On this episode, I have my second sit down with Ken of Cerberus Strength. I saw Ken share a post on his social media that he was struggling with his identity. He competed at a high level in strongman for many years. It was a huge part of his life. Eventually, as other aspects of life came into the fray, coupled with injuries that had accumulated from pushing so hard for so long, the fire that once motivated him to train and compete wasn't there anymore. He and I talk about the valuable lessons we've learned over the years of burning the candle at both ends, and sometimes in the middle. The power of reflection, community, purpose, and basically realizing that there's more to life than just being an athlete. There are also many other ways we can still contribute to the strength community through other endeavors.

On this episode I sit down w my lady, Jenny, otherwise known as @themusclemom. Similar to other guests we spend the first portion of the episode learning more about Jen's story. How she originally got involved in athletics as a young girl, from gymnastics, to soccer, to tennis, to group classes, to endurance/ obstacle races, to the barbell, and eventually to competing in both Crossfit and Strongman. She also speaks on her career as a blogger, writer, group x instructor, nutrition coach, personal trainer, and group ex coordinator here at The TOP Strength Project. Her and I then share our similar and emotional perspectives on my most recent strongman competition, 2024 USS Nationals and everything leading up to it. She is an enormous and irreplaceable contributor here at the gym, my biggest supporter, and greatest source of motivation. Enjoy!

we talk with Tim Kovach and Sue Metcalf, the promoters for the 2021 USS nationals held on June 5th in Minnesota.

USS Masters Pro Strongman Darren Zola is a three-time World’s Strongest Man competitor and has finished as high as second in the USS Nationals. Darren was an avid hunter and all-around outdoorsman until he decided to take a break from outdoors sports to pursue his passion for strength and getting the most out of his…Read More Read More

Dan started his athletic pursuits in the martial arts world earning his way to instructor levels in 3 martial arts, culminating in a 4-0 kickboxing and a 9-2 MMA career. Once he retired from competitive martial arts he found CrossFit and opened CrossFit Thrive. Through that he stumbled into Strongman and Powerlifting. Dan realized that strength sports were a better fit than fitness. So he sold CrossFit Thrive and dove all in taking 11th as an undersized Open Heavyweight at USS Nationals and in 2016 he placed 4th at IPL Worlds. Currently he coaches online powerlifting and strongman teams. His focus for 2019 is strongman and plans on dominating at nationals in the 265 and 275 classes.

Laura Anderson is a strongman competitor in Raleigh NC. Among some of her achievements in strongman include: 2016 National Champion LW (Strongman Corp) 2017 2nd place USS Nationals   She also has an Undergrad in Business Administration/Computer Information Systems, finished a Paralegal Graduate Program, and currently working towards a Master of Arts in Apologetics. Here's a bit of the discussion:   What do you love about strongman? I love the technical aspects and the strategy involved. There’s a limit to how big and strong we can get, but it’s fun to see people overcome physical disadvantages to become strong competitors.   Is it considered strongman or strongwoman? Strongman   What are your goals in competing in Strongman? I’ve never had any. I just want to meet people and go places.   Regarding Apologetics, Pressup or Classical/Evidential and why? Largely evidential with a presuppositional slant. Is that a thing?

Welcome to Strong Woman Radio, a sanctuary free of testosterone (except for a few special guests), where ladies who like to lift heavy things can chitchat about the struggles and success that comes with being a woman in a male dominated sport. We welcome listeners of all sports, be it strongman, Crossfit, olympic lifting or more; but be warned we don't like running very much unless we are carrying or dragging something heavy while we do it. DON'T FORGET TO download, subscribe to and listen to the previous episodes! And as you get familiar with the show, leave those reviews and ratings in iTunes, and send us your questions and comments via the comment form, which can be found here.  Enjoy the show and lift on ladies! Episode 52, Vivian's USS Nationals RecapIntro (0:00) Latest & Greatest (1:16)Vivian survived her whole trip traveling from home to Louisville and back all by herself with no backup at all! When Stacy competes, she brings a giant entourage of support, so going alone seems so daunting Vivian was staying at the same hotel as the people attending the Muhammed Ali funeral, too! Vivian's friend Glenda was selling Lularoe at the show as well. The hardest part for Stacy was that there was no feed on Instagram or Facebook so no one could follow along! Vivian did exactly what she planned on doing in each event. She finished second in the show! The winner was much, much bigger than Vivian, but that's how super heavyweight (200+) goes. Most women in the class are going to be taller and weigh more than Vivian. See the comparison here. Samantha Coleman, the winner, is a world record holding powerlifter. She's new to Strongman, so we look forward to seeing her at Worlds! Vivian feels so much less stress now that she's no longer defending champion. The hardest event for her was the fingal fingers, which she was unable to train on. Overall, the event was a lot of "cardio" because of all the reps and all the moving events. Huge event! 314 people competed overall! Vivian was only 3 points from first, and now feels like last year wasn't a fluke. Unfortunately, Sarah from Primal Bites was injured and couldn't make it to the show. Stacy finally got her MRI and so hopefully is closer to recovery! Kalle Beck's seminar was last week as well. The Rock, Dwayne Johnson eat 2.3 pounds of cod per day, according to his diet report. Or 821 pounds per year. Vivian is now deciding if she should cut 20 pounds to get under the heavyweight limit for her next show. Jen Sinkler is coming to the east coast! Stacy and Viv are planning on stalking her. See her on Snapchat! Go see Vivian at LoCo Crossfit on July 2 for a Strongman seminar as well! Stacy and Viv are looking into how to get rid of clothes they no longer use, especially their Lularoe and workout clothes. Wesley wants to create his own version of Batdad. Coming soon because we can't figure it our yet! Not to sound like a douche, but Stacy is good at almost everything. But she'll throw a temper tantrum if she finds something she's not good at. Ricky Bobby: If you're not first, you're last! Miss Congeniality playing the cups Outro (36:01)
