eli5 why a person with more muscle mass doesn’t always lift more

2.17K 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?

There is a classic saying: It’s not the size that counts, it’s how you use it.

At the risk of repeating the excellent comments already in place, your body’s ability to use those muscles, the placement of the muscle mass, the leverage, and many other factors go into effective use of muscle present.
