Welcome to Strength Register

We love strongman. Strength Register is our way of helping people find out more about strongman, to help grow participants and the audience. Searching and listing on Strength Register will always be free.

Athletes

• Search for competitions - we aim to list competitions throughout the UK and Ireland, with listings created by promoters and by ourselves when we see new competitions across the internet and social media. You can refine your search by a number of filters, and if you would like to search near you, you can add a search term prefixed 'near' in the search box. E.g. "novice near Reading" or "novice near RG6 6BU" add "within 10miles" to search within a radius of the location. We are always working to improve search, so things may change over time. You may also view competitions on a Calendar, or on a Map if you prefer.

  

• Search for gyms - we have compiled a great list of the strongman gyms across the UK and Ireland, it began from our competition listings and the detail of the listing grows over time as gym owners claim their listings and add detail. You can search by location, using the 'near' keyword similar to competitions, or you can view the gyms on a Map.
• Search for coaches - coaches have been adding themselves to our listings for the last couple of years. There's a good breadth of coaches, in experience and budget. Coaching is a very personal endeavour and these listings aim to get you started in finding the right coach for you. Some offer online coaching only, and others in person, or both. Take your time reviewing the coaches, look at their social media and get in touch to see if you can work together. Search by location in a similar way to competitions and gyms, and also view on a Map.
• Save competitions you are interested in - once you are logged in, tap the star on a competition listing to add it to your favourites. View them at any time in your 'backstage' area for favourites. There is also a function to automatically add these to your calendar (on your phone for example). Search your favourites, and also mark whether you are competing, or spectating.

  

• Link with your coach - share your favourite competitions that you are competing at with your coach. Add them by email, and they will be able to view your schedule and add it to their calendar too.
• You can view our articles and write articles for the community. We'll check articles over before they are published.
