2nd Annual Clearwater Classic

What a day on America’s #1 rated beach! Clearwater Classic 2: Baddest on the Beach brought together an incredible field of athletes for a full day of strength, grit, and community right on the sand.

From the yoke-and-sandbag carries to the rising bar deadlift, every lane was packed with athletes pushing their limits in front of a crowd that showed up and showed out. A huge thank you to everyone who competed, whether you were chasing a podium spot or your own personal best — you’re what makes this event special.

A few highlights from the day:

• Athletes across divisions and weight classes battled it out for medals, trophies, and top-3 podium finishes
• Every competitor walked away with a comp shirt and swag bag
• Our VIP section came out strong, cheering on athletes from the front row all day long

We also want to extend a massive thank you to our sponsors, volunteers, judges, and the Dutch American Strength LLC team for making this event possible — none of this happens without you.

Congratulations to all of our podium finishers and to every single athlete who stepped up to compete. We’ll be posting full results and photos soon, so keep an eye on our Iron Podium event page and social channels.

Until next time, Clearwater — thanks for being the Baddest on the Beach.
