Event One — Log Press Challenge
The 2025 World’s Strongest Woman started off with the Log Press Challenge. Therefore, the athletes got to pick between lifting 195-lb (88.5-kg), 225-lb (102-kg), and 250-lb (113.5-kg) for as many reps as possible. However, even just one repetition with the heavier log ranked higher than any number of reps with the lighter one.
Andrea Thompson held the Log Lift World Record at one point in her career, which made her the frontrunner for the win in the opening event of the competition. As expected, she picked up the heaviest log and proceeded to lock out four repetitions. This turned out to be the winning number, allowing Andrea to get off to an early lead.

Event Three — Deadlift Ladder
The third event brought the deadlift exercise. Specifically, the competitors had to perform a series of four deadlifts. The weight of the bars was 495-lb (224.5-kg), 525-lb (238.1-kg), 565-lb (256.3-kg), and 600-lb (272.2-kg). The main goal was to reach the end, but the athletes were then ranked based on the time needed to perform a certain number of reps.
Andrea Thompson put in another dominant performance, showcasing tremendous pulling power, great transitions, and perfect technique. She was the only athlete to complete the entire event, as the majority of the roster struggled to pull 600 pounds (272.2 kilograms). So, Andrea extended her overall lead.
Allira-Joy Cowley was exceptionally quick, having cruised through the first few deadlifts but then got stuck on the final bar. So, Cowley finished in second place with a time of 27.22 seconds to complete three lifts. Ally Latemore was 2 seconds slower than Cowley and placed third.
- Andrea Thompson — 4 in 20.36 seconds
- Allira-Joy Cowley — 3 in 27.22 seconds

It consisted of two sandbags weighing 225 pounds (102 kilograms) and 250 pounds (113.4 kilograms), both of which had to be carried for 25 feet and then loaded over a 42-inch-high beam. Time was used as the separator once again.
Only two athletes managed to complete the entire event and Allira-Joy Cowley was by far the quickest one. She needed just 47.76 seconds to carry and load the sandbags, which marked another impressive result for her at the competition.
Jackie Osczevski managed to break into second place with a time of 51.16 seconds. Katie Blunden rounded up the top three as the quickest athlete to complete three quarters of the event.
- Allira-Joy Cowley — 4 in 47.76 seconds
- Jackie Osczevski — 4 in 51.16 seconds
- Katie Blunden — 3 in 33.23 seconds
- Patricia Smit — 3 in 51.61 seconds

- Nadia Stowers — 1 in 14.30 seconds
- Jackie Rhodes — 1 in 35.87 seconds
- Destiney Bass — 1 in 51.50 seconds
Event Five — Mammoth Circus Dumbbell Ladder
The second-to-last challenge of the 2025 World’s Strongest Woman was the Dumbbell Ladder. Similar to an earlier deadlift event, the athletes had to lift four implements once again. So, they had to overhead press 110-lb (49.9-kg), 120-lb (54.4-kg), 140-lb (63.5-kg), and 160-lb (72.6-kg). The time limit was set to one minute.
Being an overhead pressing event, Andrea Thompson found herself at the top of the leaderboards once again. In a near-identical scenario to the Log Challenge, Andrea was once again the only woman that managed to lift all implements that she faced. So, she secured another convincing event win.
Jackie Rhodes secured a very impressive second-place finish in the Dumbbell Ladder, managing to lock out three implements in 26.17 seconds. Katie Blunden finished third, lifting the last implement five seconds after Booker.
- Andrea Thompson — 4 in 39.25 seconds
- Jackie Rhodes — 3 in 26.17 seconds

Event Six — Stix and Stone ‘Natural’ Stone Series
The Strongwomen concluded the 2025 World’s Strongest Woman with a Stone Series. In turn, they had to lift four implements over a 42-inch-high beam. The weight of the implements came out to 225-lb (102.1-kg), 250-lb (113.4-kg), 275-lb (124.7-kg), and 300-lb (136.1-kg).
The final event of the competition proved to be extremely difficult for the women, as seen by the fact that no one managed to complete it. However, Allira Joy Cowley won the event, being the fastest athlete to lift two sandbags. She recorded a time of 11.49 seconds, while the next quickest woman, Patricia Smit, needed nearly double the time to replicate the feat.

Why did you not mention the winner was trans? Jammie is biologically a man, so all the hardworking women who trained for years and competed in this event were effectively cheated. Strongman needs to change their rules so trans people don’t have an unfair advantage in the sport.
Thank you for sharing your concerns and insight regarding the competitor. I have reviewed the information and have updated the article accordingly.
Everyone’s saying transpeople shouldn’t be allowed in Strongman/Strongwomen, or minimally have a strongtrans category. But if those bigots are right then everyone would have to get tested like in the olympics and all XX gendered women who use T would have to complete as transmen, along with many of those who have pcos and other medical conditions. So if we remove this years worlds strongest women from eligibility then we should look into removing the previous years title for having too high of levels of testosterone.
Thanks for making sure women no longer have a space. Women’s sports are now dominated by men. Trans feelings are greater than women’s rights.
Congratulations jammie. Must take a hell of a lot of testosterone to step up against those females that have worked their entire life to get where they’re at today. Andrea Thompson is the rightful winner, not you.
