The Power Rack is your best friend!

What I love about powerlifting is the absolute simplicity of the sport. Bar, plates and effort, is all that is required. In fact I love that I can head into the gym get into a power rack and not need to leave until my routine is done.

You could say a power rack is the strength athletes best friend, however there are sacred rules that must be adhered to:

1. When training alone always squat and bench in the cage with safety bars in place. If you don't know why google gym accidents!
2. Under no circumstance barbell curl in the rack. If you do it is immediate grounds for an ass kicking and revocation of your powerlifting status
3. Don't use the best competition bar in the gym for your shitty rack deadlifts, if your going to bang bars into the safety racks use one of those old beat up bars in the corner
4. No mirrors behind the rack!!

Stay Strong
