There has been plenty of build up to this year’s World’s Strongest Man. Will Hafthor Bjornsson hang on to his title? Bjornsson won the 2018 World’s Strongest Man followed by Mateusz Kieliszkowski winning silver, and Brian Shaw earning bronze. All three strongmen have been plenty busy in their training, from showing off truck pulls to racking up notable wins at the 2019 Arnold Strongman Classic.

With all of the events and locations now provided, now the only question remaining is who do you think will be crowned the 2019 World’s Strongest Man?
