Strongman: My Story

An interesting look into the life of Eddie Hall. An enjoyable read.

Excellent story and life

Great guy

Interesting read, but in a way a little depressing. Eddie is one of my favorite strength athletes, obsessive to the extreme to meet his goal of being crowned the worlds strongest man. As a fan I'm worried about his health, Terry Hollands and now Brian Shaw have leaned up taking a more healthful approach to strongman, I'd love to see Eddie follow suit, so his fans and mostly his family can enjoy him.

Great book! Eddie tells a lot of personal info that you wouldn't know otherwise. Easy to read, entertaining.

I'm not into celebrity, but Eddie is one of the very few I'd like to meet. Inspirational story

Awesome read Eddie is hilarious and very entertaining!!

I've been following Eddie on youtube and he's quite the character. I'm glad he kept that same voice in the book.

This book is an unapologetic, high-energy autobiography that takes readers inside the world of professional strongman competitions. Hall shares his journey from a troubled youth to becoming the World’s Strongest Man, offering an unfiltered look at the extreme training, brutal sacrifices, and sheer determination required to reach the top. His larger-than-life personality shines through, making the book as entertaining as it is inspiring. I found it to be an engaging read, packed with humor, grit, and jaw-dropping feats of strength. Hall doesn’t hold back—whether he’s discussing his intense diet, the toll on his body, or the rivalries that fueled his success. A must-read for fans of strength sports or anyone who appreciates a story of relentless ambition.

A great read to know how Eddie started to become a strongman athlete. He's honest and it hits you when you can relate in some of his life experience. It would be grateful to train with him.

tres bon livre à lire obligatoirement

I thoroughly enjoy this book. I always enjoy books where I feel the author is being fully honest about their experiences and stories wart and all I am told it is called. I think every man in the world a one point in their/our lives though we were or could quite easily become the strongest man in the world. In this book Eddie Hall tell us exactly what it takes. There is no magic formula, it is physical and mental toughness bordering on torture. Then there is the sacrifice. This burden is not carried alone but must be shared by friends and family members alike. There is also a big difference between strength and health. The book covers Eddie early and family life and of course his journey to becoming the strongest man in the world. The road is not easy. It takes someone like Eddie’s do or (literally) die attitude to make it happen. Eddie calmly take about injuries and situations that probably would have killed most people. The only thing that is not covered in this book is specific training me. Eddie vaguely says the number of hour he spends in the gym. but not specific of the exercise. The story is more about Eddie life experiences and the sacrifices along the way. A great story and hard earned achievements and success. Many of which almost cost Eddie his life. A great story but Eddie is not shy talking about cost to himself and his family. A great story as long as you don’t mind a decent sprinkling of f-bombs, though that is just Eddie’s personally and speech so it adds authenticity.

EDDIE "THE BEAST" HALL... nothing to say more than that. Great book, great quality, love the way he actually presents his family to us. There are great images in the middle of the book which makes it a great way to have images of them all in our thoughts while reading. Story's a bit short as it's text width is a big large but it makes it easy to read for everyone.
