I take it that he expired at the ripe old age of 33. Any particular reason why?


at least they live longer than most Pro bodybuilders on average... ;)

Derek Poundstone is another strongman competitor with a really good physique. But guys like him and Mariusz are rare among the strongman community







It's because they train similar to bodybuilders but by limiting the machine use.

Matt Kroc also has a good build for a perma fatty powerlifter.


More along the lines of what I would want to go for, minus being strong (who cares about that shit??)

Good luck attaining that type of build without being strong.
