Derek Poundstone, only because his physique is a bit more realistic natty than Mariusz (IMO). Also to be as strong and as conditioned. Inb4 "no strongman is natty".
Don't get all the Zyzz worship, yeah he was shredded and had great muscle insertions, but unhealthy lifestyle and wasn't all that strong.
I don't see what's wrong with that 0ni - I honestly think that Poundstone looks better and also looks more like a guy who lives a semi normal life. I probably would have picked Jim Wendler if he was in the list.
Poundstone is fucking huge, there is literally no way you can come close to that naturally lol. In fact Beckham and Zyzz are the only remotely naturally achievable physiques there.
He is fatter so more likely to run less gear... lol. Too bad it doesn't work that way. Gear doesn't make you lean unfortunately, putting down the fork does.
Massive!! what sort of calorie intake would this guy need to maintain size?? Leaving gear use out.. And to what age would you be able to look like this before you start to look plain just fat and overweight?

looking at the world's natural strongest man, I'm afraid you're could be right, they all look tiny or overly fat in comparison. I'd have thought that there would be less required to maintain a higher bodyfat % than trying to not only carry a large amount of muscle and low bodyfat. Poundstone does claim that he's natural though, although I suppose Ronnie Coleman does too.
Last time I watched a doco on strongmen, they all reckoned they were eating ~5-7000 cals a day.
Zyzz wasn't natural at all, this is widely known. I suppose if you were lifting for women Zyzz or Fight Club Brad Pitt etc would be your goal body, as that's what they like.
His face is probably due to the fact he is like 140kg lol.
Don't really get dudes that big without a bit of a moon face no matter how shredded they are. Even when estrogen is nuked
