RE: Powerlifting

in #fitness7 years ago

What is the functional benefit of Powerlifting though? Is the goal to end up looking like Brock Lesnar? Let's say you wanted to fight MMA for example. I don't think powerlifting would help you much.

Sort:  

thats a good point, but jon jones trained at a powerlifting gym in New Mexico and did some powerlifting during his suspension.

Wow. That might be a terrible sign for him on July 8 w/ Corm.

Powerlifting is not bodybuilding. The purpose is to not to get jacked. It's to get stronger. Let me give an example: There is this girl that weighs 123 pounds (Stephanie Cohen), she deadlifts more than 500 pounds. About the same as Jon Jones who weighs more than 240 pounds and is a male.
