“The top three athletes will advance to Southern Hemisphere’s Strongest Man (SHSM) under 105 kg in Australia in March of next year at the prestigious Australian Formula One Grand Prix in Melbourne,” Bill Lyndon, founder and director of SHSM, told IronMind. 

“Southern Hemisphere’s Strongman Union is a new organization to support strength athletes from all of the Southern Hemisphere.  This year’s World’s Strongest Man had the top three from SHSM.  At next year’s FitX/Giants Live Down Under, we will have our third year of the SHSM Open and our second installment of the under 105 SHSM at the Australian F1 in Melbourne the week later,” Lyndon said.
