Awesome, there’s a few people here that are at least posting about training.
Last heavy week is 205 sq, 142.5 bn, 270 dl. We’ll see how it comes together for the day, but slightly more than those hopefully
Good luck for your competition mate. What numbers are you aiming for?
Unfortunately there are not a lot of lifters on Nostr yet. nostr:nprofile1qqsxl84x2fmauvmttxtrdc4sa6w6qm34t6t65mzcfvqplntn9waln3cppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnzd96xxmmfdejhytnnda3kjctv9u4gh2ca is the only one I know who regularly posts videos of his lifts. nostr:nprofile1qqs9et2kzdgfhqpywm8hfpl87hshxcnek3uxk3ecrjny93l2flgl3pspz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzxrhwden5te0d35kw6r5de5kuemjv4kxz7fwvdhk6eegu96 used to post a lot, but she is less active now. There are a few other npubs who write a lot about lifting but rarely post actual gym footage nostr:nprofile1qqsg58qf64jqsl3kxy8zk9g5ly69kg58yk4rq0rf9fpeuzykcxk362qpz3mhxw309ucnydewxqhrqt338g6rsd3e9uq3vamnwvaz7tmwdaehgun9d35hgetn9ehhyee0mh70t0 nostr:nprofile1qqs2p23f2lnpnf6n5t2q2qls3u4x2h50rvxnmnjj7697j7p4l2f9p7cpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmqyhuj08. nostr:nprofile1qqs9uavu9jj2fc3zhfa038n07v27r5ncg0lgh59rulnpuja9k8q8xfspz4mhxue69uhkyetkduhxummnw3erztnrdakszxmhwden5te0vf6kx6m9wshxxmmjv93kcefwwdhkx6tpdsq2s33e sometimes posts his home workouts, but also a lot of other stuff.

That’s awesome. I don’t do “body building” or weightlifting competitions myself. My training is all functional fitness for the military or martial arts.
I think my best deadlift ever was around 420lbs. But my average max is more in the 380 range, with reps more in the 320s.
Still decent lifts, Strength is all relative. I have my biases obviously, but training is best when you find the modality you enjoy the most
It’s also about goals.
If you’re training to run a marathon, maybe you shouldn’t be putting so much reps into deadlifts and… RUN, instead. lol. I wouldn’t boast my deadlift max at a ping pong tournament or a mud run either if it meant that I sacrificed my agility for that deadlift.
Everything is relative to purpose.
Nice
