The national bodybuilding team player, Khalid Bakhit Al Falasi, recorded a unique number after he climbed the podiums in all the championships in which he participated so far, as he won 10 medals (six gold, two silver and two bronze) in 10 different championships, including international Asian and world forums, despite his late joining of the national team in 2021.
Al Falasi (45 years old) told Al-Emarat Al-Youm: “I achieved my six gold medals, all in the ‘Masters’ category, in addition to a bronze, thanks to the support of the Emirates Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation, headed by Sheikh Abdullah bin Hamad bin Saif Al Sharqi, which paved the way for me to continue competing, especially since I joined the national team for the first time at the age of 40.”
“I started participating with the national team late, and several factors helped me continue participating in international competitions, in addition to training, including the increasing number of restaurants that provide healthy meals (diet) that help the player prepare according to modern international specifications, in addition to the availability of a large number of modern gyms that provide distinguished training conditions, as well as the quality of the nutritional supplements of the highest quality,” he added.
He explained: “The success of a bodybuilder in international forums stems from the efforts and work style of his coaches and administrators. I am proud of my coaches in the gym, Captain Almas Musa Al Balushi, the national team coach, Zuwaid Salmeen Al Zaabi, and the head of the national teams committee, Ahmed Jawhar. Each one of them played a role in enabling me to win medals in all the international championships that I participated in with the national team.”
Al Falasi added: “I have an important and strong participation in the upcoming World Championships that will be held in Iran, and my goal is to win the fourth consecutive gold medal, after having previously won three consecutive gold medals in the last three World Championships in the (Masters) category for the 80 kg weight for the 45-year-old age group.”
