Powerlifters are the strongest. Bodybuilders are weaklings and Olympic lifters are just mediocre

Of the three only the Olympic lifters could be considered real athletes. They are also the most powerful.

show me powerlifters squatting 300kg raw ATG around 80kg bodyweight. Or 360kg+ raw. every top oly lifter can do that.

you are delusional, top oly lifters are BEASTS. they are pro athletes after all. actually I think that strongman are stronger than powerlifters...

QFT, you forgot to add the power squat suit. Have you seen the 12" bench presses with the power suit with the crazy arch with a wide grip? Olympic lifters have speed, power, strength and are athletes. They have crazy vertical leaps and can post a great 40 time.

bodybuilders you idiot,look at their msucle,theyre huge.

seriously ,some exerises the bbuilders would win.

when it comes to say 10 reps of bbuilding specific movement with perfect rom and slow.

the fatso powerlifters would gass out the oplympians wouldnt be used to it.

and gayzeros mother is the fiercest lifter ok cock straight into her neck

Olympic lifters and strongman would destroy bodybuilders in every exercise, not even close. Numbers Ronnie squatted in a suit with knee wraps they squat raw, without belt...





300kg x 12 squat... man.

Nothing better than being the strongest in the world and remain unknown and compete infront of max 100 people. What is olympic gold compared to the glory of winning in a tire flipping contest.

Yeah and with those bench shirts they have trouble touching their chests with the weight. They literally have to use their lats to row 1000lbs into their chest with GRAVITY on their side. Thats how much of a joke geared powerlifting is nowadays.

Olympic lifters. They move the heavier weight the greater distance. More athletic because lifting a heavier a greater distance overhead requires timing, quickness and speed. Along with the power to do so.  Cleaning 500+ off the floor and than jerking it overhead will require the weight to be moved at least 6 to 8 feet in the air.. Also requires the confidence to do so. The cardio is usually tested quite a bit in training.

Pl'ers have a much shorter range for the weight to travel. With squatting, the Olympic lifter will usually drop down to almost ass to the floor, while Pl'ing only requires a slight break below the knees.  DL's require a full standing position, from the floor to the finish, still the weight is not being raise anywhere near the distance a Olympic lifter will raise a bar overhead; maybe 1/8 to 1/4 the distance (being kind here).

BB'ers are the delusional group of the three. Most can't make up their mind if the want to be strong, massive or a combo of both. Trying to use weights that are too heavy is no indication that you will get muscle mass, as far as BB'ing goes. Seen too many BB 'ers benching 240-280 (with smooth &complete control) with much more impressive chest/delts/triceps than a lot of 400+ benchers who are kicking and screaming doing their reps. BB'ers, not overly concerned with numbers on the BB or DB's, but performance,  will usually be the most successful.

Strongmen training  is a good example of a balance approach to lifting. An experience & background in Olympic or PL'ing is a must. Stamina (strength + endurance) goes alone with their core training.

 Personal view only:  Olympic, strongman and Power lifter in that order. Fourth for BB'ing. Good Luck.

If we're comparing top-flight practitioners (best of the best/apple-to-apple) of each discipline, this is how it pans out ...

#1: Powerlifter ~ A raw/classic elite lifter will exhibit the greatest absolute strength, pound for pound. Despite all the goofy-as-fuck multi-ply gear, the act of squatting to depth, bench pressing with full control and deadlifting monstrous weight from the floor constitutes athleticism. Specifically, as mentioned, the athletic attribute of absolute strength. Just like marathon runners exhibit the specific athletic attribute of cardiovascular conditioning.

#2: Strongman ~ Must have a strong foundation in the development in absolute strength. With this, he can then develop the dynamic athleticism to perform the various events. An incredible work capacity is a must.

#3: Olympic lifter/weightlifter ~ While possessing incredible strength, the greater attributes for ultimate success for weightlifters is agility, technical precision, power/explosiveness and co-ordination/skill. Absolute strength is not nearly as prized here as it is for the powerlifter. Distance of resistance moved has zero to do with determining one sport as a sport and another as not. To argue for this ridiculous notion is to suggest sprinters aren't athletes because they do not cover as much distance as a marathon runner, etc.

#4: Bodybuilder ~ Many bodybuilders possess an incredible capacity for pushing and pulling sub-maximal poundage for insane aggregate volume. Hence the exceptional muscular development in terms of muscle belly hypertrophy and, often, visual vascularity.

And, again, remember this is comparing apples to apples in each discipline and "in general".

P.S. It's always disheartening to read responses from so many here who haven't the foggiest idea about something, yet insist on exposing this fact to all those who do.
