[GALLERY + VIDEOS]: Strongmen put on an exhibition for Alberton people at Makro
Strongmen from all different walks of life gave spectators a show of strength that left many in awe.
BROTHERHOOD Strongman showcased their muscles at Makro Alberton on April 28. This was done hand-in-hand with Renault the Glen being the main sponsor.
Strongmen from all different walks of life gave spectators a show of strength that left many in awe. To cheers and encouragements, the Brotherhood Strongman group carried and lifted weights well in excess of a 100kg and made it look easy to boot.
During the event the strongmen exhibited events such as the log press, the farmer’s walk and the seated car pull. All of these events take prodigious strength and a fine-tuned technique to do both quickly and correctly.
The strongmen used this event as a training opportunity and a chance to test their strength. This training is especially important for the strongmen that have their eyes set on the national championships taking place on July 31.
WATCH:
Brotherhood Strongman serves as an introduction for people from various sporting codes into the sport of strongman. Once a month Brotherhood holds an event to introduce and expose the community to the sport.
“Brotherhood believes strongly in empowering the community,” said Peter Mc Gonigle, owner of Prime Spot Marketing who hosted the event and is the driving force behind Brotherhood Strongman.
Not only were the Alberton community treated to the display of strength by these strongmen but were encouraged by the members to try their hand at the various events. People tried their hand at the farmer’s walk and some succeeded with the strongmen supporting them.
