MET-Rx World's Strongest Man 2006 Sanya, China 14th Sept - 23rd Sep 2006
Sept 13th

Already the burning heat is wearing on me. The locals have told me that we are enjoying a cool spell but it doesn't feel like it to myself and the rest of the 300+ pound monsters who are sweating on everything we touch. The humidity is so high that my Rehband knee sleeves that I wore during my morning training didn't dry overnight though I left them in a breezy location on the porch. Lucky for me the pool is just ten feet away from our back door.

I'm surprisingly relaxed and not at all nervous. To me this is just another day at the office. My wife, Callie, is enjoying herself to the utmost. The Mangrove Tree Resort is a true oasis for any bikini clad beauty. Drinks are served in the pool bar for less than $1.00 USD. To my own amazement Callie has limited herself to just one drink so far. When the show is over I will not be engaging in the same restraint...
