The most annoying thing at the gym, “hey, you’re pretty strong, have you ever heard of Larry wheels”

[bradgetsswole]

If you over head press with a barbell while wearing a forward facing ball hat, and the hat doesn’t go flying off you head when the bar hits it, there is something wrong. Either your bar path is shit, or your head position through the press is wrong.

The 105kg national champion is putting on seminars which amongst other things, includes how to optimize sleep.

2 of every 8 days I work 7pm-7am, and typically stay nocturnal for the subsequent 3 days.

Not making excuses, idk, just ranting.

[bradgetsswole]

My gym will not have 35’s or preset bars (of any kind)

[bradgetsswole]

I’m going to make a bold statement.

The Tricep kickback is the worst executed, and most useless movement off all upper body movements.

Exclusion is a high level bodybuilder putting “finishing touches” to an otherwise flawless arm.

“Convince me otherwise”

[bradgetsswole]

Pretty fucked if you ask me, that 1,000 balloons didn’t drop from the ceiling after I deadlifting a lifetime PR.

The world goes on as if nothing has changed.

No one gives a fuck about your PR.

I’m not saying my bench technique is perfect, but it is shocking watching just how inefficient some nfl prospects are at benching 225 for reps.

[bradgetsswole]

If you say “barbell squats” goodbye.

[bradgetsswole]

Guys will come in the gym during my warmup and leave before I even do a working set. Those same guys will accuse me of steroids.

Just thinking out loud.

[bradgetsswole]

If you can pick up a bar, press it over head and put it on your back (a bear it’s called) then I’m going to make a bold statement and say, it is too light to for you to get an adaptation response.

Basically, hey, people using preset bars for squatting, you’re spinning you’re god damn tires.

[bradgetsswole]

Obviously, do whatever you want, but don’t call yourself a bodybuilder if youve never been on a stage and don’t call yourself a powerlifter if you’ve never been on a platform.

There’s a difference between “bodybuilding” (lifting weights) and being a bodybuilder. When you call yourself a bodybuilder but have never been on a stage it minimizes the efforts of people who, quite literally, go through torture (self inflicted) to bring their best package to the stage.

Same deal with the difference between being a powerlifter vs powerlifting. It’s okay to enjoy powerlifting (squat, bench and deadlift) but calling yourself a powerlifter if you’ve never put yourself through the hoops, the ups and the downs, that it takes to get to the platform, and then the process of competing.. just.. don’t call yourself a powerlifter if you’re not a powerlifter. That’s all.

Some people drunk text, I take high doses of pre-workout and post rants on my tumblr

[bradgetsswole]

Absolutely, do whatever you want with your social media platform.

On a 100% related note.. don’t use your uniform, whatever it may be, to make your content more interesting or stand out more.

A guy benching 405 for 3 gets about 100 views.

The same guy benching 405 for 3 in a police uniform got reposted to a powerlifting page and got 1000’s if views.

Of course there’s an incentive to do this type of thing. But remember why you signed up.

I became a LEO to catch bad guys and help people who are vulnerable. Not to get insta likes.

Again, just my opinion, and do whatever you want.. but come on.

[bradgetsswole]

One thing I don’t partially like about powerlifting is when after you do a lift on the platform you pause, look at the lights, if the light passes, then you cheer.

That would be like scoring in hockey, staying calm, looking up at the jumbotron, waiting for the refs decision, then cheering.

Idk if I’m making my point effectively or not.. but that disconnect between the lift and the gratification of success due to the lights is an oddity I don’t care for.
