    Komova is injured again? I don't know what to make of her and her constant injuries. However, it is nice that she is motivated for 2013.

    I am glad Aliya is injury free. I am sure she is slowly working back to fitness and it will be great if she does compete in December, if not I am sure she will be at her best in Moscow. Also can't wait to see her new bars routine with changes.

      I think the girls are taking the benefits of some rest before the new season. All gymnasts have little injuries from time to time - a difference with Komova may be that as she is so regularly interviewed and is a very unguarded personality, we hear about hers.
      Glad Mustafina is competing. Regular competition seems to be key to her motivation.

'We were a new team, all the girls are young, and it's their first time in such a serious competition.  I think today we performed to the best of our ability.  Yes, we have had two falls today - on the uneven bars and balance beam.' 'The young girls failed  psychologically, but  the first time you compete on the senior podium - it's not very easy.  No  one is sad.  I  am very pleased with such a performance.  Everything  was fair enough, maybe not everywhere and in all things, but overall it was quite as expected, both our rivals, and the judging.' 'I began to experience more pain in the ankle - continued Aliya Mustafina. - To do the dismounts I had to muster all my strength and clench my teeth.  ...

Listunova interview

By
 Google translate from VK.com -  Match TV talked to Victoria Listunova about the Olympic summer without participating in the Games, recovery, and memories of Tokyo three years later. We are copying several fragments, and the full interview is available on the Match TV website ❓ Victoria, how are you feeling? How was your recovery from the injury? Was it an old problem or some kind of force majeure? 💬 The injury may have been cumulative, it was not immediately revealed, I am now trying to train in the same volume as before. I am restoring my program. It took a long time for rehabilitation. From April until mid-summer, I was completely without loads, so that the injury would heal and never bother me again. But it is not like I was resting all summer. I was constantly present at the training camps, went through all the recovery procedures. At first there was complete rest, then I trained as much as possible without pain. So there were trainings, but in a minimal mode. In the sum...
