Training for strongman is one of the best ways to build usable tactical strength. This is the perfect strongman contest for beginners. The Strongest Man at the Y will be held Sept 25, 2010 at the Salisbury, NC YMCA. Events:

-short bus pull
-Atlas stones (180lb, 235, 250)- tacky allowed
-tire flip (550lb tire)
-farmer's walk (120lb per hand)- these implements are MUCH easier to handle than DBs
-Fingal Fingers

Weight classes:

under 175
176-210
211-250
251 & up

Entry fee is $25. I've done this contest before, it's well run and a good time. For more info contact Kenny Seagle at (704) 636 0111 ext 223 kseagle@rowanymca.com
