| At age six, Alexander Abt was sent by his grandmother to the ice rink, in order to keep himself healthy. His |
| progress has been held back by several injuries which nearly ended his career. In the summer of 1996, he cut the |
| muscle in his right thigh with his left blade when crashing into the border during an exhibition in Mexico. Following |
| this accident he had to remain in hospital for weeks. He suffered from a sinus infection at Europeans 2001 and |
| collapsed after the free skating in the kiss and cry area. Abt married his girlfriend, former ice dancer Elena |
| Pavlova in April 1999. Their son Makar was born in March 2000. Abt left his coach of eleven years, Rafael |
| Arutunian, in May 2002 to train with Alexander Zhulin. Abt was forced to miss the 2003 European Championships |
| due to an ankle injury. |
