Yeh sirf photos nahi, saalon ki mehnat ka saboot hai. 350kg+ lifts aur National stage ka pressure. Dekho champion banne ke liye kya lagta hai.

Squatting at the 2024 National Senior Powerlifting Championship. There should be no compromise in depth.

A 345kg squat at the Delhi State Championship. Performing under the pressure of competition is the ultimate test.

Another angle of my 345kg squat at a competition. The energy of the platform is unmatched.

My opening lift of 350kg on the squat at the 2023 Senior Nationals in Kashipur.

A 375kg squat at the Senior National equipped powerlifting championship.

Another 375kg squat, this time at the Senior Delhi State Championship.

My opening lift of 250kg on the bench press at the Senior National powerlifting competition.

A 265kg equipped bench press. People who say the suit makes it easy have never been under this kind of weight.

A 252.5kg bench press at the Senior National championship, the highest in my weight category.

About Competition Day

Competition day par pressure handling alag cheez hoti hai. Training gym mein 300kg uthana aur stage par lights, referees, aur 350kg weight ke saath performance dena do alag duniya hain. Main sirf weight uthane ki nahi, stage par apne darr ko khatam karne ki training deta hu. Tumhari technique tabhi kaam aayegi jab dimaag shant rahega.

Platform Par Kya Chal Raha Hai

Ye images Lal Bahadur Indoor Stadium se leke Bhilai ke National stage tak ki hain. Jab main 390kg squat karta hu ya 350kg deadlift pull karta hu, toh wo sirf ek number nahi hai. Wo meri technique, mere coach ki guidance, aur mere diet ka result hai.

Why Competition Day is Different

  • Squat Depth: Bahut log gym mein half-squat karke hero bante hain. Platform par depth miss ki toh lift fail. Main depth par compromise nahi karta.
  • Equipped vs Raw: Log bolte hain suit se weight easy ho jata hai. Unse bolo ek baar 300kg pe suit pehen ke uth ke dikhayein. It requires different bracing and setup.
  • Peak Training: Competition se pehle ka 4-week cycle sabse critical hai. Yahan strength nahi, sirf recovery aur mental focus matter karta hai.

What I Train My Athletes For

Mere paas wo log aate hain jo time pass nahi karna chahte. Agar tumhari aankhon mein champion banne ka madness hai, toh hum kaam karenge. Main tumhe wahi techniques sikhaunga jo maine Senior National Championships mein use ki hain—chahe wo bench press setup ho ya deadlift lockout.

Real Talk

Competition prep ke liye aao toh serious rehna. Mere paas faltu ke excuses ke liye time nahi hai. Sirf hard work aur technique par focus hoga. Jai Shree Ram.
