Biography

Florian Trimpl began competing in strongman tournaments in 2004 at the age of 24. Trimpl rose to international attention with podium finishes in Germany's Strongest Man, culminating in winning that title in 2009. He did not affiliate to the IFSA but instead participated in the World Strongman Cup tours from 2005 onwards. This international exposure led to a 2007 invitation to the prestigious World's Strongest Man. His win in the qualifying heats of that tournament in the Hercules Hold event, in a group containing Mark Felix who has a claim to having the strongest grip in the world, is the achievement he has stated he is most proud of.'[2] He went on to participate in two more World's Strongest Man finals in 2008 and 2009.
