/plg/ - powerlifting general

>Hanging leg raise ALL THE WAY UP 3x5
Based and Tatepilled
I did knees to chest 5x5 today. Can't quite get legs all the way up yet. Feels very nice on my back and hips at any rate.

Lawful evil: figgy
Lawful good: smg
Chaotic neutral: Sean (he balanced out Simon, and figgy larping as him creates a counterbalance)
Chaotic evil: Simon (is probably making this post)

Most relevant books for proper training:
>Louie Simmons
Westside Barbell Book of Methods, Bench Press Manual, and Book of Squat and Deadlift. One of the best authors for training fundamentals, but program guidelines are quite loose.
>Josh Bryant
Jailhouse Strong, JHS 8x8 Offseason Powerlifting Program, and JHS Successful Mindset Manual. Great author for training fundamentals. However, there is no free peaking program.
>Cory Swede Burns
5th Set, and 5th Set Evolutions. Most up to date training program templates, only the bench peak is outdated.
>Jim Wendler
5/3/1 for Powerlifting, 5/3/1 Forever. 5/3/1 for PL is a great beginner book, and if you like it, Forever can be used to adapt it for longer term progress.
Bryant's and Burns's books are well written, but Wendler seems like a retard and Louie cannot into English. All of the books are in the pastebin in Bobbergstein's drive.

BEGINNER PROGRAMMING
general recommendation:
"Beginner Prep School" From 5/3/1 Forever. Submaximal Full Body Barbell work + lots of GPP. Appropriate for both weight loss and weight gain.

weight gain specialty:
Westside for Skinny Bastards III by defranco. Lots of muscle building exercises, and DE Squats are replaced with jumping for ease of access.

powerlifting specialty:
5th Set but only reset the mesocycle as needed instead. Friendly for both weight gain and weight loss, still has cardio, but it's a powerlifting focus instead of having more GPP.
5/3/1 for Powerlifting is a good choice too, I'd say it's mostly personal preference between these two.

I usually use straps 3x10 but today just did 3x5 for deload week without straps. The straps make it way better.

I tried it without them, never again. I'm too fat for that shit, gave me shoulder ouchies.

Based and I hope you prove 3 day is the best OG way to gains.

Ive been thinking about how for endeavors in other areas, progress usually follows an exponential curve like in op image. However, we all know that gains tend to follow a logarithmic curve, with beginners progressing rapidly and progress rapidly slowing as one reaches their maximum potential for their genes, bodyweight, etc. How do these two penomena interact for lifting weights brothers? I cant wrap my head around it

We agree Sean and Simon are definitely chaotic, but we disagree on which one is evil and which one is neutral. We agree that figgy is good, but disagree whether he is lawful or chaotic. Bobby is neutral. Smg is good. We need some more input from the peanut gallery

that is exactly the term I needed. I don't want y'all to think I didn't try

man, potatoes, beans, greens--they're all good for the digestion but oats just absolutely mog

Why no close?

cuz i can lockout 40 pounds over my max, but i get stuck at the mid and bottom

Sean doesn’t really disrupt the established norms of the board, he was a key part of the board. Simon just went rogue and started trashing the place, and got some other anons to play along. Smg, THE and Bobby are the rules based order that reigns him in. Weems and 9 are closeted Simonposters. Kimcel is a retard, definition of neutral. Figgy is by the book, but evil, lawful evil is correct.

Simon shut the fuck up with your shitty alignment chart
