The title went to Poland’s Adam Roszkowski, marking his remarkable consistency across the five grueling events. While Roszkowski only won one event, his performance across all categories proved enough to secure the win.

Event 1: Bus Pull — Dominance in Raw Power​

The opening event showcased the athletes’ raw pulling power as they dragged a massive bus over 20 meters. The weight of the bus was kept confidential, adding to the mystery of the challenge.

Roszkowski's 6th-place finish (29.62 seconds) set him off to a solid start in the competition.

Event 2: Front Hold — The True Test of Endurance​

Event 3: Loading Race — Speed and Strength Combined​

The Loading Race saw the athletes transport three heavy implements (120-kg, 140-kg, and 160-kg) over a distance of 10 meters and load them onto a platform. The event demanded a combination of speed, grip strength, and endurance.

Event 4: Log Lift — An Exhibition of Upper Body Strength​

The fourth event, the Log Lift, required athletes to press a 140-kg log overhead as many times as possible within 60 seconds. This event tested not only upper body strength but also the athletes’ ability to maintain form and endurance under intense pressure.

Top Performers:

  • Brian Kichton — 7 reps

Roszkowski shared second place, maintaining his top-tier performance across all events.

Event 5: Atlas Stone Medley — The Iconic Strongman Finale​

The final event of the day was the iconic Atlas Stone Medley. The athletes had to lift and load five stones ranging from 130 kg to 200 kg, with the time limit set at 75 seconds. This event tested full-body strength, with a focus on grip, lower body power, and back strength.

Roszkowski’s Winning Formula: Consistency Over Flashy Wins​

Adam Roszkowski’s victory in Cyprus was a masterclass in consistency.
