I see so many newbies fall for this trap. Fellow obese powershitters who can't even see their dick when they piss or jog a half mile without going into cardiac arrest will tell you that all you need is the big three, compounds, lift heavy and eat big.I spent (wasted) years doing powershitting/strength focused weightlifting and while my lifts went up, I was a frogmode obese slob who was absolutely not healthy, fit, or attractive. Powershitting does NOT improve cardio, endurance, flexibility, posture, agility, fight skill, cardiovascular health, or aesthetics. In fact, it makes most of these WORSE than even a nonlifter. And you do not need to shovel food down your gullet and get 150g of protein a day. 95% of lifters should benefit to cut, not bulk (unless you are already like <12%bf)Please for the love of God, if you are a newbie, DO NOT FALL FOR THE POWERSHITTING TRAP. And if you are an existing powershitter, please for the love of God, add calisthenics, cardio, MMA, yoga, sports, etc. to be a more well-rounded, healthier, leaner, more in-shape individual.
post a video of your lifts or let this thread go to page 10 call it
>>77545476>I'm a fat, ugly, unhealthy frogmode faggot but I can move a heavy bar in these few very specific waysPowershitters never fail to make me laugh
The first time i hit a 405 deadlift. I showed my bros and they all said >damn you got fatThats when I stopped powerlifting
>>77545476I could make you tap out in under 10 seconds fatty

>>77545470You can powerlift without being fatIt's actually way better for long term gains to stay under 20-22% bfI hate the retards who don't get that Also, most strength focused athletes will still hit heavy isolations
>>77545479>>77545484>no lifts postednow that's what I call a dyel Indian post. see ya on page 10
Just don't weigh over 90-93kg and go for a jog if you also want to be okay at jogging. Not that hard. Except for Op. You have to tell them exactly what you want them to do because they can't make any decisions on their own. I actually have not seen a powerlifter that weighs over 90kg in real life in over two years. They have all been skinny guys. There is really not that many fat fucks anymore.
>>77545470Yep dude, I fell for it as well. /fit/ was all about starting strength, bulking, gomad, not doing cardio, and shit like that. There's still a lot of people who baghold that mentality and they don't realize that powershitting was just a fad. Most of these people never played any sports or did anything athletic at all, so it makes sense that they think low-bar fat sitting means ur an athlete. Cardio, eating well, focusing on being athletic and healthy has given me 100x the benefits of fatshitting EVER did. I remember hitting a 5 plate deadlift pr for the first time and the girls didnt give a SHIT!
>>77545470>Powershitting does NOT improve >cardiono shit>enduranceit's a mix of cardio + strength anyway>flexibilitymeme>posturememe >agilitydoesnt exist outisde of RPGs >fight skillno fucking shit >cardiovascular healthyou already said cardio retard >aesthetics.yes it does unless you're in the unlimited weight class
>>77545504Forgot to attach a picture of me btw, cardio kills gains. This is me.
>>77545491The point is strength focused weightlifting the single worst to solo focus if your goal is aesthetics, fitness, fight ability, real world utility, or general health. The only benefit of strength based lifting is moving an increasingly heavy bar in one specific way, ie pointless
>>77545470>And if you are an existing powershitter, please for the love of God, add calisthenics, cardio, MMA, yoga, sports, etc. to be a more well-rounded, healthier, leaner, more in-shape individual.So basically the reasonable part of your post is:Do strength training + MMA Everything else in OP is retarded
The big 6 is all you need. Shit thread. Kys op
>>77545470Nobody, not even powerlifters ever say "all you need" is the big 3.You are a dumb dyel making things up
>>77545517Maybe you are newfag, but that was parroted all over in the early-mid 2010s
Powerlifting is fantastic if you want to look like this and waddle around everywhere .
>>77545515Any other combo with MMA is better. Strength training is absolutely worthless, aside from giving you injuries and heart attacks.
>>77545476Not OP, but it's clear you're a butthurt powershitter. Everything OP said is 100% facts.>>77545486You know what's just as fucking stupid as powershitting, non-individualized fitness standards. Aside from the fact you just pulled this out your ass, any fitness standard not based on, at the very least, the individuals own body weight, is peak egotistical retardation.
>>77545529>had the mewtwo build as a guy>stopped working lower body entirely for six months>legs are still hugeAnother shitty meme, chicken legs > tree trunks all fucking dayLook at Jon Jones, /fit/ would say he has DYEL chickenlegs if they didn't know him
>>77545535>b-but muh relative bodyweightvery simple: DON'T WEIGH 100 FUCKING LB RETARD. Otherwise these apply
>>77545517It's the trooned wog. That's why he's so retarded. He doesn't lift.
>>77545538I accept your concession & declaration of suffering from learning disabilities.
>>77545542>baby weight is upsetawwwww
>>77545549This person will NEVER post body with a timestamp.
People saw this and actually thought this was inspiring. Rippetoe claimed he gained 50lbs of muscle or something like that lmfao. I can't belive how dumb people were.
>>77545476Post a video of yourself hitting the bag.
>>77545470>>77545479>I spent (wasted) years doing powershitting/strength focused weightlifting and while my lifts went upOh really? Do you have a single picture or video of this?No? You're making it all up? Wow that's crazy
>>77545539
>>77545500Wow that's fascinating. May I see? Your 500 deadlift? Your awesome current fit physique? Anything at all to substantiate any of this?>>77545509If you post a picture of your body I will stop lifting. I am serious. I'll sell my squat rack. Post body.
Op raped by a powershitter
>>77545597u first bub
>>77545596yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas queen you sure showed that chud!!!
>>775454701:15 into this thread and no lift or body posted.
>>77545621they never do
>>77545597I'm neither of the guys you're responding to, but I bet you can't even provide a timestamped pic of your squat rack.
>>77545650You honestly sound like a chode
>>77545656And you sound like a lying larping faggot. I'd much rather be a chode than that.
Just weighed myself out of curiosity.254 at 5'10" I have powershat myself
>>77545470I hardly see any powerlifters at my gyms, and the ones I do see are skinny Asian kids. I doubt many people are falling for the powerlifting meme. Kids are falling for the looksmaxxing/aesthetics meme and training like pussies. The vast majority of people at gyms are DYEL's.
>>77545470enough for what?>Powershitting does NOT improve cardio, endurance, flexibility, posture, agility, fight skill, cardiovascular health, or aesthetics.Powerlifting makes you good at powerlifting. The training for powerlifting absolutely makes you aesthetic.I'm not even a powerlifter and I don't care for it, but if you want to powerlift then you should be doing it, no? If you're a beginner and expecting to LOOK more muscular than if you just did some Power-building hybrid training or hypertrophy training then you are retarded. Or if you're trying to argue powerlifters never do hyperytrophy work or isolations, then you're even more retarded.
>>77545470Powerlifting is for women
>>7754574599% of powerlifters look like shit man.
>>77545763>If I make up stuff it's trueYou're just an idiot. Powerlifting is a weight class sport. Only the superheavyweights are the fat ones.
>>77545763Who's shit man?
>>77545560Hard to tell how much muscle he gained under all that fat. Jeez, no wonder he did a terror. The Rip must be stopped.
>>77545529How does this even happen? Is this what GOMAD and squats 4 times a week does to a man?
>>77545470Powerlifting needs a baseline of general fitness to get the most value of out it. You can't progress decently anyway if you have problems with posture/flexibility/proprioception etc like most people seem to do these days. Rippletits was a disaster on a lot of younger people who didn't have solid foundations to build on.
>>77546065fucking idiotGoing from zero to a 315 squat is a lot of 'progress.' Regardless of what your 'proprioception' is.Fitness is literally just stupid people throwing terms around in the most aggravating way.
>>77546074You can't even get to 315 before injuring yourself along the way if you can't even get into the correct positions with bodyweight from restrictions in mobility or hidden weaknesses from being sedentary beforehand. I've seen beginners injure themselves with just the empty bar because they for example can't control the descent on bench or have a stuck rotated hip to one side and can't squat properly from decades of sitting at desk with bad posture. Before just going heavy on barbell lifting these guys need variation in their workout to fix these issues.
>>77545504How is flexibility and posture a meme? It prevents injuries and chronic pain. It's genuinely absolute hell to live with chronic pain
>>77546128>flexibility and postureIt's an unc thing. He's probably still in his 20s and thinks he can just power through everything. Wait until these zoomers reach their 30s they'll be singing a completely different tune
>>77545486Are you this guy?
>>77545476That doesn't sound like you denying or refuting OP's words anon. It sounds like you admitting he's right and then doubling down.
>>77545509If you don't like actually lifting, just do pilates and stop posting hereIf you want a good body naturally, you HAVE to have a high s/b/dYou don't have to be fat to have a high s/b/dThe vast majority of powerlifters also hit accessory work Your only real argument against it is that its not true functional strength but holy fuck that's so untrue Deadlift and bb row off the floor are by far the most functional lifts
>>77545560He was juicy after swapping to a higher volume program and cutting like 6 weeks laterHe's proof the program works
>>77546095complete nonsense80 year old women squat on day one without any of that
>>77546159Everyone's situation is different. Also those 80yos probably lead more healthy active lives in their younger years compared to the average youth of today.
>>77546165Just stop talking please
>>77546170No, you're the one that doesn't have a clue how bad it can get.
>>77546138Yes, but since then I perfected my standard and made it more comprehensive.
>>77546247Plz seek help for your autism
>>77546490It's called holding yourself to a higher standard, mediocre one
>>77545470basedalso, fuck squats.squatting is so gay. bench, ohp, deadlift, and fuck even leg press, and farmer carry and sled push all imitate things you will do in normal life, whereas squat and row are not even remotely like anything you will EVER have to do.do cardio, and sled pushes, that will train your legs, that along with deadlift and leg press make squats retarded and pointless
>>77545476post a video of you making it from your car across the parking lot to the front door of walmart without breaking a sweat
>>77546513When you say shit like this it just proves that you know literally nothing about what you are speaking about. Simply lifting heavy weights is more than enough for what you are talking about, unless the guy weighs like 400 lbs or somethingI literally don't understand why you spend all time talking about this stuff and never even try it in real life
>>77546521I do lift but I also do cardio. Now post video, powershitter.
>>77546530May I see? I will post body if you do
>>77545486>> 2pl8 BENT OVER BARBELL ROW (horizontal pull)>> 3pl8 BENCH PRESS (horizontal push)
This is a world class "athlete" according to fat sitters. People still think its based and say "bro if u were in a fight with this guy hed crush you"
>>77546570Which powerlifter in particular said that?
>>77546570I notice you aren't posting bodyYou continue to post the 1% of superheavyweight powerlifters who look like shit, for some reason, as if that has anything to do with anything
To all the clueless ignorant retards, Rippetoe doesn't teach powerlifting He teaches his own cult version of strenth training
>>77546044this happens very easily when you skip the upper body and never skip the leg day. Human body has the most muscle mass in legs and hips by default, so it is easiest to grow the muscles there compared to anywhere else. If somebody did just the dead lifts and squats, he would get this thick femboy build.Some wise fit/izen once said that it is okay to go easier on legs.
>>77546664But deads would build posterior chain, back and some arms... this guy looks like all he does is hip thrusts, leg extentions and leg curls.
>>77546568if you knew anything about lifting this would be obvious but of course you think "durr barbell row MUST be equal to bench hurrr"
>>77545560remember this guy? he's been arrested at some antifa protest
>twinks still seethin about pl
>>77546570This squat is crazy desuI don't personally want to ever be anywhere near that fat but if you don't respect what this guy is doing, you're a petty self righteous piece of shit
>>77547085They seethe but prefer strongfat tops
>>77546909>he's been arrested at some antifa protest>long haired fatass hippie is pro-antifawow shocking no way
>>77545476I can bench 2 pl8 @ 120 lbs without arching like a homo. Powerlifters should be ashamed at what they do.
>>77547155mlady
>>77547155I want to bench 3pl8 while maintaining an athletic build, what do?
