not a fair comparison desu

weightlifting gets the cream of the crop (minus america because of football) and is an olympic sport. powerlifting gets the dregs.

'tis why you see guys like jesse norris and shane hammen, people with actual athletic talent that shuffled down to powerlifting because of injuries or misfortunate, completely blow the fuck out of long standing records.

if you took the top football players and trained them to compete in powerlifting or weightlifting from a young age, you would see all the records broken, or at least any record 83kg and above

Weightlifting is about pride, sportsmanship, fortitude, and perseverance.

Powerlifting is about slinging your dick and ego as much as you can and cumming on yourself.

Also you can get pretty gud at powerlifting with like an hour of training, 3x a week, so the sport appeals more to regular folks working 9 to 5s as opposed to professional athletes who train for a living
>>
>>35366072
I follow a powerlifting/oly routine. Each style serves a purpose. The only thing wrong with powerlifting is the image. Non-athletic "swole" fat fucks can lift the most weight. Anything to lift more, even if that means becomming fat. It makes no fucking sense.

This is only true for the SHWs and maybe the 308s tho. Every other weight class, being fat hurts you. You could either be in a lower weight class at the same strength level if you were leaner or in the same weight class with more muscle, all things being the same the leaner powerlifter has the advantage in their weight class. Not to mention that fat SHWs are not unique to powerlifting, pic related is the current record holder in C&J and total

Can any olympic lifter deadlift 410kg at 100kg bodyweight? No? Fuck off ya Jabroni.

>>35366341
Yes, it makes more sense to unload and load new plates every time instead of just adding them in the intervals that you are going up in to appease autists on 4chan.

>>35366605

deadlifting heavy ass weight is bitchin n all,...

ts just not as athletic as a snatch or clean and jerk sorry dude PL as a whole is rather boring besides the comical american faux-megabro-hype
>>
PL is more badass

Also genetics as far as explosive stuff. People with shitty vert jumps don't have the same potential for explosive strength.

My vert jump is okay, but also powerlifting is cooler than oly so I do that.
>>
>>35366638
I find both sports to be painfully boring from a spectator's point of view, on the same level as golf or paint drying, but powerlifting is pretty fun as a participant. Couldn't tell you from first hand experience about oly lifting because I've never really gotten into it, but I bet it's pretty fun too.

Yeah, I agree with you, I wish they would just stop pretending that drug free world class athletes are a thing. However, Rezazadeh worked much better as an example of a fat SHW oly lifter.

I have never understood how the safety bars increase the safety of the squat. Can't you just drop the weight on the floor if necessary?

'Safety' refers to shoulder safety, and you should really only ever use it in a power rack.
>>
Do these idiots really think PLers are fat? Do you only watch SHW and none of the other weight classes? Any lifting sport with weight classes means the lifter will go for under 15% to perform. As low bf as they can go without compromising strength.

People like Dan Green could win bodybuilding competitions from being so jacked and ripped.

This. Its a great competition for pple, who don't want to live like professional athletes. If you do a sport / compete just because you want to be famous and need a popular sport to boost your ego with, you're no better than these <225lbs ATG sqwat kids makings these threads.

Lifting is fun. Lifting against others is way more fun and rewarding.

These threads are always hilarious. Oly lifters at my gym want to believe that they look cool and jacked when they're doing doing they're 100kg cleans and baby-weight snatches. The reality is that any casual lifters look just as bad as they're powerlifting counterparts except I don't have to worry about the powerlifter throwing a barbell at me when he fails a 120kg jerk.
>>
>>35367294
Coan still reps twice your max as an old ass man conventional though.
That technique is just how he could pull the most weight.
