This article is about the taunt. For the cosmetic item with a similar name, see Soviet Strongmann.

The Soviet Strongarm is a community-created Action taunt for the Heavy. When activated, the Heavy will pull out two large Dumbbells and begin doing a 'cross body hammer curl' exercise. After a certain time has passed the Heavy will re-adjust his shoulders and begin again. When the player ends the taunt the Heavy will stretch out his arms and drop the dumbbells on the ground.

The Soviet Strongarm was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
