〔http://en.allpowerlifting.com/lifters/LTU/savickas-zydrunas-2117/〕 〔 〔 Žydrūnas Savickas ((:ʒiːdˈrûːnɐs sɐˈvʲɪt͡skɐs); born July 15, 1975) is a Lithuanian powerlifter and professional strongman. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest strongman competitors of all time, being the only modern strongman competitor to have won every current major strongman competition - many times in multiple years.〔(2011 MHP Log Lift World Championships ). Ironmind.com (2011-01-20). Retrieved on 2011-03-19.〕 He stands 1.91 m (6 ft 3 in) and competes at 180 kg (400 lb). Savickas is often referred to by his nickname, "Big Z". ==Powerlifting/Strongman career== Savickas first became interested in strength sports after watching a Lithuanian strongman contest on TV in 1989. Three years later, he took part in that same strongman contest, and defeated a number of older and more experienced competitors. At age 17, Savickas began to train in powerlifting. In his second powerlifting contest, he broke all the Lithuanian records. In 1998, Savickas won his first Lithuania's Strongest Man contest. He would later go on to win this contest a total of 7 times. Savickas then competed in the 1998 and 2000 World's Strongest Man contests, but failed to qualify for the finals both times. He won the silver medal in the World powerlifting championship in Japan with a total of 1020 kg, just 2.5 kg behind Brad Gillingham. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Žydrūnas Savickas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
