It was my pleasure to attend the Great Lakes Strongman Showdown IV.  This event was held Saturday 17, 2006 at Halmich Park - Warren, Mi.

   A few highlights:


2in" Axle Deadlift for reps. 450lbs light/500lbs heavy

 
2 in" Axle Clean & Press for reps 200lbs light/225lbs heavy
 
 
                        "Watch your toes!

  
Stones to Descending Platforms 220-330lbs light/240-360lbs heavy



That's my kids....preparing for their 500lb. deadlift......in a few years.   

   The North American Strongman Inc. (NAS) will promote another local competition on June 24, 2006.  This event, The Ultimate Beach Party Showdown, will be held at Snapper's Bar & Grill, in Fenton, Mi.  See you there?
