You have a higher 5rm if you bounce deadlifts than if you reset each time. It's a good way to overload the top portion of a deadlift. Bad if your weakness is breaking the bar off the floor.
This guy unironically lifts like this. He does all of it on purpose, this is how he actually trains. Insta is elcampeonnnn. He does the back slapping thing every single time he does a heavier lift. He's prob autistic or something.
You realize literally everyone is able to quarter squat way more than they can actually squat right? Dude has no chance of doing even 3 plates below parallel
Yes, I actually lift unlike many people here. I have squatted 405 low bar to parallel, and done 10x315 is probably my best set. I have never tried a walkout with more than 495, and my rack pull max is 645, so I do find his dumb lifts pretty impressive. He's clearly robbing himself by only doing super heavy lifts with no ROM, not my concern.

>495 walkout
maybe cause you already know it's not necessary to train for. People who practice shitty workouts get good at shitty workouts. >645 rack pull
a legit rack pull or just yanking the bar high enough that you can say you lifted it? That's the difference here. This dude isn't impressive, just annoying as frick.

walkouts are valid... bracing is one of those things you can never spend enough time working on IMO.
I'm just saying that this guy is a featherweight bloatlord. Nobody should ever take him as a model of how to lift, but what he does is moderately impressive as well as colossally misguided.

Walkouts are a legit technique, prime's the nervous system and all that but there's still a certain way to do it effectively.
>featherweight bloatlord
Really he's just an egolord. Literally anyone can be brave enough to do something stupid like quarter squatting 3 plates above your actual working weight. The only thing impressive is how confident he is in doing something so stupid.
>it actually gets worse
Christ, how has the staff not kicked him out for being disruptive? I would actually complain everyday if I went to the same gym as him. >inb4 ur a Karen
Frick working out with some moron who is hogging the gym floor and in the process of actively destroying equipment.
That pic is el campeon in a nutshell. He doesn't care about how much he can actually lift. He cares about what it looks like to other people what he's about to life.
>can somehow lift like a moron at 40 >meanwhile all my joints hurt despite watching my form and only deviating slightly on max effort sets
Life is simply unfair
people tipically dont get injured necause they egolift like he does, they get injured because they are either stupid and egolifting with momentum or because they are strong and pushing themselves too much. I wouldnt expect him to get injured on "squats" and "rack pulls", i would see him getting injured here
>Im old and joint pain lol
You need to do a couple of things. >use compression from lifting gear to reduce joint stress during compound lifts
Put elbow wraps on when you bench or press, Put knee wraps on when you squat, Use a belt when you deadlift, squat, or do a standing overhead press. >update your programming
-Ensure you understand the difference between top sets and working weight. Your topset weight is how much you can do at a certain amount of reps going all out (with good form). Your working weight should be 90% your topset weight, even less depending on your experience level. You want to mostly be working with a weight where you still have at least 3 reps left in the chamber if you went all out.
-Make sure you do a deload week (80% working weight and 50% volume in first half, 50% weight and 50% volume in second half)
-Vary your rep ranges and exercise selection a bit. If you squat heavy at 5 reps earlier in the week try some lighter (feeling) belt squats at 10-12 reps later in the week. If you bench heavy at 5 reps, also do some light close grip bench at 10-12 reps.
-On isolation movements such as bicep curl or lateral raise ensure you're using the lightest weight possible by using the best technique possible. bring the weight to the top of the movement quickly (without swinging), then slowly drop the weight for 3-4 seconds til you're at the bottom, pause for a split second then go back up. Don't pause at all at the top of the movement, as soon as you're there go back down. You will be able to generate the same effective stimulus but with less weight.
-Be conscious of how volume may overlap. If you do 3 sets of pullups 3 days a week, bent over row 3 times a week, do curls 3 times a week, you've hit your biceps for 27 sets that week! Then obviously don't bench and overhead press in the same day because they overlap on the shoulders.
>bench >elbow issues
lol >rows >pullups >biceps
do you even lift? this is a serious question.
It seems to me like so many people who have been lifting for decades are complete morons about training, like...they never stopped for 1 second tp think about what they are doing.
For example; the owner of my gym was a professional open bodybuilder, he won some serious competitions which i will not be disclosing. Still, he spergs out at random gym goers about how to do cable flys to "FEEL IT IN THE CHEST SON", spergs out at random gym goers lifting heavy weights for low reps etc...
crazy.
You're just as bad as ego lifters. You're the one who can be given a genuinely good pointer and take it personally. So you end up doing the same shitty things you usually do.
Yeah I am pretty much glued to my knee sleeves now (try to avoid using the elbow ones unless necessary) but I can't use a belt period. I'm so used to bracing beltless that I injure myself every time I use a belt.
As far as programming goes, I'm running juggernaut and it comes with prescribed % and reps, periodized so there's different rep ranges along with deloads. As soon as I bulked back up after a cut and starter trying to break my ceiling with new prs all the injuries came back. It's not even a form thing half the time, I think it's just that I'm very good at putting myself into maximum fatigue.
I'm also very slow at progress in general, especially cardio. I'm pretty sure I'm just a GDE, my experience in fitness can be summed up to my track career where I would bust my ass in practice, to the point getting pats on the back for it by the coaches, then get outran by these dudes that would frick off to smoke weed in the woods rather than do the workouts. My easy injuries is probably linked to my shitty progress in all things fitness.
>no video
what a useless thread
This was a screen from the guys insta. he didn't post video lmao. I'll grab him actually deadlifting
The king himself. So strong he can make 25 pound plates disappear just by thinking about it
>Bouncing dls
Don't disrespect our champion
If he actually lifted, he might be bigger. What a DYEL
Honestly, who cares?
You have a higher 5rm if you bounce deadlifts than if you reset each time. It's a good way to overload the top portion of a deadlift. Bad if your weakness is breaking the bar off the floor.
Awful form. His back is hunched . What a disgusting little jungle monkey
why are these so fricking funny?
>dem legs
when your form is so that you need 2 belts to do cheat biceps curls kek
This champion lives life a quarter rep at a time
What the actual…? Tell me the this is a joke.
Also, he uses three belts. One is for slapping his back.

quarter squatting five plates still isn't easy. guy is an assclown but he's having fun and by no means the worst of them

He pretty cool guy that guy doesn't afraid of anything
>adult size costume
>not child size
Almost perfect meme.
Almost.
People really need to stop humoring this guy and get him put in to an institution.
AN INSTITUTION OF WORLD RECORD CHAMPIONS
Stop it, I can't take it anymore.
HE IS THE CHAMPION OF INTERMEDIATES
>all his shit spread out across the floor
>the multiple belts
>the excessive hyping for an unimpressive lift
I hate this man
me too lmao. Someone has to have told him his lifting is dumb right?... right?
You think someome would yell at him for potentially fricking up perfectly good barbells with those "rack pulls", this guy is the anti-Grizzly.
grizzly is bloatlord. el campeon is egolord
>it actually gets worse

tbh not bad for his weight, plus he actually does conventional. I see a lot of sumosissies struggle with this weight.
>sub 4pl8 dl
>not bad
cmon now
The conventional deadlift. The one lift that cannot be cheated
>420kg
>not even close

All I can say is best of luck to you at this point
the least pathetic deadlifter
if you dont know the joy of deadlifting you dont lift.
If you dont like deadlifting you are doing it wrong.
