bodybuilder vs. powerlifter

[spatts]

Same here...I have stated many times that I feel I get great results from WSB specifically because it demands speed, strength, endurance, etc. Not every powerliter does WSB, just like not every body builder is doing 3 x 15, two muscles a day. Those from each group that leave everything they've got on the platform seem to rise to the top, from what I've seen. Just like the example you gave.

And Platz got his ass handed to him by Fred Hatfield when it was time to do a single.

Of course!! This is Dr. Squat!!! I love reading his books because he has a strong scientific approach. Fred pulled of some freaky feats in his prime.

In his book it shows his heart stress test compared to a marathon runners, when under a light load his barely moved and the marathoners jumped up big time(can't remember the specific stuff- read it in hs). He did some good stuff imo. lol Dr. Squat- Cpt. Kirk- gotta love nick names. The Drunkin' Indian Geronimo has spoken lol.
