Best training ideas for a powerlifter

[fulmer]

I'm looking to start powerlifting. I haven't been weightlifting in about a year and a half. I used to weight train pretty regularly but then my gym closed down and I just got lazy and didn't want to drive an extra 15 minutes to another gym.
What is a good strategy to start powerlifting? Should I stick to three or four compound lifts or should I try machine work?

Bros, when it comes to powerlifting, pick 5-6 of the Olympic-style lifts and go hit them hard -

Even though you are going more heavy, you never want to do one or two rep maxes. That will end up hurting you big time.

I'm a big fan of powerlifting. I've been doing it for many years. You should look up Ronnie Coleman and see his videos on how he lifts.

Powerlifting is the GOAT. I would stick to 5 rep ranges, maybe 4 at the least. That will be good and keep you safe.

Deadlifts, bench press, squats, pull-ups, dips - these are all good compound lifts that you can definitely make your bread and butter.

I would set up a training split, maybe push-pull-legs, and set up two or three good compound movements those days.
