✅I'm betting on stability and purity


Vladislav, when did you start training this year?

🎙 "I started training in January."


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

🎙 "We are currently preparing for the Russian Cup in full mode. I don't often come to "Ozero Krugloe" - I came to qualify for the BRICS Games, and I did all my preparation for the games there."


Have you already started preparing for the Russian Cup?

🎙 "Yes, I am preparing in full mode. I will be competing on two apparatuses - pommel horse and parallel bars. According to the new rules, the horizontal bar is very weak for me - there is no point in going on it. It will be difficult to get more complicated on it, since I need elements that I have been studying for a long time, but have never mastered."


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

🎙 "I managed to adapt to the new rules. The horse remained the same - I just removed two elements, and the basic difficulty remained good, and the combination became even more stable. On the uneven bars, I remember the forgotten elements that I did before: their basic difficulty was lower than now, so it makes sense to remember them and include them in the combination." 


Do you plan to complicate the combinations? If so, with what elements? 

🎙 "As for the new elements, everything depends on stability. The main emphasis is on stability and purity of the combination." 


Should viewers expect you in the new season of the Gymnastics Premier League? 

🎙 Most likely, yes. I really like this format. I have not yet decided which team I will compete for, but the priority is "Winged Bars".  [p bars]

Nelli Kim - 'Russian gymnastics has closed in on itself' - Lupita translates

Lupita has translated this ITAR-TASS interview with Nelli Kim.  It's controversial, to say the least. Ed's note : much of the initial response to this interview - both here and in the wider gymternet -  has focussed on the detail of Kim's words and especially her comments about Viktoria Komova, and smiling.  But I think these have to be taken in context, and not too literally. Don't forget that just a day ago Andrei Rodionenko complained bitterly about the judging in Antwerp, calling Kim's behaviour 'aggressive'. Kim is responding to this here, and to the wider current context of Russian gymnastics.  What she is essentially saying to the Russian coach is 'get your own house in order, produce confident, disciplined, well trained gymnasts - stop complaining, do your job, and I will do mine.'   She goes about saying this in a somewhat long winded way and says some things along the way that seem contradictory, unfair, inappropriate even for th...

Possibly!": Angelina Melnikova on plans to update the program Angelina, when did you start training this year? 🎙 "I started training in January." What is your current training regimen? How often do you come to the Ozero Krugloe base? 🎙 "We have training camps every month at the base, so I train with the national team." Have you already started preparing for the Russian Cup? 🎙 "I am currently in recovery mode and am gradually moving to preparatory mode as part of my preparation for the Russian Cup, which will take place in April in Novosibirsk." Have you already managed to adjust your combinations to the new rules? 🎙 "As for the new rules: practically nothing has changed for us, so I didn't have to change my programs. However, there is an interesting innovation on the vault. Girls who perform jumps of different structures will be awarded a 0.2...

UPDATE 23/9 - Russian WAG team for Nanning confirmed

Daria Spiridonova will compete at her first World Championships this autumn.  Picture : RGF Natalia Kalugina has confirmed the Russian team for Nanning : Aliya Mustafina, Maria Kharenkova, Tatiana Nabieva,Ekaterina Kramarenko, Alla Sosnitskaya, Daria Spiridonova.  Reserve : Polina Fyodorova Here is a paraphrased translation of a comment by Natalia Kalugina on her Facebook page : 'Aliya has confidence in competition and she is, kind of, a coach to this team.  In Europe she succeeded in this role and she has told the coaches that she even liked it. The main fighting force will be Kharenkova, Sosnitskaya and Spiridonova.  Accordingly, the strongest apparatus will be beam (Marina Bulashenko With God!).  The Chinese women, of course, have been known to win that apparatus, but if one falls, they all fall.   Alla Sosnitskaya could compete in the vault final, and - in theory - on the floor. On bars, of course, Russia will probably lose to the Chinese women, but the...
