The Official PL Family Appreciation Thread: Part XI

yes but isn't it weird to use for wide stance geared squats?

There are many different kinds of squats out there. You won't see many raw squatters going that wide or single ply guys going that narrow.

Jason on here goes fairly wide with his raw squats and raised heels. Still sits back quite a bit. Judge goes fairly wide with his raised heels and single ply.

I agree but, those aren't the best videos to help your argument. Those are very narrow single ply squats with the heel and Kupp is wearing wraslin shoes.

I'm going raw for a while. I'm hoping I can work around some bio mechanical disadvantages with these.

good luck with that bro

also if you look at a lot of the older multy guy they wear the safe's that have a little bit of a heel. Not as much as an oly shoe but it does have a slight incline.

this. The type of shoe matches with the typical stance, except the one dude is full retard wide.

He's a multi time national and world champ so whatever works, works.

Cool story bro. I'm not telling him to change his stance or anything, it's just insanely wide.

Yea, wasn't necessarily trying to use the videos to directly show wide gear squatters with raised heels. Just showing that there are many different ways to squat. Alot of people just automatically assume or spew nonsense that geared squatters need to be as wide as possible with chucks and raw squatters need to be close stance. Whatever feels comfortable for you and you practice the most will probably work just fine.

[martin_mathers]

not drinking the haterade but that super wide stance just looks retarded lol looks like its even wider than vogelpohl's stance

[LegosInMyEgos]

Okay, so I think I am gonna buy 1 pair of the 5/8 inch 44 lb chains, and then get 2 pairs of 3/8 inch chain from home depot. That will give me a little over 70 lbs of chain, which is really all I need since I am only gonna be using it for the bench.

I saw this article posted on ********, it was a good read. I just noticed it's almost 3 years old, .

Fukkin sucked. Thinking about eating 5k calories for the next couple days.

On the upside, one of my girls prepping for RUM is coming around quite nicely. Today she pulled 345 x 2 and pause benched 160 x 2. So at least somebody on my team lifts.

I'm trying to up my calories right now, but my appetite has been really bad. Se sounds like a beast.

u mirin?

Nice, I'm going to get some Adipowers.

Did a mock meet today. Hit a straps down PR. woot woot.

Congrats. I max out next Sunday, so I'm hoping to hit a new squat PR. Not too sure on bench and deads. My left forearm is all jacked up and is being a bitch.

[adamsz]

Npb

anyone here ever run smolov jr for both bench and squats at the same time to peak for a meet? I feel like a little while back in the thread someone was talking about this.

I've got a meet in exactly 6 weeks (march 23rd) and want to peak nicely for it. I'm pretty accustomed to high volume - i ran sheiko 29/37/32/29/37/31/32 going into my last meet. Only other experience i have with peaking for a meet was the sheiko 32 cycle but i want to try something else out.

Didn't want to make an entire thread about it and have everyone say use the search function so i thought i'd ask the fam. I've already searched around for about an hour but can't find anyone who's done this specifically.

Nice job Judge especially with the new born and all. Hope everyone in the house is doing good.

u mirin?

Those are a really nice shoe. Good job though picking the only other color out there more obnoxious then the AdiPowers.

I just ordered size 8.5 Adipowers amd I also just so happened to get my book stipend from the VA. Coincidence?

How is your rep power so high? Maybe I should use a better tactic than only getting mod negs.

It's probably cuz you didn't accept his bb.com friend request.

EDIT:

Don't worry, he negged me too.

"LOL @ your autistic, anti-social, pathetic attitude... Too bad it's also in real life & getting you nowhere."

Sorry brahs, I'm going nowhere in life cuz I don't accept random bb.com friend requests. Maybe I should let anyone who knocks on my door in my house as well.

Did he even drop you 1 rep? I will neg him on RC for the lulz.

[arian11]

I checked his thread again, apparently he's talking to himself. And he thinks that I begged you to neg him.

[LegosInMyEgos]

video of my gym. reverse band deadlifts seem like a really good fit for me.
