“They will compete in six events like: Log Lift Max , Loading, Wheel Flip , Yoke Race, Deadlift for Max and the Atlas stones up to 180 kg.

“If Jarno Hams will win, then he equals together with former Dutch record holder and European Strongest Man in 2000, Berend Veneberg, with 7 national titles.
“He is ready to fight for that and in good shape, as he broke the Dutch Log Lift record just 3 weeks ago in the SCL–Holland with 182.5 kg,” said Mostert.
