Alexander Kuritsyn is an interesting person. Lurkomorye is far from flattering about this man, and in other sources there is a lot of negativity directed towards this man. It is also known as Nevsky. This is due to the fact that at the age of 25 he took such a pseudonym, claiming that this is the surname of his parents (or his mother's maiden name). Confirmation of this was not found in any source, apparently, it was just more beautiful that way. He called himself "Russian Schwarzenegger" and "Mr. Universe".
Alexander Kuritsyn is also known on the net by the nicknames Mr. Pelmennaya, Mr. Wattaquot, Chicken and others, the appearance of which is easy to understand by following his biography. Over the past twenty years, he has remained a highly discussed person in the media as a bodybuilder, but for some reason only in those media that have nothing to do with bodybuilding. There was a time,when he was called the most prominent Russian bodybuilder. In general, it is clear that a man loves popularity and achieves it at any cost and by any means.
Kuritsyn family
Alexander Kuritsyn, whose biography began in Moscow on July 17, 1971, grew up in a family of intellectuals. His father was a professor who taught economics and management. Mom and older sister were quite close and dear people for him, whom he always remembers with warmth.
Trying to play sports
Growth of Alexander Kuritsyn as an athlete began with the basketball section, where he was influenced by his parents at the age of twelve. After all, the boy was already tall. Now Kuritsyn's height is 1 m 98 cm. However, there was no great desire to study, which was explained by the non-pedagogical attitude of the coach to all those involved, especially to Sasha. Two years later, this was the reason for leaving the section. Sports activities continued in the boxing section, USA signed up there after meeting with hooligans. And these classes brought him pleasure, Alexander thanked his mentor, Vadim Latyshenko, years later. In 1986, Alexander Kuritsyn began self-study (in his apartment) with iron, trying to build muscle. To do this, without anyone's help, he built the simplest burden. The film "Conan the Destroyer", where the main character was Arnold Schwarzenegger, became the main reason for the new hobby.
Graduation and further path
1994 was a significant year, as Alexander graduated from the State Academy of Management. In 1995, asgraduate student, he continued his studies. Unfortunately, there is no data on the defense of a candidate's work and the award of a scientific degree. In the same year, he appeared on the TV screen as "Mr. World 95", although in reality Kuritsyn did not receive this title.
Later he said that he did not assign the title to himself, and this was a mistake of journalists. When he was 25 years old, he took a pseudonym for Nevsky. The alias was later officially displayed in the passport as a new surname.
TV shows in which Nevsky first "lit up"
Fame came in 1998-1999, when the TV programs "Theme" and "Up to 16 and older", "Good Morning" were aired with his participation. 1999 is significant for the introduction of a column in bodybuilding “Under 16 and older” (the release of a series of video lessons). They were led by Kuritsyn. In the same year, he left for the United States to conquer Hollywood.
Decided to move closer to my idol
In 2000, Alexander Kuritsyn studied at the University of California. There he studied English and acting at the Strasberg Theater Institute. In the same year, Alexander Kuritsyn, an actor, was born. He starred in Ryazanov's film Quiet Pools. To be honest, the viewer saw the role as wordless. In the future, Alexander said that his only replica was … cut out during the editing process.
Personal life of Kuritsyn-Nevsky
Even at the institute, he met with a girl Ekaterina, who in 2000 acquired a new status -wife of Alexander Kuritsyn (at that time she was studying to be an engineer). In the future, their life did not work out, she remained in the United States. Oksana Sidorenko came instead.
Films starring Alexander Kuritsyn
Alexander Kuritsyn, whose filmography began with The Red Snake, continued with Moscow Heat (2004), Magician (2009), Murder in Vegas (2010), he did not receive much fame as an actor.
Films that Nevsky made himself
In the same period, six films were released, the producer of which was himself. Who sponsored these films is also shrouded in darkness, but the "fans" have rather sharp assumptions, up to "close ties with scammers, swindlers and scammers who used his services to launder money through films." This is what some explain the fact of their birth. Although, of course, no one cites evidence to support these statements. In his films, Kuritsyn played the main roles - an "honest cop" or a fighter for the truth. All these films have the same shortcomings: the lack of a well-thought-out plot, the frank dragging out of the film (meaningless walking, unnecessary long lengths, etc.), which are visible even to a non-specialist. Nevsky, in all his roles, probably tried to be like Schwarzenegger (from walking to smoking). And vodka. Nowhere without her. All the characters constantly used this particular alcoholic drink. Fights, skirmishes, murders, explosions of various types of transportare all movie details.
Kuritsyn's parameters in his bodybuilding career
Alexander Kuritsyn, whose photo we see below, was actually quite handsome. In 1999, his weight was 145 kilograms, while the girth of the biceps was 57 cm.
Five years later, he lost a lot of weight - 112 kilograms, biceps - 52 cm. On one of the radio broadcasts, he noted that the best bodybuilding result was in 1998, when he squeezed a barbell of 225 kilograms. Not forgetting to mention the problems with the knees, I remembered working with squats with a load of 220 kilograms, in the deadlift - 320 kilograms. With all this, he noted that this is quite "not bad" for his weight.
Titles assigned to Nevsky - reality or myth?
In 2011, information appeared that Nevsky was appointed governor of the Tula region for sports issues (on a voluntary basis). Commenting on this information, he also noted the similar activities of Schwarzenegger in the United States. November 2011 brought him the status of "Mr. "Universe"" in the city of Vienna. Alexander was the winner of "Extreme Bodybuilding". But with all this, the list of all participants was not published.
In addition to the above-mentioned advantages, also a writer
Kuritsyn, in addition to all his activities, is the author of a series of books on fitness and bodybuilding in which he addressed young people and the fair sex.
Despite the fact that Alexander is overseas, his homeland remembers him. And he talks about her
OnAlexander Kuritsyn is currently located in the USA, California, Los Angeles. Citizenship remained Russian, which he often talks about. Kuritsyn emphasizes this fact, but is in no hurry to return to his homeland, preferring to live in America and rotate in the Los Angeles party among the stars.
His idol is still Schwarzenegger, whose experience and activities Kuritsyn seeks to adopt. Without knowing Nevsky personally, it is difficult to make an impression of him. All the news that periodically pop up in the media cause a lot of controversy and diametrically opposed opinions. Activities in the cinema could not impress either critics or spectators. His fans, who are many, believe what they write about him on the net or in the media, and are convinced that he is a three-time winner of the title "Mr. World" and the best bodybuilder on the planet. Although experts say that his muscles are only suitable for local competitions in some regional center. But, despite the attacks of spiteful critics, he was able to win his audience. He is little affected by the arguments of idle gossip. Kuritsyn lives his own life and continues to delight his fans and admirers with successive achievements.
