powerlifting diet
Does powerlifting require the same kind of diet as bodybuilding?

Depends on the powerlifter.
Most still focus on getting plenty of protein and good fats, but other than that, don't need to pay as much attention.
All PLers still need to make weight, and many, especially in the lighter classes, use diet to get down into a class.Squats work better than supplements.
"You know, if I thought like that, I'd never put more than one plate on the bar for anything, I'd never use bands or chains, I'd never squat to parallel or below, and I'd never let out the slightest grunt when I lift. At some point in your lifting career (assuming you're planning on getting reasonably strong and big), you're going to have to accept that most people think you are some kind of freak." -Sensei
