Try harder. Autoregulate.

OBESE PEDOPHILE GENERAL
>>
Welcome to /plg/ aka Poetry & Literature General. We are a remnant of /fitlit/ and this is a place for aspiring authors to practice their creative writing skills in the context of weightlifting. Posts made in this thread are fictional and conversations between personalities are likely to be the product of a single author. Enjoy your stay!

What have you done? Are you happy? Are you happy we have descended into this pitiful state called "not lifting?" We are less than a disgrace. Less honourable than a toad, who probably gets more leg work than us.

Obliques, I guess, but if you want to get better at powerlifting, do the lifts.
>>
>>75340450
I already do oblique isolation. Improved squat so much the failure point shifted.
>>
>>75340442
How tall are you and how long are these femurs? I’m 6’1” with a high waist and I’ve never had a problem hitting depth. I wouldn’t spend 300 dollars on antas when you have a 5 cent squat. Get to 405, (180ish kgs) and then you can buy fancy shoes
>>
>>75340468
Then you’re not getting much out of the farmers walks, keep them if they’re fun, otherwise scrap them, but don’t do them for powerlifting

You pull sumo. You don't get to talk smack about people's deadlift training.

>>75340422
Training grip is important even for mixed grip.
Ever since I added trap bar deadlifts (chalkless) and dedicated grip strength training, my chalkless straight bar deadlift has skyrocketed.

Misgrooved (lost balance) 265kg/585lb kilo plates PR, so I did a double instead. Legit I could get 5 reds in kilos. 700lb for Halloween on a deadlift bar + pounds may not be unrealistic. Closer stance feels WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY better than max width sumo.

Let me guess. Twink mode? You must weigh 120 lbs. 3.4sama, is that you?
>>
How do you fix this?
>>
>>75343841
Stop squatting low bar; squat high bar atg
Stop pulling sumo; pull conventional
Stop archmaging your bench; complete full ROM
Then check if symmetry still holds. As of now all your lifts are inflated. That will fix your issues.

>>75343746
It's not really fat but so much your total weight. When you gain weight without lifting your body also builds muscle. Not a lot compared to if you were lifting, but significant enough such that you would be stronger than if you weighed less. There's a lot of downsides to gaining weight this way though, and even though you may gain muscle, the additional fat may get in the way of your lifting, e.g. body weight exercises like pullups.

Sorry if this is a stupid question I'm a noob. As far as I'm aware deadlifts are mainly done from the leg muscles right? Is the back involved at all? I'm hesitant to try it out because I have mild scoliosis/back pain and I don't want to make it worse.
>>
>>75343955
makes sense, also carrying your weight around stuff like that
>>
>>75344009
The lower back is the main muscle exercised during the deadlift. You can try the deadlift but if you have pain while doing it then stop.
>>
>>75344009
depends on how long your legs and arms are, the shorter your legs are the more of a back exercise it becomes

if you have really long legs and arms it becomes more of a leg exercise

From, Starting Strength, first page of chapter 4:
>Lower-back strength is an important component of sports conditioning. The ability to maintain a rigid lumbar spine under a load is critical for both power transfer and safety. The deadlift builds back strength better than any other exercise, bar none.
If the lower back muscle is not the main muscle exercised during the deadlift idfk what is.
>Inb4 sharting strength
Literally google it and look on any website, the deadlift is a lower back exercise.

He's saying it's important to protect your lower back by not loading the weight on it. The primary movers depend on the stage of the lift. Initially it's your hamstrings and quads. Once you pass your knees it's your glutes and lats. Your lower back is a small set of muscles that are easily overloaded. If you lumbar isn't protected then you can easily load more weight to your lower back than it can support, ultimately causing you to slip a disc or worse.

Who was attempting to make this point, and how was it supposed to be deduced. The original poster asked:

The back is very much involved, and the deadlift is mainly done to exercise the lower back. That isn't misaligned with what I have stated. What you said is probably true but otherwise what does that have to do with anything?

Rip had a bit with Nick Delgadillo where he guaranteed that an untrained athlete would drop their 40 yard time within two weeks of starting deadlifts. Anecdotally, this seems to be true. If the mechanism claimed is that the lumbar spine more effeiciently transfers power into the legs, and the deadlift is said to do this, I'm inclined to believe that the deadlift is in fact a lumbar exercise.

but the deadlift specifically. I should clarify untrained on deadlift. If someone who only squats, cleans, and benches starts to deadlift, their sprint times drop. I've seen it

>>75347421
The deadlift is undoubtedly a lumbar exercise.

The lumbar is not the primary driver, which is the legs, but it experiences significant stress along the tension curve.

I've seen the bit from Rip, don't really have any reference points for testing it. I'm wondering if the raw poundage matters. I don't deadlift on a regular basis, but my clean sets are in the mid 300s, and clean pulls around 400. I can't imagine deadlifting more often would shave any time off of my sprints, or increase my jumps.

Fundamentally, it's a modified StrongLifts 5x5 that I mixed with some Bill Starr, and seasoned with a bit of Louie:

AxBxAxx | BxAxBxx

A:
Squat 5x5
Power Clean 5x5
Bench 5x5
Pendlay Rows 5x5
Chinups 3xF
Conditioning

B:
Squat 5x5
OHP 5x5
Deadlift 5x5
Pullups 5x5
Conditioning

Conditioning is either Sled Push + Pull 3 - 5 x 180 yards (Louie number)

OR

GHR Situps + Calf Raises 4x10 and then I go into the basketball gym and do some drills like 5x50s and X runs
>>
>>75348852
Are those pullups weighted? You still do squats 3x a week despite not being on a beginner progression? Deadlift 5x5 must be pretty brutal the same day you squat. I've seen Stronglifts use Pendlay Rows in place of the Power Clean but not together. Do the muscles worked not overlap?

Should have given more context, but was too lazy lel

Squats: Plan is to be stubborn about 3x / wk until I reach a 2x BW squat tbqh.

Not doing sets across (SA), for squats I'll do SA 2x / wk, with the first lift of the week being a top set + Backoff. Backoff will be for SA weight. For example, yesterday I did 295 5/; 285 4/; 255 5/5/; 225 5/;

Deadlift is a pyramid so it's not that bad, but yeah it's rough. I'm just not built to deadlift, more of a squat specialist so the long back interferes with being great at the deadlift.

Pendlay Rows / Power Cleans: I imagine they do, I've read the Pendlay Row is the best assistance movement for the PC, but I can't figure out a way to incorporate both without doing it this way, or having to reduce frequency.

Nah, pullups aren't weighted yet. I'm a little fat, have long arms, and a lingering brachial plexus injury on my right side so I use a resistance band that gives between 30 - 85 lbs of tension.

That's... pretty weak if your heaviest squat is 295 (PLS be kg). Maybe it would be better to follow an intermediate program instead of doing your own programming.
>I'm just not built to deadlift, more of a squat specialist
At that squat I don't think anybody would call you a specialist. If you did 5x5 straight or top/back-off deadlifts you would get more practice on the heavy weights.
>I can't figure out a way to incorporate both
Do only one of them if you can't do them on separate days. You're already doing chinups and pullups, so that should suffice for upper back strength. If you weren't doing those then only pendlay rows might be better.

You DO understand that someone's specialization - IF they have one - is dependent on their anthropometry, right?

Short, stocky arms + big, wide torso + broad shoulders = bench

Long legs + long arms + small torso = deadlift

Big torso + short femurs = squat

"I'm an X specialist" is not primarily a statement about how much you lift, because that's mostly a function of training history and genetics. It's a statement about what lift your leverages are best suited for.

>Follow an intermediate program
>Do a program someone else wrote
Well, I actually understand how to program a lifting routine, so, no I don't have to follow that advice.

Facts are that 5x5 is the best program one can do. There's really no debate. If you dick around in the gym and have a 600 lb squat because you're fat, and using drugs, and think your programming is the reason, then you're only fooling yourself.

The list of champion lifters, and bodybuilders, who run 5x5 is long. 5x5 IS the lifting program of the gods. Now stop yapping, listen to Daddy Shaman lil' sophist, and go read about 5x5.

>>75349722

I don’t have good leverages for squat, but it’s easily my best lift. It’s also the only one I really enjoy and care about, so effort is a big factor as well.

I am also a big believer in the 5x5, and have come to see it as the end of the meme curve, being both the best introductory program and the best advanced program. The middle is filled with complicated garbage. Frequency and absolute load is the only thing that needs to go up with advancement, the percents and scheme is optimal.

Reminder that Clarence, Louie, Rippetoe, Coan, and Starr all endorsed the 5x5
