Analyst note

Power cages, competition benches and a full strongman kit (atlas stones, yokes, logs, kegs, axle) in West Ham. Booking-only and coaching-led across powerlifting, weightlifting and strongman, which in London is about as common as a quiet Tube.

Legitimate iron. A touch of polish, but the work counts.

A
Rating: LegitReal iron, lightly polished. The work counts.
