They have to keep their body weight at ridiculously high levels for most times which puts a lot of pressure on their heart, and a lot of that body weight is not only muscle but fat too, they have to eat around 8k or even more calories to maintain it which isn’t very healthy at all
Exactly lol. A lot of powerlifters (or at least the ones who are smart) incorporate plyometrics in their workouts as well. People love to talk about things they know nothing about.
you're confusing maximal recruitment with rate of recruitment. Snatches for example are the most powerfull movement you can do despite the wr being a lot lighter than a squat yet their is a clear difference in power production
I think usable explosiveness is a better word. Think about it this way while on the way up heavy squat/dead/bench is very explosive however long brace and singular motion is not ideal for instantaneous explosion for sports. This training methodology is great for increasing raw power and setting a great base for explosive training.
explosive as in speed. if you tried to jump at the same speed you did a squat max, you wouldnt leave the ground. Athletes do training to not only have stronger muscle, but faster muscle. Powerlifters generally don't squat as fast as you would jump so its not good for training your vertical for example. Athletes do a lot of light weight or weightless plyometrics which helps build up speed from a still position to move faster, jump higher, and change directions quicker. I say all this as a powerlifter myself.
@@jaycollett2853 I know. It's just that they're so puzzled because I use light weights (50% BW) to work on technique while the norm is >100% BW for deadlifts.
Step 1. Build a base by using foundational compound lifts (Squat, Deads, Bench, OHP) and playing sports regularly Step 2. Be kind of strong now and start to focus more on Sports specificity Step 3. Keep getting strong but add more and more sports specificity Step 4. Start to miss getting ridiculously big and strong. Step 5. Powerlifting becomes your sports specificity! Step 6. Realize you miss being athletic and get into strongman. Step 7. Profit.
I’m a weightlifter who’s dabbled in powerlifting, If you wanna squat bench and deadlift more, do lots of squat bench and deadlift. Don’t do Olympic lifts, the skill acquisition requirement for those lifts is insane, you will spend months drilling technique so you can get enough weight on the bar to make them useful. In those months you’ve spent doing technique drills, know what you could been doing? Adding kilos to your SBD and increasing proficiency in those lifts that you actually want to get good at! Weightlifting training is fun, and it’s an amazing skill to learn, but if you just wanna SBD, don’t bother learning Olympic lifts
I’d say it’s generally safe to SBD hard whilst learning basic technique for Olympic lifts. Once you get proficient, it might be a decision of which path you want to pursue, but you might find you prefer Olympic lifts after all. I found I didn’t like them, but it’s still good to have.
@@steverossen2816 oh yeah it is an amazing skill and it is perfectly safe to do it as you said. my only pushback is there are better ways to spend your time
I’ve spent three months on Olympic lifts now after 5 years just lifting normally. It’s so different. It’s also way more athletic. It’s also nearly impossible to program along with regular bodybuilding.
I agree the impulse and plyometrics training is important. However, in my experience what makes the biggest difference is full ROM reps, 10 or more, slowly in control, with a big stretch of the muscles during the eccentric with a slight pause at the bottom making sure to go to a complete stop. Everyday. Lifting like a powerlifter made my shoulders super tight and I wasn't getting stronger. Once I started doing full ROM reps everyday just to get the muscles stretched and activated, those reps make all the difference in the world. They will still build strength but also rapidly improve inflammation and stiffness. One big one is Viking presses, I have a great setup and do them everyday with the big impulse to start the concentric but 90% of the time it's fairly light and still enough to increase strength then when the weight is going back to shoulders it's a controlled eccentric stretch that slowly goes to a complete rest at the bottom. It made my powerlifting numbers go through the roof because I wasn't so stiff and sore, which makes sleeping infinitely easier. Doing more reps with way more stretch is what my shoulders needed. I do the same thing on deadllift. Deficit lifts that are light but still heavy enough to get stronger and the muscles stretch on the way down never slamming the weight it always comes to a rest like a feather because the weight is light enough to control the entire way. Now I can bend over to tie my shoes, I'm not afraid of my back going out and the max powerlift numbers are going up. I was able to lean over and pick up 2 year old niece yesterday without feeling immense pain. Highly recommend the full ROM stretch reps. Plyometrics is a focus on the concentric but the fastest overall gains are made in the eccentric.
Train Full Range movements, you can still squat, deadlift and bench but use full ROM. My knees and hips became so much stronger doing ATG squats. In fact ATG makes you a total beast.
I train like a powerlifter because that’s my goal. But could incorporate some cleans and snatch. The numbers just don’t go up though lol on those lifts.
if u practice them more then the numbers will definitely go up. its really mostly technical on weightlifting movements rather than pure strength reliant like SBD. not to say strength doesnt matter tho because it absolutely does. but if u dont practice weightlifting movements consistently then the weight on the bar will progress very slowly for sure
Hey guys if you want to train line powerlifters, do it. We don't use impulses because we need to control the weight, it's a completely different discipline
That’s not impulse. Impulse, quite simply put, is how much total force was applied to change the velocity of an object and is seen as the amount of area underneath the force-time curve in a force-time graph. One way to increase impulse is to increase your RFD (the high speed movements discussed in the video) and increase your peak force production, but another way is to increase the time of force application (time under tension). This would be advantageous for certain positions in teams where they have to hold certain positions against opposition and to change the opposition’s rate of velocity to be counterproductive to their aim (I.e. the O-Line in Gridiron or the forwards in scrums for rugby). For these positions, powerlifting training would be beneficial for them. It’s all up to the aim of the athlete and their positional demands for their sport the style of training which is best
Does training with Olympic lifts help with increasing the ratio of fast-twitch fibres for power sports that require it? Or are the changes mostly neurological?
That's why i walk before i run, Run before i sprint, then take a water break then go into my 5x5 workout, start low go high, finish my powerlifting workout. I do what i want!
To maximise speed and power your training needs to address both sides of the force velocity curve during training blocks. High weight low rep resistance training is the best way to increase one’s ability to produce maximal force (I.e the force side of the curve) and the other exercises he recommend are great for improving one’s rate of force production I.e (the velocity side of the curve). Both are required to optimise power.
So Force * time = Impulse, right? Lets take 400kg deadlift for example: 400kg * 10 =4000N , the time is 5 seconds. The impulse is 4000 * 5 =20 000 Ns or kgm/s Is it a bad impulse? I dont think so.
Noone tries to max out slow. It is slow because it's maximal effort, not because they are slow to recruit. I garuntee a person who can squat 800 will throw 400 faster than a person who can only squat 450. You just need pylometrics, sprints and heavy weights. Everything else is fluff. Just lift heavy, do your jumps, do your sprints, and train your sport. That's it. No more, certainly no less. Sport specific training is a myth. Your in the gym to get strong not to lift sport specific. You want sport specific? Do your sport.
You train in the gym to develop the adaptations you need for the field. At the extremes, (Like an 800+ lb squat) the adaptations you see are counter productive to performance on the field. Things like muscle pennation angle increases and CNS adaptations will trade off rate of force development for peak force output.
Or you could use accomodating resistance on the bar and lift explosively, and incorporate jumping. The Olympic lifts have a steep learing curve and not necessary.
that doesnt mean you cant do them. you dont even need to learn the full Clean and jerk or a full snatch. you'll be just fine with hanging power cleans and hanging power snatches which both only take 2 or 3 sessions to learn the correct mechanics
You know what a crazy idea is you can do both just add a heavy day and add a speed work day and boom you are utilizing both methods and getting the maximum gains
You fail to understand. If you are an athlete you need to develop your FAST twitch muscle fibers need to be trained with speed which is why the most explosive athletes are sprinters, long and triple jumpers and Olympic Weightliftingers.
But if I want to succeed at powerlifting, should I not train like a powerlifter? How will cleans and snatches help me - as in why pick on powerlifters specifically? I think we should just train for our goals. If you want to be athletic and stuff, maybe going all in on powerlifting isn't the best idea. Vice versa, if you want to succeed at powerlifting, train the movements you'd be expected to perform at a meet
There’s nothing wrong with incorporating Olympic lifts but you’re recruiting abilities. Depends on your genetics. Choose your parents wisely. You’ll never turn 18 inch vertical into a 30 inch vertical.
Powerlifting is not about speed since they lift weights that test their maximal strength. Although there is a fast impulse frequency in the motor unit recruitment which is a result of spesific training. Not some some jumpy bumpy stuff.
I’m a Dad have to train like a PowerLifter bc 3 kiddos demand I lift them, toss them in the air, put them over my shoulders, do the swirly thingy not one kid two one on each arm, squat them while holding them with my arms stretched out while they lay down, and so forth!😂😊
Remember you have to hurdle the front desk at work then power clean the receptionist before you start your day. Thats functional. In all seriousness 99% of people arent athletes lol just get as strong and as jacked as possible lol
Powerlifting is not the same thing as strength training. It's like comparing tennis to baseball just because the both swing at balls. It's not the same.
There are a lot of people saying that powerlifters can't do x, don't be a powerlifter. That's fucking stupid, do whatever you want to do. I bet most Olympic weightlifters can't do an ultra marathon, but who cares?
His focus is on a functional body in all aspects I presume l, hence why speed and explosiveness is important as he points out, if your focus is on strength then obviously go for it
Please, please, NEVER do snatches, cleans and jerks unless you know proper technique. These exercises are very technically demanding and WILL lead to injury, if you do them incorrectly. Also, olympic lifting is a difficult sport of its own, you can't mix it up with other types of exercises too much. So if you wanted to do snatches, cleans etc., you would have to train like an olympic lifter, more or less. Just like you would train more or less like a powerlifter in order to move big weights. Surely, everyone is unique, and so should be your training routine, but there're also some arbitrary rules that most find useful. Your body needs to recover from physically demanding exrecises, such as any kind of weightlifting, olympic lifting even more so. You simply won't be able to train effectively and maintain a good technique, if you also start doing a lot of cardio, for instance.

You are correct, that is why the Chinese weightlifting team are so big on maximal pulls for the clean deadlift and snatch pull
Just because a given load is observed as moving slowly doesn't indicate the sheer violence of force being applied to the load to make it move.
or powerlift, and incorporate explosive lifts and plyometrics as accessories
olympic lifts will not build mass because there is no focus on the eccentric, its literally "jerking" the weight up as fast as you can
I have to train like a powerlifter because my body at my age can’t handle jerky fast movements 😂
I’m 57 and I listen to my body, not an influencer on RUclips.
So Force * time = Impulse, right?
Lets take 400kg deadlift for example:
400kg * 10 =4000N , the time is 5 seconds.
The impulse is 4000 * 5 =20 000 Ns or kgm/s
Is it a bad impulse? I dont think so.
This is great advice for building strength and conditioning workouts for athletes in most sports, but what if I'm training to be a powerlifter? 🤔

Boys, training like a powelifter is fine, but he's talking about this from an explosive athlete perspective. Some pylometrics wouldn't hurt to add
I see you got too injured to lift what you could and leaned out and done bb or CrossFit type stuff like all us older powerlifters. 👍👍
His focus is on a functional body in all aspects I presume l, hence why speed and explosiveness is important as he points out, if your focus is on strength then obviously go for it
He doesn't do powerlifting.

Train like an athlete❌
Train like a lifter✅
Powerlifting is good if u mix it up with calisthenics
Your benefits is for athlete's and there benefits is to be strong so all you said here was train for what you do 😂😅 got it
They are the best at their sport and still look sick.
Please, please, NEVER do snatches, cleans and jerks unless you know proper technique. These exercises are very technically demanding and WILL lead to injury, if you do them incorrectly. Also, olympic lifting is a difficult sport of its own, you can't mix it up with other types of exercises too much. So if you wanted to do snatches, cleans etc., you would have to train like an olympic lifter, more or less. Just like you would train more or less like a powerlifter in order to move big weights.
Surely, everyone is unique, and so should be your training routine, but there're also some arbitrary rules that most find useful.
Your body needs to recover from physically demanding exrecises, such as any kind of weightlifting, olympic lifting even more so. You simply won't be able to train effectively and maintain a good technique, if you also start doing a lot of cardio, for instance.
