Whereas many strongman events, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/powerlifter-danny-grigsby-deadlift-915-pounds-for-2-reps\/\" data-lasso-id=\"100541\">deadlift<\/a>, can be trained relatively simply within the gym while relying on high-level conditioning, the log press demands more unconventional attention.<\/p>\n<p>The log has an awkward shape and is cumbersome to handle, regardless of strength. On top of that, pressing the log overhead requires a neutral grip (when an athlete&#8217;s palms face one another), which&nbsp;could mean an extra challenge if a person is inexperienced with the position.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The log press first rose to prominence in competition during the early 1980s, mere years after the World&#8217;s Strongest Man&#8217;s initial inception in 1977.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/strongman.org\/events\/log-press\/\" data-lasso-id=\"100524\"><em>Strongman.org<\/em><\/a>, the first pioneer to elevate the event&#8217;s prominent place in the sport was an all-time strongman great, Bill Kazmaier \u2014 a three-time WSM Champion (1980, 1981, 1982). It was during the 1980 WSM that Kazmaier hoisted a 157-kilogram log (346.1 pounds), winning the inaugural event while also setting a then-world record.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"videos\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Heaviest Log Presses of ALL TIME (Men&#039;s &amp; Women&#039;s Records)\" width=\"950\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ewxosN0vzRA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<p>Since then, many of the world&#8217;s top strongmen have built upon Kazmaier&#8217;s initial benchmark to varying degrees of success. After a few decades, another strongman legend, <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/zydrunas-savickas-adice-to-strongman-competitors\/\" data-lasso-id=\"100542\">\u017dydr\u016bnas &#8220;Big Z&#8221; Savickas<\/a>, held what seemed to be an unimpeachable record with a 228-kilogram log press (502 pounds) notched at the 2015 For\u00e7a Bruta.<\/p>\n<p>That is until Cheick &#8220;Iron Biby&#8221; Sanou eclipsed Savickas by one whole kilogram at the 2021 Giants Live World Tour Finals. In recent years, the Giants Live organization has since been the main organizer of the primary log press event \u2014 The World Log Lift Championships \u2014 though they alternate with the Strongman Champions League.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Only time will tell whether another strongman eventually breaks Sanou&#8217;s new log lift boundary.
