Are powerlifters the biggest cringelords in the gym?

Overly fat bloatlords who have **** genetics. Weren't good enough to be a bodybuilder, and aren't large enough to be a strongman.

Chalk? Check.
Belt? Check.
Wrist straps? Check.
Knee sleeves? Check.
Olympic shoes? Check.

What the **** did you just ****ing say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the **** out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my ****ing words. You think you can get away with saying that **** to me over the Internet? Think again, ****er. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re ****ing dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little ****. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your ****ing tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will **** fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re ****ing dead, kiddo.

Curl bros have become underrated IMO. You might have had a point like 6-7 years ago - but now everyone is "fitness woke." Thanks to YouTube really.

Negged for the chalk comments. Only little bitch boys don't use chalk or care about chalk being left on a bar.

Guys who actually train to compete? Meh, not my cup of tea but to each their own.

The biggest *******s are the ones that try to train like a power lifter to boost their own ego with no intention of competing. I’m talking about the twinks doing good morning squats and benching with so much arch they might as well be a contortionist. Making lots of noise for no reason, blasting Disturbed through their earbuds so everyone can hear it on the other side of the gym, plus all the aforementioned belts, sleeves, chalk and stupid pre-lift dance rituals, just to do one, really ugly rep.

I kinda cringe at the the 40 year old 260 pound bloatlord powerlifters that bench like 405. These guys are in every gym, some of them even compete.

Thing is they’d actually be decent powerlifters if they cut 45 pounds. Would sacrifice a little weight on their lifts. But would be 2 weight classes lower.

But idgaf really. Definitely not rustled like ******* Op

Biggest Cringe Lords are the 25+ all in 2hour bodybuilding crowd, cringe factor magnified by each decade you stay in the game. Gallon drink bottles, stringers, grunting while using the calf press machine as a leg Press. Duffle bag with pre workout that they mix at the drinking fountain.

That **** was awesome when we were young but it's time to grow up boyos.

Lift to have a desirable body crew. Lol at musclemaxxers and bloatmaxxers.

Reminder that Daniel Craig with 6 months of lifting had bishes gushing like the fukn Brazilian rainforest was between their legs. Any more and you're lifting for compliments from other men.

I just got chalk cause I can't go 5x5 on 285 DL without it and our gym took away the chalk cause covid

Does my grip strength just suck? should I jerk off more? should I be able to hold onto the bar through sweaty palms at 315? will I look like a retard using lifting straps deadlifting 285?

It takes a long time for a person with an average body to develop a Daniel Craig cut physique. A year of consistent training at least and good diet.

Lifting only barely helps with having a "desirable" body considering a desirable body to a woman is 90% be hung, 10% don't he ugly or fat. That's pmuch it for pussy gushing. Sorry.
