Powerlifting answers, grounded in evidence.
An AI coach for the platform. Ask about technique, programming, and meet prep — answered from the published work of coaches lifters actually trust, and from millions of real competition results.
3M+ meet results · 15 named knowledge sources · built only for powerlifting
Hips rising faster than the bar usually means your quads give out first, shifting the load to your hips and back. Three fixes worth trying:
- Pause squats at your sticking depth to build leg drive.
- Slow eccentrics around 70% to own the bottom position.
- Check your brace — losing upper-back tightness lets the bar drift forward.
One coach, three jobs
Everything runs through the same runtime: your question is planned, the right knowledge and data are retrieved, and the answer is checked before it reaches you.
