Fuck the powerlifts!
You don’t have to lift a barbell, with full range of motion, or do anything you “have to” do to be big and strong.
Heavy is heavy, I’m relearning this making the smith machine work for me.
Snatch grip rack pulls from knee height, something resembling a high pull, pause squats from the bottom (even a bit higher than parallel).
Making it work for me.
You want to be big and strong, and you will be.
Every gym, even no gym, is good enough.
It’s in your efforts.
