Luke Stoltman (born 22 November 1984) is a Scottish strongman competitor from Invergordon, Scotland.[2] He is a five-time winner of Scotland's Strongest Man, and in 2021 won Europe's Strongest Man.[3] He is the older brother of the current World's Strongest Man, Tom Stoltman. Both the Stoltman brothers are athlete ambassadors for home gym supplier Mirafit.
Before and during his strongman career, Stoltman has been a dimensional surveyor working on oil rigs, as a result of which he has been unable to train for two weeks out of a month for most of his career.[citation needed] He along with his brother Tom are the only brothers in history to reach the finals of the World's Strongest Man.
