The first edition of the 2022 World’s Strongest Nation contest took place in Liverpool, England on November 26th. The 2017 World’s Strongest Man, Eddie Hall, led Team UK to victory against their rivals, Team USA, whose captain was Martins Licis. Martins was a late addition to the squad, as Robert Oberst was the initial captain of Team USA.

During the 2022 World’s Strongest Nation contest, there was never a dull moment. The event also featured some amazing performances, despite some unfortunate happenings, such as Eddie Hall‘s injury. Gabi Dixson displayed a level of skill unprecedented in the Hercules Hold event.

In total, eight competitors got to participate in the Hercules Hold — four men and four women. Regardless of the gender, every athlete took on the identical Hercules pillars, meaning that the women held the same weight as men. In this ultimate grip strength test, Gabi Dixson managed to outperform all three Strongwoman athletes, as well as three of the four men’s athletes.

The best time was in possession of none other than the World Record holder in this event, Mark Felix, who managed to hold the pillars for 1:28.35. However, the second-best time was Gabi Dixson’s, as it came out to 1:08.61. With this, she beat the likes of Kevin Faires, Martins Licis, and Gavin Bilton.

  • Gavin Bilton (UK) — 59.75
  • Donna Moore (UK) — 23.47
  • Inez Carrasquillo (USA) — 00.10

Apart from the Giants Live YouTube channel, Gabi Dixson also shared a video of her incredible display of strength on TikTok.

It is apparent that she smiles through the pain, aware of how impressive her performance is. Her song choice over the video also made the footage look even more epic.

As for her career experience, the 2022 World’s Strongest Nation was Gabi Dixson’s fourth major competition. She started competing professionally in 2021, with her debut coming at the World’s Strongest Woman contest, where she placed fifth. Gabi then competed at the 2022 Beerstone and got an impressive silver medal. In addition, she once again competed at the 2022 World’s Strongest Woman contest and got an identical fifth-place finish to last year.

With some additional training and experience, Gabi Dixson will undoubtedly become a contender for the most prestigious titles. She already has a few events in which she is incredible, as shown in Hercules Hold. She is also an amazing deadlifter, as she demonstrated earlier this year, having locked out 600 pounds raw.
