| Time in the sport |
| |
I started in 1999. Watched a competition and got completely "hooked". I was doing free-style wrestling for 10 year prior. Had my first armwrestling tournament in the fall of 1999, took 3rd place but was convinced I could do even better... Took a year of break while traveling in 2000-2001. Started competing in Canada in 2002. Have been actively competing since.
|
| Weight |
| |
65 kg at the Nationals and Worlds. But in Canada and US -70 kg if no -65 kg is offered. |
| Forearm |
| |
Big enough for a small guy... |
| Biceps |
| |
Never bothered to measure, but I can do 4*6 pull ups with 145 lb over my waste... |
| Fighting style |
| |
Left arm: top roll / hook
Right arm: high hook |
| Toughest opponent |
| |
In North America - Rick Soliwada, Corey Miller, Chris Gobby.
Worldwide: Roman Tsindeliani, Alex Voronetskiy, Steve Kirlew, there are more... |
| Toughest match |
| |
Mentally, would have been a match with Ivan Portela of Spain, left at the Worlds in 2003 (came out with a win).
Physically, winning the 3 out of 5 supermatch against Dan Bullefuell at F.A.M.E. in Toronto in 2005. |
| Merits |
| |
6 times Canadian National Champion.
2002 bronze medalist at the Worlds in Springfield, USA (left 65 kg).
2003 bronze medalist at the Worlds in Ottawa, CA (left 60 kg).
2004 left arm champion and Harley Sportster winner at Harley Pull (left 63 kg).
Many other tournaments around the N. America....(around 50-60 trophies all together...) |
| Best training advice |
| |
Combination of armwrestling specifics and strength training in the gym; keeping healthy and injury-free; constantly challenging yourself during the practices.
|

| |
John Brzenk, Earl Wilson, Devon Larratt, Travis Bagent and many more... |
| Unknown talents |
| |
10+ years of free-style wrestling at the national level back in Belarus.
I play a bass guitar in a little rock band.... |
| What changes to the sport would you like to see? |
| |
More pro-events, like Zloty, Arnolds, ROTN, Mohegan Sun.
More TV coverage, getting into Olympics at last. |
| Goals |
| |
Winning the Nationals next year again; travel a little more often to US to attend more tournaments down there.
