    Bench press - paused vs touch and go

    Pausing generally makes the lift harder. I started pausing because I needed to for comps. But even if you dont compete making the lift harder wont do you any harm in terms of strength and hypertrophy.

    Injuries

    I like to think of injuries as tax and strength as wealth. If you want to get wealthy you are going to have to pay some tax. But if you dont take everything available to you to minimise your tax then you're paying tax you dont need to. Ultimately limiting your wealth. Take all the...

    Markos you've written MANY times if you cant go 100/140/180 you're a novice. And yes Rory has now got himself a good deal, a damn good deal!

    "Form"

    The above is very clear. And clearly incorrect. The forum gets clogged with shit like this and then anyone looking for good info has to be a fucking detctive to find the valuable info from people like steve and adam. Guys who have put in the hard yards and are elite lifters rather than still...

    "Form"

Started training at 79kg in 2007, made the above lifts early 2010, took a few holidays and injurys in those 3 years no not solid training the whole time...

    "Form"

    Mate you can regurgiate as much of Markos's words as you like but it wont make you any stronger or any less injured. Please find for me when I said anything about arching or ROM? You wont because I said nothing about that. I said refining movement. Proper setup, position on the bench...

    If you honestly think you could make no improvement through refining your movement you are simply showing your ignorance.

    "Form"

    So there is nothing wrong with you're movement, just doing it too often resulted in a serious injury. You're logic is retarded. You've been training for years mike yet you haven't squatted 3 wheels plus you're injured. I'm sure you know what you're doing.

    3 boards for Darryl would be about 1cm of movement!

    "Effort"

    Mike you make a great effort maybe once every few months. All the time in between is filled with no lifting, shit eating, no sleep or a combination of other rubbish. Effort aint your problem. COSISTENCY IS!

    "Form"

    Mike you must be retarded. Last night you were complaing to me about how your lwr back is fucked, how it literally crippled you yesterday for a few minutes. Yet you're not even at Markos's beginner standards of strength despite years of training, and youre injured to boot. FFS Thinking you...

    Squat depth

    I've never seen a bigger soap opera than in the powerlifting scene. There's less gossip, bitching, rumors, rubbish, bullshit and in an episode of home and away. Its tiring and fucking embarassing.

    Squat depth

    I'm with you on that one. Squat as low as you can on every rep if you want to train for strength. Having said that if you want to win comps and judges will pass it I can see why guys squat shallow. Squat depth is always going to be an issue in powerlifting simply because it is subjective...
