The Arnold Strongman Classic is coming up this weekend. It's looking like it will be an awesome test of strength between some of the strongest men in the world. They removed the Circus Dumbell and added Weight Over bar with a sandbag. A dynamic event should be a good addition, even though the Dumbell is my favourite event. The Elephant Bar Deadlift is back also. The Yoke is still there which disappointing because it always hurts people. A few years ago it took out Lalas for a number of years. Zydrunas just pulled out of the contest after seriously injuring himself with a 700kg yoke. Anyone who has ever tried a heavy Yoke knows how crushing it is. Brian Shaw has been posting some crazy training videos. He is over 450lbs now, and I am sure he will dominate.
There is a womens pro contest this year with some amazing Strongwoman. There has been an amature contest for a few years. Check out strong champions Donna Moore, Kristin Rhodes, and Kaitlin Burgess. The growth of Strongwoman in recent years is awesome.
Anyone pay attention to modern strongman?
