[freqeist]

why such a wide stance?

[ElPorteroBestia]

@freqeist Decreases the range of motion she has to go, optimizes her set up and squatting muscles, form, etc. Most people from Westside have this stance, it's the way to go if your ligaments and flexibility allow you to do it.

Plus, she's just a beast. haha

[Hulk83]

She probably couldn't total 1000 raw...

[ElPorteroBestia]

You're right... she's only benched 315 for 2 and she can pull 500 raw. Guess she couldn't squat 200 raw then, right? Wow, what a pair of briefs and a suit...

Fuck yourself.

[cyberkai99]

Well away from all the talk of martial arts. Has anybody ever seen a woman that can bench press 300 pounds, let alone 500 pounds, and still be as beautiful as Laura?

[ElPorteroBestia]

Uhh, that would be a negative. :)

[Joohris]

Haha lol check the guy at 2:53 asking for a fist bump getting owned :D

[MonsterNRG32]

powerlifting has turned into a technique sport ...stupid bench shirt wuldnt let 400 sum pounds go down all the way so she had to adjust....

[MonsterNRG32]

if her butt was on the bench and she didnt have the bench shirt it her bench wuld be cut in half atleast...u might as well hav a pulley system to pull 200 lbs up for u on the bottom part of the lift....every lifter says it protects ur shoulders...well they need to make something that does that but doesn't double ur bench...the raw world record max is 715...but with a bench shirt its 1075...its called bullshit for people that wana pretend hey can bench more

[anuran2010]

you know WHY powelifting isn't an olympic sport???

because it has this stupid shirts and all equipped stuff and ton of idiotic techniques..that bends the back like a snake...what a STUPID sport....only thing good about it is the raw one with straight backs and all.

[sdfefde]

her depth is fucking horrible , equipped powerlifting is a joke

[dan7edan7e]

@ElPorteroBestia With all due respect for the passion she puts into her work and the results she has achieved.... We have different definitions of beautiful.

@cyberkai99 Laura is hot but dont forget she wears special gear to help her, this ego boosting stuff is ruining powerlifting

[morry271]

@TaTenThinh Well said, I have noticed a lot of Westsiders dont go low enough on the squat

, what federation do they lift under, surely not the IPF

[TaTenThinh]

Her squat is not even parallel yet. The IPF wants you to go slightly below parallel for a full squat. Her bench press and deadlift are perfect though. Strong woman.

[zerk54]

@freqeist Because her clit is swollen to the size of a summer sausage.

[TaTenThinh]

@5x5lifter I totally agree. Her bench presses and deadlifts are both correct and impressive. She did it full range according to the IPF rules. However her squats are an inch or two high and not correct. If she did a full squat according to the IPF rules, she'd probably only get 500+ lbs.
