Gene Rychlak
The man is a pinnacle of the sport. I still wouldnt recommend HIS diet habits for the topic of this particular thread - losing fat and building lean muscle.
And if you look here:

(scroll down to the comments about the pudding, fried chicken and soda)
you can see that quite often than not, "anything goes" for the powerlifter as the diet is applied for a different purpose than the bodybuilder. |
A lot of powelifters I know follow the "see food diet" which is basically, "you see food and you eat it." It's not uncommon for an extra large pizza to be a post workout meal. Hell, add a bag of chips and a 2L bottle of Pepsi and it's one of my friend's meals
Here's a pic of Andy Bolton. The man set the WR for deadlift at 971 and is thought of by many to be the first man who will deadlift 1,000. As you can see, his physique is not what one would call the best.
