This is the incredible, untold story of the man who became one of the most decorated strongmen in history. Follow Big Z's journey from growing up in Soviet-occupied Lithuania, where he found inspiration in Arnold Schwarzenegger and seized the liberation of strength sports.

He won the World's Strongest Man title four times and the Arnold Strongman Classic a record eight times, gathering over 250 trophies. We break down the simple, "blue collar" training split and mindset that allowed him to compete against three generations of strongmen and secure over 115 first-place wins.
