Author: Tommy Marquez & Sean Woodland October 17, 2024 Duration: 1:09:11

We know more about the injury that is putting Roman Khrennikov on the shelf until next season. There were some sudden and unexpected changes to the qualifying process for the Dubai Fitness Championship. Some athletes earn a nice little pay day at an up-and-coming offseason competition while another event is set to take center stage Down Under.

Sam Belliveau recently won her 4th title of Strongest Woman in Canada and is getting ready to make her first appearance at the Rogue Invitational in November. She holds the world record in the dumbbell press with 2 reps at 185 pounds at the 2024 Arnold Strongwoman Classic. She talked with Lauren and Tommy about the opportunity to compete in Scotland at Rogue and how she and her fellow competitors are growing the sport of strongwoman around the world.
