We caught up with 2015 America's Strongest Man winner Dimitar Savatinov and chatted about his training, what his next shows are, how he's feeling from the weekend, and more. Here are some of the highlights:

​On his training leading into ASM:

For me the first thing is you've gotta set the plan if you want to achieve something. It doesnt really matter if it's training or you're gonna write a book or you wanna win a car race: you've gotta have a plan. I always write down a plan for my training before a big contest like that.
On his 465lb attempt at the American Record Log Press:

I just lost balance. I think it felt too light when I pressed it and I hurried up to stand up a little faster than I usually do because it really felt light and I lost the balance because of that.
On his recovery from the event:

I feel okay. Actually, I felt pretty good leading into the contest. I've been working with Trevor Kashey my nutritionist and my recovery has been great. My body is recharging right away. I was able to do another contest on Sunday after the five events. I was not sore, no pain.
