Belyavski preparing 2 for the Russian Cup

 Interview via VK.com, Google translate:


David, when did you start training this year?

šŸŽ™ "I started training in early February."


What is your current training regimen? How often do you come to the Ozero Krugloe base and train with the national team?

šŸŽ™ "So far, my regimen is more like physical education, mostly general exercises. I've been at the training camp since February 16, training with the team, but not according to the national team's plan yet."


Have you already started preparing for the Russian Cup?

šŸŽ™ "Yes, that's actually what I'm doing now ā€” preparing for the Russian Cup. I hope that I'll have time to get on the platform in top shape."


Have you already managed to adjust your combinations to the new rules?

šŸŽ™ "My combinations haven't changed much because of the new rules. The only thing that needs to be changed is one element on the pommel horse."


How many apparatuses are you planning to do in Novosibirsk?

šŸŽ™ "At the moment, I plan to perform on two apparatuses: pommel horse and parallel bars."


Can you name the main competitors in Russia on these apparatuses?

šŸŽ™ "On pommel horse and parallel bars, it's Polyashov and the young guys that I see at the training camp now - there are definitely 2-3 people."

    1. Nagorny has retired; I donā€™t know about Dalaloyan. As long as they prepare and compete at Russian Cup, they can be on the team. I donā€™t think Belyavski will compete as a neutral athlete though. A pity because on two apparatus I think he could make EF at worlds. I like Belyavski and he hasnā€™t been vocally in support of the war like Nagorny but it must be difficult in Russia for a man with a young family.

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...

ā€˜My daughter likes gymnastics. For us, this is the big successā€™. Aliya Mustafina talks to Match TV

Via VK.com.  Google translate A big interview with Aliya Mustafina was published on MATCH!. We provide a small excerpt below, and the full version is available on the website at the link below  ā“ Aliya, you are now the head coach of the junior artistic gymnastics team. What does your typical day look like? šŸ’œ My current life is similar to what it was when I was competing. In the morning, I have breakfast and go to work by 9:00, we train for four hours, have lunch, rest and train for another three hours. During the training camp, the athletes live at the base. They live and train on the same territory. ā“ Do you manage the gymnasts' personal trainers or do you evenly distribute the responsibilities? šŸ’œ We work in contact with the personal trainers, I listen to their opinions. For example, if the trainer believes that their athlete needs to be given a little rest or do fewer repetitions of a particular exercise, we do so. ā“ Describe the current generation of children. Do they nee...
