I started my adventure with the Moscow Physical Education Faculty 6 years ago. Due to the fact that I live in Poland and the University is in Moscow studying was quite burdensome. But I’ve finally graduated.

Before Igor took his thesis defence two days earlier he had got across many rather difficult oral exams. On the 30th May 2012 Igor Mazurenko stood in front of the comity and defended his thesis entitled “Comparative Analysis of the Professionals’ Armwrestling World Cup” and this way he got the title of MA degree in specialty of pedagogy: Armwrestling trainer.

“My thesis composed of 98 pages.

On an example of two players - Andrea Pushkar from Ukraine and Denis Cyplenkov from Russia – in a general concept, I showed the difference in preparations for the tournaments and I looked for an answer to a question: Why did Pushkar approximated his strength result to Cyplenkov’s one in last three years. An example of that was Ukrainian player’s victory on the left arm at the Professionals’ World Cup in 2011 in  Ozarow Mazowiecki” – said Igor Mazurenko after home-coming, and continued “About 20 other competitors of different sports were defending with me, including: judo, king-boxing, sambo and basketball players. Luckily, we’ve all managed to defend our thesis”.
 

Archived for 75 year!
Due to the fact that Igor Mazurenko got ‘very good’ for his defence, his thesis will be stored in an archive of Physical Education Faculty for 75years.
 

Congratulations.
