Earlier in August, Olympic medalist Khalili said in an interview with that he had seriously injured his shoulder while training on a bike at one of the summer training camps. Khalili trained alone during the off-season.
— How is the recovery going after the shoulder injury you mentioned earlier?
— The recovery is going well. We did everything we could to achieve this, so we were able to return to our duties in a fairly short period of time. At that time, I was more ill with a cold and, most likely, because of this, I could not train for some time. Now, out of caution, I perform 95% of the required planned load. Everything is fine, I plan to perform in Krasnoyarsk.
— Are you going to carry out the full program in Krasnoyarsk?
— I intend to participate in the Commonwealth Cup. I will most likely miss the Russian Championship, as I missed a short period of an important block of speed and strength, and this amount of work still needs to be done. Therefore, we decided to hold training events instead of competitions, ”Khalili told .
The summer stage of the Alfa-Bank Commonwealth Cup will take place from September 6 to 8 in Krasnoyarsk, the Alfa-Bank Russian Championship will take place from September 12 to 15.
