- But please, do not ask the question of how difficult it is to grow, to cultivate the Olympic champion - smiling, warned at the beginning of our conversation, Valentin A.. - Because to answer it I will have, probably, in 1001-th time. By the way, half of the responses had to give, in response to inquiries of foreign journalists: it seems that journalists are the same everywhere. Uprezhu another possible question: what middle name in circulation for me would be - or A. Adol'fovich? Errors will not be in that in either case. You know, I do not even honorary diplomas and government awards, which is called a fifty-fifty: half formalized on Medvedev's, and the other - on Adol'fovich. This mom decided to keep me from awkward middle name, as a child writing Anatolevichem. And probably for good reason. Father, I know, unfortunately, only in my mother's stories. He died in 1941 at Moscow. His middle name, I think you can be proud of.

 

SCIENCE GYMNASTICS

I am deeply convinced that in order to educate the athlete must be a certain vocation. This - the main thing. And the athlete is simply inconceivable without hard work, great performance. Playing sports, and especially a great sport, one must at least four to five hours every day to give yourself to the business. In another way, you can not become a world-class leader. This work seven days a week. Weekends we are when somewhere rastyanesh arm or leg. And so: work, work and work again. In another way, it is impossible!

 

Wrestlers and gymnasts

I always give the example of how many years the athlete is held in the big sports such as wrestling? The fighters say they are beginning to fourteen years and remain on the carpet to 24-26 years. It happens that a little bit more, it appears that a total of - 14-16 years. In gymnastics, we start with five or six years and end up somewhere in the 20-22 years. How many years of work? It turns out, about the same number as in the fight, and any other sport. But we have early specialization. If weightlifting, yet a number of sports is invalid for age-related physiological characteristics of a person, in the gym just recommend starting from an early age. With five or six years. Naturally, this should be a class not a great sport, and the elements that contribute to the overall physical development. But, nevertheless, it exercises that are directly associated with the development of coordination, the vestibular system, speed-strength training and so on. All of these exercises, we quietly give the guys that they came stabilization of the movements that are needed in gymnastics.

 

STEP FORWARD

Control the sport, gymnastics, in his own way - art. But heavy art. What does this mean? If I, as a coach, did not come up in the gym for something their own, I will not be able to make the leader of his pupil. I owe something new, your, show: here's how to do it. And it is already perceived the world. So we have and it was actually with all gymnasts - Tanya Godenko, Lena Naymushina, followed by gymnasts champions. This is natural in our profession.

Take Ensemble Michael Godenko: that he invented the dance, it was his work, and that it perceived the world enthusiastically. We at the gym about the same thing: if the coach is not a creative person, it is difficult to prepare the athlete's big plan. You can, of course, go on already traversed by someone way: someone did, and you repeat, but at the same time the leader will never be. We do not have a global leader of our Soviet and Russian gymnasts, who would become Olympic champions, not showing something of their own. The main thing - is to sing your own song, it's really creative.

 

THROUGH ITS OWN HANDS

I'm a little jealous (smiling) coaches athletes. I do not want to say anything bad about them, respect their work. All work necessary. But the coach in athletics can come to the gym in a suit and tie. Can sit in the stands and give advice, installation. "Nick, you're jogging on a bend leg bad work." Or is there: "Watch your hands, and they like you as separate from the body." I, of course, bring a completely exaggerated comparison. But on the other hand, in the gym is impossible. In it you're doing everything initially, substituting their own hands. With a small child that you spend it with your hands. Of course, there are aids: lounges, trampoline. But the child himself for the first time ever dare, for example, a double somersault. Be sure to ask: "Come, insure me." The instinct of self-preservation. The same goes for all other shells. And male gymnasts are six of them women - four, plus support. So in a suit and tie you, the coach, perhaps, can only appear at the event.

 

QUESTION TO DEFERRED

I seem to be very reluctant to go back to the question from which you are warned. Apparently, in talking about the gym (laughs) this theme is really hard to avoid. Is it difficult to raise the Olympic champion? I would say that interested in their work and talented coach - not difficult. But for this to be an athlete who is capable of gymnastics, has already been performed in the world. But he should be able to go further. At least a little bit. And this gymnast must do what the coach thought of.

Before spinning one somersault. Now twist the two. That means we need to turn somersaults with two screws - then you go to the forefront. However, it is extremely difficult, it's available units.

 

CEILING NOT FOR SPORT

I sometimes try to convince us that there is a ceiling features. My opinion about this limitation in sports such. Take athletics. Remember jumper Valery Brumel? Record set by them, kept remarkably long. Despite the fact that they continued to train, jump and try to conquer it. It was not possible. What is it - the same ceiling? Not at all: it's time, and record Brumel helpful conquered. Just there were other people, a new technique of jumping, something added, and the boys began to jump much higher.

Once in a century necessarily born unique, strong man. Remember wrestler Ivan Poddubny, which no man could lay. The very nature creates these guys, these athletes. So, I am convinced, the ceiling - this is not about sports. Actually, not a sport. Yes, there are limits to the mass, but not for high performance sport, and always there are exceptions - in any sport.

 

FIVE PER

Coach - a versatile personality. He simply must be understood and acrobatics and choreography, and gymnastics. Why? Prepared, for example, the composition of floor exercises. We have a coach, choreographer, trainer and acrobat, in addition, there is also the fourth coach - of physical training: on the one gymnast four specialists. However, even five, I did not mention the accompanist. All work as a unit. But the main thing here - the coach, and that he knows what is necessary to make a statement to the gymnast came into the international arena, and wherever he was certainly among the leaders.

I remember when the question arose of what to make for floor exercises Helena Naymushina, we choreographer came to the conclusion that they need to do the unexpected. Be such that room, like it or not, watching this performance, clapping. So she came and made famous "Kalinka". Try not to clap for her, especially when this music comes true art: crazy acrobatics and indescribable expression of Lena. When she sang at the Olympics, these floor exercises, Hall is not just slapping - people were getting up from their seats and applauded. Including our Godenko Michael, appeared delighted at the sight. Look at the women's gymnastics he came not by accident - the acknowledged master of the art of dance, director, choreographer, he admittedly drew much of gymnastics.

 

No offense

We have created a system for selecting the school gym. What is it expressed? We recruit five or six years of age, and prepare them for admission to the school for a year. This is not a fact that out of three hundred children recruited all three will be our students. Not all. At the end of the year hold competitions in which included norms required for the initial exercises. Of three hundred children in the end remains of 28 people - and they are the first grade gymnastics class. It's the guys from all over the city, but educational school lessons for them are next door to our gym, at the Lyceum № 9. other guys, alas, we recommend other sports. Why torture the child if he is unable to the gym - it's wrong. I should add that it is understood and parents of children. Specific conversations with them spend more at the start, at the initial stage - will be held a year and then everything becomes clear: gymnastics or something else. And guys get gym charge, I assure you, is much easier to adapt to any other sport.

Remembering last summer - Nelli Kim, her judges and Viktoria Komova

In view of Nelli Kim's recent interview , Lupita and I thought it timely to revisit the performance of some of the WTC President's judges over past competitions ... this article from 27th August 2012 is reposted here, as a reminder. You will find a link to the FIG's newly published book of results at the Olympic Games here .  This year, they have broken down the judge's execution scores so you can see exactly how each judge evaluated the gymnasts' performances.  It makes for interesting reading - if only I had more time to analyse each judge's marking.  A skim reading already highlights multiple inconsistencies in individual judges' marks and makes you wonder why they bother with the jury at all. I have taken the time to look at the reference judges' scores for the top four in the women's all around.  The FIG explains here what their role is, and how they are selected.  I even used my calculator, which is a risky thing in my hands.  M

Andrei Rodionenko explains Russia's performance at Worlds - Lupitatranslates

Rodionenko with European Champion David Belyavski  Courtesy RGF/Elena Mikhailova This is the interview that many people on the internet have already commented on, regarding Andrei Rodionenko's alleged racism.  The original, Russian language version, appears on VTB Bank's website (VTB are sponsors of Russian gymnastics).  It takes cleverer people than me to decide what is racism, what is deliberately perjorative, and what is inferred in an interviewer's question.  For now, I will not comment on this, therefore, but I would ask you to read Lupita's translation carefully before you form your own opinion.   I am providing some links below which might help you to decide where you stand.

Judging Komova and Douglas - like comparing the Mariinsky Theatre ... and a Disco

  Lupita translates an article about the women's all around from today's Sovietski Sport. OLYMPICS OR LAS VEGAS CASINO? Aliya and Vika waited for Viktoria’s score for her floor, which closed the AA competition. Gabriella Douglas was completely alone, biting her lips. Douglas was not sure of anything, except that Aliya Mustafina, who stayed in gymnastics like a heroine, had won bronze and Komova…  In this instant it was decided to be, or not to be.  To be Olympic Champion, or not to be Olympic Champion. It’s over.  Vika drops her head on Aliya’s shoulder.  The judges have decided: Douglas! I choose the sentence "Douglas has been named Olympic AA champion".  I can explain when this happened.  It was not when Komova didn’t land her Amanar vault well. Her mistake on vault was not fatal.  It was still possible to make it up. They just didn’t allow her to do so. Douglas performed with pleasure and with luck.  She was overscored for her uneven bars routine
