And how did you find your first competition? What kind of events/weight are seen at a novice level strongman competition?

here in the midwest there's a federation called NASS North American Strongman Society they put on a lot of meets, a guy named Bill Holland out of Ronnie Colemans gym used to run it but i think he passed the ownership to someone else, they always have a lot of weight classes in their meets, it's a great starting point for a lot of guys.

you don't even have to tryout for most local strongman meets, just pay the entry fee and sign up, just make sure you're decent at the events so you don't embarass yourself, try to find a gym that has the implements and train with them, you don't have to be a monster on the regular gym lifts to be good at strongman.
