Strongman Mariusz Pudzianowski Tribute
![]() (Mariusz proud to be Metro.) Bio Mariusz Pudzianowski Official Site: :: Oficjalny serwis Mariusza Pudzianowskiego :: www.pudzian.pl :: Pudzian Team :: Mariusz Pudzianowski has been involved in strength sports since the December of 1990. At the young age of 16, he entered his first national bench press competition and managed to press 160kg (353lb). Two years later, Mariusz joined the four-wheel club with a 205kg (452lb) lift. His domination of the Polish Championships in the four years that he entered would be the beginning of a pattern of victories that would lead him to become the Word's Strongest Man in 2002. Aside from being a world-class strength athlete, Mariusz maintains and constantly improves his agility, conditioning, and general physical preparedness through other athletic endeavors. He is an exponent of Kyokushin karate (fourth kyu), which he has been practicing since the age of 11. He was also a competitive boxer for seven years, three of which were spent in the Kosedowski League. On May 1, 1999, Mariusz entered his first Strongman competition, which was held in Plock, Poland. Mariusz is a favorite every Strongman competition he enters, having been defeated only twice in Poland through 2002, and his worst placing being a respectable second. ![]() (Before any big contest Mariusz likes to first apply various tanning oils.)

These are just excerpts of Mariusz's training program. Each of his training sessions is precluded by 15-min of skipping rope (of course, he used to be a boxer). He finishes every workout with abdominal work. On top of all this, there is twice-a-week karate practice and recovery work which includes swimming. (...). You can also find Mariusz doing his medium-distance runs. Love Mariusz X X X YouTube - Polish Mating Dance - Mariusz Pudzianowski & Aneta Florczyk "Sport dla wszystkich.

I respect the guy massiveley but more as a strongman and less of a model. Think he should just leave that stuff alone.
also i heard a commenetator say he were's oil to help in some events, like bay oil on his legs on the car deadlift, so when he is leaning back on the last few reps the bar slides over his legs easier.
