## About Powerlifting: Building Raw Strength

Most people worry about how much weight they can throw on the bar, but the real progress happens when you fix your bracing and bar path. Before you chase a PR, you need to understand your own biomechanics. In my 1-on-1 sessions, we spend the time breaking down the lift—whether it's knee caving or elbow turnover—so you aren't just moving weight, you're moving it safely.

Powerlifting isn't just about the heavy lift; it's about the technical integrity behind every rep. Whether I’m coaching for a WPC India competition or helping a beginner hit their first 100kg deadlift, my approach remains the same: mastering the high-bar ATG squat, the paused bench, and consistent deadlift variations.

### Online vs. In-Person
For online clients, we use periodized cycles (Hypertrophy, Strength, or Peaking) adjusted for your specific gym setup. I don't give generic PDFs. Your nutrition strategy focuses on standard Indian kitchen staples—ghee, roti, rice, dal—so you don't need a pantry full of exotic supplements. We track everything via Google Sheets or Fittr, with weekly adjustments based on how your body is responding to the volume.

### The In-Person Edge
If you're near Indirapuram or Noida, we work out of ZeroDope. These sessions are about real-time cueing. If your knees are caving or your bracing is loose, I catch it immediately. We segment complex movements into specific drills, using video feedback so you can see exactly where the breakdown happens. Safety is the priority; I'm there to spot your max-effort attempts so you can push your limits without fear. Strength is a long game—let’s build it right.
