Designed to bring the benefits of strongman training to everyone who is interested in improved endurance, power and speed, the certification course “Strongman training is for all walks of life [and is] more fun, more movement than your regular gym training routines.”

The certification is set for February 25–26, 2012 and you can register on the Global Strongman Gym website.
