Despite finishing in seventh place in the Wheel of Pain during the first event of the 2023 Arnold Strongwoman Classic, Victoria Long managed to turn her performance around. On the first day of competition, Long ended the day with a fourth-place finish, and she didn’t look back.

On Day Two of the competition, Victoria Long was in top form. She won all three events, solidifying her victory at the 2023 Arnold Strongwoman Classic. Her performance in the Elephant Bar Deadlift was especially impressive, as she broke the previous world record of 641 pounds, set by Tamara Walcott, by 10 pounds.
