i know most Powerlifters do carry some extre weight around the middle--but being well to overfead keeps them strong
and think about this
the power lifter weighs 250 @ 20% bf--and the BB weighs 180@ 10%
now lets diet them down to a contest ripped 2%--the Powerlifter now weighs 205 and the bodybuilder weighs 164
the powerlifter is still holding 41 pounds more mass--now lets say they both took their weight class--now their on stage for best of show--lets say they are both 5'10"----now lets see who takes the trophy
lets say they are now walking down the beach on spring break and encounter some hoochies--that extra 40# is gonna go a long way in the impression dept
