Why did powerlifting stop producing sick cunts?The first 20 years of the sport gave us sick thick physiques like picrel. There was crossover between powerlifting and bodybuilding (Franco Columbo, Stan Efferding, Ronnie), and powerlifters weren’t afraid to do curls and lateral raises.Rippetoe acolytes and Westside people look fat and lazy, and ROM standards and power bellies have made the sport a joke.Is there any future?
there's always been fat powerlifters and there's always been, and still exists plenty of lean and jacked powerlifters. you are dumb and probably baiting. end thread.
Steroids werent the hysterical cunt emotional issue back then that they are now. Dudes just juiced. Also, bodybuilding styles and powerlifting styles of traing were not as strictly bifurcated back then. Most powerlifters did lots of bodybulding movements as sccessories. Finally, genetics were probably better - only people who were strong and/or muscular lifted back then. Today, lots of people with garbage genetics to look good are willing to do a lot of work to get strong and pwoerlift, so they do. Back then it was only muscley/strong guys who did it. So all the guys looked muscley and strong.
>>76660772you couldn't name one powerlifter currently in operation. inb4>that's le BAZED I am stupid imagine knowing things about stuff you complain about lmao tr0led!!
>>76660772Good roid stacks back then, fell out of fashion sincedbol and deca thenGHmaxxing now
>>76661613Im taking test, deca and dbol right now. I feel incredibly good, lifts are going up, muscles are growing larger women are literally mirin. Yes, I have a little fullness in my cheeks, but all my veins are still veining. Bloat and water retention is highly overhyped. Maybe if youre trying to get on stage at 4% bodyfat. But if you're just walking around looking jacked, full and juicy at 15% it doesn't matter.
>>76660772Physiques like pic related still exist in powerlifting. Guys like John Haack, Colton Engelbrecht and Jamal Browner aren't as huge but are still big and stay at a low body fat. It's just the westside retards that make the sport look bad
>>76660772Thank god(s) for bodybuilding. I don't have to be a power sharter.
>>76660772maybe because they used to go through the full range of motion
>>76660772>Why did powerlifting stop producing sick cunts?they stopped abusing and relying solely on steroidsthat's it
