Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

Stay out my way.

I’m the type of cat, that’ll make you reconsider lifting or call it quits early. My warm up sets are like 3x more than the average persons working set.

this is a message board sir. populated by "average" people. why are you here? gatekeeping lifting? we all wanna better ourselves and your smug demeanor doesnt make you special.

Not being smug just telling you how reality plays out.

I actually prefer an empty for this reason

@Son Goku i know your the deadlift king got a question thats been pretty popular the last couple months, do you think sumo deadlifts are "cheating" compared to the regular deadlift?

Yes you're only lifting the weight 1/3 the way up, glorified kettlebell swing

What's wrong with the tank?

My weight stabilized at 185ish so my entire wardrobe is based on that

I get to 200+ i won’t be able to fit anything and the drop in mobility for strength ain’t worth it for me


Edit: also people already think I’m 210+

Ok I was thinking the same thing a lot of "influencers" are deadlifting 800+ using the sumo technique

Guy at the gym recommended this product, anybody heard anything about it?

Never heard of it, but by all the "fancy words" and "technical" phrases and them adding the "var" to the end of it, it sounds like they're just trying to play some fake powder up to makke it seem like it has the potency of an anabolic without it being an anabolic, think "test boosters"

According to Nippard, the “sumo deadlift is cheating” argument is contingent on two factors — that an athlete can lift more weight due to the setup and execution of the sumo deadlift, and that the exercise is advantageous due to its purportedly-shorter range of motion.

Sumo Deadlifts Harder? Sumo deadlifts are a harder deadlift variation for those who have limited hip mobility and are weak through the quads. The sumo deadlift moves slowly off the ground and so it requires lots of tension to be harnessed through the legs when compared to conventional.

Because the sumo deadlift usually allows for a heavier load to be lifted, this allows you to overload your muscles with more weight than they're used to handling.
