GNC Show of Strength 2003

Coming off its huge success this weekend, look for the GNC Show of Strength again next year.

Also in the works is a series of three to five regional contests, which will lead up to the final event.

Chad Coy, who ran the Twinlab All American Strongman Challenge, as part of the Show of Strength, credits all the competitors for turning in great performances and said that Phil Pfister doing a harness pull with a 300-ton river boat, to kick off the show, made the ESPN top ten. "A big thanks to Twinlab," Coy said, "for supporting strongman."
