 Member 194, 3976 posts | Is a moot argument in my opinion. Powerlifters have the best static strength (by bodyweight) and probably the most actual strength Weightlifters have awesome technical ability and explosive power generation Strongmen usually do not excel in either of the the above as much (of course there will be exceptions) - there is a saying that alot of strongmen are failed powerlifters (this is where the crowd come out running with the blah blah blah arugments). They fall somewhere inbetween the two imo. As far as the general public are concerned strongman is the most entertaining, but for me I like to watch weightlifting the most. To sum up, none of the sports are kind, they all have thier place. Anyone else want to join me on this big fence lol | ||

 a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | kev said: i have to disagree. weightlifting is very technical yes but ppl are quick to right off our feats of strength as purely technical rather than a strong mother f**ker. ive grown up with ppl saying 'weightlifting is all technique'. it just isnt. I'm with you Kev. The 'weightlifting is all technique' bollox is played all too often. Suley didnt stand up with three times his bodyweight across his throat and then bang it overhead with just technique, he was one strong f**ker!!!! | ||
