This Strongman Competition is not just about showcasing physical strength; it’s about promoting mental well-being and fostering community support. As advocates for mental health, Hunter Strength and Fitness believe in the transformative power of weightlifting and its positive impact on mental health. By organising this event, we aim to raise awareness about the importance of mental health while providing a platform for individuals to challenge themselves physically and mentally. Over the years, our Strongman Competition has become a beacon of hope and inspiration for our community. With over 1000 spectators attending last year’s event, we have witnessed firsthand the enthusiasm and support from our community members.
This year, we are determined to make our event even bigger and better. Furthermore, we are thrilled to announce that our Strongman Competition will feature international celebrity judge 2X world’s strongest woman and 4X Britain’s strongest woman Andrea Thompson. Andrea’s presence adds an exciting dimension to our event, attracting attention from both local and global audiences. By supporting this event we can create a stronger, more supportive community and help accomplish our mission to promote mental well-being through fitness.
