Mariusz Pudzianowski shared online that he trained together with President Karol Nawrocki. In a few sentences, he described their meeting as if he were talking about a training partner from the mat—no politics, just a strong dose of sporting pride. And it was precisely this tone that drew the most attention.
“He’s got character!” — Pudzian on the joint training session
In his post, Pudzianowski wrote:
“Several days ago, I had the opportunity to train with the President of Poland, and I must admit—he’s got character! Even though the agreement was ‘not to go all out,’ he didn’t hold back, and 150 kg on the bench was smashed!”
He added:
“It was great to exchange a few words, not only about sport. We share a similar outlook on many things. With a leader who has his own opinions and doesn’t bow to anyone, you can stand shoulder to shoulder.”
President Nawrocki and sport: not the first time
Karol Nawrocki has long emphasized that sport is an important part of his life.
He has previously spoken about his boxing results and often returns to the topic of training and physical activity in interviews. That is why this joint session with Pudzianowski does not look like a случайное encounter, but rather a natural extension of his sporting interests.
For Pudzianowski, this is also not the first time he has shared behind-the-scenes glimpses of training with public figures. However, this time he did so with particular emotion, highlighting the determination and character of his training partner on the bench.
