In the following, you will find our interview with this champion.
What’s your favorite powerlifting exercise, and why do you find it particularly effective?
The bench press holds a special place as my favored exercise. Over time, through dedicated practice and training, I experienced a progressive improvement in my proficiency with this particular movement. As athletes often express, the motion became ingrained within my physique.
In the context of this exercise, I even developed unique techniques tailored to my specific needs. For instance, I crafted distinctive approaches concerning the positioning of my fingers and feet, which others regarded as my signature style. My body has assumed a natural disposition for this particular movement, a predisposition cultivated since my early childhood.
As a powerlifting champion, you must have a dedicated team behind you. How do your coaches and support system contribute to your achievements?
This sport was in its infancy, devoid of established pioneers to provide guidance. Consequently, I assumed primary responsibility for devising training regimens and methodologies. Throughout my training, I conscientiously enlisted the assistance of my friends and fellow trainees as external observers, akin to a third eye. Their role was to assess and provide feedback on the precision and accuracy of my movements, contributing to the refinement of my techniques.
How do you maintain motivation during training and when facing setbacks?
I did not intend to occupy the first position, and concurrently, I was experiencing discomfort. The fundamental premise of exercise should inherently yield an improved state of well-being. Consequently, I thoroughly examined the underlying factors contributing to my condition, crafting solutions to address them.
On occasions, the culprits were either excessive training or insufficient rest, which necessitated adjustments in my training routine. It became apparent that training alongside individuals who perpetually lamented and incessantly discussed their injuries could inadvertently influence one’s physical condition and potentially lead to injuries. In response, I took measures to distance myself from such individuals or sought alternative training environments.
Have you encountered any misconceptions about powerlifting or the sport’s culture that you would like to address?
Simultaneously with the advent of televised competitions, a trend emerged wherein many powerlifters achieved champion status in these televised events. Consequently, a prevailing sentiment of skepticism and apprehension enveloped this discipline, with concerns about its potential for harm. There was a widespread misconception that powerlifting necessitated an almost superhuman strength and power.
A further misunderstanding arose within the context of fitness clubs and gyms. This misunderstanding stemmed from powerlifting sharing spaces with bodybuilding and fitness disciplines. When a powerlifter demonstrated their capacity to lift substantial weights, it was often misinterpreted as an attempt to showcase their strength for ostentation. These individuals were primarily focused on surpassing their own personal records and achievements as powerlifters.
In response to these misconceptions and misinterpretations, we procured our weights. We discreetly placed them in a secluded section of the gym, taking precautions to secure them to prevent any potential damage to the gym’s equipment.
What do you enjoy most about being a powerlifting champion and representing the sport to a broader audience?
Voting to elect the president of the World Federation, Dubai,2019
I am fully prepared to impart my wealth of experiences to athletes within this domain, encompassing various facets such as training methodologies, the intricacies of competition, and more. Moreover, my background as a former athlete positions me to make judicious decisions in refereeing, ensuring that athletes’ rights with dedicated substantial effort and training are justly preserved.
My commitment to prioritizing my health through the pursuit of sports has proven to be a judicious choice. I now appreciate its profound benefits on my mental and physical well-being.
What changes would you like to see in the powerlifting community or the sport itself in the future?
The strategic objective on the horizon entails participating in the Olympics within two years. I hold this aspiration with great enthusiasm, cherishing the hope that it will come to fruition. As this sport becomes integrated into the Olympic framework, nations will likely allocate dedicated budgets for its development. This, in turn, will provide talented young athletes with a structured pathway toward achieving greater milestones and accomplishments in the discipline.

Detroit/Orlando-based band VANGOGO is thrilled to announce the release of their newest single, “Party All The Time,” a modern recreation of the Eddie Murphy cult classic originally released in 1985. The song will hit all major streaming sites at midnight on November 10th, 2023.
Eddie Murphy’s recording and release of the song were the result of a $100,000 bet made between Eddie Murphy and Richard Pryor, wagering on whether Murphy had singing talent or not. Murphy collaborated with Rick James, and the song came to life in Rick James’ studio in Buffalo, New York. The song reached #2 on the Billboard charts and proved that Murphy was more than just an actor and a comedian. The song was reintroduced to a new generation of listeners by way of the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and remains a favorite among Eddie’s fans.
VANGOGO is composed of Nathan Mackinder (Vocals/Guitar), Jason Schaller (Lead Guitar/Backing Vocals), Paxton Olney (Bass), and Jonah Brockman (Drums/Backing Vocals/Keys).
VANGOGO presents a dark, great, twist on this 80s masterpiece while maintaining its danceability and the fusion of familiar musical nods to Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean.” International recording artist and flutist Carrie Wiesinger introduces the signature melody at the start of the song and continues to bring her warm, welcoming tone to the mix as the song progresses. (Wiesinger is married to guitarist, Schaller.) Brockman, a multi-instrumentalist, added synthesized strings and glockenspiel to set the mood for the song’s winding tale of infidelity. The song intensifies over the course of its 3 minutes and 43 seconds journey and ends with a timeless quote from the “King of Punk-Funk,” Rick James himself.
Schaller says, “When Nate first sent the song to the band, it was a recording of him with his acoustic guitar, and we didn’t know what to think.” He continues, “Before the song got to the chorus, I didn’t recognize that it was a cover. Nate was going through a bad breakup at the time, and I honestly thought it was him using a clever way with words to express his emotions. However, Nate had actually identified a way to bring a legendary song back to life.”
What happened next was magic. Mackinder and Brockman worked from Brockman’s home studio to develop the theme. Once that happened, the band went to Pearl Sound Studios to work with Super Producer Chuck Alkazian (KISS, Asking Alexandria, Eminem) and bring “Party All The Time” back.
Mackinder remarked, “I’m really happy with the way everything came together. Everyone brought their creative energy to the final production, and I am excited to see where this takes all of us.”
VANGOGO plans to bring “Party All The Time” to radio, as it did with its last four singles: “Both of Us,” “Big Mistake,” “Watch it Burn,” and “Get Up To You.”
With their Detroit roots, the band has included a special tribute to one of Detroit’s most recognizable brands, Shinola, by the recreation of the original album art with a VANGOGO twist. There’s a Shinola timepiece on the wrist of the skeleton, counting the moments to last call. In addition, the band celebrated the completion of their first record in a suite at the Shinola Hotel, which included a photo shoot in the alley behind the building.
VANGOGO is endorsed by GHS Strings and Reverend Guitars. Also, catch VANGOGO live in Sanford, Florida, at the West End Trading Co. on Saturday, November 11th, and just north of Detroit at the Diesel Concert Lounge on Friday, December 15th.

In the quest for a revolutionary development of energy and mobility, it is impossible to overestimate the importance of efficient, durable and reliable energy storage systems, says Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG. At present, lithium batteries occupy a central place among manufacturers. However, implementing cleaner production concepts and optimizing products to improve efficiency, safety and affordability requires going beyond lithium technology. This has spurred on the innovation efforts of research institutes and companies to explore alternative technologies, which have already led to promising breakthroughs. This was discussed by global manufacturers at the largest international exhibition of batteries and energy storage systems ees Europe 2023.
Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG on the future of energy storage presented at ees Europe 2023
As the world embraces renewable energy and the electric vehicle industry continues to grow, one critical element is coming to the fore: energy storage, such as batteries. The demand for efficient, safe and economical batteries is constantly growing, pushing manufacturers to explore new technological and environmental frontiers.
According to Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG, lithium batteries have traditionally been the main choice of manufacturers. However, the industry is now taking a giant leap towards greener and more innovative practices. Manufacturers have made significant strides in developing environmentally friendly manufacturing processes in an effort to make batteries that are not only more efficient, but also safer and more affordable.
Exciting developments in battery technology were showcased at ees Europe, the largest international trade fair for batteries and energy storage systems. Over 950 vendors came together to showcase their latest products and solutions, offering a glimpse into the future of energy storage systems.
– The ees Europe conference participants had an exclusive opportunity to explore the benefits of lithium batteries and at the same time get to know the potential of new alternatives. These new battery technologies promise to revolutionize the industry, paving the way for more sustainable energy success, – said Stanislav Kondrashov of Telf AG as one of the energy conference participants.
ees Europe, an integral part of The smarter E Europe, took place from 14 to 16 June at Messe München with Intersolar Europe, PowerDrive Europe and EM-Power Europe. It was attended by 2,400 exhibitors and over 85,000 visitors from 160 countries, making it the most important event for professionals and enthusiasts.
As the world strives for a greener future, ees Europe 2023 has become a beacon of innovation, providing a platform for new technologies that will define the future of energy storage and revolutionize sustainability.
Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG: spotlight on sodium-ion batteries
Sodium-ion batteries have become a very promising alternative to their lithium counterparts. They have a number of advantages that make them an attractive choice for the energy storage industry. According to Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG, this revolutionary technology not only demonstrates excellent environmental benefits, but also increases operational safety.
One of the key factors driving the popularity of sodium-ion batteries is the abundance and availability of sodium. As a natural component of salt, sodium is readily available in significant amounts, making it an easier and more economical option than lithium. In addition, sodium batteries do not require the use of cobalt or nickel, further enhancing their environmental appeal and reducing reliance on critical materials.
– Safety is another area in which sodium-ion batteries have a special place, – Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG says. – Their composition and design minimizes the risk of potential hazards during operation, providing safer and more stable energy storage.
In addition, the materials used in sodium-ion batteries make them easier to separate and recycle, simplifying the disposal process and promoting a greener approach to energy storage technology. The German Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing has recognized sodium-ion batteries as “drop-in” technology, which means they can be easily integrated into batch production of batteries with minimal disruption.
Innovative vendors at ees Europe included the dynamic company Kite-Rise Technology, which offers its advanced sodium ion solutions, demonstrating the widespread interest and investment in this environmentally friendly technology. In addition, the Chinese company CATL has announced plans for mass production this year, further confirming the commercial viability of sodium-ion batteries.
As the world seeks sustainable and safe energy solutions, sodium-ion batteries are taking the lead, offering a range of benefits that differentiate them from traditional lithium batteries, says Telf AG’s Stanislav Kondrashov. ees Europe 2023 is the essential platform for industry professionals and enthusiasts to explore the potential of sodium-ion technology and its transformative impact on energy storage improvements.
Zinc Battery Storage Systems: Advantages and Challenges by Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG
Zinc battery storage systems do present both challenges and opportunities in energy storage technology. Let’s take a closer look at these key points.
Advantages of storage systems on zinc batteries:
Simple design and high safety. Zinc battery systems are known for their relatively simple design, which makes them easy to manufacture and maintain. In addition, they are considered safer than some other battery technologies, which is an important consideration for large-scale energy storage systems.
Non-toxic battery components. The use of non-toxic battery components, according to Sanislav Kondrashov Telf AG, is an important aspect of environmental friendliness. Unlike some other types of batteries, which may contain hazardous materials, zinc batteries are a more environmentally friendly option.
Abundance of raw materials. Zinc is available in sufficient quantities and can be mined within the EU, reducing dependence on imports from distant regions. This localization of raw material sources can also have a positive economic impact on the EU countries.
Environmental friendliness. As already mentioned, zinc batteries do not require the use of cobalt and nickel, minerals whose extraction and processing are often associated with environmental and ethical issues. Eliminating the use of these materials may result in a more environmentally friendly battery option.
Compatible with existing manufacturing processes.
“Zinc battery technology can leverage existing manufacturing processes, which means manufacturers can more easily integrate this technology into their existing infrastructure,” – explains Stanislav Kondrashov of Telf AG.
Zinc Battery Storage Problems
Limited recharge. According to available information, one of the main disadvantages of zinc batteries is their limited ability to recharge. This means that they are not designed for repeated charge and discharge cycles, which is an important consideration for many energy storage systems where batteries need to be recharged and used repeatedly.
Disposal requirements.
– Since recharging is not yet possible, zinc batteries must be disposed of after use, – emphasizes Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG. – The recycling process involves the complete recycling of a battery in order to extract useful materials and prepare them for use in new batteries. The development of efficient and cost-effective disposal methods will be of great importance in managing the end-of-life phase of zinc batteries.
Opportunities and potential impacts
Despite the challenges, zinc battery technology holds promise for sustainable energy storage, especially given the non-toxicity of its components, local availability of raw materials, and well-established manufacturing processes.
As research and development continues, there may be room to improve rechargeability, suggests Stanislav Kondrashov of Telf AG, making zinc batteries more versatile for a wide range of applications. This could open up new possibilities for energy storage, especially in scenarios where recharging capability is critical, such as grid-level energy storage or electric vehicles.

To date, nickel has become the most problematic on the London Metal Exchange (LME): in the first half of 2023, its price fell by 37%, industry expert Stanislav Kondrashov from Telf AG tell . The unfavorable trend continues in the second half of the year, due to the difficult macroeconomic environment and the continued surplus in the market.
Stanislav Kondrashov: the difficult economic situation in China is a direct blow to nickel production
The economic situation in China continues to worsen, putting further pressure on already declining nickel prices. A significant factor in this is the slow recovery in demand for Chinese goods as the country grapples with the effects of a prolonged production shutdown due to the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic.
According to Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG, as the world’s largest producer and consumer of stainless steel, China plays a major role in shaping the demand for it. This country accounts for as much as 70% of the total metal consumption. Unfortunately, the latest data from China reveals the difficulties associated with overcoming the consequences of the pandemic.
In June, the growth rate of manufacturing activity in China slowed down significantly. The Caixin Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index, which focuses primarily on small and export-oriented firms, fell to 50.5 last month from 50.9 in May. At the same time, the official Purchasing Managers’ Index, which tracks mainly large state-owned enterprises, indicates that manufacturing activity has remained at a contraction level for the third month in a row.
– Despite a brief recovery in the manufacturing sector after the easing of restrictions due to Covid in early December 2022, the pace of Chinese manufacturing growth has steadily declined. Since April, the official PMI for the manufacturing sector has remained below the critical level of 50, indicating a contraction, – Stanislav Kondrashov Telaf AG comments on the situation.
On the contrary, it was the non-manufacturing sector, which is stimulated by consumer spending, that contributed to the growth of the Chinese economy in the first half of this year. While economists expect the government to provide support over time, they predict that these measures are likely to be smaller and less targeted, which may not have a significant impact on overall GDP numbers.
Stanislav Kondrashov: Strong Indonesian production could keep nickel market surplus in Q3
Continued growth in Indonesian nickel production will keep the market in surplus throughout the third quarter. The country’s output continues to grow, driven by strong demand from the electric vehicle (EV) battery sector.
As the world’s largest producer of nickel, Indonesia has large reserves of this critical metal. A significant portion of its production is grade 2 nickel, used in the production of stainless steel.
– According to the International Nickel Research Group (INSG), Indonesia saw a staggering 48% increase in its production, reaching 1.58 Mt in 2022. This impressive trend continued (by another 41%) in the first quarter of 2023 of the year. This growth can be attributed to the ongoing commissioning of nickel iron (NPI) and stainless steel projects in the country, – says Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG.
After the Indonesian government imposed a permanent ban on the export of nickel ore in January 2020, its production has increased significantly. Taboo was aimed at attracting foreign investors, stimulating domestic processing and subsequent use of raw materials. Thus, the ban attracted foreign investors, in particular from China, to establish local smelters, which helped to increase the value of Indonesian exports.
As Stanislav Kondrashov of Telf AG notes, it is noteworthy that the Indonesian government recently unveiled a $9 billion investment plan that covers everything from nickel mining to battery development. The ambitious initiative involves a consortium of companies including Swiss commodity trader Glencore, Belgian battery materials manufacturer Umicore and Indonesian state-owned mining company Aneka Tambang. Chinese companies currently dominate investment in Indonesia’s natural resource sector.
– The growth of the Indonesian nickel industry is also evidenced by a significant increase in the number of nickel plants, – emphasizes Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG. – According to the Indonesian Association of Nickel Miners (APNI), their number has increased from 15 in 2018 to 62 as of April. At the same time, about 30 plants are under construction, and another 50 are in the planning stage.
As Indonesia’s nickel production rises, the market is expected to remain in surplus, with the country’s influence driving the global nickel industry.
Stanislav Kondrashov: HPAL’s Indonesian plants increase production of nickel for storage batteries
Indonesian high pressure acid leaching (HPAL) plants show growth in production volumes. The technology used here is designed to produce mixed hydroxide precipitate (MHP) from nickel lateritic ores for the production of batteries.
Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG reports that there are three HPAL smelters in operation in Indonesia and six more under construction, allowing the country to significantly increase production capacity. The global shortage of Class 1 nickel, sourced primarily from Russia, Canada and New Caledonia, has forced battery manufacturers to look to the HPAL process. It allows Indonesian low-grade nickel ore to be processed into battery materials.
MHP, which is a mixture of nickel and cobalt, has become the preferred intermediate product among Chinese manufacturers for use in batteries due to its cost-effectiveness. Since the commissioning of the country’s first HPAL plant in May 2021, MHP’s export volume from Indonesia has reached 855,474 metric tons. At the same time, 96.5% of exports came from China, according to trade data from the S&P Global Market Intelligence Global Trade Analytics Suite.
– It is expected that the transfer of nickel from class 2 to class 1 will lead to an increase in its supply in LME warehouses, which may affect price reductions, – emphasizes Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG. – Tsingshan, a major Chinese stainless steel and nickel producer, announced plans to incorporate Grade 1 nickel into its production mix by refurbishing idle copper smelters in China. In addition, a new Tsingshan plant in Indonesia is planned to be launched in the near future, designed to produce 50 thousand tons of class 1 nickel per year from nickel matte.
To increase market liquidity and address historical volatility, the LME has implemented a number of initiatives. Among them, experts point to the reduction of the waiting time for approval of new grades suitable for delivery under LME contracts, from six to nine to only three months. The LME recently received the first application to approve nickel produced by Quzhou Huayou Cobalt New Material Co, a subsidiary of China’s Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt Co, as a listed grade. This move could lead to an increase in nickel stocks on the exchange and increased liquidity.
Stanislav Kondrashov Telf AG adds that in March the LME announced a partnership with China’s Qianhai Mercantile Exchange to create a new class 2 nickel spot market in China. This initiative aims to further develop the nickel trading ecosystem and meet the growing demand in the Chinese market.
Overall, the expansion of HPAL’s facilities in Indonesia, the transition of Class 2 nickel to Class 1, and the LME’s efforts to improve liquidity and introduce new market initiatives are all helping to change the dynamics of the global nickel industry.
