Richard Sandrak, Little Hercules, is 12 years old and packs 100lbs onto his 4' 10" frame. He boasts measurements of 35" chest, 12" biceps and 19" thighs. His training routines are not publicly detailed but all will soon be revealed in a video outlining the regime that led to Richard becoming the world's strongest boy.
