We know what kind of show Sean Katterle and Hardcore Powerlifting can put on. Remember last year at the Ronnie Coleman show in Dallas, TX? That little skinny fella named Benedikt Magnusson flew in from European snow country and completed one of the most incredible athletic performances of all time in any sport? Ya, you remember... he deadlifted 1,015lbs with nary a concern. Well, in 2012 SeanZilla and the Hardcore Powerlifting series is back. MHP has increased their prize monies and Sean has added a second show in my hometown of Seattle, Wa!

LAURENCE SHAHLAEI steps up to the racetrack. It is 35C in the shade in a stadium in Istanbul and the 28-year-old from Gloucester is about to achieve the impossible: he picks up two huge cylinders in either hand, each weighing more than 330lb, walks up the track and back, picks up an even heavier weight and carries it to a stand, where he hoists it up and places it on top.
The ESPN broadcast schedule for the 2011 MET-Rx World’s Strongest Man has changed . WSM 2011 will now be aired on the 14th January 2012.
2012 Arnold Strongman Classic
The Arnold Strongman Classic annually features the world’s top strongman professionals in a two-day competition to determine the world’s strongest man. 2011 champion Brian Shaw of Colorado, who also won the 2011 World's Strongest Man competition, will be back to defend his title. He will face a field that is likely to include 2011 runner-up Mike Jenkins of Baltimore; six-time champion Zydrunas Savickas of Lithuania, who finished third in 2011; and two-time Arnold Strongman Classic champion Derek Poundstone of Waterbury, Conn.

(The following is an account of Derek Poundstone's attempt to win the World's Strongest Man contest in North Carolina, USA, in September 2011. There were nine other athletes in the finals of the competition, but the Waterbury Observer focused primarily on Poundstone because he lives in Waterbury, Connecticut. He's our strongman. In tribute to the other athletes we've included several images of their attempts to bring home the championship to their hometown, or country. It was an historic competition.)
