You're getting a bit ahead of yourself aren't you son?

I'd say it's more of a qualifying type deal.
You win the local strongman, then the regionals, then the nationals, then I s'pose you take on the worlds best.

Your best bet would be to go to a local gym and ask around.. see if there are any local comps in your area.. I'm sure most competitors would know a lot more about qualifying than us.

Oh and while you're at the gym you could start working out too...
