SAVICKAS LEADS ARNOLD AFTER DAY ONE
by Al Thompson
Friday, March 03, 2006
COLUMBUS - If this is the Arnold Classic then Zydrunas Savickas is in first place of the strongman show. The three-time Arnold champion overcame a poor start in the Farmer's Walk to grab the lead after the first three events at the competition that includes one of the top lineups ever.
Slavickas finished fourth in the Timber lift then went on to earn a tie with Vasyl Varistuk in the 56-pound weight toss (it was changed after all three medicine balls were damaged in warmups and by the first throw of the competition).
The Lithuanian then blew everyone else off the stage with a record turn of eight reps in the Apollon's Wheel.
Savickas' nearest competitor had just five reps so he did not need to expend the energy to get eight. The reigning IFSA champion said he wanted to sieze the moment and share it with the considerable crowd on hand.
"It was the crowd and...there was too much time left after I hit seven," Slavickas said with a laugh. "One more was not a big problem for me."
The Timber Lift was won by Iceland's Bennedikt Magnusson in an inspirational performance clocked at 11.4 seconds. Second place went to Poland's Mariusz Pudianowski. The three-time World's Strongest Man champion carded a time of 22.93 seconds.Third place was claimed by Misha Kokliav who carried the nearly 900-pound implement 32-feet, 11.5 inches.
Finishing with the same level in the 56-pound weight toss after Slavickas and Varistuk were Dominique Filou of Canada, American Phil Pfister, Pudianowski and Benedikt.
The two competitors with five reps in the Apollon's Wheel were Varistuk and American powerlifting champion Brian Siders.
Slavickas has 26.5 points after day one followed by Varistuk with 23 points and Pudianowski with 21.5.
Pfister finished day one in fourth place with 19.5 points.
Slavickas said the only downside of the first day of competition was the tie with Varistuk in the 56-pound weight for toss. The was ended because of time constraints. "There was no time (to go another round), and Vasyl and I were tied," Slavickas said. "I thought I had a little bit better throw on the last one."
Pfister said he could have done better but was having fun watching Slavickas take over the competition.
"I was kind of upset with myself on the Farmer's Walk (Timber Lift)," Pfister said. "Zydrunas Slavickas' performance on the axel (Apollon's Wheel) was unbelievable. Brian Siders and I thought somebody would end up with seven, probably him...maybe us if we were lucky...to see do eight was really impressive. I've been expecting a performance like that at the Arnold for a while."
The events for Saturday afternoon are the Yoke Walk and the Tire Deadlift. Saturday night's finale is the Inch Dumbbell Lift to be held again this year at the Veteran's Memorial Autitorium.

SIDERS, ZYDRUNAS PUT ON WORLD CLASS DEADLIFT SHOW AT ARNOLD
by Al Thompson
Saturday, March 04, 2006
COLUMBUS - Day two at the Arnold Classic strongman show had plenty of fireworks highlighted by consecutive lifts that shredded Glenn Ross' world record in the Tire Deadlift.
Ross set the mark of 977 pounds at last year's Arnold.
Two men surpassed that mark today.
The event was officially won by West Virginia native and powerlifting champion Brian Siders with a world record lift of 988 pounds in his third and final attempt.
Siders also pulled 851 pounds in his first lift and 939 in his second.
Iceland's Bennedikt Magnusson stirred the massive crowd with his girations and a magnificent lift of 955 pounds in his second attempt. But he missed at 994 - screamming at the giant tires as tried frantically to defeat gravity one more time.
After Siders nailed 988 to win the event, three-time defending Arnold Classic Champion Zydrunas Savickas brought the house down with a curtain-call lift of 994 pounds - breaking Siders' record that lasted only a few minutes.
Siders said he asked to try to top Savickas but officials ended the competition do to time constraints.
"I was going to try all four wheels...1060 (pounds)," Siders said. "I was going to give it a shot, but they said we didn't have time."
Siders said he was not bitter at all over the decision to end the show. He said the Arnold Classic as a show overall was more important than any personal record.
"I wouldn't trade that (the record) for all the people here watching," Siders said.
Savickas said it was good for all the best strength athletes, especially his old rival Mariusz Pudianowski, to go head-to-head to see who is the best.
"It is very important to win," Savickas said. "I am IFSA World Champion and Mariusz Pudianowski is the 'World's Strongest Man' (champion). We compete together and people can see who is the strongest."
The 1100-pound Yoke Lift event was won by Savickas, who edged Vasyl Varistuk who seemed to have the event won when he carried the implement the width of the stage in 8.07 seconds.
Pudianowski was third with a time of 11.40 seconds and Raimonds Bergmanis took fourth with a time of 15.22.
Siders was fifth with a time of 18.19 and American pro strongman Phil Pfister was sixth with a time of 18.30.
The final event, the Inch Dumbbell Lift, is tonight at the Veterans Memporial Auditorium.
The full results will appear Sunday on this website.

ZYDRUNAS WINS FOURTH ARNOLD
by Al Thompson
Sunday, March 05, 2006
COLUMBUS - Zydrunas Savickas won a fourth consecutive Arnold Classic in dominating fashion. The 6-foot-3, 380-pounder cruised to the victory finishing first or tied for first in four of the six events to take home $16,000 in cash and a $20,000 watch plus other assorted prizes.
And literally for kicks the big guy set two world records in the process.
Savickas won the Yoke Walk and the Apollon's Wheel outright and tied for first in the 56-pound weight toss for height (20-foot, six inches with Vasyl Varistuk) and the Inch Dumbbell Lift (6 reps with Phil Pfister and Russia's Mikhail Koklyaev).
He set a world record in the Tire Deadlift with an encore lift of 994 pounds and with eight reps of the 366-pound Apollon's Wheel(1.92 inch diameter bar).
While the outcome went as expected, this Arnold Strongman Classic may have been the most interesting one of all.
Savickas and Varistuk finishing 1-2 was no surprise. Koklyaev's third-place finish did open some eyes, but Mariusz Pudianowski's sixth-place finish was as surprising as his reason for the poor showing from the three-time World's Strongest Man" champion.
"I didn't prepare for this competition real good so I did not expect anything from this," Pudianowski said through a translator shortly after the competition ended. "I have a different job, this sport is just my hobby. I have too much stuff on my mind right now."
Pudianowski declined to comment what his other job is that is hurting his training. Pudianowski recently dominated the competition taped for the 2005 "World's Strongest Man" Show that did not include most of the top IFSA competitors including Slavickas, Varistuk, Pfister, Svend Karlson, Koklyaev, Andrus Muramets, Jarno Hams, Geoff Dolan, Karl Gillingham, Steve Kirit and Travis Ortmayer.
The final event, the Inch Dumbbell Lift, proved to be the most difficult, especially for Pudianowski, who was not able to record a single rep and was clearly frustrated when his time elapsed, slamming the massive dumbbell from his shoulder to the floor.
Only five competitors were able to record any lifts of the cartoonish-looking implement that weighed 195-pounds and featured a three-inch-in-diameter handle.
American powerlifter Brian Siders was the fourth to try the giant dumbbell and the first to record an overhead rep.
Pfister was next and he rocked the capacity crowd at the Memorial Auditorium with six reps. The West Virginia native and current IFSA Continental Champion then threw his shirt into the crowd in celebration of the great turn. Pfister finished fourth overall.
Koklyaev then duplicated Pfister's feat with six reps of his own. Then Varistuk was able to nail four before Savickas finished the competiton with his six reps.
Earlier Savickas had said it was good for all the best strength athletes, especially his old rival Pudianowski, to go head-to-head to see who is the best.
"It is very important to win," Slavickas said. "I am IFSA World Champion and Mariusz Pudianowski is the 'World's Strongest Man' (champion). We compete together and people can see who is the strongest."
Later Savickas was asked if the people got to see who was truly the strongest man on the planet over the weekend, the Lithuanian giant replied without hesitation..."yes."
