For instance, he is crazy strong at doing an alternating curl and press with a pair of dumbbells. I do overhead holds for time. Two different types of lifts.

I think the reason most people get interested in powerlifting is because they like to be big and strong and generally not look like shit.

If you missed because your quads are weak, get bigger/stronger quads. <br /><br />You need to train the movement, but you need to fucking build stronger muscles too.
