It's kind of a tough question to answer because each sport is too specific. If a strongman were to do oly or vice versa, the oly lifter would probably have an easier time, but that's generally because of the technique involved. Overall probably strongman because of weight advantage, as opposed to oly focusing on strength to weight ratio.
Calisthenics reigns supreme
Professional coper
it's almost like everyone trains hyper specific and by result isn't better than others who train in other hyper specific ways
Calisthenics are most dyel.
People who perform feats of strength, and who are far larger, are absolutely 'stronger' than people who perform feats of strength with strong elements of power and skill as well
If by weight lifters you mean powerlifters, then the strongmen. Powerliftering is usually a beginners stage for strongmen.
do 100 push-ups with military form
That pull isn't even that impressive. The bar moves like 2 inches. Thor is attempting a 501kg full pull
Bench 2x your bodyweight. The argument works both ways
bench press 225 100 times
ez
That's retarded. Most powerlifters can squat, bench and deadlift more than strongmen. Whoever trains for one event will be stronger in that event
Lol nigga WHAT. Strongmen are powerlifters that made it. "Powerlifters" are just fat guys trying to make themselves feel better about how fat they are while everyone else lols at them. You really didn't know that? Wowzaz
Literal nigger
whatever
run 2 miles sub 13 minutes
to all you "bodybuilders" (LOL) in this thread, try passing the marine or army PT test... good LUCK

Wrong, strongmen would lose a bench off to any powerlifter in the same weight class every single time.
Strongmen because they're allowed to take gear
Eddie Hall is a professional Strongman who currently holds the record for the deadlift which is about to attempt to be broken by another strongman lol.
>same weight class every single time
nobody cares about the twink classes in strongman, and both big z and hall have benched over 600. theres not that many powerlifters that bench over 600 raw in any weightclass. i know west side had a bunch over 600 at one point back in the heyday of multiply.
Record for bench press in the 198lb class is 608lbs

For the record, big Z benched over 600lb only in a suit
apft fuckboy
>strongman deadlift allows straps
>caring about a test so irrelevant, they completely redid it
>deadlifting in strongman is the same as deadlifting in powerlifting
>any powerlifter
you made a gross generalization. i know the records for high for specialists, but that is not the vast majority of powerlifters. take the all time total holders, and i think only wheels is over 6. Petras, Efferding., and Josh Morris are in the top 3s though.
Big Z says he hit 285.5kg raw in the gym when training for the log record, and id believe it. not a real comp, but thats all we can have after he left the ipf for strongman.
I don't see why somebodies's word is worth more than a competition lift. I mean even if they guy is a specialist he is literally half the weight of Z. Does that not put things into perspective?
I'd say basketball players are strongest.
