Description

The World's Strongest Firefighter Contest will return to the Arnold Sports Festival in 2023 with a bigger and better format. The contest, held on the Santa Monica Pier in 2020 and before a sold-out crowd at the 2022 Arnold Sports Festival, will be an open competition in 2023 with three weight classes -- open men, middleweight men (under 231 pounds) and women. The top 10 finishers in the open men's competition and the winner of the men's middleweight and women's divisions will advance to the World's Strongest Firefighter finals at the Arnold Expo Stage on Sunday, March 5. Daniel Camacho (Phoenix, Ariz., Fire Department), Marcus Waugh (Toledo, Ohio, Fire & Rescue) and Brooks Larkin (East Manatee Fire, Bradenton, Fla.), the top three finishers from the 2022 World's Strongest Firefighter Contest, will automatically advance to Sunday's final. Qualifying competitions will be held March 3 and / or March 4 at the Arnold Sports Festival in Columbus, Ohio. A portion of registration fees will benefit the Santa Monica Firefighters Relief Fund; CAL FIRE Benevolent Foundation, and the Columbus Firefighters Foundation.
