Former head coach of the Russian national team Vladimir Pluschev commenting on on the Admiral’s training on January 1, said that he considered training with cylinders a perversion and stupidity.
On Monday, Admiral defender Yuri Pautov wrote on the Telegram channel: “We started on January 1 with training. How did your year start? The hockey player also said that the team received an hour of on-ice training and training with cylinders, but later deleted this comment. The exercise with cylinders is considered the most difficult in hockey: one or two hockey players sit in a car tire, and another player drags them on a strap across the ice.
— I have never practiced cylinders, I have never used them. At the same time, my teams were always in good functional condition. I think balloons are a perversion and stupidity. Because the necessary conditions can be achieved by completely different means and a different organization of the training process, without disturbing the players either in the legs or in the head.
As for the training on January 1… I think everyone understood that the players were definitely violating the schedule – they were sitting at the table with family and friends, celebrating the New Year. Therefore, assembling a team and giving it quite serious tasks the next day is not very professional.
It’s hard for me to say what is related to the January 1 release. The coach plans his own work. It may well be that, according to Leonid Tambiev’s plans, the “Admiral” was supposed to train that day, Plyushchev told .
In the last two matches of the regular season of the Fonbet KHL championship, Admiral lost to Nizhnekamsk Neftekhimik with a score of 3: 4 and 2: 5. The team ranks last in the Eastern Conference with 37 points in 44 matches . On January 3, Admiral will play against Siberia.
