The personal and team championship of the Republic of Kazakhstan in weightlifting among men and women continues in Taldykorgan . 212 athletes (136 men, 76 women) from 17 regions of the country competed for the awards.
Special attention from experts and fans was focused on the 14-year-old child prodigy from the Almaty region, Ksenia Prozorova: within 9 months, she became a two-time absolute champion of Kazakhstan among adults.
"I am 14 years old. I have been doing weightlifting for 4 years. I was born and live in the Almaty region. I have already become a two-time champion of Kazakhstan among adults. In February, at the ChRK in Kostanay, I competed in the weight category up to 55 kg. There, I lifted 80 kg in the snatch, and 95 kg in the clean and jerk and became the absolute champion. This time, I moved up a weight category and also had no equal.
I am trained by Azamat Nurullaev and Emir Abatov. I achieve results through regimen, discipline, diet and training. We have everything on time. Now I am preparing to compete in the Youth Olympics. But my main goal is to defend the honor of Kazakhstan at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles," said Ksenia Prozorov.
The Kazakhstan Weightlifting Championships among men and women will end on November 19.
