Joe Taylor

Devon

Canada

Although 2000 was Joe's first season, he's shown remarkable talent, taking to the games quite naturally. In addition to the heavy events, Joe is slowly gathering experience and strength for his career in the field of strongman. Much more recently, Joe has earned the right to be considered a full Amateur A athlete, doing so in near record time and rising to the challenge, putting up bigger numbers in almost every competition.
