About 70 strongmen and strongwomen will take part in a competition Saturday at Lightning Fitness in South Windsor.
It's the fifth such competition that the gym has hosted, the proceeds of which will be donated to the Wounded Warrior Project, according to Lightning Fitness owner Matt Mills.
Among the events are a car lift - yes a Chrysler will actually be lifted - a dumbbell press and a yolk walk.
Hundreds of spectators are expected to turn out for the event, which is scheduled to start at 10 a.m. and continue all day.
Lightning Fitness is located at 259E Sullivan Ave. in South Windsor.
