Yeah Svickas does look completely different. Crazy how all that extra weight changes how your face looks so drastically. I remember watching Marius compete when I was young and always wondered why he looked so different from everyone else. lol. Thor is super impressive to me. Damn near 7 ft tall and 400 pounds with a six pack. Epitome of a viking, imagine a couple dozen dudes like him jumping off a boat and raiding your town. lol

A buddy and I were literally just talking about this the other day. How we noticed a huge trend in the real big strongmen and powerlifters are getting a lot leaner. Larry Wheels was one of the ones we really zoned in on. He's got a BB show soon and he's still able to squat 900, and almost deadlift 922 (couldn't lock out).

Larry Wheels is sick man. Freaky strong and is lean as fuck. I think he’s a better power lifter then BB but it’s impressive how he can cross between both and be competitive

I agree. He's a lot stronger suited as a powerlifter, but his bodybuilding physique is nothing short of incredible.

Marius pudzianoski

Derek poundstone
Throw up some pics of strongmen u guys like!
These guys could arguably do a bodybuilding show and be rather successful.
Like we were discussing earlier man, I don’t understand the logic of fat equating to strength. It’s pretty contradicting. In sports it was always bigger, stronger, faster.. no fatter lol. And the guys like Thor & Eddie who have ‘leaned’ down even say how much better they feel and they perform the same if not better being leaner.

I saw him in a fight earlier this year, he lost a lot of weight. Still looks good but nothing like his prime. Seems like he was over 300 pounds and shredded at one point. He's 40 something now too.

Juji is a gymnast right? He's super strong though
Every gymnast I know is super shredded too. They're all quite strong as well, not exactly powerlifter strong, but still.
