Marina entered the top ten best athletes in the world &#8211; while her sister Inna became a judo world champion among visually impaired athletes.<\/p>\n<p>For the past 17 years, the two have begun their day with a workout.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Training starts at 7 a.m., in rare cases at 9 a.m. We wake up early at 6 a.m..\u00a0the girls said.<\/p>\n<p>These sportswomen have changed the dresses and heels preferred by many girls, for kimonos.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When I put it on, I immediately set my mind on training. If it&#8217;s a competition, on fighting,&#8221; Inna said.<\/p>\n<p>They say that the belt is a special element of clothing, as it \u201caccumulates\u201d the energy of victory from each competition.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I never give my belt to anyone, my energy&#8217;s in it. It is personal. Sometimes you win a competition and the belt is kept. And you think that the next competition will be brilliant,&#8221; Maryna said.<\/p>\n<p>Andriy Bondarchuk, a &#8216;Merited Coach of Ukraine&#8217; saw potential in the girls when they were 13 and decided to coach them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We got off the bus, I tried to stop the girls. One ran away, and one stayed. I offered them training, then I called their mother and since then they&#8217;ve been ours,&#8221; Bondarchuk said.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the judo twins share a lot of awards. Inna is a champion of the Summer Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro and the European Games in Baku. She is a silver medalist at the Summer Universiade in Kazan as well. Marina is a champion of Ukraine and a bronze medalist of the European Championship.<\/p>\n<p>In November, the sisters won two more gold medals for Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>Inna won the World Judo Championship for visually impaired athletes held in Portugal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gold medal, I set myself up for this world championship. It was important, there was a chance to become the Merited Master of Sport. But I had to become the very first,&#8221; Inna Cherniak said.<\/p>\n<p>Marina struck the Grand Prix gold medal in the Netherlands, having defeated the Brazilian Olympic champion Sarah Menezes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I felt that I was functionally stronger. There&#8217;s one chance &#8211; either you win, or lose,&#8221; Maryna said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She is now among the ten best athletes in the world. In a month, there will be master competition in China, in which 16 of the continent\u2019s strongest athletes will participate,&#8221; Bondarchuk said.<\/p>\n<p>Inna and Marina have two workouts a day. Both are actively preparing for the Olympics in Tokyo in 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ukrainian twins Marina and Inna Cherniak became undisputed judo champions simultaneously.
