Criticism of Trusova and training Shcherbakova

Off-season continues in figure skating, and athletes are forced to prepare for new starts in conditions of self-isolation. So, the Russian woman Alexander Trusova trains in a country house, where she moved with her parents and two younger brothers. According to her, a large family, as well as the presence of pets, dogs of Lana and Tina, do not let her not only get bored, but also lose her form. In addition, she devotes much of her time to studies.

“I read books, prepare for OGE, less often watch TV. Officially, the exam was postponed to June, had to pass earlier. About whether he will pass remotely, while they did not say anything. Apparently, they will decide according to the situation, as with everything else. But I never cheated. I handed over the last tests back in elementary school, when I knew everything and there was no need for this, ”Trusova admitted in an interview with Sport Express.

Of course, it is too early for the bronze medalist of the 2020 European Championship to even think about completing a career. However, the 15-year-old skater already has an idea of ​​how her life should develop after leaving sports.

“I would like to perform until the age of 22. We’ll see, but there were such thoughts. Then three children, two girls and a boy, as I want. And, of course, I will have a lot of dogs ... There are no applicants. While I am in sports, I can’t have them, it will distract, ”said the athlete.

The other day, Trusova fell into an unpleasant situation, which, according to some fans, questioned her reputation as a disciplined athlete. Her family was among the Russians who, due to the closure of the borders, had to be taken from Egypt to their homeland. After returning, the skater sat down in home quarantine, however, videos of her training on the street appeared on the network.

The fans were outraged by the fact that she went on vacation during the coronavirus pandemic, and the subsequent violation of self-isolation. Some even proposed to exclude her from the team.

However, the president of the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR) Alexander Gorshkov stood up for Trusova.

“I have not seen her roller-skating and breaking something. She knows perfectly well what should be in quarantine. After all, Alexandra was not alone there, but with her parents. They returned all together. Skaters, like all other people, must observe the regime of self-isolation. What are they actually doing. Of course, it’s hard for them, they try to somehow train. You can’t completely lose shape, ”Gorshkova quotes“ Sport day after day. ”

It’s difficult to blame Trusova’s colleague in the group Eteri Tutberidze Anna Shcherbakova for exemplary behavior. The figure skater, who celebrated her 16th birthday at the end of March, more than once shared with fans the details of her training, which she also does in the country.

“I train for about 45 minutes in the morning and two hours in the afternoon: I jump, stretch, do different exercises. After a break, it’s always difficult to return to the ice, but I try to do a lot so as not to lose my physical form, ”said Shcherbakova.

Tuktamysheva’s plans and Samodurova’s dance

In early April, two-time world champion Evgenia Medvedeva left Canada and went to Japan, where an ice show is due in June. The athlete also starred in a photo shoot in which she appeared in the signature image of the magician Sailor Moon and took part in the Home Cup challenge launched by Juventus striker Cristiano Ronaldo.

Some fans expressed concern about the health of the skater due to an unexpected trip. However, she hastened to reassure them.

“I quarantined Toronto. Now I have the first week of self-isolation in Japan. I made the best decision in this situation so that my mother and others are safe. After quarantine, you will see that everything is fine with me. Please keep calm. Stay home if you have the opportunity. Because I didn’t have such an opportunity, ”Medvedev wrote on Instagram.

Interestingly, the athlete continues to be accused of the intention to change citizenship. So, one of the users of social networks suggested that Medvedev "wants to betray the country for the sake of imaginary victories." In response, the skater only left the emoji of a man with his palm against his face.

The 2015 world champion Elizaveta Tuktamysheva partially opened the veil of secrecy about the next season. She said that she not only did not intend to end her career, but also wanted to try something new.

“When difficult moments come, you hear a voice that tells you that the end is not yet. Intuitively, you understand whether you have the strength to continue. As long as you have fire in the middle of your soul, you will not end. But if there is no fire and you are tired of everything - it is better to finish. I have this fire and therefore I am moving forward, ”Tuktamysheva said in an interview with Yuri Smekalov.

Another student of Alexei Mishin, Sofya Samodurova, often pleases fans with her versions of famous songs. This time, she did not so much sing as she made several funny movements to the composition of the popular blogger Clara Koki “Left the chat”.

Unlike colleagues, the bronze medalist of the Universiade in Krasnoyarsk Stanislav Konstantinov admitted that she was not easily given quarantine. She stated that she was afraid to go beyond her summer cottage.

“I want to go out somewhere faster, but you understand that people are dying, that everything is serious. So it remains to shove their Wishlist in one place. I left for the cottage before all this hype and the introduction of quarantine. One day I had a panic attack, a tantrum began, ”Konstantinova shared her feelings.

Dressing Plushenko and home spa Yagudin

In various challenges, especially popular during quarantine, not only active athletes, but also former skaters take part. The #fliptheswitchchallenge was joined by his entire family, two-time Olympic champion Evgeni Plushenko. Participants in the test should exchange clothes with friends or relatives at the click of a finger or after turning off the lights.

“Our new #fliptheswitchchallenge is dedicated to haters and other evil spirits,” wrote the ex-skater's wife, music producer Yana Rudkovskaya.

It is worth noting that the star family has recently really faced a lot of criticism in social networks. So, Plushenko was again convicted of overly intense training of his son, who was preparing to follow in his father's footsteps. However, Rudkovskaya prefers not to leave such statements unattended.

“Lord, where do you come from? Also write your conclusions on the page of world sports legends! Take care of your children and husband (if they are, of course), on this page no one really needs your pity and advice, ”the producer commented on one of the messages.

But the Olympic champion Alexei Yagudin, during quarantine, on the contrary, prefers to relax. He arranged a day off in the "spa", where he was given manicures and pedicures and painted nails with bright varnish. In the role of the masters were his daughters Elizabeth and Michelle.

“And when will the massage be?”, Asked Yagudin.
