Can’t believe so many people in this thread are talking about bodybuilding vs powerlifting.
Pudzianowski was a strongman, not a powerlifter. That said, strongmen regularly squat and deadlift, in ways at least similar to powerlifting.
Kriakos was an olympic weightlifter, meaning he practiced the clean & jerk and snatch..neither of those are powerlifting movements.
The only difference here is that Pudzianowski was more experienced with the movements.
