[southbankwulf]

so what you think? (yes powerlifter and fat but still)

[Widge]

if i was that big i could squat 750, j/s

[DLTBB]

Well it's definitely there.

[webcke112]

I understand that you are a powerlifter, but that doesn't mean you have to be obese.

I know that seems harsh, but seriously, you need to lose some weight.

[byates5637]

Good to hear, mate.

Your lifts are very impressive, but carrying that much weight (fat) ain't gonna do you any good. You will feel a lot better after losing some pounds...

No way you are 23%.......you are over 30% for sure.

thanks, i know it isnt healthy thats why i plan to do morning cardio and eat alot cleaner....which will naturaly make me feel better. but evan at my weight now, i still feel good like not slugish and sh*t.

[southbankwulf]

maybe? but i dont think so, had bf test that say i am 23% i know ther not accurate but i dont think im over 30%

Dont worry about it, most people are *******s on this forum anyway. Ya looking for critique and all ya get is fat jokes. Know how that goes.... Do what YOU want, **** the rest.

Only accurate method is calipers (skin fold test)

Those scales that tell you weight/BF are too inaccurate.

Still, i stand by what i said.

thanks what was used, calipers..i had it done at docters checkup.

and fair enough, thats your opinion but to be fair your only judging that from one back pic.

That's true.

In that shot you look more than 23%, but who cares, don't get caught up in the numbers game (other than what you lift, lol)

lol thanks brah...im used to the fat jokes though. but i normally dont get them in person, weird huh?

That's true.

will do man, thanks. i can always cut if it gets too out of control.

[Bigchrome]

It's pretty clear you have size under there but like others have mentioned it would be so much better after a 20lb or so cut.

[trog2233]

ummm... you are definitely over 30% BF. Lose alot more.. I agree just since you weigh 260 doesnt mean you can be just as strong at 210....CUT alot

[southbankwulf]

ye i do have some size, but when you say "it would be so much better" you mean i would look so much better, which is not what im trying to do here. im a competitive pler not just a fat kid with **** lifts saying im a pler to be lazy.

ummm... you are definitely over 30% BF. Lose alot more.. I agree just since you weigh 260 doesnt mean you can be just as strong at 210....CUT alot

and how can you tell that from one back pic? and i probably could be just as strong at 210 but i dont want to be just as strong...i want to be stronger!! thers no way i could cut 50lbs and get stronger in that time.

[Ectostar]

Lol lift4swole, whats up with all those pictures.
sorry for offtopic

[NathanielS]

You know there are tons of people who lose weight while gaining strength. You could still do it.

And lets be honest right, for the record, if you're slim you'll look brilliant and have a better lift-weight ratio which is more impressive.

ORRRR you can stay fat and keep getting fatter because obviously getting diabetes is totally worth an 800lb squat.

You have to limit your fat gains at some stage! (which I see you are trying to do) If it were me I'd cut and look beast as well as being strong! Pudszianowki is a prime example...

[Lakers15th]

You do realize that carrying that much fat puts a TON of additional strain on your heart, right? You know carrying that much fat is just giving you a higher possibility of having a cardiovascular related disease, right? You know carrying that much fat will do you no good strength wise if you are dead, right?

I'm just saying, there's a difference in being big and fit and just being, for lack of a better term, fat. You are doing seriously long term harm to your body with that much excess fat.

yea but gaining strength while losing 50lbs? not going to gain much strength to be honest.

and that maybe more impressive to you but id rather squat 800 at 280 than 600 at 200.

maybe its not worht it for a 800lb squat, but for a 1000+ squat, i think so.

pudszianoski is a strongman, im a powerlifter two totally different things. mariuz competes in wsm, which for the most part is more muscular endurance, this is why he doesnt do well at the arnold strongman because thats a heavier comp, which heavier guys dominate.

i do realise this, this is why im trying to cut some fat, but staying around 20% (which is what i want to do) is it really that bad?
