I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'olympic venue' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'strongman almost crushes worker' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'worker' could be 'ant' (worker is a type of ant) and 'ant' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for atlanta that I've seen before include "Georgian capital" , "1996 Summer Olympics venue" , "American city" , "Georgian location" , "Capital city of Georgia, USA" .)
