Why are all strongmen big fat dudes? Are weight classes just not a thing in the sport?
its the worlds strongest man, not strongest man in a weight class
>>74115237there are weightclasses but nobody cares about anything other than open
>>74115237Can't believe he got away with it...
>>74115282This.
>>74115237They are fat because it’s the ideal form for their sport. Bathing your muscles in nutrients and having sugar storage as full as possible at any time helps greatly with doing feasts of great strength
>>74115237Olympic lifters are cooler.
>>74115505>feasts of great strengthsounds like something out of kung fu panda
Mitchell Hooper, Mateusz Kieliskowski, Marius Pudzianowski, Jon Pal Sigmarsson, Halfthor Bjornson, Magnus Ver Magnusson, Bill KazmierThere are a lot of great strongmen that aren't big fat dudes.
Because the only things they've ever drug tested for are meth and coke.
>>74115641This. It's the same with powerlifting. But people will look for the fattest examples they can find in order to avoid lifting
>>74115237Weight classes are for oly sissies.
>>74115984How much could he Curl? His arms were massive and never tore a bicep
>>74116098No one knows. But it's probably really high. He was also a body builder before going into strongman.
>>74115486Got away with what? Qrd?
>>74116098probably a shitload, keeping in mind that atlas stones and similar movements have a pretty big biceps static hold component
>>74115563because kung fu panda is based on real life
>>74116199It was tragic
>>74116199He and Larry Wheels don’t collab anymore for a reason. Honestly what Brian did was crossing a line, even by this board’s standards. Eddie apparently thought it was hilarious though and often refers to him as ‘Buck Breaker Brian’
