I personally would not compare the strength of these two strength athletes, as I find it incomparable. As a former gymnast back in 1972 (from age 7 to 12) before I took up Olympic weightlifting at the age of 15, the key to my strength increases came through the decrease of my bodyweight leverage. In other words, gymnasts decrease leverage to increase strength. Strength through lifting weights comes through increasing the weight and / or other factors such as reps and sets that relay to the intensity of the overall lift. A totally different approach to strength gaining which I do not find to be comparable in the scenario presented here by "strength wars". My two cents

Here's an elbow lever :

And here's a supported planche (using the bench as an added leverage to make it a bit easier) :

And here's the planche whilst taking away that leverage (decreasing it if you will):

Anyone notice the "Bodybuilder" dude was wearing a Rich Piana 5% wrist band. Other dude wins by default!

Would anyone who wasn't geared wear a Rich Piana 5% wrist band???




PowerBuilder: too smart to fuck up their body with constant 1RMs. Not so vain that they train for aesthetics!

Once he gets his noggin shaved, grows a ridiculous beard and a huge gut, then he can call himself a PL

Study finds Powerlifters have a lower average I.Q. than Bodybuilders.

I've never understood how this became to become the meme of powerlifting, I haven't seen many powerlifters who are fatter, have longer beards or shaved heads than myself.
