2022 World’s Strong Man Event List Revealed: Includes Return Of Car Walk, Bus Pull
The 2022 World’s Strongest Man Competition will feature some classic events from the past.
The 2022 World’s Strongest Man competition is scheduled for May 24-29 at the Capitol Mall in Sacramento. The full lineup of competitors has been revealed and now, there is a lineup of events.
On Wednesday, the 2022 WSM event list came out and it features some returning classic from year’s past with new events. This year’s event will feature the first-ever Deadlift Ladder and Wrecking Ball Hold. In this particular event, athletes must get a massive wrecking ball off the ground and hold it for as long as they can. Fans will also enjoy the return of the Bus Pull and Car Walk.
This will be a five-day event in total. The first three days of the week will be qualifiers with the following two days being finals to decide the winner. A breakdown of some of the top events can be found below, along with the event schedule and list of competitors.
Atlas Stones
Atlas Stones have become known as the signature event during the WSM competition. This event began in 1986 where athletes are required to lift five heavy, circular stones onto platforms spanning from 100 to 160kg. The platforms go from 16-feet high to 33 feet.
The progression of this event has become more difficult for strongmen over time. When it was initially introduced, the platforms were waist high but have since gotten higher and the stones have increased in weight.
Bus Pull
This will bring back the vehicle pull in the form of Bus Pull at the WSM competition where competitors will have to move a Sacramento Regional Transit Bus weighing about 40,000 pounds in a race against time.
The overall vehicle pull was introduced in 1977. Over the years, the vehicles have included trams, buses, boxcars, and planes. This is where athletes pull the monstrous machine on a 100-foot course by hand as quick as they can.
Car Walk
During this event, athletes will strap a vintage Volkswagen bug to their shoulders and race down a 25-meter course. This is another timed event to see who can complete the course in the fastest time.
In the past, strongmen have made this event look much easier than it actually is. This is an event that combines leg strength to lift and keep the car off the ground with upper body strength to keep the car steady in the arm. The car must remained balanced so the tires do not hit the floor.
Power Stairs
Power stairs combines power and speed as competitors must carry massive amounts of weight up stairs to complete the course.
These items usually range from 182-273kg in weight and must be lifted to the top of the stairs. Athletes must be in shape to show stamina while using speed to take down other competitors and explosive power to go from stair to stair.
Loading Race
This event is exactly what it sounds like. Competitors have to lift different items weighing between 250 and 500 pounds and load them on platforms. This is a timed event where the strongman who can finish in the quickest time will win.
In the past, items such as sandbags, lobster pots, masts, beer kegs, wine casks have been the weight needing to be moved. The overall weight of the objects is on the lighter side for strongmen but all objects are awkward in shape, which makes them difficult to pick up and control.
Deadlift Ladder
Deadlifts are one of the biggest lifts in powerlifting and strongman. The Deadlift Ladder consists of different bars that go up in weight from 650 to 750 pounds.
This is the first time that this event will be featured in the WSM competition. Medleys have been part of strongman competitions where athletes have to manage their strength and energy in order to make it from beginning to end.

Charles Glass Warns About Uncertain PEDs: ‘You’re Taking Something Totally Different That’s Going To Mess You Up’
Charles Glass recently spoke on the uncertainty of certain PEDs out there.
Charles Glass is one of the pioneers of bodybuilding. In retirement, he has built a reputation as an elite bodybuilding coach because of his intense workout programs and attention to detail. Glass always brings different insights and wisdom to his workouts and recently, he did the same regarding PED use.
Glass took some time to discuss the angers of PEDs and it is not what many others have said. It is clear that steroid use has negatively impacted athletes and their bodies over the years. There has been a recent string of deaths that has hit the world hard. This includes Shawn Rhoden and George Peterson at the end of 2021. Recently, Cedric McMillan passed away suddenly.
The effect that PEDs have on internal organs is clear but Glass continued to explain how athletes might not even know what they are putting in their bodies. He explains that it is important to be able to correctly identify a product. This has become more and more difficult.
“There’s more counterfeit drugs out. There’s more fake drugs out. You think you’re taking this, and you’re not taking that. You’re taking something totally different that’s going to mess you up,” Charles Glass said.
Charles Glass goes over the process that athletes take to find the right PEDs. In some cases, bodybuilders will opt for a cheaper version of the drug, even if they do not exactly know what is in it. When it is cheap, Glass explains that it comes from underground labs that are interested in making money.
“Why would you take it, you don’t know what’s in there but if you by testosterone for $30, and this guy sells it for $50, who you going to buy it from? The $30 person because it’s cheaper. It doesn’t mean it’s good, but it’s cheaper.”
The sport of bodybuilding is now judging which competitors can come in with the most size and mass while remaining conditioned. The Men’s Open competitors are larger than life in today’s era and this is because they want to put on as much size as possible.
Charles Glass believes that building size on the body over time is healthier than those who want to get the fastest result possible.
“Take your time, build slow, let it happen. You gotta understand I was a gymnast in college. I was already strong. I wasn’t even taking no drugs and I was able to lift heavy. Well, considering how much I weigh, heavy.
The thing of it is, I would say about thirty or mid to late thirties is when you start seeing performance because when I got in, I could bench 425 lbs without anything. But it went to 500 (lbs) when I was taking it you know, that’s the difference. Yeah, but I weighed a 138 lbs and I could lift 425 (lbs) easy but people told me you got to gain weight, you got to gain weight. So, in my mind, well if I can get to 155 lbs I’ll be better. I got to 155 (lbs) and my strength went up.”
This recent string of deaths in bodybuilding has made others speak out on the issues as well. This has become a problem and one that many believe must be fixed, whether it is safer practices or better recognition of the drugs. Charles Glass believes it starts with where the drugs come from.

Nick Walker and Hunter Labrada Look Massive in Impressive Updates
Nick Walker and Hunter Labrada are looking massive.
Nick Walker and Hunter Labrada recently revealed some impressive physique updates. The two rival bodybuilders are poised to be the next generation of talent in the Open Bodybuilding division and are pushing themselves to prove it.
The future of bodybuilding Nick Walker and Hunter Labrada are both hard at work adding muscle to their frames. Both men plan on bringing their best to the 2022 Olympia stage and look ready to do just that.
Next Generation Mass Monster
There’s no doubt about it, Nick Walker is the very epitome of mass monster. With a moniker like mutant muscle it’s always been clear what look Walker has aimed for. He has put on some considerable size during his off season, all while doing his best to maintain a slimmer waist.
With so many believing he didn’t get top honors at the 2021 Olympia because of his midsection, Nick Walker is hard at work making improvements. Walker has been putting up even heavier numbers than ever before and shows no sign of letting up.
His recent updates show that he’s extra motivated.
Post workout posing- front double and back double!!!
Very happy with the progress being made but still plenty of more To go!!!!!
Second Coming of Labrada
Hunter Labrada is certainly the second coming of his father. Lee Labrada was the epitome of classic posing in bodybuilding and he passed this on to his son. The younger Labrada has adapted the classic style with a more modern bodybuilding aesthetic. His massive muscle combined with the fluid movement of his posing sets him apart from many of his modern counterparts.
While Nick Walker may be the quintessential mass monster of this generation, Hunter Labrada is by no means a small fry. With a generous amount of muscle on his frame himself, Labrada will not be outsized when they next cross paths on stage.
His most recent update showcases some truly impressive muscle. Hunter Labrada says he’s weighing between 279-286 lbs depending on whether he’s fasted or not.
Titan is clearly unimpressed.
Couple shots from today after training push! Fasted weight is hovering between 279-280 and post training has been 285-286. This is the heaviest I’ve ever been in my life (by 8 pounds) and far from the fattest I’ve been.
Stoked to have roughly 5 more months of improvement season before we head into the ⭕️ prep.
What do you think of Nick Walker and Hunter Labrada in their recent updates?

PNBA Natural Bodybuilder Ben Howard Says Over-Dieting in Bodybuilding Is Unhealthy
Image via Instagram @ben_howard_ukdfba_pro
PNBA natural bodybuilder Ben Howard describes the severe health consequences he suffered after over-dieting for a bodybuilding show.
Strict diets are standard in bodybuilding, especially as bodybuilding shows approach. Unfortunately, rigorous nutrition can place your body under a lot of stress and cause many problems. Professional Natural Bodybuilding Association (PNBA) and World Natural Bodybuilding Federation (WNBF) natural bodybuilder Ben Howard was on the Longevity Muscle Podcast and discussed how over-dieting for a competition could lead to severe health issues.
Over-Dieting Health Consequences
Howard said in WNBF shows that he would cut weight to make the lightweight division. However, he admitted that it was his choice to be the heaviest lightweight in the class rather than competing as a healthier, lighter, middleweight contender. Although he had great success in competitions (Pro Lightweight World Champion), his health suffered. Howard stated:
“You get to a point to where you’re dieting for a show that your body starts to fight back a little bit. Sleep starts to suffer. Your hormones definitely take a dip. Your strength starts to diminish. You start to lose muscle mass.
You are obsessed with food. Food focus is really high. Fatigue is through the roof. Then if you’re 5 pounds over the stage weight, you got to keep going.”
Howard described what happened the 6-12 months after over-dieting for a show, despite winning and being a world champion. He gained 40-50 lbs in six weeks, couldn’t control his eating habits, and couldn’t get his sleep back on track. Moreover, he became overweight and had to take three years off from competing to reset his body.
Howard praises not having to cut weight for PNBA shows for making the sport of natural bodybuilding healthier since just an extra five pounds can make a world of difference.
3 Days a Week Training Frequency
During the Longevity Muscle Podcast, Howard touched on several other subjects, including why he only trains three days a week—according to Howard, lifting three days a week works best for his body. So after a day of heavy squatting, deadlifting, or pressing, he takes a day off. Any more, and he feels like he loses the quality of the movement.
Howard also attributes his three-day training regimen to not having to take time off or implement deload weeks. However, guys doing more volume during the week (4-6 days of training) will have to for recovery.
Importance of Deadlifts and Volume
In addition, Ben Howard talked about how deadlifts are your posterior chain’s bread and butter movement. Howard claimed that even targeting his arms between deadlift and squat days will affect his recovery progress, though. He believes it still places too much stress on your body and joints.
Ben Howard says he focuses on lower volume with deadlifts and squats instead of a lot of training volume. And he doesn’t believe his back would look the way it does if it weren’t for years of deadlifting.
Natural Olympia Goal
In the podcast, Howard clarified his end goal in natural bodybuilding. Howard affirmed:
“My goal is clear, it’s absolutely clear. I want to be competing on that Natural Olympia, the pinnacle of natural bodybuilding and my goal is now to win the Natural Olympia.”
The clip below shows Ben Howard disclosing his ultimate natural bodybuilding plans – win the Pinnacle of Natural Bodybuilding – Natural Olympia.

Benzino To Fight Aaron Carter After Failing To Lure 50 Cent Into Match
Benzino did his best to set up a fight with 50 Cent but was unsuccessful.
It looks as though Benzino will have a fight set up in the ring but not exactly with who he wanted. The Love & Hip Hop star has been attempting to get 50 Cent to box him but has been unsuccessful. Instead, he will have to settle for a match with Aaron Carter.
TMZ learned of this arrangement from Celebrity Boxing’s Damon Feldman. The contract has been signed by both men and the fight is scheduled for June 11 at the Charles Dodge Center in Pembroke Pines, FL. There is no exact word on how this fight will be structured.
It is clear that Benzino and 50 Cent have had their issues for awhile now. This includes calling each other snitches when it comes to federal issues. Benzino has called out the rapper but has not gotten the outcome that he wanted. Now, Carter is stepping in on behalf of one of his favorite rappers.
Aaron Carter shared a video on Instagram once this fight was announced.
“Why would you make fun and pick at one of my favorite rappers, 50 Cent. Why would you do that, huh?
“I will meet you in the ring and we can dance and we can have fun. it will be so much fun, right? this is a legend so don’t call yourself a legend. Nobody believes it, you little cry baby.”
This will be the first celebrity boxing match involving Benzino while Carter has competed before. In his first and only match to this point, Carter was knocked out by Lamar Odom in the first round. Carter has remained active on social media and believes he will have an edge in this match.
“A message to BENZINO let’s dance! I fought a giant and ended up with three concussions and was still standing! I’m curious to see how this plays out…. I had the BIGGEST celebrity boxing match EVER w @celebrityboxing1 and Damon So you’re lucky I’m even giving you this platform. MY LAST POST WAS REMOVED but you CANT remove me!! I’m back and this time it’s gonna hurt. @celebrityboxing1 I’ll be waiting for my contract. Have a blessed day ?,” aaron carter wrote on instagram.
Aaron Carter believes that his match with Odom will put him in an advantageous position. Benzino will have a chance to get a fight under his belt just in case 50 Cent ever wants to step in the ring. To this point, it seems unlikely.

Breon Ansley Shares High Volume Back Workout Ahead of Tampa Pro
Breon Ansley is working hard to earn his spot at the Olympia.
Days out from the 2022 Tampa Pro two-time Classic Physique Olympia champion Breon Ansley shares his high volume back training routine. With hopes of earning his way onto the Olympia stage, Ansley is working hard and digging deep.
Arnold Classic 2022 Performance
Unfortunately the former reigning Classic Physique Olympia champion couldn’t get back on track as hoped. Breon Ansley was once the most feared man in the Classic Physique division. Now he has been regulated to being third or fourth in the category.
Chris Bumstead and Terrence Ruffin both appear to have firmly cemented their position over Ansley. Ruffin would once again take top honors at the 2022 Arnold Classic while Ansley took third. But despite his performance, Breon Ansley isn’t done with the Classic Physique division quite yet.
Working Back
With just days to go before the 2022 Breon Ansley has shared some of the training he’s been incorporating ahead of the show. From the details it appears that Ansley is leaving nothing to chance.
Hoping to redeem himself at the Tampa Pro, Breon Ansley has doubled down on making gains for the show. Hoping to show he still has what it takes to compete with the best of the best, Ansley is showing supreme dedication in his prep.
“These next two weeks specifically we are not gonna go too heavy, really focus on a lot of volume and a lot of pace and then that third week is gonna be… We’re going to maybe lower the reps and get a little bit more heavier and really grind that out on the heavy side a little bit.”
“There is many phases throughout the prep. So you’ve got to be in tune with what’s going on, you got to really check the balances a lot on a day-to-day basis because things change…”
The full back workout included the following:
Pull-ups
Bent-over dumbbell rows
Lat pull-downs
Bent-over rope pull-downs
Wide grip seated cable rows
Incline back extensions
You can see full details of his training here.
Do you think Breon Ansley can turn back the hands of time?

Jay Cutler Speaks On Cedric McMillan’s Legacy: ‘One Of The Best Physiques We Have Seen In Quite Some Time’
Jay Cutler reflects on Cedric McMillan’s time in bodybuilding and how special his physique was.
It has been a couple weeks now since the bodybuilding world lost another legend in Cedric McMillan. This is another death that has hit the sport hard and many have been remembering McMillan in different ways. Jay Cutler spoke on his podcast about the legacy that McMillan built on stage and how he will be remembered.
On a recent episode of Cutler Cast, the bodybuilding legend spoke on his time spent with McMillan during his prime.
“He was a big figurehead in our industry and he was someone people looked upon. And He was one of the big aesthetic guys and probably one of the best physiques we have seen in quite some time. It’s just always very hard to peak perfect. I remember when I saw him in the Nationals, I just said like this guy could be like the next Ronnie Coleman.”
Jay Cutler made comparisons for Cedric McMillan to Ronnie Coleman early in his career. This is a competitor that Cutler knows very well given their own history. In 2006, Cutler won his first Olympia title, ending Coleman’s eight-year reign as champion on the biggest stage.
Cutler continued to speak on the sport of bodybuilding and the recent string of deaths. Shawn Rhoden and George Peterson passed away at the end of 2021 and these were other instances where the sport was shaken up.
There are many competitors who have won the Olympia and found themselves at the top of bodybuilding at age 30 and 40. Cutler believes that bodybuilding is a young man’s game.
“I’m just gonna state what my thought on all this is, okay. I’ve said it before. You know bodybuilding used to be a young man’s game… Chris Dickerson won Mr. Olympia at around 40. Obviously, we saw Shawn Rhoden win (Mr. Olympia) at 43. There’s not to say you can’t do it. But is it suggestive to be a competitive bodybuilder on that level into your 40s? I think not.”
Jay Cutler put together one of the best bodybuilding careers of all-time. He has maintained an elite physique in retirement but does not believe competitors should maintain this championship physique preparing for competition.
“Not to say that it’s bad to get ready for a bodybuilding competition but the professional top tier, Mr. Olympia level, I’m not so sure about it.
Two or three Olympias I’m like, ‘why do I do this?’ It shouldn’t be like that. You’re the best in the world at what you do. I was trying to defend the title and I was dehydrated to the point where my mind just wasn’t there. It was always the dehydration process that was the hardest for me.”
Jay Cutler has been open about PED use in retirement and believes that athletes should get blood work done regularly. This is a way to make sure that bodybuilders are healthy and if not, they know what needs to be improved.

Joe Rogan Defends Mike Tyson Punching “Annoying” Passenger On Plane: ‘You Probably Earned It’
Joe Rogan recently shared his opinion on Mike Tyson’s incident on the plane and it matches many other popular stances.
Mike Tyson made headlines on Thursday after repeatedly punching a passenger that was sitting behind him on a flight. After watching the videos of the incident, many sided with Iron Mike as the man is seen bothering Tyson constantly. Joe Rogan recently hopped on board defending Tyson.
During the videos, released by TMZ, the man is seen leaning over Tyson’s seat saying something. Tyson verbally warned the man to stop but he did not listen. Later, Tyson’s reps claimed that the man threw a water bottle at Tyson while being intoxicated. This is the reason many have spoken in defense of Tyson and believe the man was in the wrong.
During an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, the podcast host spoke on how “annoying” the man was and he earned what he got.
“That dude was a douche bag. He was annoying one of the baddest motherfu**rs that’s ever walked the face of the earth. That’s so dumb. That’s not even kicking a beehive, that’s like headbutting a beehive,” Joe Rogan said.
“If you find yourself and Mike Tyson’s reaching over the back of an airline seat and he’s punching you in the face, I think you probably earned it. I think you probably earned it. The guy was super annoying man. It’s like people get crazy.”
This is becoming a trend where fans believe that athletes and celebrities will not fire back because of who they are. In today’s age of social media, there are many instances where athletes are seen going back at fans who have either said insulting things or even throwing items.
This is an issue Joe Rogan addressed. He explains how these athletes and celebrities are people as well and will take action if needed.
“They think just because he’s Mike Tyson, he’s famous, he can’t just punch you but you’re annoying him. He’s going to just f***ing hit you like a normal person would.”
Mike Tyson returned to the ring for one final fight in 2020 against Roy Jones Jr. He is a retired boxer with some of the best hands of all-time. In retirement, Tyson has started his own podcast and remains active, both in the gym and the media.
This is another instance where a fan is provoking an athlete not expecting any repercussions. It is becoming common where fans are crossing boundaries with athletes and it is not always wrong for the athletes to take action just because they are famous.

PNBA Natural Bodybuilder Derek Joe Compares In-Season Vs Off-Season Physique
Image via Instagram @djoe.hype
PNBA Natural Olympia Classic Physique champ Derek Joe compares his onstage body with his off-season physique.
Bodybuilders don’t walk around with the same physique year-round. Most of the year, the shredded body they have when posing on stage during a show is much different from their off-season physique. Professional Natural Bodybuilder Associaton (PNBA) Natural Olympia Classic Physique champ Derek Joe shared a post on social media to compare his physique before a competition and when he’s bulking.
Derek Joe is a multi-media contracted athlete who won the Classic Physique category at 2021 Natural Olympia. On April 16, 2022, Derek Joe shared photos of himself on Instagram, comparing his physique a couple of days before his first competition in 2021 to when he was at his heaviest weight this year after bulking. Derek Joe stated:
“The picture on the left is of me last year two days before the first show of the season at 162-164 lbs.
The picture on the right is while I was near the top of my bulk this year, around 204 lbs. I’ve been fluctuating between 199-202 lbs for the last six weeks.”
Joe is undergoing a 20-week prep for the INBA PNBA Natural Universe show in Tampa, Florida, September 2-3, 2022. Joe says that his ideal stage weight will be around 170-175 pounds, but he mentions that it will ultimately depend on how he looks as the competition approaches.
Below you can see Derek Joe’s complete statement and physique comparison.

Bodybuilder’s Body Fat In-Season Vs. Off-Season Physique
Of course, bodybuilders have extremely low body fat levels as they compete onstage. It’s not sustainable to maintain these body fat percentages year-round, though. Bodybuilders must go through a bulking phase to build muscle during the off-season. Also, it’s not healthy to have too low body fat levels. 3x Natural Olympia Classic Physique champ Brandon Lirio says, “you need to be able to say goodbye to the abs and let your hormones rebalance and gain.”
According to ACE, essential body fat for men and women is 2-5% (men) and 10-13% (women). When bodybuilders are in-season, they have rigorous diet and training protocols to keep them hovering around these essential levels. That’s why their weight will fluctuate drastically throughout the year. For example, Derek Joe is 40 pounds lighter in the photo on the left compared to the image on the right above. And as you can see, his body fat percentage is drastically higher during the off-season.
Nutrition
Of course, bodybuilders’ diets play a crucial role in the low body fat levels they can get down to. Competitive bodybuilders maintain a pretty rigorous diet all year, but they’re more flexible during the offseason than during the season. On the other hand, their nutrition is extremely strict during the season, as you’d imagine.
For example, carb cycling is a popular dieting method some bodybuilders will utilize to shred fat. Carb cycling consists of low-carb days, which forces your body to burn fat as fuel.
Recap
Bodybuilders’ physique varies throughout the year depending on if they’re in-season or off-season. Competitors will have extremely low body fat percentages before a show. However, they’ll bulk during the off-season to build more muscle and balance their hormones.
