What is Strongman?
​
Strongman is a strength sport that tests various aspects of someone’s physical capabilities.
There are static tests of strength like the overhead press, squat and deadlift.
There are moving events which require the athlete to carry an odd weighted object for a set distance or timeframe and tests of strength where an athlete is required to lift an object onto a platform or over a bar.
The objects can range from anything from a sandbag to a concrete atlas stone.
Men and women compete, participate and train strongman.

Certified Personal Trainer & Strongman Coach
Weight training has been a passion of mine for the past 19 years. Whether it was getting ready for a sport, or pushing myself out of a comfort zone, training has always been an outlet I've used to help myself and others.
I've been competing in strongman for about eight years with multiple National competition appearances in the middleweight division. I won Maryland's Strongest Man in the 200lb weight class in 2019. I also competed at the Official Strongman Games in 2018 in the 90kg weight class and qualified for the Arnold XPC Deadlift Championships in 2021.
With Deep Blue Training, I am interested in teaching the sport of strongman to the average gymgoer, prospective competitor and to simply make people better through unconventional methods.
