Joe pitched this one from one of his followers: You can lift anyway you want, but you can’t compare your lifts to anyone else’s if they are not to the same standard.

Can you really compare lifts across federations or different equipment standards? Are squats with wraps comparable to squats with sleeves? Are deadlift bars and stiff bars THAT different in terms of weight lifted?

Joe Stanek (@joe_gameday) sat in as guest host on this one, along with Mike, Nico (@nicoflores83kg), and Elexa (@nanoo31).
