Coach of the Russian national team Yuri Kaminsky believes that biathletes going on self-training may be associated with burnout.
During the offseason, a mini-group of self-trained biathletes was formed, which included world champions Alexander Loginov And Anton Babikov And Alexander Povarnitsyn .
– Indeed, athletes get tired. Psychologists call this condition burnout for good reason. In addition, when the coaches change, you have to adapt to everyone, find some sort of contact with everyone. Skier Kryukov and I talked about this topic over the past years of our cooperation. It was already obvious to me that after the Olympics in Pyeongchang I would finish working in the national team, since the removal of the sprint group was approaching. And I suggested to Nikita: if you want, change coaches.
The same goes for the departures of Alexeï Petoukhov, Anton Gafarov and Alexandre Panjinski. Then, in fact, almost all of them came back. Nikita responded to my proposal very wisely. He asked: what is it for? Well, yes, you can find a new specialist, to whom you will have to adapt, rebuild your usual work and some of your own views. But all this is unlikely to produce the desired effect. Apparently, even then he understood something that others did not understand,” Kaminsky said according to RT.
