Lithuania’s strengths will target the World Cup

Adurius Jokūbaitis and Modestas Struckus will represent the Lithuanian national team team competition. Last year, Lithuanian champion Audrius Jokūbaitis took 6th place in the prestigious Arnold Classic tournament in Iceland last year, overtaking several rivals from the Elite US World’s Strongest Man tournament. The Lithuanian once again proved that it could already be competitive in the world’s strongest tournaments. In Riga, he took second place among 12 athletes in the Champions League.

In Kaunas, our duo awaits serious competition. According to Žydrūnas Savickas, one of the competition organizers, a very capable Latvian team, a solid American duo, as well as the titled UK team, which will be represented by Wales and Northern Ireland, the German national team and the Joint Romanian and Ukrainian team. It is difficult for Ukrainians to gather a full -fledged team of power in warfrons for the Ukrainians, so they joined the Romanians.

Seven matches await participants. Perhaps the most interesting will be the Log Lifting Board. This is a technically difficult task. Also – the lifting of the barbell. Moving stone, weights relay relay, weight holding against yourself, weight holding on outstretched hands. The latter will be double.

The competition, the Daugirdas Amphitheater (Pier Fair 6) will start at 12 noon and finish at about 3 pm, the audience will certainly not last. During breaks, fans will be able to try their own in the lighter matches for them.

« There is a very interesting struggle, where ours should show the strength of Lithuanians. I have no doubt that the gifts will decorate the beautiful birthday of Kaunas City, » said Žydrūnas Savickas, who has been titled the strongest man in the world for many years.
