Zatic, best i can think of atm in terms of women:

+ Show Spoiler [some tiny hot girl doing pretty much e…] +


You'll just have to google and youtube around a bunch. Can't think of anywhere that all that is a) of high quality and b) in one spot. All the stuff for men will be almost the same as women more or less. There's plenty of articles by women on lifting and training though that talk about whatever it is women do when they train. I assume this is for your girlfriend? lol

Someone posted a video of CanditoTraining a few days ago and he mentioned ChelseaLifts, a female powerlifter, in one of his other videos.
She has some good videos although more of the vlog type and not really tutorials. But as allready mentioned its more or less the same for males and females.
Chelsea also recommends a 'normal' program (like stronglifts 5x5) for female beginners.

hey gotunk, now that you're learning oly are you incorporating or planning to incorporate front squats and high bar squats in your lifting? Or is the main priority still powerlifting and you're still squatting in that style?

Those were high bar squats (first time ever or smth lol). Yeah I plan to do them parallel to oly lifting for this week and a few more. I am just hoping to attain a minimum level on the 3 (FS, high-bar BS, Clean and jerk) and develop more "base power", quads and back muscles. I'll add some shurgs/benches on carb days though!

But powerlifting is the main focus, after I'm done with oly lifting+cut I'll go on bulking again, and pretty much do the same training I did last time and add 10-30kg to my total once more.

Oly lifting did loads to help my quads and back strength, my deadlift went up 50 pounds without training it and now I squat high bar ATG 50 pounds more than i did low bar barely parallel. Curious to see if it helps you at all!

I heard on the Weightlifting Scoop podcast (done by the MDUSA guys, usually Travis Cooper, Pendlay and Don McCauley) that apparently there's a trend away from low barring squats in powerlifting because it can be hard to recover from the bent-overness of it if you get out of position. Also said that you could catch bounce easier in the bottom and have much lower risk of getting red lighted for not quite going low enough. I haven't heard this anywhere else, but curious if you guys think that has any merit? (I may have misrepresented what they said, it was a while ago when I listened to it)

Dunno about that competition wise, but i think there's a bit of a trend towards utilizing a more olympic style squat for building strength as a base to use when competing. I know dan green has talked a decent amount about it and he's pretty good at powerlfiting lol.

I've been watching Candito's videos, and he trains with what is essentially a highbar squat. He's a competitive powerlifter, and strong as faurk so may be worth listening to.



Edt: In a later video he corrects what he says about using flat sole shoes in the hybrid squat, and suggests olympic shoes instead.

On the topic highbar squats, I've been trying to work them in to my light squat day to get used to it, but having the bar on my traps hurts like hell. Is this something you just have to work through?

You'll get used to it, but it certainly doesn't hurt to work on your upper shoulder girdle with stuff like jump shrugs for you dynamics minded folk or stuff like face pulls/inclined shrugs/good ole normal shrugs for someone going more towards a BB style routine.

If you ever had to go through the infuriating process of explaining a girl that lifting will not blow her up into a bulky freak you will agree that a video of a hot girl teaching lifting will be 100x more valuable than one of a huge guy lifting 200kg.

decaf, thanks that's a start.

The world record holder raw in the 275lbs class used to squat high bar, so it obviously works well enough. He beat his old high bar record twice in the same competition when he switched to low bar though.
I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.

Oh did I say it was good? I meant she looks good

If you need more convincing zatic, look up Allison nyc on YouTube, she does a bunch of lifting and is hot as hell

P.S. got my hands on some free Creatine and CGT (creatine glutamine taurine). Figure i'll just go with a serving of CGT before or after i lift and then add extra creatine, for those of you that use it how much/often do you take it?

The only limit to the amount of creatine you can take is how much your digestive system can handle. The standard protocol is a loading phase with ~15g a day for about a week with ~5g a day after that to keep it "topped off" but i prefer 10+g a day all the time. I've heard of some people going as high as 60g a day. Besides the well-proven benefits of creatine on performance, there is some research to suggest that creatine also inhibits myostatin.
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

Tell her to look around all the pencil neck guys at the gym; emphazise that they all want to be big and strong, but can't despite having 15x her testosterone. Then, tell her to look around to all the bulky woman (which will be none). Then, tell her that the only woman that get bulky are the ones who take synthetic testosterone supplementation.
