I'm really not trying to be a dick, but you probably shouldn't start a "weightlifting competition" thread on a Powerlifting board (suck it, Seeker ) when you pull 315 for 6.

I'm one of the weaker dudes on this board and I just pulled 465 x 5. I've power cleaned 315. And I'm not posting the vid because I don't give a shit. POB has seen the vid if anyone wants validation. It's not like 465x5 is some huge number anyways...its below average in our world.

465x5 pull = STRONG as F'k bro and nothing to sniff at it is impressive by far, we are not all going to be like Dan Green.

One should not judge another and talk shit about others goals but Bodybuilders have for a long time talked shit about Powerlifters especially the weak ones while they use an excuse they'd rather look strong then be strong, I say what man would live life thinking that. Then the ones that act tough but bitch up about squatting and deadlifting.

So in a Powerlfiters eyes we feel we have heard enough, there are much less of us then the Bodybuilders type but then again most are wannabes and not real Bodybuilders they only talk the lifestyle not live it without never setting foot on stage unless it's with a broom in hand lol.

It is really hard work for both the Powerlifter and Bodybuilder it's not easy one bit I respect both that respect both.

Ego's are going to be everywhere men are they go hand and hand and I'd rather see the ego's behind a keyboard then in a gym getting hurt.

I wouldn't talk down ones goals but I will get in a fellow Powerlifters heads to push their buttons so they bring extra to the gym, meet or just a lift.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but PL isn't the be-all, end-all and certainly doesn't mean that if you are not a PL, you are not strong.

Some serious egos need to be left at the door.........................

You are correct there are very strong bodybuilders. No one will argue that. Also no one will argue that you are in great shape.

Here is the difference. Being and athlete vs being a narcissist who is so self conscience that the have to show an extreme outward appearance to feel better about themselves. When your goal is to simply look good, in my book you are a sham. Again that is my opinion.

I give a crap what I look like when I take my shirt off. I may not have the biggest Bis or the best delts but I guarantee you anyone that looks at me says man that dude looks good, that dude looks very strong and I bet he doesn't wear a god damn bikini.

Ask yourself why do you workout. I guarantee 99.9% of people is so they can show off at the beach, or get pussy. Don't give me that "because it makes me feel good" BS. Drinking whiskey makes me feel good.

A PL is a functional athlete period.

Last brain buster of the day: Why are there so many bodybuilders and people who just lift vs PLs? Why is bodybuilding a billion dollar industry? I will tell you why. Because people are weak, people are soft, and only about 1% of the world has the stones to really strap it on day after day to do what a PL does. So yes my lady, in that sense it IS the be-all and end-all in terms of its purpose.

 

[Dtownry]

Sorry if I offended anyone. SFGiants is right.

I am getting ready for this meet and I am all ****ing business. I have a short fuse right now. No excuse though.

I love you all LOL.

 

[Fsuphisig]

I love bodybuilding and pl and I have competed in both, so dtownry im a narcissist ? And im self conscious huh ? lol your on here screaming about how much better you are b/c your a pl lol holy hypocrite. and a pl is not more of a functional athlete than bb'ers. really neither are all that functional more like strongmen or football players, unless your actively doing plyo's and sprints and shit your not all that functional dont get ahead of yourself.
I dont know why either side has to assert that their way is better, both are f'in awesome, both take extreme dedication just with diff goals and priorities. dont think your so tough because you squat, cuz youve prob never had the dedication to get down to 4% bodyfat

 

[Fsuphisig]

1 rep max for squat is 365
dl 375
bench 300
ohp 165

Well first I am new to PL and not even close to being strong as far as the sport goes. I have been on both sides of the fence, played D-1 sports, done bodybuilding, done triathlons, and I have looked like a Greek God in the past. Have you been on both sides of the fence sir?

I am not going to argue with you and I don't need to tell you what I have done and what I haven't done in my life. It would boggle your ****ing mind anyway.

Like I said in my post it is my opinion and I will voice that opinion whenever I damn well please.

We can agree to disagree. Or not, your choice. Anyway have a great day and I apologize if I offended you.

Listen numb nuts I didn't ask for your stats nor do I give a ****. Let this one lay where it is please.

 

[Assassin32]

I will just say this, as long as you're at the gym training and trying, you have my respect. No matter what your goals are.

Dtown, he's posting his stats and his PR's. Remember, that is what this thread was intended for.

Understood. I am going to go take a cold shower.

I will just say this, as long as you're at the gym training and trying, you have my respect. No matter what your goals are.

At around the age of 37 I started to get my ass in shape pre Powerlifting I started out just doing a shit ton of cardio via swimming laps, elliptical, running bleachers, running the football field, running the track and treadmill and it was brutal a hell it was hard work that I learn in time to do in a shorter amount of time in intervals.

I was so in shape I kept up reffing and coaching rec soccer teams I would run up and down that soccer field reffing games, I can not do this today my goals changed from wanna great endurance and stamina to having much more strength.

Point is I put all out in both goals they just gave different results with one taking away muscle, strength and size to the other giving it.

For anyone wanting to get endurance and stamina I would say hands down the 2 that work the best are interval in the pool and sprinting intervals.

 

[Joliver]

I did 32 sit-ups in six and a half minutes. Beat that....
