    In the same vein, details of her early educational journey are unknown.

    How Did Irina Gladkaya Start Arm Wrestling?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    The story behind Irina Gladkaya\u2019s advent into arm wrestling is an interesting one. The Moscow native was just a 15-year-old girl at secondary school when it all started. Her school was involved in a competition in 1999, and during the context, her physical education tutor couldn\u2019t help but notice how athletically gifted and physically strong Irina was.<\/p>\n

    Impressed with those stellar qualities, the teacher arranged for the youngster to begin professional training with a coach. She then went under the watch of a professional coach, Arthur Aghajanyan, which became a turning point in her life as an arm wrestler. Being naturally good at sports, what Gladkaya needed was a little polishing for her techniques and natural abilities to shine out.<\/p>\n

    Within just four months of rigorous training sessions with Arthur, she was ready to take on challenges. It was around this time that she registered for the World Championships held in Slovakia and emerged the overall winner.<\/p>\n
