Sry but I ask here because owg is in general where the knowledge is:
(actually did wl until I fucked up, so semi related)
I dont know shit about nutrition and I have come to ask thee for advice:
>am 6'2 105kg
>semi built
>currently doing modified PPL with rehab shit
I want to lose fat from my last bulk. Currently at around 20% bf. I dont really count anything except protein and total kcal intake.
I have heard lowering carbs is the easiest / most efficient way to go about losing some fat.
Can I still do volume training for size?
Do I replace carbs with fats? Nuts, avocado, shit like that? Already halved last weeks portion size of rice and pasta by half. Feels like I could do alot more.
thx in advance
>>34924350
calculate tdee subtract 300 - 500 and lower slowly
0.8-1g protien per kg
6-10 g carbs per kg
rest is for healthy fats
I would lower the volume, but progress slowly.
>>34924350
how did you hurt yourself?
>>34924350
>in general where the knowledge is:
stop believing this bullshit and you'll actually get somewhere
lmao
>>34924400
plg and owg have the most well reticulated posters.
>>34924350
Low carb diets are very effective for losing fat as a starting point if you don't care about muscle. Do it with muscle and you won't have the energy to push or pull the same weights and thus lose more than necessary muscle in the process.
Keep your carbs proportionate, eat less, maintain your strength or try to increase it, and you'll lose your fat

Does anybody in these threads put up any impressive weight? Anyone hold any records or are close to? Does anyone here compete in anything?
>>34924516
I used to compete in math competitions, and am starting to compete on topcoder
Solid last heavy day before next week's meet.
Snatch - (100/1)2, (105/1)2, 110
C+J - (120/1)2, (125/1)2, 130. Overpulled the shit outta 135 and lost it forwards, had that delicious Eleiko knurling scrape the skin off my forearm from wrist to elbow, so I left it there.
Squat - 145/3, 155/3, 166 for 1kg post injury PR
Clean Deadlift - 160, 170, 180, 190 singles for a strapless PR.
Current competition bests are 105/130. Was thinking about 106/111/115 and 127/132/137 as my attempts.
Bodyweight currently a mere 87kg rip.

I'm in the market for a new pair of knee wraps. Currently on a tight budget, but was wondering if I could get the most for my money. My old pair is starting to reach the end of its life span.
>>34922076
is it worth buying shoes like this for squats/deadlifts?
I usually go barefoot for diddly and running shoes for squats.
>>34925384
Yes

>>34924550
Go for 113 on snatch and maybe go higher on c and j
Anyone know of the highest all time snatches, cleans, jerks, and clean & jerks, regardless if its official or gym or rumored and regardless of bw.
>>34925839
Umm 266 and 217
>>34925839
>>34925888
Anatoly Pisarenko had around a 260-270 c&j and cleaned 280, and someone achieved a full snatch of 220 but I can't remember who.
>>34925901
Lapikovs 217 is pretty impressive considering he's not very heavy.
How does an athlete manage to stay undiscovered for the majority of his career in terms of roids? Liao Hui got dqed once for boldenone iirc, but Lu hasn't been dqed. What's the difference between the two?
Why do all weightlifters workout shirtless? never understood that
>>34925970
I think undiscovered may have been the wrong word.
>>34925980
Explain please. I know nothing about roids, I'll admit that but what I don't understand is how do some athletes pass as fake natties when they're all on the same chemicals.
>>34925901
Lovchev did 220 off the blocks, its the heaviest I have heard of.
>>34925979
They don't
>>34924981

are you suppose to deadlift in lifting shoes? i thought you dont.
>>34926288
>cool arrows<
>>34926312
No you don't deadlift in weightlifting shoes. Generally want a flat heel.
>>34924408
reticulated?
Anyways, I think owg, plg, and fraud tend to be pretty knowledgeable in those generals.
>>34921564
I've been doing some reading on weightlifting and people suggest to do 'volume work' on my squat, what does this mean?
Thanks in advance
>>34925130
probably just got off a plane or bus or both, only the last couple. Walking like they have pins and needles or wedgies or something
>>34924546
>>34924568
So does that mean no? It seems like there is a lot of hatred towards plg in /fit/'s oly scene, but I don't see any trips or anons posting webms of anything impressive.. Just a bunch of Chinese and Russian pros training. Does anybody here do anything impressive?

How do career weightlifters make a living especially in countries like Aus or the US?
>>34927627
>career weightlifters
>in aussie
there are virtually none
in the US they probably hold down day jobs, just going off powerlifting as an example I think Eric Lilliebridge is an accountant
>>34927663
no one in australia makes money off weightlifting. i know one girl in my gym that went to the olympics representing australia while working as a engineer.
>>34927663
>>34927682
Just thinking, it is possible to hold a job and train for the olympics?
I know Erkand Qerimaj of the Albanian team was studying law and public administration while training and competing, don't know if he works.
>>34927682
yeah that was what I was saying, there's nobody whose 'career' is weightlifting
that's cool though, I'm jelly
>>34927711
I was reading about Russia and literally Klokov was saying that make good money but have all their expenses covered.
> tfw not russian but australian
fuck this gay earth
>>34927709
you probably can but you won't be at your best when it's time to cmpete
i know several people who has competed in B group in world champs while working part time while training full time
>>34927740
Does Australia or America pay their athletes anything at all for training?
>>34927733
well your quality of life is higher considering that you wouldn't have made it as a weightlifter in russia (in all probability) so count your blessings. Guys like Klokov and Polovnikov are one in a million
>>34927759
america they have MDUSA which is the only company i know that gives stipends to their athletes
USAW gives stipends as well but you have to be already top dog to get those
you can get sponsorship from different companies they pay a little and gives you free stuff if you're popular enough on social media
>>34925979
only when the camera is rolling
>>34927759
Australia pays some of its athletes a stipend indirectly (its the national body paying them, not the government) and/or gives free access to training facilities, coaching and such. How much depends on the sport.
Weightlifting is not one of the sports under the main program.
Can i get a 188 kg front squat without juice?
>>34928373
Its possible.
Depending on height/weight/etc. Certainly won't be easy though.
>>34928381
94, 5'11?,Currently on 125kg
>>34928715
Probably doable, although you'd likely be at 105 or so when you achieve it. Individual genetics matter of course.
>>34922076
Going to be hard to top Romaleos II
They're pretty good
Is it normal to ask strangers to spot you? I'm going to be joining a gym for the first time soon, and I'm not sure how this really works. Should you always have a spotter or is it just when you're going for your max?
I read the sticky, but forgive me if I missed it.
>>34928373
At 94 or 105 you should be able to front squat at least 2-2.5x body weight or more naturally, once you start getting past 3 or close to 4 unless you're like a midget with stumpy legs it'll be hard naturally.
>>34928753
Those are romaleos ii, just new colors.
>>34928771
I feel so weak.
>>34927524
Ya we have Smythphil who does 145/170
There's a few people here who snatch 120+ and I think some lotus guy with a 200kg front squat.... I back squatted 220 which I think is pretty good but I don't know how it holds up in plg
>>34928373
94kg here and front squatted 181 easily naturally. I'd imagine 250 is close to the natural limit for a 94
>>34924381
>>34924418
so basically calc tdee, eat at deficit, keep some carbs to be able to lift? thx brehs
>>34924389
by neglecting "core" and by not having a coach
also work related
>>34924400
lurked and posted in owg regularly the last 2 years or so, if you believe the rest of the board maintains the same general level of info you are deluded. we still have our shitty moments, same as plg tho and I'm the first to admit it. in fact, last couple of months have been shit in general and the reason I no longer lurk on a daily basis.

Bought these fucking shoes. Fucking hopeless
i havent squat over a year now, just tested where i am and i squat 100kg for 3
My old max was 130 for 3, how long do you guys think it will take me to get back here with squatting 3 times a week
>>34931139
3 weeks
>>34931151
You srs?
>>34931125
Maybe don't hang out with crossfitters. You can't expect to get good form with cross fit coaches. Also, practice makes perfect. Drills, do drill, every day, until you're so sick of them you want to puke.
And yeah, crossfitters have shit form, so don't expect progress if you hang with them. You'll have better luck having a random person at the gym film you and then watching to see what's wrong.
>>34927269
Moderate intensity, moderate volume of work. The bread and butter of strength training. 20-30 total reps with ~70-80% of your 1rm is a solid day of work.
>>34931191
Hey dumbass, if I could go to a strictly oly gym I would. My coach only does barbell club, but if I could have another oly coach I would.
I have to go to the crossfit gym. And I'm saying, people like crossfit moms(yes they have shit form) have better form than me. What also makes me upset is that there are brain dead morons who pick it up fatale than me.
>>34927524
Higher proportion here have probably competed desu. Not saying good, the common consensus is compete asap in wl even if you're hitting tiny numbers, dunno how pl works in that regard.
Guys, i've been trying to get into a bit of OWG, so I tried doing some power cleans. Am i gonna snap something if i don't drop the weight after I press it ? We don't have bumper plates in our gym unfortunately.
>>34930543

Lifters in USA who are good will live off it. Not a good living. But take for example the world team at the OTC. Free food. Free accommodation. Then there's teams like mdusa who pay their lifters from a private backer.
It's a shitty wage, and they will all coach/seminars to suppliment. It's very unlikely any are holding down full time jobs while training at that level though.
In the UK at team GB, the men have 0 funding now from sport UK who fund athletes. The women do, and its purely because the women are legit medal hopefuls on the European/commonwealth stage and possible A groupers in world's and Olympics. That's why most the male team GB will be coaching as a job whereas most of the girls don't need to. It's not a good wage though for the girls.
Most athletes in all sports that dont have much of a 'salary' do get perks like free suppliments', clothing, food, sometimes even cars etc. My friend knows an Olympic gold medalist rower who when he was competing got paid very little but had a BMW, rolex, flights etc all free. He makes way more money now he's retired doing after dinner speeches.
Hope someone found that wall of text interesting :^)
Whats the best way to get better at pulls? I noticed my pull strength really started to decline.
this qt3.14 left her friends and family to lift at the OTC. livin it desu senpaitachi
>>34932217

>>34921564
So /OWG/, what's your typical day of strength training look like?
>>34932688
Come in
Spend 1hour trying to get the right tech
Do only 20reps because I don't know how to get under the bar correctly in clean or snatch
Leave
Repeat for 3 months while 48 ur old crossfit moms blow me
Out of the water
>>34932688
show up
change into gym clothes
warm up for 5-10 min
start main exercise, usually a snatch variation
do second exercise, usually a cj variation
third exercise, usually a pull or squat variation
debate on whether or not i should do accesorry stuff
go home
drink protein shake
cry
:^)
>>34932713
That sounds hot
They take turns blowing you? Why water u like swim?
>>34932778
>warm up for 5-10 min
Did you start working yet?
I envy those young kids I train with that just goes to school, they don't even need real warmup just start with the bar
I have to do like 30 mins of real warm up to get loose enough to lift properly because of work
>>34932803
yeah ive had like 3 shifts so far.
usually my warm up is like stretching out my hips so i can squat properlly w/o discomfort
>>34932778
Test will do that
>>34932850
test will do what?
Ok so started today. Coach has given me no routine just yet and basically I'm just doing drills for technique until I get in a few months.
I can go 3-5x a week, do you recommend any routines I can do that will maybe prepare me for oly a lot more? Some thing squat focused and back? And something for a little size?
Gym has dbs up to 50kg, Machines and barbell.
>>34932169
Bump.
>>34932968
3x5-3x5 squat 2-3 days a week
>>34932968
Squats, squats, and more squats. But make sure you deload every once in a while. Don't overdo it
Pretty large lump on my neck after squats every time, kind of on the second vertebrae from the base of neck. It's not painful and is just soft, this normal?
>>34933002
Yes. Mine is discolored as well
>>34924478
>>34932401
Have 170 backsquat 1 rm
Should have 105 snatch/131 C&j for a 236 total
>Currently have 75 and 100 for a 105 total :(
Oh well starting month 4 of oly training :)
>>34933262
Ya join the club. 220 back squat.... 115 snatch and my form isn't even bad.
>>34921564
I can't take a guy seriously if his first name is an onomatopoeia
>>34921564
been self-teaching oly for a few weeks.
did typical squat/press/dl strength routine for a year prior (6 months 'seriously').
Here is a 72kg 'heavy single' C&J from last week.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0msoMvD6dg
I feel like im receiving too high and not vertical enough at the bottom. Still figuring out split jerk.
>>34932886
mak u cri evrytiem
>>34933590
get a coach
>>34932401
those are always highly variable, depending on proportions usually
how much should my snatch pull be compared to my clean pull
i have an easier time clean pulling
>>34933590
set up is way too long, it takes you what like 15s to find u hand pos. ??
Clean:
jumping forward
extending early
not finishing extension
Jerk:
front foot a bit farther, front shin wshould b perpendicular to ground
looked rly slow (fine when noob but just a note)
in your dip you start extension on your toes instead of midfoot
you dont finish extension/drive in the jerk
atleast u got the bar behind ur head, thats a start
what>>34933646
said
Hi owg. Been lifting a few months.
Today I missed a bunch of snatches I did for 6 triples last week. Was very tired and sluggish (work).
Last week I altered my start pos and it felt very good, today everything felt crappy. Is this normal, to have days where you miss low lifts and you feel like you've forgotten everything?
>>34934088
yes, ur fine
>>34934039
>>34933646
thanks, I will have the time and money to invest in coaching after this hellish semester ends in mid december. I'd like to keep working on the movements and addressing mobility issues on my own until then though, not trying to put up numbers.
>>34934139
Thanks ob. That's all I needed to hear.
Cut my session short to eat and sleep early tonight think in long run its a good idea.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0F8J4RMTbk
>>34934205
yeah man, when in doubt eat more, sleep more, stretch more.
I would say unless you're injured or like dont have enough time, try not to cut sessions short.
The barbell I use to squat is really shitty and is now like one of those texas powerlifter barbells that are intentionally bent or whatever. Also it doesn't spin+super stiff.
It sort of fucks up my squats. So I need a new barbell. Until then I can to fs in my garage with my deathtrap jerk stands.
Maybe add some pulls. Maybe.
Also this weekend will probably compile all of the bulgarian resources I know of.
>>34934523
do you not lube your bars
>>34921564
> 23 years old
> About to join the nearest city's oly gym
Wish me luck, bros.
>>34934665
That bar is just really shit. When it "spins" it's actually unscrewing the ends. I screw both sides in before each set.
my dad doesnt want me to get into Oly Weightlifting because he says itll leave me with a fucked up spine when I'm older and they'll mix in some funny pills into my food and stick needles into my glutes (which I have no problem with).
how to convince?
>>34934848
Looks like you have to kill him and live with your uncle.
>>34934848
fuck him what does he know
>>34934930
my uncle is abroad and I cant really move there
>>34935014
thats why im asking, how to convince? idk shit about OW either, whats the long term effects of OW etc.?
>>34928373
>>34928381
>>34928771
I know a 94 who front squatted 200 for a double naturally. Just takes hard work.
>>34934848
>they'll mix in some funny pills into my food
lol
>>34934523
>It sort of fucks up my squats.
how would a non spinning stiff bar fuck up your squats???????
i squatted 200 on rusty barbell that dont spin before i joined my current club with nice bars, i see minor difference in squatting none that would affect training
>>34935461
shifting weights for someone who is not stable
>>34933498
You don't really finish your pulls or get under with any real snappiness
It's not awful but it's not really a mystery where you're losing kilos
Is there any way to stop losing core tightness in front squats?

Why the fuck is it so expensive to work out at a crossfit weigh lifting gym???
I went in there today to ask how much it would be to just use their facility and work with a coach and they said the minimum price would be around 200$
Why the fuck is it so expensive to just do Olympic weightlifting in america
>>34932968
>>34932991
>>34933000
So do any of you know a routine or template I could follow? Preferably just for backsquats now. My coach said I should focus on triples?
70kg bw, 100kg 8rm squat
>>34936022
An 8rm holy fuck.... Where am I!
I am a powerlifter (sorry for littering your board guys) and I found through trial and error method that high bar squats are looking better, feel easier and more natural for me.
Could you recommend an authoriry in WL world from whose instructional videos I could learn more about high bar squatting?
>>34936097

Greg Everett of Catalyst Athletics
his book is available for download (complete guide for ...)
Also, unless you're Asian you should probably look towards the Russians / Soviets when it comes to tech and form etc (if you go youtubing shit)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApNgInHPqpU
>>34935461
I wondered this, for classics I think a non spinny bar is bad even if you're snatching the kiddies 2.5s, but for squatting I don't see how bad it can be
WAIFUUUUUUUUU

>>34936388
>that one guy clapping
>my sides
>>34935461
if you're used to an olympic bar sometimes the plates will cause the bar to rotate forward depending on your form, which can make you lean forward too much. Seen it happen
>>34936639
E-Estonia?
getting back into classics after 3 weeks off for foot problem, did a bunch of snatch work yesterday
mostly no touch, power, snatch complexes at 75%
today was a few clean complexes at 75% and posterior chain work
what should I do tomorrow? I'm thinking of muscle snatches (pressout version, not no touch) and close stance squats + bb

That first girl looks so freakin happy to be on camera, I wish I ever got that excited over anything.

Lu looks tired and sad. He states his training has not been going well.
I feel bad for him. He will always be everyones champion in heart though.

Slay your core at the end of every session.
Long pause (~5 seconds) front squats.

Don't forget to tip the receptionist
Cleaned 97.5 kg. Went on to jerk it, locked it out but weight moved back. Lower Back hyper extended and popped many times. Luckily I didn't go straight to snap city:) pray 4 me brehs about to go to bed. No pain since indecent but worried about stiffness in morning
>>34938906
I did the exact same thing today. It didn't feel good lol. With 146kg
>>34931657
wow i guess everything you do is on the internet

So much for that
>>34939656
it's funny because power snatching 80 for a double with shit technique and no idea what you're doing is still kind of impressive
>>34939656
>So much for that
he didn't say he's going to quit though
anyone in here dealt with rotator cuff injury?
Dislocated and pretty sure I tore it
am I fucked
>>34940084
where's the pain located?
if its in front delt you tore your labrum
those things dont heal on their own, you can try rehab but you wont be able to lift without pain unless you have surgery on it
most people have their labrum torn, that's where the shoulder pain comes from. if you're a normal person strengthening rc muscles would be enough to make the pain go away, if you plan on lifting and competing better save up for the surgery. recovery takes about 4 months to about a year
donovan ford had his shoulder repaired 75% of it torn and he was back in 4 months, david garcia as well idk about the stats or how long he was out but i think it's the same time as donovan
i think they're both close to 170 snatch now a year after the surgery
>>34940249
anterior/lateral delt, and more so towards the top of the joint. No real "pain," just lots of discomfort after lifting. That being said I haven't put anything over my head in about two months. Lots of squating, pulling, and as of this past week I just started cleaning again.
Interesting, did not know about donovan and david, only ian wilson. Gives me a bit of hope for the future. Being injured sucks man.
Surgery when I can afford it, it looks like...
>>34936755
Well I've yet to see that but Ilya has at least a 320 feet at 105
>>34936304
who's the qt at 4:15?
>>34937072
Those shorts look like two basketball's sewn together.
>>34935984
same here, I needed to pay 55€ but they gave me a 10€ discount because im a student
if you look at commercial gyms they are 15€
Good program to do for the next few months while I am learning technique?
Can anyone recommend one heavily focused on backsquats with lighter days for technique?
5'9 70kg 110kg squat

Do more pulls?
>>34942159
Texas method squats with some pulls and light technique work?
>>34938989
Woke up this morning and I'm perfectly fine.
Snap city avoided.

>>34942692
how do i become so supple
is it possibru at all
>>34927269
my coach gave me this
9 set of squats :
3x5 at about 70% of max
3x4 at about 75% of max
3x3 at about 80% of max
the numbers increase, it's pretty rough but it yields good results.
>>34942708
do the exact same sequence of stretches 10 times a day for 10 years
>>34928373
would figure so, doing front squats for less than year and reached 140kg 86kg bw.
>>34939656
>lowbar gave oar a ticket to the paintrain
guess ya shoulda done highbar :^)
>>34925384
>squatting in running shoes
>>34942270
Yeah but what would benefit my pulls? Only pull exercise I know are deadlifts.
>>34943995
Snatch Pulls
Clean Pulls
RDL/SLDL versions of those pulls
High pulls, panda pulls, 1st pulls, those all help if done with 6-8 sets of 1-3, maybe for a single heavy set and then 3-4 back off sets. Pull-ups and Back Extensions too.
>>34944233
Thank you friend, this is exactly the answer I wanted. Have a nice evening.
Hit me with the dankest stretches you got, ideally for each body part, not barbell or bands stretches. I feel like my flexibility is coming to a halt.
>>34944249
To add to this, snatch deadlift and clean deadlift can be useful in strengthening positions especially in beginners who are used to normal deads

does she still has bushy armpits?
>>34940990
yeah but the commercial gym near me doesnt have proper equipment and is crowded af and they probably wouldnt allow the lifts i do
Man, I'm so pumped for worlds.
>>34945573

>>34945601
wtf2kuyas
Cleaned 100kg from floor for first time today
Still fucking up 60kg snatches despite being like 15 under my Max. What is life.
>>34946120
Hey man, congrats on your clean PR!
Do you know where you're fucking up your snatches? if you do, drill those primarily weak areas with a working weight percentage, and keep going at it.
You'll get there man.
>>34946162
Idk man everything just feels fucked this week. I did 60 for 6x3 last week and hit 75 two days after
I see a coach once a week but can be hard to be watched closely as he has a big class to watch. He said it wasn't too bad I was just setting up a bit different. I just need to groove it all in a bit more cos when it goes well it feels good but sometimes idk wtf I'm doing anymore
I've not been oly lifting long, 5months since I started weekly classes and about 3 I've been focussed on it, I think I'm a slow learner desu but I'll get there even if it takes me 10x longer than it should

tfw good ratio but still a weak skeleton
https://www.instagram.com/p/-MqKBOviYd/
ur jelly of my ratios
I have a question. I have a really high sternum. It is way above my shoulders. When i put a bar in the front rack position it lays on my sternum no matter how i move my shoulders and it fucking hurts. That's the reason i have never done cleans or front squats. Does anyone have the same problem?
>>34946241
I am jelly. Squat 10kg more than you but you're nearly 20kg aahead at snstching
>>34946291
post pic of your body, or at least that body part, im curious

My body is ready
>>34946809
Take a bunch of pics / vids
>>34946837
For sure
I doubt I'll be able to get in the training hall but idk maybe my coach will let me sneak in considering he's the team usa women's coach for worlds
