In any case, too bad that you need to lift big numbers in order to have any confidence or self esteem.
Maybe not, but your comment up there is just screaming āI need to lift big number to feel like I worth somethingā.
And itās sad if you actually do see your self worth mostly based on how much you can liftā¦
If you are the same weight as I am and natural then feel free to flameā¦
And if youār not - well then thatās just lame⦠and that makes you lame too. But naturally, this is an internet forum and you can state that you have 40kg and squat 180kg for 10 reps. So Iāll still assume that you are lame unless you give some proof that you are not.
You hatin and jealous as hell. No, lifting big numbers shouldnāt affect or reflect your self worth, but lifting big numbers can reflect the knowledge you actually have about lifting. You should stay in your lane with these poverty lifts.
Hereās the thing, youāre seriously going to criticize a world-record deadlifter for doing a few shots of whiskey before a submaximal deadlift for āputting his spine at riskā, when your max is probably not even his 2nd or 3rd warmup set? And all this is on a post where youāre essentially asking āIs beer healthy/unhealthy?ā
If somebodyās not natty and the same weight as you, they got ripped off.
Anyway, I was kind of humoring you, but go ahead and call me lame if you feel better afterwards. Iāll take that any day over being the guy who brags in a forum about squatting 120 kg as his max saying that āitās a lot.ā
I posted the British Powerlifting Female Uni records to see how he stacks up to women who are 48 and 52kg squatting and deadlifting (and probably benching) more than him.
This is not mean to denigrate top level female athletes, but to show him what āa lot of weightā looks like.
Thereās no comparison if you pull up the mens records:
I really donāt know how to address this in a nice way⦠Iāll just say that calling those lifts āsolidā is⦠misguided. They really arenāt, not for anyone whoās spent more than a few months lifting.
And nobody cares that youāre under 70kg. Being skinny and weak isnāt something most people would brag about. Your deadlift number isnāt even good for your weight, and youāre waaaaay underweight (unless youāre extremely short. like under 5ā6. are you?)
Funny enough for somebody whoās under 155lbs and only wants to gain 2.2lbs a month, he has a lot to stay in the Pharma section as if heās an expert. But deadlifting āputs your spine at riskā
Also to add, the British female university records for squat are:
120kg in the 52kg class
125kg in the 57klg class
137.5 in the 67kg class
And for deadlift:
135 in the 45kg class
140.5 in the 52kg class
150.5 in the 57kg class
187.5 in the 63kg class
Again, Iām not denigrating these athletes. These are what solid numbers look like.
For men in the 66kg class, a solid number for that weight is a 195kg squat and 251 deadlift. Thatās almost double what you consider a solid number. @probnit8
Energy drinks have a lot of sugar which in excess translates to fat, beer has a lot of carbs and alcohol slows metabolism, so really⦠no difference. Just trying to figure out which is the lesser evil OP?
