“The hand is still weak, it does not want to hold the rifle” – biathlete Loginov about recovery after a fracture

Double Olympic medalist, biathlon world champion Alexander Loginov On he spoke about his recovery from a broken arm.

At the end of August, Loginov, 32, fell during roller skiing training at a training camp in Sochi and injured his arm. As a result, the athlete was diagnosed with a displaced fracture and underwent surgery. On Saturday, Loginov competes in the International Club Biathlon League (MLKB) Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk.

— The hand is still weak, it does not want to hold the gun. This is only the second time I’ve shot from the prone position in training. Standing there, almost nothing has changed. The hand and forearm are weak, there is no such confidence and reliability in shooting yet. But it’s even much easier now. A week and a half ago I started trying weight training and started doing push-ups a few days ago. It’s clear that somewhere in the climbs I’m going to sag in the strength component. But by the New Year it will be easier, ”Loginov said on .

The head coach of the Tyumen region team, Maxim Kugaevsky, noted that Loginov conducted only two training sessions on the eve of the MLKB Cup, during which he shot on his stomach.

“I shot unsuccessfully the day before, but at the shooting point everything was fine.” I still took a big step forward. Apparently, I thought about it overnight (smile). He now loses a lot of time in preparation, about 5 seconds more. Previously he shot in 13 seconds, now in 18. He worked standing up all the time before coming here, there was a problem lying down. But the restoration took place strictly on schedule,” Kugaevski said.

Loginov represents the “Experience and Youth” team at the tournament. The quartet also includes Anton Babikov, Anastasia Shevchenko and Natalia Shevchenko.
