Calisthenics VS Powerbuilding - STRENGTH WARS 2k15 #5

[@andreasa.1376]

10 KG of difference, and they lifted the same weights. The Callisthenics guy is a beast

[@zentomon2420]

Andreas A. y tho and the exercise is mostly about weightlifting which is like seeing wrestler that lose to boxers in a boxing match

[@AhmadAdyarso]

Zentomon suppose they have 15% body fat, that 85% means 8.5 kg muscle mass different and that is huge.

Muscle and size doesn’t determine strength

[@ChickenNuggetMN]

Christofer Rage to an extent it does

[@nw3877]

Christofer Rage muscle and size does determine strength. Its not 100% correlated though. There are exceptions always. But muscle size CAN make a difference.

[@SausageFest]

Bodybuilder guy is literally kicking himself up and using momentum for the pull ups while the Callisthenics guy is using actual arm strength and STILL finished first. That should speak volumes.

[@quickstep2408]

lol, you shouldn't be focusing on using "arm strength", these are pull ups man... which are the cali guy's strong suit. lats all day

+hunter how is that not a good comparison?

[@hunman21]

Oversimplification. Comparisons of this kind are generally unhelpful. To claim "wrestling is to boxing as calisthenics is to powerlifting" is to make false assumptions that we could discuss but I really don't care.It is not that you are "wrong" because one can make comparisons of these nature for the sake of entertainment perhaps, but in doing so you also vastly oversimplify the differences and similarities between the two disciplines.

[@Labochain.Stratégie]

true

[@Labochain.Stratégie]

+Rafael Lopez-Cardeño his pull up's form was disgusting if we compare it with the calisthenic guy , dead hang each rep.

[@STRENGTHWARS]

So again for everybody stating this was in favour of Koray: Sorry but no. Matthias is the German champion in weighted Pull Ups. So Deadlift -> easy for Koray. Pull Ups -> easy for Matthias. Matthias even was up when it came to clean squat with 50kg! The last discipline was the one to decide the battle and this was pretty easy in terms of weight FOR BOTH, but a question of willpower and endurance. We are searching for the best / most complete athletes.

[@baristiworkout]

Much respect to both warriors, they both gave 150% and that should not be diminished in any way. But Korays pull ups were reaaaaaaally sloppy. With all due understanding that this is not a strict pull up competition, still...the constant legkicks to get the chin over the bar were way way more than you can excuse. Matthias did 100% perfect pull ups all the way. If the same was expected for both, Koray wouldn't even have finished the 20 pull ups at all. Still, both did a great job and congrats to Koray

So the conclusion is that a guy who lifts weight for a living is better at lifting weights. k. Even the powerbuilder's fucked up reps were counted Also, wtf lol, the powerbuilder had people rushing over to help him into his weights quickly for the pullup part and the calisthenics guy just had to get into his himself. No one in this gym wanted him to win lmao

[@Vasyaliske]

Yeah, I also noticed that powerlifter guy on powerlifting field had more support))) Also consider this: calisthenics guy who trains with fan and has light mood is just a little bit weaker than powerlifter. So... why do I want to be a powerlifter? So thumb up for calisthenics)

Ya that's exactly what I was telling my friend, I told him they should 50 push ups after the last one then we'll really see who has inner strength

[@mattkaye6559]

So, let's say they both trained those exercises for 2 months before. They're all weighted... and Kora weighs about 9kg (20lbs) more than Matthias. And they have similar bodytypes... the 20lbs is muscle. Even with that, and the judging being in favor of the one who goes to the gym instead of the street and parks (as it usually is for strength wars) Matthias came very close to beating Kora. The point in the end is that for upper body workouts. Calisthenics will get you more strength per pound of muscle, and gym workouts will get you bigger, and therefore stronger, but not as strong per pound. If you wanna just call BS... In calisthenics you are using your bodyweight, so your body adapts and doesn't grow as much so it is easier to move yourself. When lifting weights, the body doesn't care how big it gets, as long as it can lift the necessary weight.

+Harry wilkinson What the calisthenics guy do when doing "pull ups"? Maybe PULLING UP his weight+any external weight he wants? A weightlifting competition is the only way to make it an exclusive strength competition. Levers, Flags, even Muscle Ups are much more about technique than raw strength.

[@Oxideist]

+Lucas Freire more about technique than strength? I'm sorry, but you're wrong in that regard. calisthenics is about muscular endurance, the ability to move your own bodyweight for extended periods of time. levers and flags aren't just technique like shooting a bow and arrow or dribbling a basketball, they're about muscles being able to hold a strenuous position for a long time. weight lifting is about your muscles working heavily for short periods of time, then giving them rest before exerting them again. The muscle that body building gives you isn't suitable for calisthenics, I would know, I switched from weight lifting to calisthenics about two years ago, it was an incredibly hard transition at first because I wasn't used to doing those kinds of movements. Once my muscles changed themselves to be lighter and stronger pound for pound, I made progress.

[@AlmightViper]

+Oxideist AGR Excuse me but drawing and holding a bow and arrow isn't about technique either, its about your muscular endurance. Aiming and releasing is where technique come into play:).

[@LiongkyTan]

There was nothing unfair about it. - For the cleans in the end, I just was too dead, also mentally, it was really tough!! - Strengthwars is still young and like any Sport and Events will evolve an get better, so to everyone, please keep the critics positive, its a great thing, they do! - this battle was very close, so nothing unfair about it, I enjoyed the challenge - last but not least: NEVER BE A KEYBOARD WARRIOR AND STAY OPEN MINDED; FIRST THINK THEN TYPE;) All the best, Matthias

[@ImDrizzt]

+aresman1234 Yeah, it's rly friggin cool, but what can we do, we have to judge it, cos they can't balance this very well. To make it more fair, do stuff outdoors where Calistetic have more chance.

In bench competitions, the winner is the person that lifted the higher percentage to their body weight. If the competition used similar parameters, it might be a completely different ballgame. I'd also throw in another callisthenics exercise to provide a good comparison of their physical ability. Pushups would be an ideal choice, as would dips. But I suppose the channel was focused on lifting rather than bar and floor work.

I have never commented before but i had to say something because i thought this was completely biased and unfair. Calisthenics is exercise with your own body weight and aims towards body mastery. Powerlifiting is exactly as described, now i have tremendous respect for both athletes and know the dedication needed to achieve their level of fitness and strength. However having Dead lift and weighted squats is completely favorable to the Powerlifter. The powerlifter can lift heavier faster and this test was a test of that, i would like to see the powerlifter have a one armed pull up challenge or leg raises, handstand pushups etc. of coarse still make it fair by having tough exercises from both sports. All in all i think this made people who do not understand think calisthenics is weaker than powerlifting and yes in cases it is but it also is not, and yes this channel focuses on strength so i understand that perspective but it just annoyed me how unfair it was.
