Head coach of the Russian swimming team Sergei Chepik explained why the European champion Ilya Borodin managed to reach a new level in terms of results.
Borodin won the 400m individual medley at the Russian Short Course Swimming Championships in St. Petersburg with the world’s best result of the season (3:57.67). The Russian Championship is a qualification to participate in the World Championships in December in Budapest.
– I’m happy for Ilya. These are very good seconds.
— How did you manage to reach this level?
“In my opinion, he calmed down, became more mature and changed his attitude towards training, although it is difficult for me to judge – only a personal trainer can say that. So I can only congratulate you,” Chepik told .
The tournament in St. Petersburg will end on November 26.
