Who has more strength?

When it comes to training there’s no doubt that bodybuilders have a tough task to accomplish. Not only must they lift heavy to gain size, but they must also make sure they undergo hypertrophy to stimulate muscle growth. In much the same way football players must lift heavy for strength. When you step onto the football field as a defensive lineman there’s no way you can be a weakling. Since bodybuilders focus more on building size than strength there’s often times the question of whether or not they could compete against athletes in other sports in a feat of strength.

Well if you were ever wondering how a bodybuilder and football player would match up in feats of strength then the video below will do well to answer the question.
