You literally only need 4 lifts to be healthy and strong.Squat:>being able to stand your body upPullup:>being able to pull your body upDeadlift:>being able to lift things off the groundFarmer's carry:>being able to carry things in your handsAnything more is just for "aesthetics", which mean nothing outside of bodybuilding which for decades has basically been about who can roid himself up the most without dying before the competition. You know I'm right, that's why this thread isn't a discussion, it's a PSA.
>>77295343>knocks you onto your stomachYou gonna stand up without pushing yourself up off the ground?
>>77295343Your picture shows him curling two girls. Bet he could lift his kids up over his head, too.
>>77295343Why pull your body up?
You're kinda right. Pushing strength isn't very useful.>>77295380It's not too hard to get up off the ground without using your arms at all, even for balance.>roll onto butt>feet down>stand up
>>77295403...and you're going to do that instead of just doing a pushup? Also, I think you did a situp during your process, ooops>>77295396Exactly. You can work backwards to justify any stupid list of "only need these _"
>>77295380>>77295384I think the point is if you can excel in those few compound lifts you're probably strong overall. Lots of carryover to some smaller lifts.
>>77295343Never seen a strongman do a pullup before
>>77295343>>being able to pull your body upwhy not a muscle-up, so you can actually get your body all the way up?
>>77295343>>being able to lift things off the groundhow you gonna actually put it up anywhere? or even carry it on your shoulder? gotta clean & jerk that shit, or at least curl it
>>77295343>this is all the body is capable of!That's how you tell people you're retarded without saying so.

>>77295343>being able to pull your body upWhy?
>>77295343I get it’s your first year lifting and all but every muscle on your body has a functional purpose and is worth training. Do you really think the sole purpose of your chest muscle is just to pull chicks?Also, what exactly is wrong with training and dieting for the sole purpose of having an aesthetic body?
>>77295343Deadlift covers pullup and farmer's carry. I have a strong baseline of both of those just from deadliftingSubstitute for press and benchAnd you are falling into the classic trap on here of thinking your exercise needs to look like some other movement to be of benefit. It doesn't. It just needs to strengthen the relevant muscles
>>77295343>Anything more is just for "aesthetics"Or maybe it's for developing muscles that your lifts neglect hmmm?Or perhaps it's for injury prevention, or mobility, or strength in different planes of motion that your lifts don't cover?
No horizontal or vertical push. It’s shit
>>77295343>plwhy every strongman is from Poland/bulgaria/other slavic shithole?Why they are so strong and western people so weak focused on tranny rights or some training at 80kg max instead of just make mass and be big,strong and fuck wymyn?
>>77295343>box squat >muscle up>sandbag carry >farmers carry
>>77295343Where's OHP? You need to lift and put up stuff on top of higher surfaces like cupboards and stuff.
>i ran out of diapers>now i shat my trousers
>>77295343It's a bullshit PSA.
Putting your hand overhead would be something to add here but yeah cool. Also carrying something in your lap which would actually involve some chest and bicep too.
>>77295343normal dudes looking at this picture would put themselves in the pants of the guy thinking about the blowjob they'd receive from the girls. Meanwhile, me, am looking at the girls feet. I should fucking rope
>>77295343>Anything more is just for "aesthetics", which mean nothing outside of bodybuilding which for decades has basically been about who can roid himself up the most without dying before the competition.t. can't run around the block without suffering a career-ending injuryIn realiy, the rule is use it or lose it, which means you should do all the different lifts you can think of for maximum variability.
>>77295396To jump over fences and walls you fatass retard
>>77295993Dude, those are children.
>>77295343Look how happy they are>>77295961wut>>77295993It's not my deal but footism is really the most inoffensive fetish there is pretty much>>77296148>In realiy, the rule is use it or lose it, which means you should do all the different lifts you can think of for maximum variability.But then, according your logic, you have to keep doing all those lifts foreverI literally only do the squat, press, bench, and dead. That's it. It makes it very very easy to maintain, since doing one set of each lift, once a week, is more than enough. I can't imagine having to do dozens of exercises constantly for the entire rest of your life. And from that baseline strength I can do pretty much anything else. Give me whatever meme exercise you do and I guarantee I can put up a respectable lift the very first time trying it.
>>77295895The slav form factor is kind of huge. They have close Asian limb torso ratios but are a bit taller. Also makes them good at insane ultras like "most miles run in 24 hours" or some shit because of the higher efficiency but they make horrible shorter distance runners, rowers, climbers, mma ect.
>>77296335>climberThe greatest competition climber of all time is a 5'5 slavic woman. It's a young sport though.
>>77295455I don't need (You) to yes man my post
>>77296389Yeah, you tell 'em!
>>77296182those aren't children, wtf are you talking about
>>77295343>Pullup:>>being able to pull your body upI had shoulder surgery and cant do pullups anymore (it hurts my elbow which is weird).Its over for me.
10 km run>being able to actually do anything useful without getting immediately exhausted
Isolations and other lifts are supplemental and help contribute to increasing those lifts. I couldn't break 3 pl8 squat until I started doing leg extensions, leg curls to failure
>>77295343How strong would you have to be to do this to any given girl? This guy seems a lot stronger than is necessary to pull this off, if that makes sense.
>>77296335they are just better,probably next master Racewe,americans need to focus on fapping to BBC more
>>77298111Depends on the size of the girl.
>>77295343You're a retard and you've been a retard for over a decade. You deserve to be fat, ugly, and unwanted.
Why does 4chan attract so many of these retards?This is like going back to 2012 when these retards were all sperging about drinking 1 gallon of milk a day and reading starting strength.
>>77296193>Look how happy they areBecause he's tall, nothing to do with anything else
Come on OP. Do it faggot.
>>77298111the two in that pic are sticks, any decently sized man could carry one around without going to the gym. they look like they're less than 50kg
>>77295476>Deadlift covers pullup and farmer's carry.Please refrain from further posting.
>>77295343"Keep it simple, stupid" is a good rule of thumb in strenth training but being reductive helps no one. Your list is missing an upper body pressing exercise (OHP, dips or weighted push ups for example) and you should cycle all your exercises every couple of months to avoid overuse injuries and plateaus.
>>77298730also you should include one rotational/twisting exercise so your body doesn't have the same movement patterns as an early 00's humanoid robot
