    Are you a mod? Why does it matter to you? To answer your question, several strongmen (including myself) post on this forum. There is no strongman forum here so the strongmen that post on this forum post here. Powerlifters and strongman training use similar principles.

    Was it a good competition? I stopped following WSM when Savickas and a bunch of other guys stopped competing in it. Not trying to take anyting away from the other competitiors, but that year it didnt feel like much of a competition for Pudzianowski without Savickas and Virastyuk in the run, sounds like that has changed though?

    Yep it was a great competition! It went down to the last event (atlas stones). As a matter of fact, American, Derrick Poundstone's stone slipped off the platform and Mariusz ended up winning! Very tight comp.

    Strongman, especially, WSM did take a bit of a hit with the TWI/IFSA split. Taking the likes of Savickas, Virastuyk, and Koklyez (sp?). But with the severe financial decline of IFSA and the increased importance of the Arnold Classic, I guarantee you'll begin to see a lot more cross over.

    Strongman wants to avoid the alphabet soup that is powerlifting. No offense to our powerlifter brethren. We are all brothers in strength.

    Maybe you might want to tell a mod or admin that you would like it if they created a strongman forum… O.K. big guy?

    i put in the suggestion to an admin months ago, havent heard any news yet

    strongman and powerlifting go hand in hand, please post all strongman material here until we get a separate forum,if we ever do, i love it and would never delete

    congrats to Puzo. that was close. a lot of guys are coming close to puzo strength level and giving him a run for his money. he lost that close one to pfister and almost lost this one
