Previously, the athlete had already set records with lighter weights, but this time he managed to surpass his previous achievements. The main difficulty was the specific interaction with the railway cars.
“I felt great. My mood was excellent, and of course, it was a real surge of emotions and joy after I moved the train weighing 165,900 kilograms for six meters,” Alexey shared.
He noted that the process of dragging railway platforms has its nuances. Unlike cars, where friction occurs between rubber and asphalt, here one must consider the friction between metal, numerous wheel pairs, and the significant length of the coupling.“With each new record and each additional car, the process becomes more complicated, as the increase in weight leads to additional friction and effort,” the athlete added.
The national record is now officially registered. Alexey Tepliyashin intends to continue his training and achieve new heights, aiming to work with even greater weights and demonstrate the capabilities of strength sports in Kyrgyzstan.
