Champions are shaped out of hard work and dedication.

Many bodybuilders are inspired by the comic book superheroes they grew up reading about in their youth. Characters like the Superman, Batman, Wolverine, Captain America, and the Incredible Hulk have been a source of motivation for many to this day. But despite a great deal of athlete looking like they came straight out of a comic book, not all of those bodybuilders are able to claim that they’re one of the strongest human beings to walk the face of the earth. It’s a statement that World’s Strongest Man Brian Shaw is able assert with pride and confidence.

The two time World’s Strongest Man, Brian Shaw has battled against some of the strongest men on the planet including the massive Icelandic strongman Hafthor “The Mountain” Bjornsson. Redeeming himself last year year after coming in third place at the 2014 event, Shaw was able to come back and reclaim his throne as he pushed himself in the off season to make some serious strength gains.

In order to reclaim his number one placing, Shaw had to undergo some intense training to be able to overcome monsters like The Mountain and Zydrunas Savickas on his way to triumphing at the 2015 World’s Strongest Man event. The 2016 has yet to occur which means there is still plenty of time for athletes like Shaw and The Mountain to prep for the show.

Brian Shaw recently teamed up with Furious Pete for a video series that demonstrates exactly what a day is like for the World’s Strongest Man. Check out everything from Shaw’s diet to his training regimen that he utilizes in order to get himself into fighting form.
