Biathlete Alexander Povarnitsyn believes that he could not enter the national team Russia at the 2022 Beijing Olympics due to immune issues.
– I am grateful to Sergey Bashkirov for taking me to his group in the Olympic year. Sasha Loginov also helped, he acted as a guide. He was preparing for the Olympics, fully mobilized and training us throughout. We considered him the leader of the team and also reached out. Most likely, thanks to this, we managed to reach such a good level again and show the result.
But, apparently, I have some sort of problem with the immune system. Working at my almost maximum level, at a pointless time, I do things that negatively affect my health. At the end of the World Cup before the New Year, we could go home or stay in Europe. At that time, various infections were occurring in our country, and I returned home, and since running weakens the immune system, and the body is implanted, I immediately caught some kind of infection. And I arrived at the New Year’s training camp already ill, I could not fully train, and the stage in Oberhof was January 6, so I urgently needed to get in shape. I insisted on hard work, I did it, and that’s it – it knocked me down, – quotes the words of Povarnitsyn “Championship”.
In the 2021/22 season, Povarnitsyn’s best result in a personal World Cup run was 12th place in the pursuit.
