How can I put my strength to work?

You might be wondering how many jobs or hobbies or challenges can put your strength to the test.  There's a lot of interest in strength and being strong is always in demand.  Here is just a partial list of some of the topics I'll cover in the coming months in the Put Your Strength To Work blog:


  • Strength challenges at fairs and carnivals.
  • Basque stone lifting challenges.
  • Manhood stones - overseas and United States versions as well.
  • Oil rig jobs.
  • Meat cutter.
  • Farmers.
  • Hod carrier.
  • Brick layer.
  • Grave digger.
  • Esoteric strength challenges - like closing a heavy-duty torsion spring gripper in exchange for a full tank of fuel. 
  • Grip contests - some with cash prizes.
  • Pro strongman competitions.
  • Stuntman.
  • Performing strongman.
  • Lumberjack.
  • Armwrestling.
  • Bodybuilding.
  • Powerlifting.
  • Personal training.
  • Masseuse.
  • Rodeo.
  • Tug of war.
  • Highland Games.
  • All-round lifting competitions.
There are so many topics that can be covered and I'm excited to finally get started on this project that I've had in the back of my mind for several years. 


Some of the articles will be along the lines of an interview format.  Others will be topics that are very familiar - some I've competed in.  Others I'll have to do some research but that's something I enjoy.
