worlds strongest man

[bhamstaff]

is there a forum for world strongest man or is this included in powerlifting?

im from UK, always been interested in strongman comps, was wondering what level of strength and fitness, etc you'd need to be at to be able to place anywhere in a small or amatuer competition?

also never done any sort of strongman training before, ive read alot of competitors make their own equipment out of scaffolding or weld their own equipment? love to know how this is done and also what sort of training splits strongman do.

im only 22, and not the strongest guy on here but would love to have a go at a small comp here in UK.

i can deadlift 270kg, squat 240kg and bench 180kg.

check out www.marunde-muscle.com. It was started by the late Jesse Marunde and his wife. Many top strongman including Derrick Poundstone, Mikhail Kokleyez, Travis Ortmeyer, etc., also some top UK strongmen post there as well. The only thing is you cannot talk about AAS at all.

Yea man you better start working on that, 600 pound bench....weak sauce man, im ashamed.......jk. Ive never been a bencher, but it would be fun to send people flying with a strong push...literally flying. (INSERT STORY HERE(im hoping there is a story)).

i still think there should be a strongman section? surely there is more than just me who'd appreciate it?
