Description
ODIN’S CHOSEN
Where Strength Is Forged. Where Legends Are Chosen.
The Aesir and Vanir are calling.
Odin’s Chosen is a one-of-a-kind strength competition built for men and women ready to test themselves, push beyond their limits, and earn their place among the strong.
This isn’t just another competition. It’s a VIP, once-in-a-lifetime experience designed to bring aspiring strength athletes directly into the world of elite strength sports. Competitors will have the rare opportunity to train, learn, compete, and spend time alongside accomplished strength athletes with decades of combined experience across the world of strength sports.
From the moment you enter, you’ll be challenged to summon the courage of a Viking warrior. You’ll test your power, endurance, grit, and determination against worthy competitors—and discover just how strong you truly are.
But the journey doesn’t end when the final lift is finished.
The top competitors who prove themselves worthy will receive an invitation to Odin’s Chosen IV, a fully sanctioned strong man event held in Vista, CA in Spring 2027, stepping onto an even greater stage alongside some of the strongest athletes in the sport.
Men. Women. Einherjar. Valkyries.
Come prepared to lift heavy, learn from the best, and experience strength sports from the inside.
The challenge has been issued.
