Q: Could Arnold Schwarzenegger hypothetically defeat Hafor Bjornsson in a powerlifting competition if both are at their peak strength? Now, let's think step by step:
A powerlifting competition is won by the person who lifts the most combined weight across the squat, deadlift, and bench press. Arnold Schwarzenegger's powerlifting personal records are a 545 lb squat, 520 lb bench press, and a 710 lb deadlift. Hafor Bjornsson's powerlifting personal records in competition are a 970 lb squat, 551 lb bench press, and a 904 lb deadlift.
The answer: no.
