Today I have gathered four of the strongest bodybuilders I know to answer the question that divides the world. Who is truly the strongest? Men or women? Facing her were men of three different levels. Athletic guys who don't do bodybuilding. Athletes who do weight training and finally professional bodybuilders. Six trials to decide between them, with increasing difficulty. Quickly, quickly, quickly, quickly Why did I come? Mess. The first challenge, lifting it from the ground. Ladies, your opponent in this challenge will be trashy.
I think the guy isn't that much heavier than the bar. Trash versus Julia, please. First bar, 40 kg. You easily get me worked up. Trash, please. My name is trash. I've done weight training before. Look at. Observed. OK, let's add 10 more. Easy. Trash. Alright. It's rising. My name is Julien. What I like about bodybuilding is pushing yourself beyond your limits. See how the horn evolves. Come on, come on. OK, that's good. 100 kg. Yes. Oh, easy, no worries already. You see, it's starting to get interesting now. Okay, okay, it's approved. Well done. It always works out.
There, you're right, I think, on that one Come on, be strong. Come on. Oh, come on. Trash. I was too scared. I understand too. 140 kg. Come on. Oh, OK. Trash. I'm not signing up for that. Use your legs well. Come on, come on, come on, come on. I'm going to wreck my back, yeah. No, but don't hurt yourself, don't hurt yourself [laughs], don't hurt yourself. Wait, wait, I know why. Yes, I had forgotten about that. Go. OK. Well done! Well done. Julia wins against Trash with a lift of 140 kg. She's a champion. Challenge number 2, developing it while lying down. The opponent will be Jules.
Come on man, have you ever done a bench press Never, never. So for this challenge, it will be Emma. Emma, please. The opponents will have to do as many repetitions as possible at their body weight. Jules will therefore have to put 93 kg on the bar and Mac 70 kg on the bar. Okay, let's go Come on. Easy. Oney. It's good. 2. Go easy. Okay, number 3. My name is Emma. I'll be 29 soon. I started bodybuilding about ten years ago because it combines aesthetics and performance. Okay, number 4. great. Do you want to pose? I'm at what you have four there. Great! Okay, okay, great. Go get something solid. Well done again, well done machine, well done! My first competition, I came first in my category, body fitness final, French FB
European Championship, but now I'm trying to build a physique to come back ready and win. There are 35 seconds left, come on, one more, one more, easy, easy, easy Yeah, it's good, it's done, well done. Well So Jules weighs 93 kg. Jules has never done any weight training in his life and Jul wonders why he came today. Come on, let's encourage him. Great! Are you stuck? No. [laughs] Bravo. We can applaud him. Well done for taking up the challenge. Can we still put the same weight on him as I did before? Should you work it at your own weight Yes.
77 kg. Top. Okay, that's good. Think about it for a little while. Yeah. Come on. OK. Faster. Pousse recuperate. Take a breath. Come on. Come on, be brave. My name is Jul, I am 24 years old. I do bodyweight training, anything that involves cardio. Go! Go. He gives his all. Gene everything. Why the hell did I come? Come on, give it your all. Obviously, I'm apprehensive about competing against professional athletes because it's really their job, it's their livelihood. They're giving it their all, they
're at the top of their game. 30 seconds remaining. We're going to try to give it our all for the last one. Okay, that's fine. Well done, Jul. What people may think is that it's against nature for a woman to be very muscular, but well, we have our muscle fibers. It's a matter of taste, and we would have stopped a long time ago if it affected us. Emma won with nine repetitions, but frankly Jules didn't do badly. Now we move on to level 2, Éic and I who practice weight training regularly, and then real pro bodybuilders. Third squat test.
The goal is to do as many repetitions as possible at your body weight in 2 minutes. Body weight, of course, on the bar, not body weight. It won't just be physical strength that comes into play, there's also the mental aspect. 3 2 1 top! Let's go ! One 2 3 4 Go! 7. Breathe, trace the parallel. Okay, that's great. Well, the goal is not to do your maximum right away. She's really going for it there. My name is Morgan, I am a personal trainer and group fitness instructor. I've been training for 13 years. I started at 14. I am the 2024 IFBB French Boty Fitness Champion.
I also won the Colmar top. You know you want to take a break, right? You can take a break whenever you want, right? Yeah, it's going to be tough actually. [laughs] Bravo. Come on, give it your all. It's good. Say "Go Morgan" in the comments. 40 seconds of pleasure. Pure pleasure. I wanted to participate in this video to show that we, as women, can compare ourselves to men in certain challenges, whether it be endurance, mental strength, or physical strength. There are 20 seconds left. Come on, be brave. Go! 10 seconds. 5 4 3 2 1 Wow! Well done! How are you doing?
It's congested! Wow! Did all the group classes you took help you Sometimes I do squats for 5 minutes. Wow! I've never taken a group class, [laughs] never. I don't even know if anyone counted, she kept going so fast. I was planning to do sets of 5 at the beginning, you see. At this point, I feel like I'm going to have to push myself a little harder. 54 repetitions to beat. Come on! 3 2 1 top! There are still 3 left, that's good. Come on, be brave. He is concentrated, focused. Okay, great. There, we don't realize the same thing, it's that it pumps up the thighs and cardio, a muscular endurance. My name is ERC Flag and I am a YouTuber. I started bodybuilding at 17.
Street workout, anything involving running, cardio. Okay, great. It's very heavy. An 87 is loud. There is a battle, there is a war. Just one more minute. Ah OK.

I did two categories, so figure and women's physique where I finished second. The last competition won my category, so a physical woman, do you often do pull-ups or not? No. All right. [laughs] Ah, this is starting to get serious. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Well done. I think it's important to remember that 90% of the people who watch the video don't know how to do a pull-up. So here, we applaud what we
love about the person. Ready 30. Go Jul, it's Go Jul. Come on, come on. Well done Julia, well done. She impressed us. I need to pass it to at least get the point. OK, that's good. First victory for the men. 1 to 3. Let's go. Now we move on to the next level with the real bodybuilders. Let's go! 5th event, maximum weight in lateral elevation and whoever lifts the heaviest wins. Who will participate? For men, it would be our friend Theo the warrior. We're counting on you, man. If we lose, we're screwed. Okay, I'll give it all away. Which is the widest? [laughs] Are you confident about the lateral movements too?
Never done that in my life. That's not true. Stop, I don't want to believe you anymore. I like it that way. [laughs] The birth was hard for my mother but Ocean against Theo. This is going to be a good war. 20 kg. Come on, it can go up. You have a good opponent there. I'll try it out of curiosity. Damn, that's crazy. And I'm not pretending, I promise you. Wow, that's crazy. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Well done. Ocean. I am 30 years old. I started bodybuilding in 2018. I was in the IFB elite federation. I've switched to NPC.

I started bodybuilding at 17 and therefore my first professional competition was at 19 in Las Vegas at 25. Go Oceanz. OK, please. 28, that was validated just before. And yeah, what's super impressive, having been in the gym a lot, is that I've never seen a woman lift 28 kg like that. Bravo éc, do you want to try it? Yeah, it 's [__] insane, it's impressive.
I think we need the 30 kgz, come on. OK. Hop 30 kg 30. We should have started at 30 actually, huh. Go ahead too. Come on!

Go ahead, please Theo.
Alright, let's go. Go victory! Theo wins. The most difficult thing [in music] is the way people look at the competitions on social media. There's a lot of talk. We're more or less aliens. We are not women to other people, let's say, average people. I also find it interesting to be able to showcase women in the body. Men's victory 2 to 3. 6th event, push your weight on the sled push and do as many meters as possible in 2 minutes. We have one candidate left, David. David, we're counting on you, man.
