After the 12-strongman field worked through five successive events, including the Deadlift and Log Lift, the Netherland’s George Sulaiman captured the victory. The 22-year-old Sulaiman’s resounding performance featured the strength athlete amassing 51 of 60 possible points. He overcame the more experienced two-time World’s Strongest Man (WSM) competitor Ervin Toots by a four-point margin. 

Here are the final results from the 2022 Strongman Champions League Portugal contest:

2022 Strongman Champions League Portugal Results

1. George Sulaiman (Netherlands) — 51 points
2. Ervin Toots (Estonia) — 47 points
3. Sebastian Kurek (Poland) — 43 points
4. Aurélien Le Jeune (France) — 38.5 points
5. Kane Francis (United Kingdom) — 34 points
6. Alessandro Castelli (Italy) — 33 points
7. Andrea Invernizzi (Italy) — 32 points
8. Roberto Rodríguez (Spain) — 26 points
9. Sean O’Hagan (Ireland) — 25.5 points
10. Silviu Urdea (Romania) — 24.5 points
11. Lucas Rogerio (Brazil) — 20.5 points
12. Fábio Silva (Portugal) — 15 points

Per Strongman Archives, Sulaiman’s win in the 2022 SCL Portugal competition was the first of his career. It might have been a culmination of recent solid showings for Sulaiman, like a second-place result in the 2022 Strongest Man in the Netherlands from early July. At the time of this writing, Sulaiman has participated in just five strongman competitions and has reached the podium on three occasions.

Conan’s Wheel

If this Conan’s Wheel event followed its usual structure from other strongman events, the competitors likely had to carry a heavy implement (undisclosed weight) on a fixed point that tested their forearm strength and midlines. Without dropping the weight, each athlete’s cumulative distance was their score. 

1. George Sulaiman — 60.4 meters
2. Ervin Toots — 57.5 meters
3. Sebastian Kurek — 46.5 meters
4. Kane Francis — 45 meters
5. Alessandro Castelli — 39.5 meters
6. Sean O’Hagan — 37.4 meters
7. Silviu Urdea — 23.5 meters
8. Roberto Rodríguez — 23 meters
9. Fábio Silva — 11.8 meters
10. Aurélien Le Jeune — 6.5 meters
11. Lucas Rogerio — 4.3 meters
12. Andrea Invernizzi — 2.5 meters

Medley

The Medley concluded the 2022 SCL Portugal. The exact format details and implements are unconfirmed at the time of this article’s publication. If the precedent of other strongman contests is any indication, it likely included some form of a Farmer’s Walk for a certain distance followed by repeatedly loading a unique implement onto a platform. Nonetheless, the winner was who completed the overall Medley fastest. 

1. Sebastian Kurek — 39.43 seconds
2. Ervin Toots — 39.90 seconds
3. George Sulaiman — 43.44 seconds
4. Aurélien Le Jeune — 44.43 seconds
5. Kane Francis — 46.89 seconds
6. Roberto Rodríguez — 47.88 seconds
7. Alessandro Castelli — 53.29 seconds
8. Fábio Silva — 60.56 seconds
9. Lucas Rogerio — 61.25 seconds
10. Sean O’Hagan — One flip (T-10th)
11. Silviu Urdea — One flip (T-10th)

Next Steps

At the time of this writing, Sulaiman has not confirmed when he will compete in strongman competition next. Notably, the 2022 SCL Portugal was Sulaiman’s first contest outside his native Netherlands. Whether he competes on an international stage or a domestic platform again, it is evident that Sulaiman shows promise as a young strongman.

The post 2022 Strongman Champions League Portugal Results — George Sulaiman Puts Himself on the Map appeared first on Breaking Muscle.

http://www.marksdailyapple.com/

Everything in the world is conspiring to make you fall over. The ground is slippery, slick, and studded with protrusions. The earth moves under your feet. Discarded banana peels are an ever-present threat. Gravity itself exerts a constant downward pull.

You probably only think about balance when you decide to test it—or when you lose it. But you’re relying on it every second that you’re not lying prone. Whenever you work at your standing desk, step out of the shower, hustle across a busy intersection, or ride your kids to school on your bikes, you can thank your balance for allowing you to successfully move through your day without injury.

Stop for a second and think about how much goes into maintaining balance:

• Musculoskeletal strength and coordination: Balance requires not just adequately strong bones, muscles, and joints but also proper alignment. Muscles that are too tight or too weak can cause imbalances.
• Vision: Visual input provides an overview of the physical surroundings, and external focus (looking at a point in the environment) helps keep us from losing our balance as easily.
• Vestibular system: The fluid in our inner ears acts as a kind of level, telling us where our bodies are in space.
• Somatosensory system: The nerves in our muscles and connective tissues relay information about our position in the surroundings.
• Cognition: The brain has to integrate all the information coming in from the body and make adjustments on the fly to fight gravity.

That we (usually) manage to stay upright at all is impressive!

Why is balance important?

This might be obvious, but let’s run through it. Balance isn’t just standing on a stable surface without toppling over (static stability). It’s also maintaining your posture and technique while walking, running, jumping, cycling, or anything else that involves movement (dynamic stability). Balance is essential for all of us, and especially for athletes whose feats put them at regular odds with the forces that threaten to throw them off kilter. Athletes with better balance are less prone to falls and injury, especially if they have a prior history of injury.^{1 2}

The older you get, the more challenging balancing becomes, which makes sense. Muscular strength, bone density, vision, and somatosensory function all decline with age. Bone loss typically accompanies menopause, which is why over 70 percent of hip fractures in seniors occur in women.³ If you’re unlucky enough to suffer a hip fracture after the age of 50, you have a 24 percent chance of dying within a year. Balance assessments are an effective predictor of fall risk in the elderly.⁴ Better balance, less risk, as you’d expect.

What can I do to improve my balance?

Get enough sleep.

I don’t care if you’re sick of hearing me crow about sleep. It’s that important, and I’m going to continue to detail the many facets of life affected by poor sleep.

The day after a night of sleep deprivation, your dynamic balance suffers. Your ability to integrate sensorimotor function with visual input to control posture drops.⁵ Your postural stability gets wonky.⁶ If you keep it up at a chronic level, even missing “just a few hours” each night, you impair postural control.⁷

Spend more time barefoot.

The foot, with its intricate architecture of small bones, connective tissue, and musculature, are designed to collective somatosensory information from the ground. Your toes grip the ground, and small adjustments in the feet and ankles correct for temporary, even imperceptible (to your conscious self) losses of balance. When your feet are encased in thick-soled, “supportive” footwear, you prevent your feet from serving these most important of functions.

Move deliberately.

Don’t rush through movements all the time. Move slooooowly and really feel the motion. Maintain control across the whole span.

Walking meditations involve slow, controlled strolls with intentional mindfulness paid to your body and your surroundings.

I really like different plank variations, including contralateral and side planks, for the slow yet strong stress they place on your balance capacity.

Build strength.

Balance isn’t all in the head. You don’t think yourself to stability. You must ultimately use your muscles to stabilize yourself. And while you don’t need to add 30 pounds of muscle and squat three times your bodyweight to improve balance, getting stronger does help. If you already know that balance is an issue for you, seek out a physiotherapist who specializes in balance exercises.

Work balance into the day.

This doesn’t have to be complicated. There are endless ways to work balance into the day and have fun doing it. Below are some of my favorite.

• Stand on one leg while you wait for coffee.
• Get off the concrete and walk on more natural surfaces—grass, sand, even gravel.
• Walk along the curb.
• Skip.
• When you go to the gym to lift heavy things, incorporate single-leg lifts like single-leg deadlifts and pistol squats.

Maintain a neutral spine.

Balance is about maintaining a stable, neutral spine amidst whatever gravity and life throws at you. So always focus on the spine.

Keep your shoulders back and chest up. Don’t thrust your check out, but don’t allow your shoulders to round forward either. Keep everything in a nice line. Keep your feet, ankles, knees, and hips mobile, lubed up, and primed for activity. Watch knee valgus (knee caving inward) during movements like squats.

This is basic posture, but it’s so important. If your head juts forward, you’re out of position. You’ve just committed 11 pounds of skull, flesh, and brain to a bad position where gravity can yank down on it. Now imagine running, jumping, or even just walking down the street with that big head lolling around upsetting your balance.

Get some air.

Jumping—and landing—is perhaps the single best test of balance. You’re flying through the air then landing. Your body wants to keep going, and you need to prevent that without tearing anything or falling over. There’s a lot going on, too much to intellectualize.

That’s why actually getting out and jumping is so important for balance. Keep the basics in mind:

• Land softly on the balls of your feet, then the heels
• Land with hip flexion, and absorb the impact with your quads, glutes, and hamstrings
• Don’t let your knees drift inward.
• Maintain that neutral spine.

Start small, and the body will take care of the rest. You do it, you land it, you do it again, you improve, you learn.

Want even more fun? Try a trampoline or a rebounder. I recently found myself on a 15-foot trampoline. The difference between jumping and landing with a neutral, aligned spine and jumping and landing even slightly hunched over was jarring. The former felt fluid and powerful and right. The latter felt all wrong, and I only jumped about half as high. Trampolines reward good balance. They enhance it, too.

Stay young.

Aging worsens everything associated with balance, so do your best not to age. I’m kidding, kinda. Everyone progresses through space-time. We all “get older.” But your biological age—the health and resilience of your tissues, organs, and abilities—is more malleable. You can’t turn back time, but you can compress morbidity:

• Stay active. Walk a ton. Lift something heavy a couple times a week.
• Eat the right amount of protein and carbs for your needs. Prioritize food quality where you can.
• Stop eating so often. Fast occasionally. Limit snacking.
• Get sunlight on your skin and in your eyes.
• Limit stress.
• Play.

Do dynamic movements and balance training.

Balance adheres to the “use it or lose it” maxim. Take it for granted and fail to maintain it, and you’ll surely end up regretting it. If you’ve already noticed that your balance is slipping (no pun intended), it’s probably not too late to fix it.

Everyone should be incorporating targeted balance exercises into their regular routine. Start with the foundational balance exercises here. These movements can be done any time, anywhere. Treat them like microworkouts, scattered into your day as part of your commitment to frequent everyday movement, and/or set aside some time at the beginning or end of your gym sessions to focus on this crucial skill.

That’s about it for today, folks. How’s your balance? How has balance affected your life, your performance, and your injury risk? How do you train it?

Thanks for reading, everyone. Take care.

On August 4-6, 2022, the annual Tampa Pro took place in Tampa Bay, Florida. The International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness (IFBB) Pro League competition is one of the significant steps to the 2022 Mr. Olympia. Most every IFBB contest could play an important role in potential qualification for the prestigious Olympia. 

This year’s Tampa Pro featured 10 different divisions with notable winners like Akim Williams (Men’s Open) at the head of the pack. The respective winners in each category earned automatic spots in the 2022 Mr. Olympia because the Tampa Pro is an official Pro League contest. 

Here’s an overview of the results from the Men’s Open division at the 2022 Tampa Pro:

2022 Tampa Pro Results | Men’s Open

1. Akim Williams
2. Kamal Elgargni
3. Quinton Eriya
4. Joseph Mackey
5. Phil Clahar

Williams’ victory is a solid result in his first contest since a ninth-place finish at the 2021 Mr. Olympia. The bodybuilder might channel this effort for a better result in December’s Olympia. His best career finish in the major contest was sixth place in the 2020 edition.

Williams’ dedicated work with aspects of his body like his shredded arms, shoulders, and legs was enough to overcome former 212 Olympia champ (2019) Kamal Elgargni — a newcomer to the Men’s Open division. While he didn’t win, a second-place finish is a quality result for Elgargni in his first time competing in a new category. 

According to the IFBB Pro League’s qualification standards, the Tampa Pro is a Tier 2 contest. Second through fifth place finishers in this competition earned points ranging from eight to five in their respective quests to qualify for the Olympia. That means a fourth-place result for a rising star like Joe Mackey earned him six points as he works for potential Olympia hopes. Mackey has another pending opportunity for more points (or automatic qualification with a win) in a Tier 4 contest at the 2022 Texas Pro on August 12-13, 2022, in Irving, Texas. 

The 2022 Olympia qualification period will conclude on November 20, 2022.

Joining Nakonechnyy on the podium were Canada’s Mitchell Hooper and another Ukrainian competitor, Oleksii Novikov, in second and third place, respectively. This was Hooper’s second consecutive podium finish after a strong showing at the Giants Live Strongman Classic in early July. Novikov won that contest. According to Strongman Archives, with his third-place result at the World Open, Novikov has now stood on a podium in 11 straight competitions dating back to July 2021. 

Here are the final standings from the 2022 Giants Live World Open:

The competition consisted of five events in one day, including the Max Deadlift, Medley, Log Lift for Reps, Front Hold, and Atlas Stones. Here’s a short rundown of how each competitor fared in the individual events. 

Max Deadlift 

The Max Deadlift, which doubled as the 2022 World Deadlift Championships (WDC), started the contest. The set-up was straightforward — deadlift as much weight as possible. The athletes began with 400 kilograms (938.1 pounds) and slowly increased the load on their barbells. 

While five athletes made valiant attempts at pulling 453.6 kilograms (1,000 pounds), Rauno Heinla was the only competitor to successfully pull at least that much weight. The Estonian strongman eventually deadlifted 476 kilograms (1,049.4 pounds) for a new Master’s World Record and the event win. 

1. Rauno Heinla — 476 kilograms (1,049.4 pounds)
2. Graham Hicks — 453.5 kilograms (999.8 pounds)
3. Mitchell Hooper — 453.5 kilograms (999.8 pounds)
4. Ivan Makarov — 453.5 kilograms (999.8 pounds)
5. Pavlo Nakonechnyy — 453.5 kilograms (999.8 pounds)
6. Gavin Bilton — 425.5 kilograms (938.1 pounds)
7. Oleksii Novikov — 425.5 kilograms (938.1 pounds)
8. Evan Singleton — 425.5 kilograms (938.1 pounds)
9. Shane Flowers — 400 Kilograms (881.9 pounds)
10. Andy Black — 400 Kilograms (881.9 pounds)
11. Pa O’Dwyer — 400 Kilograms (881.9 pounds)

Medley

After the Max Deadlift concluded, Ivan Makarov withdrew from the competition; he was only in Wales for that event. During the Medley, the athletes had to perform a Farmer’s Walk with 150-kilogram implements for 10 meters. Then, they had to load a 120-kilogram (264.5-pound) barrel on a podium that was positioned 12 meters from the start of the walk, a 120-kilogram (264.5-pound) sandbag onto a podium 15 meters away, and a 135-kilogram (297.6-pound) tire at 20 meters. 

Nakonechnyy won the Medley and his first event of the contest with a stellar time of 37.11 seconds. Hooper (38.23 seconds) closely followed in second place at a little over a second behind, while defending champion Evan Singleton (38.85 seconds) captured a third-place result.

1. Pavlo Nakonechnyy — 37.11 seconds
2. Mitchell Hooper — 38.23 seconds
3. Evan Singleton — 38.85 seconds
4. Oleksii Novikov — 41.75 seconds
5. Graham Hicks — 49.56 seconds
6. Gavin Bilton — 49.9 seconds
7. Andy Black — 51.37 seconds
8. Pa O’Dwyer — 52.39 seconds
9. Shane Flowers — 56.3 seconds
10. Rauno Heinla — Two meters (Farmer’s Walk)

Log Lift for Reps

During the Log Lift for Reps — the third event of the contest — the competitors had to lift a 150-kilogram (330.7-pound) log overhead as many times as possible within a 75-second time limit. After performing a successful eight reps, Hooper won his first event. Nakonechnyy and Novikov followed in a tie for second place with seven reps each as they evenly split points for their results. 

1. Mitchell Hooper — Eight reps
2. Pavlo Nakonechnyy — Seven reps
3. Oleksii Novikov — Seven reps
4. Rauno Heinla — Five reps
5. Gavin Bilton — Four reps
6. Graham Hicks — Three reps
7. Andy Black — One rep
8. Shane Flowers — Did not participate

Note: Singleton and O’Dwyer withdrew after the Medley, leaving an eight-athlete field through the remainder of the contest. 

Front Hold

As the Giants Live World Open rounded to a close, the Front Hold awaited the remaining field of athletes. Here, they had to hold up a 30-kilogram implement at shoulder height for as long as they could. While every competitor managed to hold it up for at least 30 seconds, Hooper won a second-straight event by maintaining his hold for 54.45 seconds. Graham Hicks (50.82 seconds) was in second while Nakonechnyy (47.38 seconds) tailed just behind him in third. 

1. Mitchell Hooper — 54.45 seconds
2. Graham Hicks — 50.82 seconds
3. Pavlo Nakonechnyy — 47.38 seconds
4. Oleksii Novikov — 45.66 seconds
5. Rauno Heinla — 42.62 seconds

Worthy Stakes

Typically, the top-three finishers in Giants Live competitions earn automatic qualification to the following year’s World’s Strongest Man (WSM). After the 22-year-old Nakonechnyy’s win in this contest, he could make his WSM debut next spring if he decides to compete. Hooper already has a place in the 2023 WSM thanks to his solid performance in the Strongman Classic, while Novikov has a lifetime invitation by virtue of winning the 2020 WSM. 

The 2022 Giants Live World Tour Finals are next for some of these star strongmen. That contest will occur on October 8, 2022, in Glasgow, Scotland.

Cherry tomatoes add vibrant color to any dish. Whether you’re using them to drizzle on top of a grilled chicken salad or letting them simmer of a stove in a chicken skillet recipe to bring out all the flavor, cherry tomatoes are sure to liven up any dish. But what happens when it’s the end of the week and you still haven’t made a dent in that large box of cherry tomatoes you got from the store or local farmer’s market? That’s where this recipe comes in.

What’s the difference between cherry tomatoes and grape tomatoes?

There’s not a lot. One of the main differences comes in size. Grape tomatoes tend to be smaller and are oblong rather than round, just like a grape. Grape tomatoes also aren’t as sweet as cherry tomatoes. Nutritionally though, they’re pretty similar.

How to make a cherry tomato salad

Once you’ve gathered all your ingredient slice your cherry tomatoes and mozzarella in half. Place in a large bowl with the sliced onion.

Then, in a small bowl, combine the Primal Kitchen Balsamic dressing, basil, dijon mustard, garlic, salt and pepper. 

Pour the balsamic mixture over the tomatoes, mozzarella and onions and gently fold it in until combined. Allow to marinate for 15-30 minutes before serving.

Tips:

This salad can be made ahead of time. Just prepare and place in the fridge to marinate for up to a day, or until ready to serve. The oil in the dressing may solidify, but simply let the salad stand at room temperature for a few minutes and it should turn back to liquid.

In the end, Horvath captured another event victory, which played a huge role in her overall third-place finish on the Games’ podium. Meanwhile, Jeffrey Adler cruised ahead of the rest of the Men, with Willy Georges in second and the eventual Men’s champion, Medeiros, coming in third.

Individual Event 13 — Jackie Pro

In the final event of this year’s Games, the respective athletes had the objective of working through some CrossFit classics — meaning a 1,000-meter row, 50 thrusters, and, of course, 30 muscle-ups. Despite already locking up her title, Toomey finished in the top 10. 

Lucy Campbell finished strong, taking home another event win, while Kara Saunders and Mal O’Brien followed. Meanwhile, Lazar Đukić sailed through this last segment, beating Khrennikov by just about 10 seconds. A solid fourth-place finish for the locked-in overall winner Medeiros was a cherry on top.

Tia-Clair Toomey’s 2022 CrossFit Games Performance

After a relatively slow start by her high standards, Toomey rebounded quite well through the rest of the Games. The 29-year-old placed out of the top 10 just twice throughout the entire competition. She also notched five event results that were at least in the top five, including a victory in the jerk segment of “Shuttle to Overhead,” which was the equivalent of a full event’s worth of points. That result helped propel the athlete back into prime position for the overall Games title.

Mal O’Brien had led the overall leaderboard after each of the first two days of the competition before Toomey eventually surged past her with consistency. 

• Bike to Work: 2nd, 38:26.64
• Shuttle to Overhead (Run): 2nd, 7:08.14
• Shuttle to Overhead (Jerk): 1st, 18 reps
• Skill Speed Medley: 23rd, 23 pt
• Elizabeth Elevated: 12th, CAP+3
• The Capitol: 8th, 34:08.32
• Up and Over: 2nd, 13:09.31
• Echo Press: 5th, 7:29.07
• Rinse N’ Repeat: 7th, 151 calories
• Hat Trick: 3rd, 4:01.83
• Sandbag Ladder: 5th, 330 pounds
• The Alpaca: 5th, 6:46.48
• Back Nine: 2nd, 1:16.08
• Jackie Pro: 10th, 9:47.28

Justin Medeiros’s 2022 CrossFit Games Performance 

The start of the competition similarly got off somewhat slow for Medeiros in his quest for a repeat title. Eventual third-place finisher Ricky Garard actually led after the first two days of the contest. Eventually, Medeiros plugged away with consistent solid finishes that vaulted him past the rest of the Men’s division. Throughout the entire competition, Medeiros took home 11 top-10 event results. Notably, he closed well with at least a top-five position in each of the last five events of this year’s Games. 

• Bike to Work: 3rd, 36:53.65
• Shuttle to Overhead (Run): 18th, 7:12.80
• Shuttle to Overhead (Jerk): 5th, 16 reps
• Skill Speed Medley: 3rd, 3 pt
• Elizabeth Elevated: 9th, 11:22.64
• The Capitol: 3rd, 35:11.29
• Up and Over: 1st, 11:58.92
• Echo Press: 2nd, 7:45.28
• Rinse N’ Repeat: 4th, 130 calories
• Hat Trick: 3rd, 4:05.12
• Sandbag Ladder: 9th, 210 pounds
• The Alpaca: 17th, 9:34.20
• Back Nine: 3rd, 1:32.82
• Jackie Pro: 4th, 8:26.34

Heading into the 2023 CrossFit season, there could be a significant shift on the Women’s side of the proceedings. After becoming the winningest individual athlete in the Games’ history, Toomey may well decide to retire while she sits on top of the sport, as Fraser did before her. Her potential departure could leave an opening for rising stars like O’Brien and Emma Lawson. On the Men’s side of things, after joining a very exclusive club, the youthful Medeiros will likely vie for the legendary three-peat. Whether any of his peers can topple the defending two-time Fittest Man on Earth® is a question the sport won’t have an answer for until next summer.

Event One — Three Ways Down

The division’s initial event was a three-phase challenge. Competitors were required to run 1,400 meters, perform three 20-foot rope climbs, and finish 21 reps of dumbbell shoulder-to-overhead lifts. The next section included a 1,200-meter run, two 20-foot rope climbs, and 15 shoulder-to-overheads.

Finally, they faced an 800-meter run, one 20-foot rope climb, and nine shoulder-to-overhead reps. The entire series was performed for the fastest time with a 30-minute time limit.

The day’s final event tested athletes with fundamental movements familiar to any CrossFitter in any box on the globe.

Within a seven-minute time cap, competitors were required to perform a circuit of pegboard climbing, handstand push-ups, single-leg squats, GHD sit-ups, and handstand walking — while interspersing jump rope double-unders between each exercise.

Event Four — Parallel Elizabeth

The second day for Age Group athletes began with a modified version of the familiar Elizabeth WOD, which is commonly used in CrossFit boxes. While “basic” Elizabeth combines cleans and ring dips, Parallel Elizabeth increased the difficulty on both movements.

Athletes were required to perform 21 squat cleans, seven parallel bar traverses, 15 squat cleans, five parallel bar traverses, nine squat cleans, and three parallel bar traverses as quickly as possible within a nine-minute time limit.

Event Seven — Rinse ‘N’ Repeat

Event Seven was unique, as it was the same for every single athlete across every single division. The Age Group athletes took to the pool with enthusiasm, seeing a lot of shifts in the rankings that revealed who practices in the pool and who hasn’t been able to.

Starting every 2 minutes:

• 50-yard swim (25 yards across the pool + 25 yards back)
• 8-cal Ski Erg* 

*Add +2 cal each round.

Athletes continue as long as they are able to finish the calories before the 2 minutes expires.

If athletes advance past the 6th round (18 cal), the 7th + 8th rounds will be performed for max calories.
