Cerberus Strength USA – Only The Strongest Survive

First off, how badass of a name is Cerberus? Something just boils inside of me thinking of the three headed dog that guarded the pits to hell. PRs start forming in my head. Maybe even each of those dog heads represents our beloved Squat, Bench, and Deadlift? If this is your first experience with Cerberus Strength USA, let’s dig in a little. Cerberus Strength is a world renowned Strongman equipment and gear company. Cerberus Strength USA is the American arm of said company. They work together, but independently, to produce equipment, put out content, and serve their local loyal fans.

The owner of Cerberus Strength USA is Ken, a competitive Strongman Athlete who regularly arrives at Worlds Strongest Man and other HUGE competitions. He migrated from Scotland to the US, and has since been crushing it at every end. He is consistently dropping awesome videos on his YouTube channel from tips and tricks to product insights and chats with big dudes about lifting stuff.

If you have seen my stance before, when gym equipment is made by people who use it, it is better. Every. Damn. Time. And that is why Cerberus Strength makes the best strongman gear out there!

But Isn’t This About Powerlifting?

If you are thinking, Strongman isn’t Powerlifting, what gives? Strongmen and Powerlifting have a lot in common, with the easiest crossover being the pursuit of strength. Not convinced? Cerberus has a full line of Power Bars including a Deadlift Bar and Squat Bar. Strongmen deadlift, sometimes squat, and do a lot of pressing (not Bench, but we’ll forgive them for that).

Strongman Is The Most Fun You’ll Have Lifting – Ever!

Yeah yeah I know, this is bad advertising for a powerlifting competition. But seriously, nothing is more fun than picking up heavy weight, running around with is, and throwing it somewhere. There is just something cool about weighted carries, log presses, dropping huge weights from overhead, stones, and more. The cool thing is, you can get away with a LOT of strongman training with just a few key accessories. And… AND!!!! Strongman work is great conditioning and super supplemental to your pursuit of a bigger total in the Garage Gym Competition.

That is why Cerberus Strength USA is our Official Strongman Training Sponsor!

What Does This Mean?

If you enjoy strongman training, or want to dabble in it, or even get your pinky toe wet in it, we got you! Cerberus Strength USA has a ton of awesome resources that we will share with you. A bunch right here, and more in our GGC Newsletter as we progress throughout the year.

And DEFINITELY check out their training tip resources for all things strongman related. There is plenty of carryover here regardless of what strength sport you train for.

What Do I Need To Train Strongman At Home?

We have an article on the way. In the meantime, you can start simply by picking up some random stuff and carrying it around. Fill up a backpack with sand or rocks. Or grab a few items from the shopping list here.

• Deadlifts – The Cerberus Strength USA Deadlift Bar is a GREAT blend of powerlifting and Strongman.
• Weighted Carries – There are a bunch of ways to tackle weighted carries, but a Sandbag is going to get you a HUGE bang for your buck.
• Overhead Press – You can overhead press any bar. But Strongmen use an Axle.
• Tire Flip – If you have a kettlebell, use this to mimic the movement. Otherwise, a Throwing Bag will give ya some double bang for the buck here on Tire Flips and throwing events.
• Atlas Stone – Remember that sandbag? Give it a go for Atlas Stones!

What Else Does Cerberus Strength USA Have?

If you need it to lift, they probably have it. Their bar lineup includes the mentioned Deadlift and Squat Bar, they have an SSB, bumper plates, and cast iron plates. They have a full line of smelling salts, supplements, and creams to help you hit the heaviest weights and recover from them afterwards. And they have every sleeve, wrap, strap, and belt you can imagine. If you aren’t familiar with strongmen, the gear can get crazy as they layer multiple items on top of each other and wear different sleeves straps and wraps for different events. And of course if you LOVE them and their logo and what they support, you can wear everything from briefs to shorts to hats and shirts from them.

So you KNOW whether you are lifting heavy weights and walking around with them, or lifting them in place, Cerberus Strength USA has the good stuff for you to hit your PRs and come back the next day for more.
