    June bank holiday weekend 2010 @ World Strongman Challenge in Limerick
    We have some mma exhibition fights and technique demos
    Boxing fights, Powerlifting comp, and a kickboxing exhibition. We are trying to organise a caveman training section.

    What fed is the powerlifting comp gonna be? Looks like I'm gonna miss the IDFPA nationals if they're in April. I might be able to leave the house by June and maybe compete in this.

    Excellent a real cool event for the city, i'll definately be there.

    Strongman favorites for me
    farmers walk
    stones
    overhead press / log press (especially if Savickus is coming!)

    Best of luck with the event!

    I was involved with organising the irish strong man in drogheda 2 years ago;

    truck pull was the crowd fav for sure
    free bouncy castles, face painting, etc were a big hit too.

    good luck with it all, i'll be there

    aswell as the strongman competition we have the Sports Nutrition Expo with 15 of the biggest companies having stalls with tons of freebees as well as the Live Marquee with MMA fights in the octagon, boxing , kick boxing and the open Irish powerlifting challenge over and under 90kg.

    We also have free bouncing castles and slide, zorbez, Bungee run and paintball shooting range all for free.

    Who is doing the MMA for you?

    Pole push looks fantastic, hard to get across to people how strong people like yourself are IMO. Flipping big tyres and pulling trucks etc. lets ordinary people 'see' your strength.


    Loved seeing Glen Ross squat under those barrells full of water. That's something anyone can appreciate. Check him out at about 1.36.
    285 kilos for 15 reps!
