you mean? shouldn't i try to add weight to it like bench?
>>34898937
So you have girly ones
>>34898945
leave
>>34898945
You should. Don't listen to retards like isley who can't even bench 3 plates after dedicating his life to powerlifting. Just look at Garagbro, massive shoulders, strong press and coming up on a 4 plate bench.
>>34899005
Also it seems everytime i neglect the press my bench feels shit and i hurt myself
But everyones different
Carryover isnt just weight on the bar
Is the OHP memester Dino or Sean?
>>34899042

>>34897672
>For the purpose of becoming a better athlete on the platform.
but.. isn't that oly lifting?
i thought you powerlifters just did acrobatics (webm related) and ate yourselves to obesity??
lads how do i ask a qt for a number if i only see her twice a week for like 5 minutes at a time. Does it seem desperate to ask for a number after speaking for like 1 minute?
>>34899083
what the fuck is that
>>34899102
that's an amazingly performed bench press
/plg/ is it normal to feel like shit ALL THE TIME literally? Doesn't matter if I lift or do other shit like fucking tennis or soccer or running or just rest and eat, I always feel tired and sleepy and stiff.
>>34899083
If you are tall enough and arch your back enough, can you just touch the bar in the rack and its considered a lift and thus you can now "bench" infinite amounts of weight? And would that be infinte amounts of reps in any given time interval?
>>34899124
yes, being fatigued is normal
>>34899124
Yeah, you will have down times. If it's just fatigue from lifting/work etc it's probably nothing to worry about. Watch your sleeping habits.
>>34899127
Why don't you try it and report back
>>34899102
they call that shit "powerlifting"
i call it how to "bench" 160kg while still looking like a DYEL twink.
>>34899146
I'm not tall enough :(

>implying powerlifters know how to look like anything but dog shit.
>>34899134
How do I unfatigue myself I'd like to feel good for a change. Preferably without my squat/bench dropping, I can sacrifice deadlift.
>>34899100
Not weird at all, go for it dude
>>34899174
>How do I unfatigue myself

i bet you legitimately wonder why you never get mired by women
>>34899162
>>34899182
thanks boyos
>>34899152
Oh, so you're a manlet who doesn't have any ROM? If you were shorter, could you just grip the bar in the deadlift and then be done because you're so short you don't have to lift the weight? Would that be infinite amounts of reps in any given time period?
>>34899151
You should call it "how to "bench" 182,5kg while still looking like a DYEL twink."
>>34899100
>>34899162
I would advise against complimenting her appearance. Making small benign observations about her behavior would be better. "You seem to like coffee a lot," if she's always drinking coffee or whatever. Then if she responds favorably you can chat for a minute and ask her out.
I think people like being observed like that, and it also catches them off guard a bit without being overtly #creepy
Deadlift time now...doing the sensible thing today of prioritizing deads over squats since my hips have been ruining deads if I squat first. Hope this works desu
>>34899197
>core wider than legs
Lel
That's why you stick with a side angle and good lighting, am I right?
>>34899204
>182,5kg
maybe i am blind, but i see 4x 25kg plates, and 2x20kg plates, and literally nothing else on that bar.
>>34899218
thanks for the advice
>>34899219
no, that is why you avoid heavy core work and do stomach vacuums.
oh yea, and actually exercise your lats!
holy shit, what a novel fucking concept!
you can have a slender core from a front view.
just look at aestheticfags like artemus dolgin
>>34899219
>implying you have ever been mired
>>34899083

Clearly you are blind, because the plates at the end are yellow and not blue. Also, he holds the world record in bench with 182,5 kg.

back to the land of broscience and obesity with you...
oh wait, this already is /plg/ my bad...
>>34899277
I'm looking at the rules of the bench press and it seems to satisfy all the requirements, what am I missing?
>>34899283
your core is only as wide as your pelvis fuckface
nothing you lift will change that
>>34899283
have you seen any men's physique videos on youtube? All of them train core all the time

what if the reason blacks are good at running, asians are good at oly, and whites are good at strongman/PL is because those sports are popular within their respective countries and not because of the nearly imperceptible genetic variation in terms of performance betweens the races
>>34899451
>>34899451
>what if
>>34899451
Asians are only good at oly because they roid like crazy to be honest
>>34899451
The only reason asians are good is because there are like 5 billions of them. You only have to find a few good people to make the communist party look good.
>>34899451
>>34899474
The chinese are goot at olympic lifting because its olympic, and thus prestigious, so they recruit 3 year olds and raise them in governmental programs to be ideal lifters. Also they completly dominate the spot at the low weight categories because they are smaller in general (genetics), and yes they roid like crazy with big government backup.
>>34899502
is it really that corrupt? does the government really supply them roids?
What's the health disadvantages of roids?
How do I know this isn't some bull conspiracy theory.

It's not me. I literally don't care about press desu.
>>34899520
I dont know if the chinese provide them roids. I do know for a fact that the soviets and the east german communists provided their athletes with roids though, and the chinese communists still have the same attitude towards olympics and sport. Also china is super corrupt all over the place

all american olympians are all natural though, because we're the good guys. we still get lots of medals but it's just because the good guys always win bc they pray to god and eat their vegetables
>>34899582
Right, of course that's the case pumpkin. No American athletes have EVER had medals/trophies overturned for hormonal augmentation in international competitions ever.
>>34899582
Im pretty sure almost all gold medal winners take peds. I just dont think its government backed everywhere and in many places athletes, coaches and team doctors do it at their own risk
>>34899124

I lurk these threads because I'm a fat guy losing a bunch of weight and I'm excited for when I can eat at a surplus and get stronger, but I had a good feel today. I've been struggling with my deadlift and there was a thread yesterday about them with videos that really helped me and I did 2pl8 today with ease when I was struggling before with less weight. I just finished week 6 of SL on a big cal deficit and it feels really cool.
Thanks for reading my journal.

>>34899869

>>34899876
to get to 90kg by the month and get to 100kg by the year

Why is this SJW posting during my workhour
lads i just want to remind you should never force a programmed lift on a day where you feel weirdness or slight inflammation in your joints.
garett blevins talked about this but i experience it as well. its either a bad position ive slept in or the weather but some days i can be fine and others my shoulder or hip/knees just aint havin it and you should hold off on those days.
the airpressure can literally mess you up if youre going for a heavy lift at the end of a long training cycle and youre beat up. sure a regular person wont feel sht but powerlifters and old people can have their joint inflammation flare up because of the weather.

also ignore the title of the video, it should just be "Mark Bell Fails 600lb Bench Attempt"
>>34899958
....so basically dont lift?
How can different time zones exist? it boggles the mind that its several hours later or earlier in other parts of the world. its literally time travel, it shouldn't be possible.
>>34899988
>>34899988
Well when you consider the speed at which the earth is rotating it is actually possibly that time is different in different parts of the world (time travel)
Ooh lads, sumo before squatting was real nice. Additionally I kept my flats on because I haven't tried squatting in flats in months and was curious. Felt good in them--maybe just because I associate wearing them with cueing external rotation at this point, but I felt much less caving onto my arches happening. Also no hip pain! but that's probably mostly from having done sumo directly before. I did do one set in heels and got a twinge, though.
One problem: they are just Chucks and I'm lifting on a linoleum floor, so it was too slippery. Bad idea to duct tape some high-grit sandpaper to the floor inside the cage? Is that too cheaty? For sumo I drag a long carpet into the room, but it's the wrong size for the cage.
>>34900010
Yep and technically speaking the age of your head is different than your feet
>>34899988
Get a balloon
Draw some islands around the balloon, spread them out
Shine a flash light in the balloon in the dark
Spin the balloon
There you go that's how time travel works
>>34900021
Duct tape some sandpaper on my dick omg pls
>>34900021
Flats are awful to squat in, no arch or ankle support.
Have you considered that the reason your hips hurt is because you're a woman and weighit lifting is un-feminine for a reason?
Your hips should be much larger than men's.
Anyway you should get sturdy wood to place underneath you and to deadlift on.
>>34900021
>I kept my flats on
I stand by my assertion that squat shoes are bad for low bar for most people.
>>34900021

Might be time to invest in some proper matting for under your (commune's) cage.

>>34900062
What is proper matting? Carpet fabric? Rubber? Cement? Duct taped sandpaper?
guys i sent this girl too much yaoi and now she wont talk to me.
How to salvage?
>>34899988
how is it time travel? we just made up these different time zones dude for bussiness purposes.
like i could just say its 2pm and daylight where i am now, but its dark at 2pm on this location on earth. just holding onto your own time which is more realistic, but obv this wouldnt work for the people living there they fit in the daylight hours where its actually light at their location. so that is not at all time travel.
you probably still dont understand shit of what i just said since you come up with a question like that kek
>>34900056
Oh yeah. I could just cut a plywood insert that fits perfectly inside the cage. Thanks anon.
>>34900062
I don't think you can draw any conclusions from things that I do regarding squatting. Literally just used 250lb sumo as warm-up for 115lb squats

I find the best ankle support (which is supper important in squat by the way, cause you gotta do everything you can to stop the ankle from moving) is actually from these guys.
>>34899688
Lose the belt.
Lower the weight so you can hit depth.
Try making your stance a bit closer,
Stop shffling your feet around
Try out some lifting shoes
lrn2lumbar extension.
>>34900282
Top shelf kek
>>34900374
Why? They provide the best ankle and arch support, as outlined by >>34900159

b-but that wasn't the video I wanted to show you
Please I just need your input for 1 thing.
I cant babrellrow, I refuse to do barbell rows. I was thinking of replacing barbell rows with chin-ups however I read chin-ups force your shoulders into the wrong position so it enforces forward shoulder.
(Or something like that)
Thoughts on what to replace it with? I'm stilling doing dumbbell rows but as an accessorie, not a prime lift.
>>34900684
bent rows are goat and i give them a lot of credit when it comes to deadlifting
did 105kg for a set of 30 earlier
>>34900684
Just do neutral grip or pullups with palms facing away
>>34900633
Friendship lad
>>34900706
Probably chin-ups with a grip facing away I guess.
Thanks.

Sheiko lad that tweaked shoulder on Tuesday here.
Yesterday warming up to 50% squats/bench was 7/10 pain, today working sets are 4/10. What should I start doing to keep safer? I do zero prehab and mobility...

>>34900056
>Flats are awful to squat in, no arch or ankle support.
ok thanks mom
>>34900846
Yates rows suck, literally a slightly bent over shrug.
>>34900879
what the fuck kind of stance are you taking
I've been hitting squat prs almost every training while i've hit a wall on both deadlift and bench press. Is it because im doing such heavy work on my squat?
>>34900873
That's literally the truth though, you wouldn't run in converse shoes, why not squat in squat shoes?
I find my deadlifts easier, less painful and more natural when I engage my hamstrings pre-lift. Maybe an obvious tip that might help someone
>>34900846
>babby weight
But resting on the floor means you can use slightly more weight for a similar level of strictness.
I think arguing about row variations is possibly one of the least important factors in training. I don't even care about watching my progression on them, they're a method of doing work.
>>34900919
How do I engage hamstrings preliff?
>>34900918
assuming you're not baiting me...
because when you run, you want your shoes to absorb as much force as they can to make it easier on your knees etc.
when you squat, you want your shoes not to absorb any force because then all of your force will be going towards pushing the bar up, not compressing your shoes.
tl;dr: different shoes for different purposes
>>34900934
I feel it bending my knees a bit back and having your back straight with your chest out and head up. This puts you in that desirable starting position where your hams and glutes will start to take the weight over your lower back.
Also I find it less painful on my chest when I pre-pull since your arms aren't necessarily vertical when you prepare for the deadlift and grab the bar, but it straightens out once you do pull it a bit without the bar actually leaving the floor
>>34900966
>because when you run, you want your shoes to absorb as much force as they can
wow sounds efficient
>>34900934
I just pull my chest up and try to think about them really hard
>>34900966
Why the fuck are you on about? Maybe Google squat shoes beforehand?
>>34900972
it's not about efficiency, it's about less impact on your knees and shit
>>34900021
Get a paper towel

Row more than you bench or youll end up with pinned forward shoulders
A big strong back helps all three lifts, neglect it at the expense of your total
>>34900994
lets see...

literally all shoes that don't compress. Or maybe we can look at any good oly lifter or powerlifter. You wouldn't run in any shoes made specifically for squatting
>>34901018
december 5th here lad
LETS GET IT BOY
>>34900346
>back snapping while bar is in controlled freefall
Actual confusion, now
>>34901032
I don't neglect it. I do back work 5 times a week.
The 'more than your bench' thing sounds arbitrary though. I cheat arch my bench, I don't cheat my rows. If I do, it doesn't mean I'm outputting more force or creating a greater stimulus.
>>34901032
I do dumbbell rows, chin-ups with a Pronated grip Outside shoulder width and face pulls, you literally do not need barbell rows.
He'll even rack pulls would build a bigger back than barbell rows ever could.
>>34901053
>I cheat arch my bench
pretty good b8
>>34901063
I also cheat sleeve my squats and cheat stance my deadlifts.
>>34901033
What the hell, why are you talking about sole suppression?
I said you wouldn't squat in running shoes as they are purposes for squats, meaning you should squat in squat shoes which are purposes for squats.
Flat flimsy converse trainers offer no arch or heel support, they are as good as squatting bare feet which isn't good.

Also my squat has been stalled at around 145kg-150kgx4-5 because I kept taking periods off due to knee. I got MRI scan, went to orthopedic he said I needed surgery for a meniscus tear on the outside of my knee and explained the details.
Anyone know of the recovery of this and if I can ever do sports again? Any other people experienced a meniscus tear?

I got an echo and picture, while my insurance insisted on MRI. Than radiology department insisted upon me getting a MRI. My home doctor worked more against me than with me by sending me to hospitals that have large queues I had to call a lot of different hospitals in the Netherlands, while I couldn't fcking walk (I should've just called the ER).
It sucks because it feels like I lost a little more than a year. Benching hurted the most since the position was really uncomfortable to get in. It put a huge amount of stress on it and it would agravate it badly.

Badboy you're such an obnoxious guy
Why are you so obnoxious?

hey guys got this new rare boardshorts
Does roiding and still being weak make you ugly?
If not, explain Boardshorts and his shit life
>>34901798
You're right though. Really can't compete with autistic obsession.
SBD sleeves are the shit. Didn't think sleeves added weight to the squat but these really do

>>34901140
thanks Joffrey, your 3x3 @ 90% works great.
>>34901901

but kind of don't feel a need for sleeves
torn desu
>>34901920
Eh obviously not necessary but they are really really comfy

His work capacity is what gets me more than the weights themselves.
>Hey guys, I'm going to pull 765 for a few.
Hey, that's cool.
>I'm just going to warm up by hitting 495 x a million, 585 x a thousand, and 675 x a hundred first
The fuck?!
Reminds me of some of the lolfed monster benchers hitting sets of 500 x 20 and shit. Ridiculous.
if I made a bingo for boardshorts the free space would be "bagged some groceries today"
>>34901932
Yeah that's what Derek Kendall does
I can't believe that shit
>>34901901
Who else /hardtoirritate/ here?
>>34901938
FUCKING KEK
>>34901940
The only person I've seen hit crazier sets than Kendall is Spoto, and I'm pretty sure he's got hydraulic jacks in his triceps. 605 x 8, 315 x 65, fuck outta here.
>>34902020
Who else /hard to pack groceries/ here? I might need a bag boy to pack em for me when I go shopping tomorrow
>>34902020
And they say tren destroys with capacity...
>>34901932
>gets to something close to my 1rm
>busts out a million reps making it look like it's a 1plate general warmup
yep shit is ridiculous
