    Powerlifting separates the men from the boys. If you can lift 500+ pounds of anything, you're one hardcore man. Me as a beginner, I'm a boy. That's what gets me motivated is just knowing that, and that Russian superstar, Maryana Naumova is kicking my ass in bench press. If you have a woman kicking your ass, how does that make you feel? Not very good right? So I tell you, join me in upping the game. I'm not giving up on being the future powerlifter, and neither should you. As men, we can still take the world by storm. Let's continue to kick some ass.

      I can leg press 1,000Ibs(full motion) but I don't label myself "hardcore" or some other silly shit like that. Just go to the gym and fucking lift it isn't about names or labels. If a person can't go over 500Ibs that doesn't mean they're weak but there's a certain level of body conditioning that it takes to lift those kinds of weights.

    The main difference is that anyone of any athletic ability can do bodybuilding and generally get results. Powerlifting is the more of the sport side of working out and not everyone can be successful doing it.

  • @bushidosoul1988
    @bushidosoul1988 10 років тому +1

    To those talking shit about bodybuilders, non-raw powerlifters, or basically anyone that isn't a raw PL... think for a second before you insult the elite. They have put in more work and dedication and deserve more 'respect' than probably anything you've ever done in your life. They are top. They are elite.
    Even PL not raw is impressive. A belt helps.. a LITTLE. Still hard as fuck to pull 900lbs or squat 1000. If you think otherwise.. try it.
    Bodybuilding is impressive... the diet, the hours of hardcore flexing, the stamina, the determination to stick through it for hours and hours on end... And it COMPLIMENTS powerlifting.
    These aren't 2 different subjects in math. These are training methods for the body. The body isn't compartmentalized like our lives are. Our bodies are holistic. Bodybuild and you will get stronger. Powerlift and you will get bigger. They both do both, one merely emphasizes a certain effect. But like any powerlifter will tell you, after a while of powerlifting, you MUST incorporate some bodybuilding into your routine or you will stagnate for a looooong ass time. More muscle means more surface area to produce strength from. You're building your body, not a world of warcraft character.
    Have some respect for men that dedicate their lives to this shit.

  • @LiekABaus
    @LiekABaus 11 років тому +1

    Might be the primary reason, but having low bodyfat and caring about your 6 pack certainly has its benefits.
    Low rest/going for pumps, and maintaining a low BF means you generally have alot more endurance as a result.
    Its real training in that i felt alot more fit when doing a BB focused routine vs a powerlifting focused routine when i didnt care about my love handles.
    But ultimately what i found is the more variety, the more fit I feel overall. No one thing is better than another imo.

    Bodybuilding is as real training as powerlifting but they are two different training styles with two different goals, I'm a bodybuilder and I put myself through hell weekly.

    • @GmoneyMozart
      @GmoneyMozart 10 років тому

      I think it's the notion that bodybuilding splits and the way the training is set up does little to nothing for normal everyday people who aren't on gear so it's not "real" training. Power-lifting or more programs built with strength in mind will net normal everyday people the best results.
      At the top tiers of both sports no doubt gear is involved but when you break down the fundamentals of the types of training both styles incorporate and the training cycles they recommend for normal people, bodybuilding fails.

Not that it's unimpressive, but a power lift should conform to actual powerlifting rules, no?

    Question - as a guy who just likes to lift weights, I have often wondered how powerlifters train.
    I mean do you guys squat bench and deadlift twice a week or what? One light? One heavy? Or what does the slit look like?
    Also how do you train arms what type of exercises?
    I do squats bench and deadlift to. I'd say I'm fairly strong for the average gym rat.
    My bench is 300 pounds, my squat is 380 pounds and my deadlift is 420.
    Keep in mind I'm only about 187 pounds.
    If anyone could answer I'd be very thankful.

      How exactly is she not doing an "actual rep"? She remains in contact with the bench..lowers bar..touches...presses to lockout. Just because she is flexible enough to achieve optimal position doesn't negate the lift. That is the point of powerlifting. She uses her flexibility to her advantage. Should 7' tall basketball players play from their knees to avoid taking advantage of their genetic gifts?!

    • @DonJohnson13
      @DonJohnson13 11 років тому

      ***** Yes but YOUR definition of "improper form" is WRONG as it pertains to powerlifting. If a lifter gets a weight passed in competition then they are using proper powerlifting form. Her reps would pass in a competition. That really should be the end of the discussion.
      Just because other people bench differently than her doesn't make her wrong. She is taking advantage of her flexibility to move the most weight possible withing the rules of her SPORT. The difference is she actually COMPETES and is JUDGED.

    exactly. we care how we look. but in order to do that we still need SOME functional strength (which most guys at the average commercial gym don't have lol) and a rigid diet. I respect powerlifting in that the training is harder than bodybuilding but don't forget that training is the EASY part for a bodybuilder. counting macros, prepping and eating 6-8 quality meals/day...that diet's tough dude. oh and don't forget posing that's a skill too.

    No need to insult bodybuilders. There's a beautiful aspect in bodybuilding and powerlifting.

    I train twice a day. However, the total training is probaly 1.5 hours to maybe 2. Heavy movement in the morning/volume work at night. I agree though. That would be ridiculous for someone that isn't on gear

    Moving a heavy object once with maximal force is a little thing called "strength" maybe you've heard of it. It's quite useful in just about any sport like football, weightlifting, track and field, baseball, hockey, basketball, etc. Yes you need endurance too but to imply that maximal strength is unimportant in sport is dumb.

    They should add log/overhead press to powerlifting imo.

    • @jannehuovinen5959
      @jannehuovinen5959 9 років тому +1

      I thought it would add more variety to the sport and therefore thought of it as a good idea at first. The problem is that the overhead press is very hard to judge, since people can bend backwards to reduce the range of motion. This is the reason why the "Clean & Press" was removed from Olympic Weightlifting in 1972.

    high bar handless squats are not too dificult when the loads are not maximal, plenty of people can do them at 75%+ of 1 rep max.

    Mac the girl arches her back for that extra power lift its still correct wen people say keep ur back straight its due to preventing an injury on ur lower back but there are ways to arch ur back a certain way so that u dont injure it takes alot of practice

  • @PJSM94
    @PJSM94 11 років тому

    You know there is raw PL right? Honestly, I can't even arch my back that much as some people. It definitely helps, but personally it has protected my shoulders more benching like that. 2 different sports. 2 different goals. ME strength, vs aesthetics.. ELE :)

  • @LiekABaus
    @LiekABaus 11 років тому

    Yea i know not all powerlifters are fat (character limits limited my ability to specify). But alot of people, myself included, put on alot of fat if they dirty bulk. If you are just going for big lifts, perpetual dirty bulking is definitely the way to go.
    But for alot of folks a perpetual dirty bulk will make them less fit overall. Thus a strict powerlifting routine vs a strict bodybuilding routine, doesnt necessarily entail better fitness or performance. Only point i was making.

  • @DonJohnson13
    @DonJohnson13 11 років тому

    You are right...HATE is definitely the way to bring all the Strength Sports together. Nicely done.
    Wait...don't strongmen wear supportive gear, use straps some time, use chalk, use tacky? I don't think any one is better than the other..they are 3 different things...they just happen to "look" kind of similar.
