Now on with the show!

First Round -TYRE FLIP


Lloyd starts off the smackdown by getting the competition tyre for 8 reps over 15m.



The competitive atmosphere at our Strongman Smackdown is just what Kesavan needed to exceed himself. Can he get his last flip up with the crowd supporting him?



He did it!
Well done Kesavan! - A new personal record of 8 flips on the competition tyre!



Second Round - FARMERS WALK


Chee Piang attempts the 90kg-a-side logs aiming to go 15m!

Yoshida puts a new meaning to 'A Walk in the Park!'



Going the full distance of 15m with the logs.



Final Round - SLED PULL



Raphael starting the final event off. The Sled Pull - 240kg over 15m



Andrew shows he can do it too.


Bala at 17 is brave enough to join in the strength party! Seen here holding his own.
Age does not matter here - only size does!
The Size of your Heart!

Making Singapore Stronger!

It seems we are continuing Making Singapore Stronger! One person at a time!

In this edition of the Strongman Spotlight, we have Lloyd. A local university student with a passion for fitness!

Llyod wrote in about his interest to join us for the Free First-Timer Trial Session and here's what he had to say about it:

"Hi team behemoths, First of all i would like to thank Sam for the complimentary session, as well as his invaluable knowledge and making my presense comfortable during training. People there are really friendly, prompting me to try new stuff, and also guided me alot should my posture be wrong and stuff. I did the tyre flip and the sled push for the first time, sled push was really taxing on the quads, tyre flip was pretty fun though. I foresee many more training with them as i hope to grow stronger and better with them. It was a good environment with people guiding and pushing you to slowly improve yourself. See you guys next sunday!"



Thanks for the feedback Lloyd!

The Team will always be behind you in your journey to be Stronger!
