9x WSM finalist! Member 662, 3372 posts | ChrisMcCarthy said:I think the condition Pudz kept himself in was as much to do with potential sponsors as the shape he 'needed' to be in contest wise. Mariusz made no conscious effort to look the way he did, nor did he stick to a strict diet. You're right though, he was a dream for metrx! Winning the comp they sponsor and looking the way he did. | ||

not stating facts. Member 3100, 502 posts | terryhollands said: Mariusz made no conscious effort to look the way he did, nor did he stick to a strict diet. You're right though, he was a dream for metrx! Winning the comp they sponsor and looking the way he did. How did he look so ripped then? Genetics or was it the extreme stuff he was doing? Or both? He was very close to beating z in 2009 as well when recovering from a bicep injury. So if he'd have carry on I think he would've still been challenging for top spot. Very good events for him in this year's final as well actually. | ||

I am guessing you got that info straight from the horse's mouth and I too have heard the stories of the s**t he used to eat but I strongly suspect a degree of disingenuity from Pudzianowski in this respect. Horrible of me, I know. | ||

Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22063 posts | I think Pudz quit at the right time. I think he would have started to drop off the pace if he'd continued. | ||

Very good events for him in this year's final as well actually. I think for the most part genetics. His dad was like a mini version of him and his brothers were also very muscular and super lean. I once travelled with him from Newark airport to mohegan sun (about a 3 hour drive) he had McDonald's at the airport then twice again on the journey he had McDonald's and when we arrived he went straight in for pizza. That was not unusual for him to eat like that | ||

He must have been consuming ridiculous calories eating like that | ||

Squatting isn't doing my back any good. Member 5108, 869 posts SQ 170, BP 125, DL 210505.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | 93hopkinsonr said: What were his PBS, did he ever say.

I can believe the 290 bench, but I imagine the likes of Terry and other strongman would be more able to sady whether its's really likely. I could definitely imagine glenn toss benching close to that, (but that's totalny irrelevant). | ||

what is everyone's fran time? Member 3986, 10449 posts SQ 340, BP 200, DL 400940.0 kgs @ 129kgs Eq | 290 is a massive bench I just can't see Pudz doing it | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5207 posts | I read he used to do work sets of 220 for reps of 2. I reckon he could maybe of pressed 240-250. Definitely not 290. | ||

Ed Hall 260x2 is probably 270-275 . Zydrunas never heard of him benching heavy , only close grip . I dont think he does bench press actually . Only a video from 2011 he benched 250 with arched back. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaIABTudX9U | ||
