I keep reading on here on how powerlifters are cheating by wearing bench shirts,squat suits and groove briefs.The experts,who know next to nothing about powerlifting,always try to denegrate the sport like its a joke.Then,lo and behold,I watch these pro bodybuilders training tapes and I see Ronnie Coleman wearing a squat suit,wraps and elbow wraps.Yates has his elbows all wrapped up as well as wrist wraps and Branch Warren actually wears knee braces AND knee wraps on his top set,plus elbow wraps,wrist wraps and anything else he can get on.Somehow,no one comments and says how that stuff is bull.Everyone wears gear to lift more weights,even bodybuilders.So,to the so called experts,untill you can justify gear wearing in bodybuilding,dont bother to show your ignorance of powerlifting by discussing gear.
