Nabiyeva and Paseka made our gymnasts stronger, says Chinese coach Shiping

The coach of Chinese gymnasts believes that Paseka and Nabieva made the team stronger


Russians worked as coaches in the Chinese women's artistic gymnastics team from October 2022 to August 2023


KAZAN, November 22. /TASS/. Russian artistic gymnastics world champions Maria Paseka and Tatyana Nabieva, who worked as coaches with the Chinese women's team, made the team even stronger. This opinion was expressed to TASS by the coach of the Chinese team, Zhou Shiping, during a match between the junior artistic gymnastics teams of Russia and China in Kazan.


In October 2022, Paseka and Nabieva left for China to work with the country’s women’s national team. In August, after the expiration of the contract with the Chinese Gymnastics Association, they returned to Russia.


“Paseka and Nabieva worked very friendly together with our Chinese coaches. They helped our athletes a lot. The gymnast who worked with Nabieva became first at the World Youth Championships in the balance beam exercise. She [Nabieva] worked in the group, and there are an athlete who took first and second places at the World Youth Championships on the balance beam and floor exercise,” he said.


The trainer added that Chinese and Russian specialists have their own specifics and peculiarities in their teaching methods. During their work together, they were able to exchange experiences and learn a lot from each other. “Our athletes also treated both coaches well and highly appreciated their methods and training, they became very close friends. It’s a pity that they could not stay and continue working with us,” added Zhou Shiping.

Who really won the WAG All Around?

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.  My, how I wish we could have seen a similar document for the Tokyo World Championships. I wonder if anyone can explain how, if the FIG's Code of Points is so objective and fair, it is possible to come up with two different results using two differ...

Viktoria Komova - back pain has forced me to step down

I awoke this morning to a very simple statement from Viktoria Komova, on her vk.com site, which Papa Liukin has translated (via the IG forum): 'Dear friends, fans, and gymnastics lovers. Unfortunately back pain isn't allowing me to train to my full potential and get ready for competitions. I've made the very difficult decision to stop training and take care of my health. I want to thank everyone for their support! Without your love and warmth it would've been more difficult to go all the way. Thanks everyone and see you soon! Love and kisses.' Well, first of all, good wishes and best of luck to Viktoria, who has struggled since 2012 to re-establish herself fully as a competitive gymnast, whose talent was so great that she secured gold on bars at two different World Championships, four years apart, whose career was littered with controversy, who must be allowed to live her life as she wishes.   I know that the 'gymternet' will now be overflowing...

Simone and the others - results and reflections

In the end, it was as predicted : Simone and the others, with Simone's teammate, Alexandra Raisman, providing the back up.  I do not need to point out that, by definition, the Americans are scoring significantly higher marks than the rest of the field.  Congratulations to them! Aliya Mustafina finished in third place.  The 2012 bronze medalist led the competition after vault and uneven bars, but had a very nervous outing on beam that might have taken a less experienced gymnast out of the medals.  A bravura performance on floor brought Aliya back though to confirm her third place all around.  From her senior debut in 2010 to today, Mustafina has continuously set high standards of grace.    It is the first time since 2000 that a gymnast (Amanar) has medalled in the all around at two consecutive Olympics, and  if Aliya can medal on Saturday's uneven bars final, she will once again be Russia's biggest medal winner of the women's gymnastics.  Russ...
