Giving a special shout out to the TSI strongmen and women today!
This past weekend we had multiple athletes compete in the WHEA Strongman & Strongwoman World Championship’s right here in Paradise, NL!
A massive congrats to the following athletes!
Marie Sheppard who took 2nd place in the Jr Women’s category.
Amy and Lisa Sheppard who took 2nd and 3rd respectively in the 40+ 75kg+ Master’s category.
Keelin Tucker for getting 2nd in the U65kg women’s category.
Samantha Dalley for winning the yoke event in her class, getting 2nd on the max dumbbell and 2nd on the keg loading event.
Emma Bridgeman for having an excellent contest and taking 2nd place in the open womens division.
Jason Langdon walked away with multiple PR’s and proved to himself that through hard work and belief he is worthy of competing at the 50+ world’s level in WHEA.
Our out of province buddy and Cave Crew regular, Adam Dickson walked away with massive PR on the yoke, carrying a staggering 880lbs for 15-20’!!
Trevor Rideout who improved his placing from 6th last year in York, England to 3rd this year in Paradise, NL! Trev walked away with an astounding CDB press of 185 getting him 2nd that event and a gutsy performance on the 800lb yoke!
Aside from our full time members above we would also like to extend our congrats to our extended strongman family who also get the occasional event session in at TSI!
Congrats to Jordan Stuart who dominated the U100 category and became a world champion in the presence of his friends, family and little man, Abram. Jordan also had some athletes and fellow competitors do quite well this weekend!
Steve Knee who had a hard fought battle with an injured bicep and STILL managed 2nd in the u100 40+ masters division.
Charles Hann who despite injuring himself in the yoke event was able to pull out of the final event and still manage a 2nd place podium finish.
Grab some rest folks! You all deserve it!
Nothing makes us happier than being able to support our local athletes here at TSI!!
