Alexey Semerenko – road to victory # Armwrestling # Armpower.net

Alexey does no “secret” exercises. Most of his workout consists of bodybuilding exercises. ()

I first met Alexey Semerenko at the EC’s in Lithuania, 2001. He weighed 80 kg back then. I remember how surprised I was when he told me that to get there he usually has to cut some 8 – 10 kg. I didn’t think this was actually possible, much less healthy. In 2002, Aleksey decided to drop this habit and he went up to 110 instantly. His shape and power levels changed along with his weight, and this allowed him to go pro. When PAL offered him a chance to fight for the European championship, Aleksey accepted joyfully. His victory over Taras Ivakin wasn’t easy, especially seeing as he’s lost to him many times before.
