STRONGMAN is dying

Before bodybuilding, before CrossFit, before powerlifting… there was this. From Scottish Highland Games and Icelandic fishermen to the chaos of the first World’s Strongest Man competitions — Strongman has always been the foundation of strength culture. But today, with smaller crowds, fewer shows, and massive social media growth, one question remains: 👉 Is Strongman dying, or is it just transforming into something new? Join Mitchell Hooper, World’s Strongest Man, as he explores the rise, fall, and rebirth of Strongman — from Jon Páll Sigmarsson to Brian Shaw, Big Z, Eddie Hall, and the modern era of content-driven athletes. This is the full story of how Strongman went from lifting stones to building digital empires. If you love the sport, this one’s for you.
