i have no knowledge about working out at all so genuine question, are you supposed to hold your breath during lifts like that? my intuition would have been breathing out when doing the actual lift

commented my shock on the youtube video before finding this thread, lol
Good job, lansky! I've recently started getting into shape (which is a bit cliche to do after quitting tf2), in part thinking about the impressive progress you've made since when I saw you at s15 lan talking to cs players about getting started lifting.
It's good to see you excelling in other things, even though we all miss in-game lansky.
ps am i going crazy or was there a vlog of olden-days tf2 nerds walking around a powerlifting competition just down the hall from lan? i have no idea which lan/year/players/anything.

Hey I talked to you and met Ryan at the gym. Glad to see you hit your reps.

No you're not, but he's not holding his breath. He's just red in the face cause the weight is heavy.

NEVER HOLD YOUR BREATH, if you hold your breath like that you could accidentally pass out or lose control/balance (which is something you dont want to do when lifting a heavy peice of metal). Here it was hard for lansky to breathe cause of how heavy the weight was, but it was only for a short time, but always try to breathe when you can.

This isn't true at all you goober. It's called the valsava maneuver and it's important for protecting your lumbar spine by increasing intrabdominal pressure. Many lifters hold their breath for entire sets of five.

Have to stop by again to say that Lansky has 300 hp now.

Whenever you CAN not all the time, i should have said that. Also this is more for endurance (10-20) reps rather than a few heavy reps, still make sure you take a good amount of breath before you do your reps.
Also it's not good to breathe too much and fast as you might accidentally hyperventilate while working out

Hey powerlifters in this thread: I started doing some bodyweight stuff when I was a teenager and my first year in college I've been lifting in a gym and trying to gain some weight
Right now I'm about 170 and although I don't really train for strength and have never really properly maxed, the heaviest I have lifted is 185 bench, 275 squat, and 365 deadlift
I have been thinking about focusing more on strength training next year and I'm wondering what your paths were for that. Did you join a club or a team? Did you have a friend who was more experienced to help you, or a friend you learned with? I have a buddy who is about as strong as me and we did track together in highschool and I was thinking about doing this with him. I don't really have the mental toughness to lift really heavy or stick to a plan without someone pushing me.
I probably won't do this seriously enough to compete but I'd like to get into the gym more than a few times a week and get more from it

Best thing you can do is join a good gym with like-minded (and strong) people. I'd highly reccomend signing up for a meet, even if you won't be super-competitive. Your numbers are in a good place and it'll give great structure to your training. You absolutely won't regret it, PL meets are full of wonderful people.
