Ekaterinburg Contestants Battle for 5 Million Rubles in ‘Super Ninja’ Reality Show – Meet the Fierce Competitors!

Residents of Ekaterinburg compete for five million rubles in the reality show “Super Ninja” from STS. Among the participants are entrepreneur Alexei Proselkov and crossfit coach Dmitry Chernykh. They told E1.RU how they went through the casting and revealed the underside of the project.

53 years old Alexei Proselkov he became one of the oldest participants of the season. He admitted that he trains fourteen hours a week.

Sports has become an important part of a businessman’s life. He returned to training at the age of 47 after a 25-year hiatus. Despite his physical training, Alexey passed the casting for the show “Super Ninja” on the third attempt.

– I started street exercise (street exercise. – prim. series), I train outside all year with my own weight. After six years of training, I accidentally experienced this kind of sport and have been doing it for the second year. I plan to continue training, I want to compete at the World Championships in my age category,” said the athlete.

His military friends, their families and close people came to the show to cheer for the resident of Yekaterinburg:

– Emotions were off the charts! Where did I end up? When you see speeds and heights in person, it’s a different experience than on TV. Not every obstacle seemed difficult, but each one requires 100% concentration! For me, this is one of the hardest tracks of every season.

In addition to the fact that the participants have overcome the most difficult obstacle course, they had to film even at night.

– Night shooting is a unique challenge. You are on set from six in the evening, and they can film you at three in the morning or closer to the morning. It was not really possible to sleep during the day; there was filming during the day​​​​​​, Alexey said.

If he wins, Alexei would spend five million rubles on the development of children’s ninja sports in the Sverdlovsk region.

Another partner – Dmitry Chernykh – he enjoyed sports as a child. He was always smaller in class, so his peers bullied him. Then the man realized that he had to learn to stand up for himself, and he took up martial arts.

“My mother raised me alone, and when she was in the hospital, I was sent to the orphanage for a couple of years, and there I had to stand up for myself more often and show my character,” said Dmitry.

Later, Dmitry became a crossfit trainer, but he also failed the casting the first time:

“I hurt my finger while preparing for the show, I wasn’t able to show a high athletic result at the casting and I was ashamed to talk about myself: I had an unconventional childhood,” explained one Resident of Yekaterinburg.

When Dmitry found out that the season would be international, he realized that he had to prove himself clearly.

“I didn’t doubt my abilities, but I had to lose four kilograms – I had a lot of muscle.” Foreigners are well prepared and know their direction, but here ninja sports only get movement, “said the athlete.

Dmitry’s mother and brother supported him on the project:

– Before the start, the adrenaline is pumping with all its might, I don’t even remember passing the track, only in pieces, as if in a fog. It was a path to walk on instinct. But my family supported me, and it was more relaxed.

If he wins, Dmitry has two options – try his hand at business or rent an apartment.

You can cheer for the Ekaterinburg team this Sunday at 16:30 on STS.
