Coach of the Russian national biathlon team Sergei Bashkirov said that the athletes in his group did not feel stress while preparing for the Beijing Olympics.
At the 2022 Games Alexander Loginov and Maxim Tsvetkov training in the Bashkirov group, won bronze medals in the men’s relay.
– During the preparation for the Beijing Olympics, the main attention was paid to the head coaches, and we trained quite calmly, there was no tension in the work. We have known many athletes for a long time. The main thing is that all the guys were motivated, everyone wanted to show their maximum, everyone had their own tasks.
As for the formation of Loginov, in any case you need a look from the outside. When an athlete trains alone, it is difficult for him to assess the condition, the technical aspects. Also, when working in a group, a competition is created between the guys, they try to show the best qualities,” Bashkirov told the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) press service.
