Sultan Abdulhameed II for power lifters, to decrease the rage of motion which allows you to lift more weights

Sultan Abdulhameed II General reason for arching the back is to give the space for the scapula to contract during benching

@Sultan Abdulhameed II arnold did it for hypertrophy

@Sultan Abdulhameed II ignorant question: did Arnold won any powerlifting tournament? Or competed at least?

@@junseopark9774 Agreed. This is the reason. The one time i trained with a coach who actually knew the science behind the workout, he suggested me to do it this way. I guess it also helps the powerlifters to make it shorter and easier, so they can lift more (same with powerlifting squats).

It's to the judges

He is bowing to the weight itself

I don’t like.

@@mr.wahlter7877 and to the spotters

That’s Jpn style . They are fake people are

LOL

It's for one rep maxes that's all that matters more reps aren't apart of the contest.

😂😂👏🏻👏🏻

😂😂

This deserves more likes.

Sphane lmao

Me too... we have a bench in the garden and I press it! 😉

The bench is lava

He's like a jack in the box..

😂😂😂you got me 😂😂

deadass 🤣🤣🤣👌

Haha

Dang racist fuck

Jiu Jitsu Dweeb never so stfu

@Jiu Jitsu Dweeb Oh so racism justifies racism?

Maybe hes actually swole... you wouldn't get it

Lmfao twist wtf r u doing here

May b coz his thigh is way too big and may rub against each other if he walks normal, (mostly obese will have to face it)

He is from a ninja family

he is probably nervous

+1, deadlifting 4 x his bodyweight

It isn't just the arch its the ROM (range of motion) no matter how many times you look at it he barely even moves the weight a few inches. To refer back to your example, this is less like a long jumper taking a running start and more like the long jumper going off a trampoline.

@@adityaaurora9869 trampolines aren’t allowed lol

@@adityaaurora9869 Yeah but unless it is against the rules, you are taking every advantage you can get. Of course it is optimal to decrease the range of motion as much as legally possible for a powerlifter in competition.

@@CanariasCanariass not saying he didn't have the right to do it, but for such a large competition to consider that a legitimate lift when all he's doing is moving weight an inch or 2 just means that the rules need to change.

No, you are lying.

Just how is that lift legal

@@richardmell299 like u go down 5cm and you did a whole rep. And it couunts like wtf. He went down so little

@@kristijansusnik1297 He's like 20cm tall though. Proportions bruh.

These powerlifting rules are pathetic/ he didn’t even get 90 degree bend in his elbows on bench lol. How is that a clean Lift

The rules need to be changed or else the competitors will do whatever they can

Oh no maybe his 50% power from another dimension

Jkjk

Jkkkjkkjjkj

For real.

yeah that’s foul, not a bench press @ all, more like a rotator cuff press

My dad always taught me that if your ass leaves the bench it doesn't count as a rep

@@tom__cav3908 Exactly. That's why he always has his ass on the bench while lifting.

Bro the movement is like 4 inches into his stomach. I can’t believe that’s acceptable

that really wasn’t too much weight?

@@karinacabrera8800 If you convert 59kg class to weight it would only be 130 pounds. Someone who is lightweight that pulled off 587.5kg and made it 3rd place, that's impressive. That is really heavy, try it and it takes a lot of training to adapt to. Most people talk down on this individual powerlifter, I bet they haven't even hit the gym yet. (not all but most); His form on bench press is questionable though. but he pulled this off professionally.

@@DJames-iy8jq His form isnt questionable. We should blame the sport for that. Since all athletes are allowed to bench like that you'd be at a huuuge disadvantage if you were to bench normally.

@@rinne-8810 I've seen this everywhere, I'd say it's on them because they're putting a lot of pressure in their lower back and spine. Like for example if you go to Korea or in some places they don't mine. In certain places it's not a good form, I can see were people were going with this.

@@karinacabrera8800 can you lift 587 kg ?

MrPatrick115 blame the rules, not the lifter. the lifter is being smart about it.

@Daniel also cause it's powerlifting

If eddie hall or any strong men can flex like that or do sumo lift their wr weight lift will double that by now. And. Every bench is different technic. But to me its. Not a proper way of benching for competitions. And beside back will have lots.of pain

That’s not benching. They are strict as hell on squats and deadlifts but bench press they can move the bar 2” down and 2” up and that counts as a rep...change the rules because that’s not a rep.

Fast_GT500&Nova_SS I'd say make it so that the arms have to be parellel with the shoulders. It allows for width and an arch, while also being reasonable bc that style of benching is gay as fuck

The point is to lift as much weight as possible. Benching w that arch allows them to lift as much as possible

@@GhassanLifts the range of motion is fucking shit dude. If he actually moved the bar more than 3 inches he wouldn't be able to get that.

@@lmaolmoo4147 that's the whole point of powerlifting, move massive weights with the least effort😂

@FMC Kronos no there aren't. Some people do want the rules for grip width to change. Considering even the 59kg lifters use maximum legal grip width. If weight class dictated max grip width it would be better. The smaller guys would have more range of motion than this.

It ruins this sport for me

Making all kinds of rib cage gains

@@ganza5955 oh wow short penis joke, so cool.

@@howaboutthis9233 some losers gotta put people down to feel better.....it's sad.

@@dohalimilqarasdeldemenanci8483 now you are a religion i can get behind

If you blind

Like his little pp

Its called rib press.. new rules I guess

demon shadow he bench pressed 302.5 lbs lol. The red plates are 25 kg or 55 lbs and the collars on each end are like 5 lbs each. That’s impressive even with that big arch for a tiny ass guy like him. Dude doesn’t even weigh 130 lbs. Lastly it seems y’all don’t understand the purpose of an arch. Arching can help avoid shoulder injuries and allows you to stay more planted on the bench and use more leg drive. Do some guys overdo it? Yes but I don’t think it should invalidate the sport. Plus plenty of lifters like Russel Orhii or any of the heavier guys don’t even arch that much. It only looks worse for lighter guys because of their smaller frame.

@@skrubalicious5167 Because heavier guys are actually strong. I am familiar with reasons on why to arch, not sure why heavier guys like Julius Maddox or Kirill Sarychev don't use such an extreme arch, perhaps bcs of their lack of mobility but their benches look much more impressive. That's why it is 10x more entertaining to watch strongman competitions like Arnold or WSM then any powerlifting competition. People are abusing powerlifting rules. Bench rom getting shorter and shorter, shorter pauses in some federations as well, bad judging, inappropriate depths on the squat, for the most part, and the sumo ... Just a joke man. I train bench, squat and deadlift in the gym for the most part but I don't pay any attention to powerlifting sport.

Mr. T I disagree with your statement about strongman being more entertaining than powerlifting to an extent because it’s all down to personal preference, and about your statement on sumo since I know both light and heavy dudes who’ve trained sumo for years and are still stronger conventional. Powerlifting has barely been getting a lot of attention and is a relatively new sport so bad judging and questionable ROM will get better in the future. Plus the IPF has been finding ways to make the bench rom shorter. That’s why this federation doesn’t allow you to lift your head and forces you to have your whole foot on the platform. If you actually watch usapl nationals, you’ll see that most lifters don’t arch a crazy amount, have deep squats, and not all pullers use sumo. I do respect your opinion though and maybe powerlifting just isn’t your cup of tea but I wouldn’t go as far as saying the entire sport is a joke because there are lifters with a big arch and deadlift sumo.

@@skrubalicious5167 It''s completely safe to bench without an arch. I bet he can't even bench 90kg without an arch and at full ROM. All that talk about shoulder safety is just an excuse to half rep and get bigger numbers.

Kevin JWK I never said it wasn’t safe to bench without an arch lol I just said it helps reduce the risk of shoulder injury. Lastly, arching and shortening the rom doesn’t add a whole 50 kg like you seem to think. He probably can bench over 100 kg and in any sport, athletes are going to find any little trick or loophole in the rules that will allow them a competitive edge and it’s the same in powerlifting. With all that said, I also don’t like the way that huge arches look and would rather see a normal arch with a bit of a closer grip but I wouldn’t discredit any lifter or an entire sport for their lifts if it’s in compliance with the rules.

I was wondering the same thing.

Are you new to powe lifting rules ?

@@nikolaiownz Are you actually interested in knowing, or did you ask because you wanted to feel superior?

Yeah wtf is this shit Jesus lol is this allowed in all power lifting comps or only some? I don't see a lot of people arching this much

@@50shekels this is not an illegal lift.. I know it's silly but don't hate the player Hate the game. It's commonly used in power lifting in lower weight classes. Everyone knows that 🙄

大和魂かな？

Lmfaoooo

Yeah I don’t think you needed to tell us you were kidding

@@WesleyB-Rook theres always that one guy who gets offended

😂😂😂

@@osprey5611 yeah but they often get offended anyways

budro thats the cool thing about powerlifting

@@jakubvydra9412 depends on your perception of 'cool'

budro yeah i would probably say weird instead of cool

i must say tho, he’s got some nice ass legs. like seriously just watch his quads when he’s getting ready for his dl.

I thinks you would recognize his big quads if he would were jeans

Ronnie Coleman approves.

cuz his form is retarded

Most are hating on the rules for allowing that bench not the person himself.

Internet jelausy. Everybody is "bitch", even if they break records.

David V imagine not knowing how to spell jealousy.

Its all because of cat sweet sour

Ur being generous... yep, its preposterous ... they need to change the rules.. frikin cinch them down on the bench with a lifting belt...

Not even that. 3 inches at max

That's the point it move weight not go for reps it's a one rep max not bodybuilding.

@@hainleysimpson1507 lacking on the moving though

@@grambotennis1991 True.

ほんとにパワリフ好きなんですね

Hahahahaha

You are correct, you better sign up before they change the rules.

Please send video.

If my freind benched like power lifters do I'd beat them up after the set

His squat was fine. The bench is ridiculous though.

Believe it or not, there are plenty of people who don't like either of those two evils.

I think squats ought to be ass to grass with a pause

Erik Van der Zee im confused, the standard for squat is not at 90 degrees?

@@alexrobles9708 i was making a joke that everyone should have to squat like Clarence Kennedy. Way lower than 90 degrees and he pauses at the bottom. 'Clarence Kennedy 306kg ATG Pause Squat'

자기 체중의 몇배를...

@@tGGgGg-sp9yx In this case, does his size co relate with his strength?

@@shivasrinivasan80 theres multiple types of strength is what he means. He has weight lifting strength

@@shivasrinivasan80 they correlate heavily but he may have hit his very shallow genetic limit for hypertrophy

What are you people talking about he's weak if he doesn't exploit every way possible he would not bench 225 the only lift he's even ok at his sumo deadlift and that's because he's so short

What’s wrong with shouting ? .. this shit is intense!

made my dayXDDD

Sub to me for a Blowjob your weight compared to your lifts, they normally have weight categories, but not sure what they are

The contestants are separated into weight classes and age

I don't arch at all because I want to get the maximum potential out of my workouts.

And I bench with my legs slighly up in the air so my core gets strengthened too
