“There were all sorts of stupid things like wrapping yourself in film and going for a run.” Figure skater Mishina talks about ways to lose weight

Figure skater Anastasia Mishina, in a duet with Alexander Gallyamov, spoke about methods of losing weight during puberty.

— At the beginning of puberty, were you not tempted to resort to quick but unhealthy methods, very popular in sports where you have to strictly maintain your weight?

– To the toughest – no. Of course, there were various stupid things like wrapping yourself in film and going for a run. Or don’t drink water at all. Now I constantly monitor my weight, I try to lose a little before competitions to feel lighter. But I wouldn’t say I’m at an ideal weight for competition. For me, physical fitness and muscle preparation are essential. If they are accurate, then everything is in order,” RT quoted Mishina as saying.

Mishina and Gallyamov are world champions, two-time bronze medalists at the 2022 Olympics. They have been training with Tamara Moskvina since 2020.
