AMERICUS — Bushey defends Strongman title

A shout out goes to Ryan Bushey.

Mr. Strongman defended his title Saturday, edging out former South Georgia Stars teammate Luke Bryan by a 40-39 score to win the second-ever Strongman Competition put on by Southwest Georgia Fitness.

Bushey won four of the five events last year, but the competition was stiffer this time. He won the truck pull and one-armed overhead press while finishing second in two other events and third in another.

Buck Kinney and his crew should also be commended for their work in putting the event together as somewhere between 150 and 200 people came out to watch six guys go muscle to muscle in some crazy events.
