STRONGMAN HISTORY There is no better way to begin a complete guide to strongman than with the history and origin of the sport itself. On some level strongman has existed as long as man has existed. Humans have always had to lift rocks and logs, or carry loads of wheat or wood on their back etc. Further down the line in history we had to move ships by rowing with oars on a boat, or pull heavy loads with ropes. Human strength in its rawest most functional form has always been important for our survival. Ancient stories of strongman like Samson in the bible and the Greek myth of Hercules has captivated us for centuries. -
2010Year-In-Review
Mission The USAWA was formed to continue the long standing tradition of old-time weightlifters like Eugen Sandow, Louis Cyr, Arthur Saxon, Hermann Goerner, Warren Lincoln Travis, and many others. We strive to preserve the history of the original forms of weightlifting, which in the past has been referred to as ―odd lifting‖. Many of the lifts we perform are based on stage acts or challenge lifts of old-time strongmen. History The USAWA was organized in 1987 and was a charter member of the International All-Round Weightlifting Association. The USAWA has over 150 recognized lifts and 8000 plus records, so any strength athlete can find their niche. We have a drug testing program to encourage drug free lifting. Numerous local meets and a National competition are held each year to find true ―all-round‖ weightlifters.

Verdens Stærkeste Mand 2015
Verdens stærkeste mand 2015 By admin on August 8, 2015 Brian Shaw, verdens stærkeste mand 2015 Endnu engang går titlen som verdens stærkeste mand til amerikaneren Brian Shaw. Brian Shaw tog titlen som stærkeste mand ved en stærkmandskonkurrence der fandt sted i Malaysia tidligere på året. Dermed er det tredje gang i karrieren at Brian Shaw kunne løfte trofæet og kalde sig officiel verdens stærkeste mand. Shaw genvandt titlen, fra den islandske stærkmand Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson der blandt andet medvirker i successerien Game of Thrones i rollen som The Mountain. Umenneskelig styrke Med en højde på 203 cm og en kampvægt på 197 kilo, er der ingen tvivl om at Brian Shaw vækker opsigt når han går på gaden. Shaw, der går under navnet ‘Big Bear’, blev født i 1982 i Fort Lupton, Colorado. Hverken hans mor eller far var exceptionelt store med højder på henhodldvis 1,80 m og 1,83 m. På trods af dette blev Shaw ved med at vokse og i slutningen af high school vejede Shaw hele 110 kilo. Det var dog ikke kun hans vægt der var over gennemsnittet. Med sin store højde havde Shaw en stor fordel når der blev spillet basketball, derfor var Shaw en nøglespiller på holdet i mange år. Det var dog primært i styrkerummet hvor Shaw fandt sin ro og i 2005 begyndte Shaw sin karriere som stærkmand. Brian Shaw genvandt sin titlen som verdens stærkeste mand som han sidst havde i 2013. Brian shaws personlige rekorder Rekorder lavet i styrkelokale Squat – 800 lb (360 kg) Bænkpress – 525 lb (238 kg) Dødløft – 880 lb (400 kg) uden straps Stærkmand Dødløft ( med straps) – 985 lb (448 kg) Hummer Dæk Stærkmand Dødløft (med straps) – 1,140 lb (517 kg) Rekorder lavet til Stærkmand konkurrencer Stærkmand Dødløft ( med straps) – 974 lb (442.5 kg) (World’s Strongest Man finals 2013) Hummer Dæk Stærkmand Dødløft (med straps) – 1,122 lb (509 kg) (Arnold Strongman Classic 2013) Genvandt sin titel over ‘The Mountain’ Brian Shaw genvandt sin titel som verdens stærkeste fra den islandske stærkmand Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, bedre kendt som ‘The Mountain’ i Game of Thrones.
