2.19K viewsBiologyOther

i’ve watched a ty video comparing Mariusz Pudzianowski and Kyriakos Grizzly, and it was said that even tho Grizzly had way more pure muscle mass, his powerlifting scores were lower. How is it possible that with more muscle mass he didn’t lift more?

Muscle size is very important for strength but not only thing. Coordination, muscle fiber distribution, neural drive, where your tendon connects to your bone, even how much energy you have at a given moment, will all make a difference in the total amount of weight someone can lift.
