“I tell every single person, learn a skilled trade first.” 
– Adam Scherr

Coming in at 6 feet, 8 inches tall and 335 pounds, Strongman champion Adam Scherr is quite the force. But behind his massive following and championship record, you’ll find a story of hard work that was born in the auto shop.

Adam’s early years aren’t unlike those of the students at Universal Technical Institute. He’s a firm believer in the trades, which is why he’s teamed up with us and is heading back to school!

As a kid, Adam was bullied and had learning disabilities. In his teen years, he discovered a passion for working on cars. College wasn’t for him, so he decided to pursue a decade-plus career as an auto technician, working hands-on in the shop.

Being able to fix anything that came through those shop doors inspired Adam to grow his physical strength and move into pro wrestling. He trained for and won the 2011 NAS Amateur Strongman Championships in 2011 and the Arnold Amateur World Strongman Championship in 2012.

One thing led to the next, and Adam eventually became known in the WWE® as Superstar Braun Strowman! While he trained for his competitions, he stayed true to his first passion and worked at his local tire shop in North Carolina.

To this day, Adam continues to be an advocate for the skilled trades and the exciting career paths they offer.1

“I’m a firm believer that if you believe in yourself, the rest of the world will believe in you. If you do what you love for a living, you never work a day in your life.” — Adam Scherr
