			<description>Every day I'm updating my Muscle, Strength and Power News blog I'm finding some real gems. This one, from the Real Dutch Power site, caught my eye.







You have a well known but now almost elder statesman (but obviously still a bit of a bull) Wout Zijlstra and buddy Jan Wagenaar pulling what the site says was a 100,000 kilo (100mt) combo (see set up below) as part of a truck pulling event (the rest of the lads used the heavy tractor unit) at 'Truckfest 2009' in Holland. I liked it. Enjoy.

			<description>World Strongest Women Championship 2009

March or April, 2009. UAE/Dubai



Elizabeth got her invite for this a few weeks ago, but with the dates and all the armwrestling comps ahead it will probably be a no-goer for her.

This is going to be run by Nansi fathollahi, who is a public relation of WSF &amp; ASF Federation &amp; Director Manager of Asia Strongwomen Federation. I've not heard of these before. These are not the same people as last years comp in Poland. </description>

			<description>Anyone heard of this style of athlete ordering?  It is new to me!



At the upcoming Sydney's strongest man, they presented a list of athletes and said 'that's your order for EACH and EVERY event' regardless of how well you do.

Basically, placing 1st at one event is not rewarded by going last at the folowing event.



After much complaining, they changed it to this (see below) .  Worth noting that they are not using it for the pro's - who will go with the usual placing system. (you win  ...</description>

I took a step back from running grip comps and have had a go at putting on a strongman event instead.



I got one sponsor, arranged the venue,  and picked the events etc.  



But I then got very lucky and the gym owner (Tony Doherty) and Bill Lyndon went (at least) one step further and have managed to get Derek Boyer (Australia's Strongest man) to guest and have got additional sponsers.



Derek is also 'Thunder' from Gladiators which was recently on tv here with a new format.

As a new and hopefully interesting section I added the &quot;Strict Curl&quot; to my website.



Over the last months I found out while researching that there are so many different and confusing rules that its simply not possible to say that &quot;this or that weight&quot; is a official world record.



Because of that I try to change this and try to bring all Strict Curl interested guys from all over the world together to do and curl their best!
