🚜💥 THE MONSTERS HAVE ARRIVED AT BIG MAKS! 💥🚜

​Forget standard plates—we just dragged PROPER, UNAPOLOGETIC STRONGMAN KIT through the doors.

​Say hello to our brand-new set of massive TRACTOR WHEELS! ⚙️🏋️‍♂️

​Standing at a massive 38 inches tall and weighing in at a brutal 75kg EACH (that’s 150kg total before you even think about putting extra iron on the bar!), these absolute units are built like tanks.

They give you that ultra-high 19-inch pull off the floor (or platform for standard pull) massive axle feel, and a level of pure, rugged aesthetic that makes standard deadlifts look like warm-ups.

​Everyone in the gym has been scrambling to have a play on them today—and let’s just say, grip strength is being tested, lower backs are being forged in fire, and PRs are already falling.

​Drop the commercial gym fluff, get your chalk out, and get yourself down to Big Maks to test your grit against the heavy metal.

💥💥 Real progress isn't an overnight story.💥💥

Sure, hitting a massive PB or having a standout per
formance feels incredible—and trust us, we celebrate those wins loud around here. But the real magic is what happens between day one and today. It’s the consistency, the resilience, and trusting the long journey it takes to get there.

Just look at the evolution in these clips. This isn't just a quick highlight reel; it's weeks, months, and years of our members putting in the relentless work. You're seeing where they started versus where they are now—the early struggles, the quiet grind, and ultimately, the massive breakthroughs that only time and dedication can build.

Whether your goal is to step onto a strongman or powerbuilding platform, or just to become the strongest version of yourself, Big Mak Strength is built to support your whole journey.

No egos. Just pure work, a solid community, and real progress over time

The countdown is officially ON. This October, six of our absolute beasts are heading to the **Official Strongman Games (OSG) Europe**, and we couldn’t be prouder.

Not too bad for a pokey little gym in Wigan, eh? 😉

They say steel sharpens steel, and this lineup proves it: **you become the best because you train with the best.**

Day in and day out, these guys push each other to the absolute limit, and now it’s time to show Europe what Wigan is made of.

Representing the crew:
Kieran, Joe & Dave – Taking over the stacked u80kg class.
Sarah – Bringing the power to the u64kg division.
Amber – Ready to dominate the u73kg class.
Millsy – Showing them how it's done in the Masters

The hard work is being done in the shadows right now. Let’s get behind them as they prep to take on the continent! 🌍💪

🚨 **MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: KAT IS HEADING TO THE WORLD STAGE!** 🚨

Let’s talk about dedication, absolute grit, and crushing your goals.

On August 22nd & 23rd, Big Mak Strength’s very own Kat is heading up to Paisley to compete in the **u57kg Natural World's Strongest Woman**! 🌍💪

To say we are proud is a massive understatement. In only her second year on the natural strongman pathway, Kat has had an absolutely stellar season, proving she belongs right at the top:

* 🏆 **Podium finish** at England's
* 🔥 **4th place** at Europe's
* 🎟️ **Ticket booked** to the Big Dance (Worlds!)

In Her Own Words said:

"I'm just someone who loves to train. I love the grit and the structure and the peace that it brings my quite hectic life! Since I started strongman in 2023 I've always dreamt of going to natural World's and so it feels an enormous acknowledgement of my hard work to have earned a ticket to the big dance!"

Kat, the work you put in day in and day out at the gym is inspiring to everyone around you. You’ve earned every single bit of this success through sheer work ethic and heart.

The whole Big Mak Strength family is standing right behind you. Paisley isn't ready for the storm you're bringing!

**Drop some love in the comments below and let's wish Kat the absolute best of luck as she prepares to take on the world!** 👇👇👇
