  • Edward Aston - Britain's Strongest Man

    • From 1911 to 1934, Edward Aston held the title of Britain's Strongest Man.

    Judging by this picture, it's not hard to see why.

    One of Aston's "Secrets" was to pay particular attention to strengthening the grip and forearm.

    He employed a number of different exercises to build his hand strength but one of his favorites was to do one-arm timed holds on a climbing rope.    		Edward Aston - Britain's Strongest Man- Edward Aston -
