Žydrūnas Savickas (born July 15, 1975 in Biržai, Lithuania) is a professional strongman and is widely considered one of the all-time greatest athletes in the history of the sport.[2] Zydrunas is the only modern strongman competitor to have won every major modern strongman competition, most notably the Arnold Strongman Classic on six consecutive occasions, the IFSA World Championship twice, Fortissimus in 2009, and is a 2 time World's Strongest Man champion in 2009 & 2010.[2] Zydrunas placed 2nd at the 2011 World's Strongest Man competition, losing the title to American Brian Shaw. He stands 1.91 m (6 ft 3 in) and competes at 170 kg (375 lb).[3]

[edit] Powerlifting and 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, and in his second powerlifting contest he broke all the Lithuanian records. He is the only Lithuanian to squat over 400 kg. 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.

A contest in the Faroe Islands in 2001 dealt Savickas a major setback, as he tore both patellar tendons during the conan's wheel event. Many believed that the extent of the injury meant that his career was over. However, nine months later Savickas won the Lithuanian powerlifting championships, and a short time later he also won the 2002 Lithuania's Strongest Man contest. Savickas would go on to finish in 2nd place at the 2002 World's Strongest Man in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He would finish in 2nd place 3 more times in 2003, 2004 and 2011, and 1st place at the 2009 and 2010 World's Strongest Man contests.

Savickas won the Arnold Strongman Classic six consecutive times from 2003–2008. Savickas won the IFSA Euopean Championships in 2005 which qualified him for the world championships. In September 2005, he broke three world records and won the IFSA Strongman World Championships in Quebec, Canada. Savickas won the 2005 IFSA World Team Championships with Team Europe and won the IFSA World Championships for a 2nd time in 2006 in Reykjavík, Iceland. In 2007, Savickas finished in 3rd place at the last ever IFSA World Championships behind runner-up Mikhail Koklyaev and Champion Vasyl Virastyuk in Geumsan, South Korea.

On October 24, 2005, Savickas represented Lithuania in a team competition with Vidas Blekaitis, Saulius Brusokas, and Vilius Petrauskas. Team Lithuania team placed 5th overall at the IFSA World's Strongest Nation contest in Ukraine.

Savickas was the reigning 2009 and 2010 World's Strongest Man champion, but placed second to Brian Shaw in the 2011 competition. He also won Europe's Strongest Man in 2010. Savickas won Fortissimus in 2009 after finishing runner-up in 2008 behind Derek Poundstone. Savickas is the 3 time reigning World Log Lift Championships winner in 2008, 2009 and 2011(there was no contest held in 2010). In 2009 he set a world record in the log lift with 205 kg.

On April 15, 2011 Zydrunas set a new Guinness World Record performing a 20 meter Farmer's Walk in 7.55 seconds with 150 kg (330 lb) implements in each hand. The event was broadcast on the Guinness TV show in Europe.[4]

Savickas won 5 Strongman Champions League events during the 2011/2012 season, in Finland in March 2011, Germany on April 16, 2011,[5] the SCL Semi-finals in Canada in Oct. 2011, Latvia in Nov 2011 and the SCL Finals in Sarajevo, Bosnia on Feb. 7, 2012.[6] During the SCL Finals in Sarajevo, Savickas set a new world record in the log lift with 215 kg (470 lb).[7] This was his 7th consecutive world record in the log lift, not including his world record in the giant wooden log lift set at the 2010 World's Strongest Man contest.[8]
