The seven-time World's Strongest Man competitor ("hoping to make it eight") said, "I'm happy to be back . . . the events are solid for me and I'm looking forward to doing well." Quick to praise the other competitors, Mark added, "There are no slouches in that field."

Known as one of the deadliest deadlifters in strongman, Mark Philippi recently opened a top notch training facility in Las Vegas - the Philippi Sports Institute - and he is busy making some selective hiring decisions as he continues to expand.
