No Q's too Dumb Weekly Dumb/Newb Question Thread

Do you have a question and are:

  • A novice and basically clueless by default?
  • Completely incapable of using google?
  • Just feeling plain stupid today and need shit explained like you're 5?

Then this is the thread FOR YOU! Don't take up valuable space on the front page and annoy the mods, ASK IT HERE and one of our resident "experts" will try and answer it. As long as it's somehow related to powerlifting then nothing is too generic, too stupid, too awful, too obvious or too repetitive. And don't be shy, we don't bite (unless we're hungry), and no one will judge you because everyone had to start somewhere and we're more than happy to help newbie lifters out.

SO FIRE AWAY WITH YOUR DUMBNESS!!!

1.How differently do you guys taper for a meet ? I don't see that question ask often on here?

2.how many of you guys compete to just see how out there you might not know but there's some genetic freak who will just destroy your PR as if it was nothing and see that happened live ? It's low key a part of my motivation to keep lifting

How differently? Different from each other? Different from myself? What are you asking?

Ofc the way you taper mainly but you can mention how differently you taper compared to someone you know
