We would like to hear the story of your first exposure with the world of sports, as well as your first visit to the gym and training.
When and how was it?
– Yes, I really love sports, love to test themselves in the sport.? Sports lured me from childhood, so at school I visited all the sports? with? the projections, which have only been in the district – wushu, judo, dancing, shaping, aerobics.
In the gym, I came in the summer after high school to the banal reason.? My tendency to corpulence was bugging me and I wanted to correct the figure.? Plus my friends are highly praised the coach, whom I met there and later.? It was Sergei Mikhailovich Tetyanyuk-deserved trainer of Ukraine on weightlifting, which saw in me a future “mezhdunarodnitsu.”? His first training course, I remember: when I arrived, Hall was still closed.? After some time the coach came from some guy who immediately aroused my sympathy.? When we entered the hall, the coach began to show posters and photos that were plastered walls.? He talked about the achievements of the athletes pictured on them, was among them, and the guy with whom they came in, he also named Sergei.? Of course,? his words touched my soul, and I wanted to take his place on this “honor roll”.? I performed all the exercises, which I showed the coach for some reason, was delighted with the interest of giving me a complex exercise, which I readily fulfilled.? For example, the jerk, I turned immediately, while others are beginners can not even do a full saddle with a barbell above his head, and after I pressed 40 kg on the horizontal bar, the coach told me to speak at the event.? Of course, I agree, it all started then…
Do you remember his competitive debut?
– Oh? , it was just a sea of emotions.
Competitions were held in the town of White Church, it was the Championship of Kyiv region.? I was afraid to take a coach and, like all beginners, very nervous, but when I got to the platform? and can easily handle the weight, I realized that my experience gives me strength.? So I learned what courage and how they should use it.? Since then, I’m always in competition raised more than training.
– Now come on, divide, probably five, maybe more parts of your answer.After all, I would like to know the history of success in every conquered thee sport.
Where do we start?
– Weightlifting, I practiced for long, since I began a relationship with a guy? who was on my first workout, and whose name was Sergei.? He was at that time was active athletes in powerlifting and novice coach.? He then lured me into powerlifting (later we got married and my personal coach is always there).? The result did not take long, a year later with a small, winged feelings, I performed standard of master of sports of international class Powerlifting Championship of Ukraine in Odessa.
Reaching this goal, we decided that we can get back to basics and try their hand at weightlifting, as the level of force has increased significantly, it was necessary to work on technique.? After a break of one and a half years? I have again changed its training in squats, zhimah and rods on the jumps and tremors.? And on the first training session after the break, I pushed the 90 kg.
There is a perception that athletes who have not achieved great heights in weightlifting, can try their luck in powerlifting, but none as vice versa, because weightlifting is strongly enslaves.? With me, everything turned out the opposite.? After another 1.5 years in Ilyichevsk I have collected the sum of biathlon 215 pounds (95 kg snatch + push 120 kg) following a cherished standard of master of sports of international class.? At age 20, after 3.5 years of study I became “mezhdunarodnitsey in two sports.
I prefer not to share this time on sports, as dealt with in parallel and m? yazheloy athletics and “lifting”.? And in regional competitions always came to support the team with his performance.
In the boating accident has brought me, and this period coincided with my first training for a competition in bodybuilding.? The whole point is that the club where I work, participated in the competition for “dragonbotu” among sports clubs.? Assembled a team of everyone and began training.? Every Saturday in summer 2009, our team gathered on the Dnieper River and practice hard.? At the club competitions, our team took second place, but on this we decided not to stop and began preparing for the national championship.? June was the second championship of Ukraine “dragonbotu” in Kiev.? After seeing my performance for the team of the club, coach of women’s national team in Kiev invited to support their team a “strong hand”, as a result we finished first.? So everything turned out.
Yet once I had the opportunity to participate in the? Ukrainian championship in tug-? of? Anata among women, the team collected the most powerful girls near Kiev.? Of course, we won, and again I accidentally became a champion of Ukraine in the “strange” for me as a sport …
Championship of Kiev in 2009 was my debut in bodybuilding.? After the birth of a daughter in 2007, I gained a lot of excess weight within 2 weeks after giving birth, I ran into the hall, hoping to lose weight quickly.? But instead I gained even more, muscle mass increased and zhirok was motionless.? Intensive training had to be postponed for a year.? Only after I had ceased to breastfeed a child, I noticed that the train began to bring the desired result.? So one day, at work, noticing that my? muscles are becoming visible, I jokingly said: “And do not speak for me on bodybuilding ..!?».? Beside her husband at this moment Amir was already a seasoned bodybuilder, they looked at each other, looked at me attentively and seriously answered: “Why not?” – And then obsessed with me, you know the result …
– I wonder how the training process is built athlete-universalki?– I think that it does not differ greatly from the training of other athletes, the only thing I can say is the mark of weightlifting and powerlifting.? I love big weights and strength training.
– Who is helping you achieve success in sports?– I have a whole team of assistants, but the most important of them – my husband, he always cares about my daily routine during training, especially in bodybuilding, it is very important.? Everything is on the clock, and he makes sure I followed this regime.? Always interested in new products on the market of sports nutrition, and it’s in me always the best.? Amir Olfatmanesh has a wealth of competitive and training experience, which we implement in preparation for competitions.? I have a permanent consultant sports physician who competently monitors the state of my health during the diets and intense workouts.? Just choreographer Xenia and other consultants.? Much thanks to them for their righteous cause!
– Was there a time in your athletic career curiosities?– Oba? chno everything runs smoothly, but there were some funny moments.? I am of them? keep silence, so as not to offend members of these anecdotes.
– Upon completion of the competition allow yourself to be as “off”?– For me, torn off? sya – it’s fun to perform at competitions, and after just want to relax.? I prefer a relaxing holiday in nature, so as to alcohol entirely indifferent and do not like noisy parties.
– Which sport is next?– While all the forces I give bodybuilding a sport that has no age restrictions, so I can “get stuck” for a long time …
– What had to sacrifice for the sake of sport?– When I started to? play sports at the same time I began studying at the Institute of Traditional Medicine in the Faculty of Dentistry.? I really liked there to learn, and I was in love with anatomy, I wanted to know everything, but did not want to miss workouts.? The first time I combined the lessons in the hall and school, but soon ceased to keep pace, preferring to training.? Medicine is a serious matter, and time for a thorough study lacked.? So I decided that the best going good sportsman than a bad doctor.? So, having studied for two semesters, I sacrificed a career for the sake of sport of the future dentist.? A year later I joined the National University of Physical Education and Sport, which is never regretted.
– The components of your formula for success in the sport?– Self-confidence and optimism.? Positive thinking, love of work and dedication.
This formula allows us to achieve success in all things, and not just in sports.
