Junior World Diving Vice-Champion Elizabeth Kuzina told RT that she was heading towards the goal of improving the quality of her jumps.
– Where do you get your motivation from? Especially now, when nothing is clear. It seems to me that when there is no clearly defined goal in a particular season, it becomes quite difficult to force yourself to train.
– I like jumping, I like training, I have a goal that does not depend on the number of competitions in the current season. And I’m moving towards that goal.
— What if it takes a lot longer to reach the goal than it seems now?
– So what? Before, it seemed to me that there was a certain period of time, between 20 and 25, when an athlete was able to be in shape. And then, so to speak, the results go down. And now I have a lot of examples in front of my eyes where people are jumping more successfully, even in old age. In our country, this is Nadya Bazhina, who won her last European Championship and two medals at the World Championships at the age of 30, and Kristina Ilyinykh. I gave myself the task of improving myself each season, of improving the quality of my jumps. For me, that’s the most important thing right now. And above all, it works.
The match outfit TV channels will broadcast the Russian Diving Championship, which will be held from June 24 to 29 in Yekaterinburg at the New Aquatic Palace.
