Ever tried Curling and Pressing two 20kg dumbbells as many times as you can? No resting - just one almighty session of heavy lifting where you don’t stop till you drop!?

Welcome to the Dragan Challenge, a simple yet brutal test of strength and endurance. For the past 5years, the Dragan Challenge has established itself as one of SENI’s most exciting contests, with 59yr old fitness master ‘Dragan’ battling it out against all-comers for the title of Endurance Lifting Champion.

This year the prize money on offer is bigger than ever before, as Dragan teams up with his two sons to offer a potential £10,000 prize. Only one important question still remains: Can you slay the Dragans?

Rajko to compete in this years Dragan Challenge…
Competing in this year’s challenge will be Dragan’s youngest son Rajko. A recent contender in the BBC hit seriesLast Man Standing, Rajko traveled the globe with his 5 fellow athletes, taking on tribesmen in extreme indigenous sports. Having only recently returned from the tribes, Rajko now joins forces with his father (Dragan) and older brother (Luka) to take on all-comers in The Dragan Challenge. The question is who will be the Last Man Standing this time?
