Real weight and WWW weight

I'm going to get flamed all to hell on this post. I'm new here and don't want to start alot of crap but I find that some info on here is such b.s. it helps no one at all except for making the one posting it feel good about them self. I'm not here to make friends and I won't be posting here much at all in the future but I just wanted to bring some of the ego's back to earth. Here are the results from some of the lifts at the Arnold Classic from this year. If some people on here can really do what they say they need to get there ass's signed up and start competing becasue what some people say they can do would blow the winners away at a national competion such as the Arnold Classic. So either start posting real weight amounts or start competing cause if some one does some research on the net they'll see that some people on here are full of shit.

I assume we're reading different forums because I don't see anyone claiming 380kg benches here.

But check the PL forum, some of the people there actually competed in those contests.

Are the numbers for the individual lifts in kilos or lbs?

sidney61199,
I don't see anyone that keeps a journal here posting high numbers lying about their lifts. Most of them post vids etc.

I sense that you are a little jealous of some people on here that are seriously strong. So instead of congratulating them and giving them props for all their hard work, you try and discredit them... lame.
 
Here's a online coversion calculator for you http://www.onlineconversion.com/weight_common.htm
both charts are in pounds except where noted. For example the first chart the 148lbs woman did not bench 391lbs so you can safely assume everything in that row is in lbs. The second chart the 275lb guy did not squat 1118lbs so you can assume everthing in that row is in pounds also.

So now that who is confused is cleared up here is the post that got under my skin the most. http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=473515&page=1 go down through the pages and check the weight people say they lift. No offense to anyone but the first two replies alone would have won the whole thing in the second chart under the heavy weight division. Also they would have won it hands down while making the others look just plain stupid. I think we all should check and revize our weights we are listing. Sorry for the pissy adititude just can't belive what some are listing for weight lifted and then trying to tell me I got KG and Lbs mixed up.

I ahve no reason to doubt either of the fist 2 people to post in that thread.

The first person Guinness5.0 has posted vids of him squatting 315 for 20 reps! Please try and tell me that dude is not a strong ass MOFO.

If you don't want to believe there are other people in this world that are strong, other then the people you see on TV that's fine. But don't come on here calling BS on people you know nothing about.

Like I said, you sound Jealous.
 
I was just waiting for this idiot to something flame-able...

Thank GOD you won't be posting here anymore. You won't be missed. Your posts are all stream-of-conciousness, useless drivel anyway. Calling people out in such a roundabout way as you have in this thread is pretty lame. BUST SOMEONE OUT OR SHUT THE FUCK UP! Who do you think is lying?! Give a name or go away.

Obviously you're referring to me in there. Well guess what genius - the weights in the Arnold link are in KILOS!! That's 2.2 pounds per kilo. So do the math - no one here is claiming to be even close to those numbers

Better yet, just go away.

If this is the "WPO World Record Bench Bash" then I doubt they'd feature 308 lb dudes with a measly 377 lb bench.
 
Sydney - look at the last column, you fucking idiot. It's the total in POUNDS. Now add up the individual lifts as listed for any of the competitors. Take that number, multiply it by 2.2, and you'll have a number that matches the total in pounds.

You're so ignorant about lifting that you don't even realize that the numbers listed in the post you called us out on are perfectly reasonable for intermediate/advanced trainees. Hell, Tweakle has VIDS of himself DL'ling 700+ (pounds, that is), among various other feats, B fold's got plenty of training vids, I have a couple (incluiding the aforementioned 20-repper, though it was 325, not 315 :D).

REALLY fucking stupid to call people liars without a shred of reason or proof - I hope for your sake you're not this dumb in 'real life'.

if you compare the lifts it's not like the guys that post here (the first two guys that posted) are beyond those guys. for example. compare biggt 240lb his lifts are impressive and close to a competitor on that list that is 240lb, and biggt squat is the only thing that is better. so how does this help your arguement???

the sad thing is, this is the only part of EF where people post their actual numbers. everyone in C&C would be benching 800 if they could just find the time to get to the gym, all the roid forumer's have 19" arms at under 200lbs and gain 25lbs everytime they do a tbol cycle, the mens pics forum.. well, you get the idea.

Sydney, you are a dork.

oops, sorry about that mister, please don't smash me into the ground now, lol

I knew it was weight that I'd serously be happy to be able to lift for even one rep in my lifetime.
 
Sounds like this sidney, has a very strange kind of jealousy going on, either that or he is confused.
Here is a post he made in the "For you over 250 lbs" thread.

sidney61199 said:
No offense to anyone but I'm a little guy (5'10", 205lbs) so the weight lifted should be looked at as a percentage of the individuals body weight. I am much more impressed when a guy my size reps out 325 with perfect form than when a hoss (fat or just big) gets on the bench and see's how high he can bounce 350 or so off his chest. Alot of people watch in amazement at this feat of strength but I watch just to see if there chest cavity will collapse. Just thought I'd give a view point from a little mans eyes.

The jig is up....

Alright guys, I went on the website for the Arnold and looked at the #'s for the guys who were my size, and being that my IQ is really low, I forgot to multiply by 2.2 and I assumed that the lifts were in lbs, so then I posted them as my PR's to look cool on a website.....

Sidney, ya got me. I hope you stick around though, man, all of your posts have been intelligent, well-worded, and helpful.
 
Guiness, we should go to the Arnold next year, I think we'd qualify in the 275's, just so long as they let us give our #'s in lbs while the other guys have to divide by 2.2.....hell, if Sidney was the judge, people would speak of me in the same breath as Ed Coan and Kaz.....Sidney, why can't all of powerlifting be as stupid as you?, I'd be a legend.
 
I guess it's a testament as to just how strong the world's best powerlifters are - the guy was so certain that no one would be able to squat over one thousand pounds that he didn't bother to look twice at his own link before calling us liars.

This is one of the funniest 'pwnage' posts I've been a part of. It's not every day someone calls you a liar and you can prove beyond a doubt that you aren't lying, then immediatley show your accuser that they are a complete moron :D
 
if posting somthing makes one feel good then im all for it post that shit up i like to hear how stong yall are getting, and this is a steroid forum people on here lift big weights. thats a no brainer
 
The cool thing about this place is that it's not about egos (at least not entirely :D). Most of the bigger/stronger guys here take a 'mentor' type of approach rather than a condescending approach.

To call good, helpful people liars is beyond offensive in my eyes.
 
lol, ya can't even get mad at the guy because he is so stupid, he figured there was no way a 275lb WPO-caliber lifter could ever squat 1100lbs.
 
Someone needs to tell Mike Miller to quit making shit up about squatting 1200, at least pick a believeable number if you're going to post it on EF.

Red donations welcome
 
I was a little surprised to see some powerlifting totals done in the U.S. in kg!

Thought this was just the norm everywhere else in the world :p.
 
So much hate in this thread, and I missed it!?

Fuck you. All of you.

As demonstrated in Guinness's I think I may have found... thread, clearly showing Guinness and biggt (the two people singled out by Sidney) trying to help a kid out who clearly doesn't have a clue. Props to you guys.

Sidney, I think the word you're looking for is 'sorry', since you clearly made a mistake mixing lbs and kgs.
 
this is kind of a funny thread. i guess it shows how different peoples perspectives are. one upon a time when i was sort of a strong guy, i had done true OL style squats of 500x20reps and 605x10 reps, bar high on my back, way below parrallel, and not even wearing a belt. when i was in columbus at westside i was talking to louie about that, actually was quite proud of it... louie was totally indifferent and basically said it didnt matter a bit to him what someone could do with light weights like 500 or 600lbs, to know if you were strong or not hed have to see what you could do with a heavy weight!

on the other hand, you put something like that on some forums, and a bunch of guys are going to look at it as so incredible as to not believe it at all.

i guess when you train with guys like chuck v. every day, you dont impress easily, but when you train at the local golds and see guys puffing their chests out because they can take 315 halfway down for a few reps, anything really strong does seem unbelievable.

Alright, that sounds EXACTLY like my gym here in CS. Time to move to Wichita!. I would agree its all a matter of perspective though. Think when you first started, I was so proud to get 1 of the big plates on either side. Now its hardly a warmup.
 
Sidney...step away from the computer and get yourself under some heavy weight...

Don't be a wanker and criticize someone else's hardwork...

I am shocked you havent gotten bombed yet...
 
Aight...he has just jumped two other threads with unnecessary BS

that is not true, Kara did bench that much in pounds and it was a world record.
 
Damn... Threads like these make me want to laugh and cry...

Laugh because I'm always amazed by the level of idiocy of some people....

Cry because it'll be a few years until I can bench more than that 148lb girl :(
 
This whole thread is really useless. Whether or not people exaggerate on the Internet about the weights they lift is not really important. This site is really here to share information about training, techniques, etc. If anyone is on here to brag about what they lift or if you are on here to criticize people how much they lift in their posts, then you simply are missing the point of this site.
 
Now for the good news, Sidney. If you can put your ego aside and listen to some of the guys you're currently calling out; try to learn their work ethic and then attempt to emulate it under some stressful weights and get yourself a decent diet, you could be the one being called out for being unfeasibly strong in a few years.
