“I won the 2017 Arnold Strongman Classic! Thank you to all my sponsors @isatori_inc @mbslingshot @roguefitness @getnewage @probodycoach to my family, friends, training partners, and everyone else that helped me to win this contest! I scored 47.5 points out of a possible 50 even dealing with a couple small injuries and I couldn’t be more proud of my performance under the circumstances! Thank you for all of the support and now it’s time to focus on winning my 5th World’s Strongest Man title! #shawstrength #gigantor #worldsstrongestman #worldsstrongestman #begreat.”
It’s unreal to think that he dominated such a strong field with some niggling injuries! The man is truly one of the greats, and like other greats of any sport, the focus is on the next goal.
