This little four-year-old boy may look like your average toddler, but that mischievious grin hides a super strong body. Four-year-old Zhenya Kuzmenkov can lift this 8.8 pound kettleball a whopping 117 times and you can tell by the smile on his face that he loves doing it too. Little Zhenya caused a sensation when he lifted the kettleball over a hundred times during the Victory Record fitness event held on May 9th in the Irkutsk Region of Russia. Zhenya lifts with his father Aleksandr, a professional athlete, and his 11-year-old sister Yana, who has been lifting for 2 years and can swing the 8.8 pound kettleball a whopping 550 times already. Of course, Zhenya is still just a kid, and lifting weights at a very young age can have negative effects on children's growth. However, Zhenya's dad regularly consults with experts to figure out the appropriate weight limit for his little tyke and never exceeds the maximum. Of course, Zhenya is a kid at heart and loves to play, so his dad mixes in play time with training. Aleksandr brought his kids to train with him and, unexpectedly, weighlifting became a family hobby, and they now regularly train together.

Fires in Greece this summer will burn an area of at least 150,000 hectares (370,600), the Greek prime minister says including a large fire in the north which has been burning for nearly two weeks. The area ravaged by fires "will exceed 1,500,000,000 square metres (150,000 hectares)... the most serious one was the one at Dadia forest", says Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, referring to the forest fire that the EU has branded the largest ever recorded in the bloc.
