As
it
is
glaringly
obvious
by
now,
Team
Iron
Behemoths
has
made
an
impact
on
the
Singapore
strength-sports
scene
like
no
other
group
has
ever
done.
With
all
5
members
ranked
among
the
top
25
strongest
men
in
the
country,
including
the
2008
champion
and
2nd
runner-up
from
our
team,
we
have
collectively
performed
better
than
any
other
strength-sports
group
in
the
country
and
received
our
fair
share
of
media
coverage
–
certainly
much
more
than
any
other
local
bodybuilding
contests
or
interest
groups.
Now
who
exactly
are
we
Behemoths?
All
five
founding
members
of
Team
Iron
Behemoths
are
natural
athletes
who
compliment
our
hard,
consistent
training
with
a
variety
of
supplements
and
a
disciplined
diet.
We
train
at
different
timings
and
locations
on
weekdays
based
on
our
individual
schedules
and
meet
up
on
weekends
for
strongman-specific
training.
At
a
combined
weight
of
more
than
half-a-tonne,
Team
Iron
Behemoths
comprises
of
5
founding
members:
Jen
Li
Sheng,
24
(1.87m,
108kg)
–
A
track
athlete
in
his
school
days,
Jen
has
been
disillusioned
about
how
sports
these
days
almost
accept
drug
abuse.
He
has
since
worked
his
butt
off
and
is
now
the
Strongman
Challenge
2008
Champion.
Sam
“The
Hulk”
Lim,
25
(1.80m,
120kg)
–
This
former
ACS
Barker
track
athlete
took
gold
every
year
in
Shot
Put
and
Discus
and
set
the
records
all
the
way
from
Primary
4
to
Secondary
4,
'B'
and
'C'
Division.
He
also
holds
unofficially
Singapore's
biggest
flat
barbell
bench
press
record
of
260kg
as
well
the
biggest
deadlift
in
the
country.
The
Hulk
placed
3rd
at
the
Strongman
Challenge
despite
sustaining
a
superficial
tear
in
his
right
quadricep
3
weeks
prior.
Who
needs
drugs
when
you
have
such
strength?
Keith
Wong
the
King,
21
(1.75m,
109kg)
–
His
massive
physique
and
his
ability
to
lift
impressive
poundages
in
the
gym
(personal
parallel
barbell
squat
record
of
290kg
X
3
reps),
complimented
by
his
egotistical
proclamations
of
greatness
on
his
blog
The
Portal
for
the
Self-Absorbed
(http://keithwongtheking.blogspot.com)
since
2006
has
made
The
King
infamous
in
gyms
all
across
the
country.
People
instantly
recognise
him
in
gyms
and
on
the
streets
and
approach
him
to
ask
about
his
training
and
diet.
Keith
Wong
placed
18th
at
the
Strongman
Challenge
due
to
inexperience.
At
the
end
of
this
year,
Keith
Wong
will
be
enlisting
in
National
Service
and
inspiring
a
whole
new
lot
of
guys
to
take
up
strength-sports.
Needless
to
say,
Keith
Wong
still
has
every
intention
to
train
for
and
compete
in
the
HomeTeamNS
Challenge
next
year.
KC
Teo,
20
(1.70m,
80kg)
–
KC
shows
youths
and
smaller
guys
alike
that
you
don?t
to
be
massive
to
be
lifting
big.
This
former
school
rugby
captain
has
a
personal
record
of
deadlifting
200kg
at
a
bodyweight
of
79kg
–
a
feat
few
in
Singapore
have
accomplished.
KC
placed
13th
at
the
Strongman
Challenge
despite
undergoing
surgery
for
his
ACL
and
meniscus
barely
three
months
ago.
Together
with
Keith,
he
too
will
be
enlisting
into
NS
to
take
strongman
sports
to
many
more
people.
Ben
Ho,
29
(1.81m,
92kg)
–
Ben
is
an
example
to
newbies
and
the
busy
working
demographic.
At
29
years
of
age,
he
placed
25th
at
the
Strongman
Challenge
despite
only
2
years
of
training,
thus
showing
that
it
is
never
too
late
to
start
training
and
get
results.
Based
on
our
excellent
placings
and
personal
achievements,
Team
Iron
Behemoths
can
confidently
say
that
we
have
inspired
all
age
categories
in
the
strength-training
community
to
believe
that
it
is
possible
to
be
strong
without
steroids.
