Olympic Squats vs Powerlifting Squats

Olympic Squats vs Powerlifting Squats

[stamatisvragas]

For those that dont have trained eyes, the olympic squats on this video are slightly lower than the powerlifting squats

The 775 sumo deadlift with the bar on the back is hilarious.

As a former competitive power lifter, I would red light these power lifters as they did not break parallel like you need to for a legal lift. The Olympic lifters looked incredible.

[jo-jlrm]

What's the difference, you may ask?

One did a squat, the other one unracked it.

[RichardWilliamDamien]

For what I see :
Olympic lift, most of the weight is on the bar
Powerlifting, most of the weight is on the belly

Those olympic lifters probably got salmonella for lifting so raw and low

[WillSlags]

I’m going out on a limb and saying this channel prefers weightlifting

[gzik]

that part at around 1:45 with Pyrros... it still gets me really emotional. it was his last olympics and last professional performance, where he got bronze medal and then the audience gave him a standing ovation for literally 15 minutes, halting the entire ceremony. magical moment

[mambutuomalley]

The funniest thing to me was how the Weightlifting squats were from training sessions while the Powerlifting squats were from competitions.

The patellar tendon strength between these two groups would be wild to study

Can someone make a 10-hour cut of classical music with high bar squat footage

[kkdb]

These "powerlifters"really making powerlifting look like a joke

[ezakustam]

This is nonsense. None of those powerlifting squats should have passed, even by their own rules. The first one is just an abomination. It's also well known how much the rules and judging vary between federations. This is essentially a non-issue within the IPF, for example.

[techyb]

That classical music fits perfectly with those perfect squats.

[rubinsaffy]

There's a beauty to a properly performed squat.

This video is the reason why Clarence squats at the back room of a church

[James-jcsd]

I do powerlifting in the gym. Bench, deadlift and Squat. I don’t do Olympic lifts, but I always squat Olympic style. Much more aesthetics to see, and proper Ass to Grass

"in equipped powerlifting, the only hand gesture that should accompany the squat command is air quotes" - infinite elgintensity

[josemontoya]

I low key listen to classical music while working out. It helps me stay focus with my form when doing an exercise.

Geared powerlifting is cancer. Raw is a million times better to watch.
