The All-American Strongman Challenge is a leading competition in strength athletics that takes place within the annual Californian FitExpo.
Although North America has a number of prestigious strongman events determining the "Strongest Man in America", the "Strongest Man in Canada" and the "Strongest Man in North America", the All-American Strongman Challenge has added kudos because it is open to entrants from overseas with the potential to bring in leading international competitors as well.
It is notable for the calibre of entrants it has attracted, with many World's Strongest Man finalists being represented.
