What's the actual point of Powerlifting?

You will never compete with Pros, you will never beat their records. You're just there, stuck looking like a fat pig in clothes. No one even thinks you're lifting, they just think they're fat. You gass out easily, you can't see your own dick. Seems pointless.

What's the point of normie bodybuilding?

To go to the renaissance festival as a scantily clad 80s style barbarian, duh.

Nobody wants to see your blob belly and lack of muscle definition. At best you could be the mountain.
>>
>>77586968
I'd assume a bodybuilder would at least be lean. I'm sick of the fat blob "vikings" or "skyrim" barbarian slop. We need to retvrn to the fit barbarians inspired by Arnold as Conan.
>>
>>77586923
It's for lazy fat retards who want to pretend they're athletes but aren't athletic enough to play sports.

Then they cope and say "Jalen Hurts can squat 650 but I can squat 675 and I'm only 200lbs heavier than him I could be a QB in the NFL."

To look good. And in most cases it works, even without roids.

Powersharters are stuck in a permabulk, looking fat, ugly and with twig arms, because arm training is just acessories lmao.

>to get stronger you need to eat less

>if your muscles are better at strength low reps then they don't get too big like a bodybuilder
I would continue on. However it's time to lift or my salad is gonna turn to flab.
>>
>>77586960
Holy cope lmao normie bodybuilding makes you look good which is just about the single highest ROI thing you can do. Being a fat bloatlord has the opposite effect.

curious how you came upon this image

im not a powerlifter, but i don't see how this sort of mindset is healthy. it can be applied to literally anything in life and the logical conclusion is to just lie down.
why do anything because you'll never be the best at said thing?
perhaps just doing the activity is pleasant? some people just want to push their own limits and see what they can achieve with what they have. perhaps they just enjoy lifting heavy things.
the knowledge that others exist who are better than you in an activity shouldn't deter you from doing it.

What the fuck is my negroid wearing?
And is there a back view?
>>
>>77586923
I just like the fact that i can link up with nice people in my club, get some tips and just have a good time together since the gym i go to is completely anti social.
Also it makes my hobby of lifting feel "official" in a way and signing up for competitions is exciting and gives me a tangible goal to work towards.
You dont have to become a fat bloatlord to do powerlifting. There are weight classes for everyone and if you just stick to like the -83kg class you can be shredded and still viably compete with other people in that class.
I recommend any anon who doesnt want to lift alone in an anti social gym all the time to try it out.

This nigga lookin' ZESTY, this nigga lookin' MOIST, he's got sugar in his tank, he's light on his feet, he's a lil bit fruity, he plays for the other team, he dances at the other end of the ballroom, this nigga theatrical, this nigga good with colors, this nigga gonna coordinate yo curtains wit yo cushions! This nigga lifts shirts, this nigga on the down low, this nigga be a toilet trader, this nigga gardens uphill, this nigga packs fudge, he's a friend of Dorothy, he feels the love that dare not speak its name, he loves to dance, he's of the Uranian brotherhood, he indulges in the French vice, he has an antipathic sexual instinct, he's fluent in Polari, he's a refugee from Sodom, he's on the wrong bus, he bats for the other team, he's temperamental, he's 'one of them'...if you catch my drift.

Powerbuilding is where its at

>>77586964
vikings likely weighed about 140-150lbs on average. there is no functional reason to have excess muscle or fat, since it will only slow you down in a raid or when farming, which is what they excelled at.
>>
>>77588257
You do know EVERYBODY was that small back then, right? It's like how people think Napoleon was a midget when really that was average height at his time/location.

Many humans in society being 200+ lbs is a relatively new phenomenon.

>Many humans in society being 200+ lbs is a relatively new phenomenon.
yes, they're that heavy on average because they're obese, not because they're tall.
>>
>>77588046
i agree but the internet is full of these fat fucks that sacrifice their health and physique to bench good and never even compete it's kinda sad
>>
>>77586923
>What's the actual point of Powerlifting?
I like being very strong
>No one even thinks you're lifting, they just think they're fat.
I don't care a lot about what other peoples think
>You gass out easily, you can't see your own dick.
I can see my dick and I can pound my wife vigorously for up to an hour straight so I'm alright on the stamina

If "bodybuilding" training has left you looking weak, small and DYEL, then training to compete in a powerlifting meet will give you a sense of purpose and focus AND if you set strength goals you will HAVE to gain muscle to hit them. At some point, the only way to get stronger is to build and grow the msucle. Powerlifting programs provide objectivity and feedback.

As a powerlifter, dont train to get fatter. Train to get stronger while honing your diet to stay within a weight class (or for your first meet, consider growing a little bit into the next weight class up). Attune your diet to build lean muscle tissue.

Its a great way to build and grow if you are stagnating.

And the reason why "meets" are called meets is because it is a meeting of those who want to throw their hat in the ring and compete on a given day. Yes, you will never be stronger than the best powerlifter in the world. But you MIGHT be strong enough to place first, second or third in a local meet, testing the mettle of those who decide to show up and compete against you. Either way, its about setting objective goals and growing to meet them.

Obese powersharters pulling 500lbs deadlifts and benching 300lbs are still weaker than a 150lbs construction worker.

Powersharting has nothing to do with in real life strength Guys like Thor and Eddie Hall can't even do a single proper bodyweight pullup.

It's funny when you remember op is a trooned out wog. 39 years old and literally doesn't go outside nor lift at all.

Yes. But for a good cause. Thank you for your service.

Yes they are. I'm not even sorry that reality hurts your feelings. Go on and disprove anything I've said, you can't. Because it's all truth.

He definitely doesn't lift or know much about lifting. That's pretty apparent when you read through his posts. Not sure why he bothers posting on a board like this.
