Russian gymnast Anastasia Grishina told about his recovery from injury.

"I still go to the center of regenerative medicine and rehabilitation, develop leg doing physiotherapy. But soon after his return from the hospital began to go to the gym - pumped muscles. Doctors say that rehabilitation is going to plan. Today, July 13, I was already possible to jump and slowly start to work on the equipment. I can give a leg strain, but without fanaticism - it is necessary to make it completely healed.

This season, I made only championship in Moscow in early February. Makes all the shells, all-round ranked second. I will try to recover from the September Cup of Russia. The choice of shells and base exercises will depend on the state of the knee.

Now the main thing for me - completely recover. I know that I was not included in the list of candidates to participate in the Olympics in 2016. This was expected, since I did not speak for a long time due to injury. But despite this, I will try to get its second game! Hands are not left out! "- Said Grishin.

Denial of visas - some background

Can I remind everyone interested in Russian gymnastics that the restrictions imposed on Russia following its state-sponsored doping scandal were quite separate from the restrictions introduced following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine? The Russian doping scandal came to prominence in 2016, while WADA imposed further sanctions in 2019. Although these sanctions restricted Russia’s participation under its national flag, they did not impose a blanket ban on Russian gymnasts. Athletes who met the relevant eligibility requirements were still permitted to compete. Artistic gymnastics has historically recorded relatively few positive doping tests, and Russian gymnasts were not collectively excluded from international competition as a consequence of the doping scandal. Russian gymnasts therefore continued to compete at the Olympic Games and major international championships, including the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. The situation changed in February 2022, following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukra...

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...
