Winner of the Russian figure skating championship among juniors Artem Kovalev revealed the characteristics of the general physical training of figure skaters in his group.
– What are the differences between OFPs in solo skaters? I’ll tell you how it goes in our group. We do a little more than girls – we gain more weight, run longer or longer distances, we work out with masks, with dumbbells, we train on special simulators. For example, you can row or push heavy plates. We work to strengthen the muscular framework so that when performing a quadruple jump or any other jump, you can stand and be calm so that your body can withstand this load,” Kovalev told the Championship.
Kovalev became fifth in the last Russian championship, and in the Russian Cup he took tenth place.
