Many attractions awaited the participants of the World Push-Up Day combined with the National Calisthenics Games Phoenix Games. The event, co-organized by the Silesian University of Technology, took place at the Mrowisko Student Culture Centre.
On Sunday, June 23rd, sport ruled in the "Mrowisko" area. And although the next attempt to break the Guinness record for doing push-ups by the largest possible number of people in one place was not successful, it gathered almost eighty people. However, the organizers do not give up. Besides, the issue of the record breaking is not the most important thing for them.
- This is the second edition of the event and there will definitely be more - announces Juan Miguel Zumeta, event organizer from the Phoenix Time Foundation. - We have prepared many attractions for everyone - children and teenagers could see, among others, the offer of sports clubs and children's schools. Our guests prepared interesting lectures, and the competition in the games was very interesting. We want to continue to promote a healthy and conscious lifestyle. I think our competitions show that by paying attention to details that are extremely important, you can do amazing things with the human body. Many thanks to all our partners, exhibitors and the Silesian University of Technology for supporting our event. The presence of scientists increases its prestige. We will do everything to make the next editions even better.
