first guy very asymetrical right side totally overpowers his left in terms of development. second guy did and amazing sumo deadlift.

also proves hoisting heavy weights doesn't make an impressive body. it's the old apples oranges thing. guy pic'd used to use relatively light weight baby. who is more impressively developed the pler or mister samuels.
-
The squat on Malanichev.....he made that look easy and took a step back.

Which isn't the point...look at Green, he's pretty well developed. he's not that guy but he'd crush that guy in the gym. The only similarity between powerlifting and BB these days is that they both take place in a gym.
-
Dan Green looks like shit.....ok dude. You'd kill to look like him....you'd sell your made up kid, all your gimmicks and never get on getbig again to look like him one night in you 'club".
-
...u should love the guy...he's with a crazy black chick.

i know what the point is, but i believe this post belongs on the powerlifting section of getbig, where it would get the proper respect it deserves. props to both guys superstrong. down thru the years several men have excelled in plfting and bbing. men like bill seno , pat neve just to name two.
-
I completely agree....except here on GB...the powerlifting board is where threads go to die.
There have been plenty of guys that look good and have done what u mentioned. With the advent of gear, I think more people think fat guy when thinking of powerlifters.
-
Lol, a dude does a unique feat of squatting 460kg raw, with very good form, but on getbig the queens can only mention "he doesn't have an impressive physique". :D The guy is 6 feet wide IRL and would make you look like holocaust victims lol.
-
Fuck Dan Green looks huge at 5'10 220lbs. When was the weigh in?
-
This was tame compared to most of these threads...
Gotta figure they weighted in Friday.

Yeah, friday late afternoon / evening. I've heard this one was a hard cut. Offhand I think his off season weight is running #250ish.
-
That's monster strength right there. :o

Generally they are allowed to weigh in 24 hours before they have to lift. Some people have the ability to cut a lot and fully recover in this time. Others do no. As I have become more experienced, I have found that unless you have a very good reason to be in a lower weight class "all time world records and such" cutting weight much more than about 5lbs of your normal weight is just not worth the strength loss that you take.
-
I gotta agree. I hover at around 226 and while 6/7 lbs is not a huge cut I feel it. I had a meet in Oct and weighted in at 230 and then dropped to 217 for an Army PT test and weight in. I cut way to fast and the first weeks back into training sucked. I'm never setting any records so 225 is fine for me.

dude, you and I keep finding stuff that we agree about (although this one is pretty easy)
Dan Green is a beast and has an insane build
-
both malanichev and green are superior strength athletes
incredible power and strength and technique
A.M. smoked that 1014 squat- prob could have done 1100+
this is real powerlifting not like those fat fucks doing bench only in their cheat suits
-
women would not desire him at the club amongst juiced up ripped curl bros
Because you would know what women desire. How did that work out for you? ;D
-
These guys are seriously impressive athletes.
Yes, ATHLETES.
Few will ever fully understand the freak strength required to hoist these kinds of poundages.
-
Admiring a person's athletic abilities, versus watching giant musclemen in thongs "battle it out". Tough choice for some.
-
Everything we can do and do is ridiculous by some standard. Bodybuilding, ridiculous. Powerlifting, ridiculous. All sports, ridiculous and useless.
-

name that mucho macho club
;D
-
it's extremely hard
but it just is so boring and uninteresting to watch some fat slobs do a shaky single with a ton of weight and they dont even have freak physique to show for it
that's why the world record bench press prize is $5000 lmao
nobody gives a fuck
really, but you could not afford to pay $ 500 gym fee ;D

Powerlifting to me outweighs politics....by far.
-
you mean giant bloated obese fuckheads doing some ego lifts in a singlet shouting at a barbell with a bunch of other fat men slapping them around the ears, on the ass and back
COME ON YOU CAN DOO IT WHAAAAHHH WHAAHHH
and then do a shaky rep with a weight to impresss some other obese fuck heads
and if they break a world record they can win 5K
lmao
epic "sport"
"athletic abilities" means having favorable limb proportions, shooting a ton of juice in your ass, picking things up and down
great talent righ there, makes gymnastics look easy ;D
Dan Green comes off as bloated?..u lift so ur arms look good in a tight shirt, come on dude.
-
Malanichev's 460kg sqt is beyond ridiculous.
-
is that syntholed midget your boyfriend?
No...I'm trying to understand your thought process. And as I've said before....these guys, even the bloated messes make u feel bad about yourself. You couldn't get your daily affirmation or hug from guys like that, like you do from the board here. Green just happens to be jacked and strong. I respect the strength he has...

Anabolic Halo - over the last year or so Ive started to train mainly for strength after spending my first few years lifting with more of a bodybuilder type mentality.
Ive gained a fair bit of size, some of it fat obviously. I've lost the six pack and the "bicep vascularity". BUT I've found that nothing is more satisfying and motivating than getting stronger every time you train. No feelings of being lean or pumped or "dialed in" can compare.
I've nothing against bodybuilding or training for aesthetics but I think that once you try training purely for strength you become hooked on the sheer feeling of being powerful and awesome.
And be honest, most powerlifters DON'T look like obese slobs. Most are between 10 and 20 percent bodyfat and have dense, powerful physiques. Many raw lifters have physiques that are years ahead of most gym lifters training for aesthetics
-
It's training around the suit that ruined powerlifting, if you looked at guys even in the light single ply era, most up until the SHW classes were built like brickhouses or at least athletic looking. When the game changed to suit and shirt experts that changed a bit, now it's just starting tilt the other way.

Exactly. Raw lifters have to get strong all over. Look at guys like Doug Young, Ed Coan, Bill Kazmaier, Roger Estep. Even bodybuilders from the "Golden Era" who incorporated many compound lifts and were very strong, had a different, denser look, which even at a higher bodyfat percentage is a lot more impressive than most modern bodybuilders.

What have you accomplished recently? Not everyone who competes in a discipline or sport does it for fame or money. It is about creatively and productively challenging yourself.
The problem is, people attribute value to things in terms of superficial assets i.e. money, attention, vainglorious praise. The problem is these pursuits are hollow, and money (while it obviously has worth) is a means and not an end. Can you fathom the dedication these individuals have conjured up in pursuit of their passion? That is what creates a sense of fulfilment when an individual's talent or potential is actualised, and that is a reward that has true quality and depth.
You don't pursue a passion to "get" something, you do it out of legitimate love for that particular thing (or person).
