The honorable role of Zagitova and Shcherbakova's training
May is the time of the last calls. The rituals traditional for these days are observed not only in ordinary schools, but also in sports schools, including Sambo-70. This year, the educational institution graduates from the skater Alina Zagitova. She will be honored to give the last call at the ceremony.
“Zagitova is a symbol of the victories of the Sambo-70 school and the whole of Russia,” the director of the center for sports and education Renat Layshev explained to TASS.
While there is still time before the official graduation, the Olympic champion Pyeongchang-2018 herself continues to prepare for final exams. It is known that she intends to enter the Russian State University of Physical Culture, Sports, Youth and Tourism (RSUFKSMiT). The skater shared a photo in which a cat helps her in preparation for the biology exam.

Anna Shcherbakova, another student of Eteri Tutberidze, has not yet to pass final exams, so she devotes free time to training. The skater carries out self-isolation on a suburban area, so she has the opportunity to diversify her exercises. So, she created herself an obstacle course from auxiliary objects and passed it with ease.
“How do you like this training? It all started with the fact that I just stumbled upon an old video as I walk through an obstacle course. And I decided to try to do something like this at home. I got two options, I liked jumping on the tires more, ”said Shcherbakova.
In addition, the vice-champion of Europe shared a joyful event. A new pet appeared in her family - a puppy named Sandy.

The frankness of Tuktamysheva and the memories of Pogorila
Meanwhile, 2015 world champion Elizabeth Tuktamysheva continues to share the details of her personal life. She said that she is still in good relations with ex-boyfriend, figure skater Andrei Lazukin. According to her, the gap was due to the realization that they did not fit together.
At the same time, the athlete admitted that the young man had everything that she liked in men.
“I had little experience in relationships, so I don’t know who is the perfect man for me. What should be in a person so that he can win my sympathy? Humor, openness and love of music, books. That is, he should be with such ... Probably, with a subtle soul, but at the same time slobber, ”RIA Novosti quoted Tuktamysheva as saying.
In the world of figure skating, student Alexei Mishin is known for her open character and the fact that she is not afraid to take risks. Last season, Tuktamysheva was in the spotlight because of her show number for the song Britney Spears Toxic. She went to the ice in a flight attendant costume, and at the end of the room she took off her jacket and remained in one bodice.
The skater noted that she would be able to take part in a candid photo shoot if she received such an offer: “The main thing is to do it beautifully, but it didn’t go. For example, in some beautiful underwear. We’re not saying that you need to stand up naked and that's it, on the cover of the magazine. ”
However, for fans of the 23-year-old skater, the more joyful news, perhaps, will be that she does not intend to end her career, despite the enormous competition in the Russian team. At a minimum, this will not happen until 2022, as Elizabeth intends to do everything possible to qualify for her first Olympics.
While the bronze medalist of the 2016 World Cup Anna Pogorilaya, who did not go on the ice in official starts from the 2017/18 season, is in no hurry to retire. She remembered how she learned the quadruple salchow and the triple axel and shared the archived video of the first attempt to execute them in training in 2016.

Trankov’s experiences and Yagudin’s parody
Two-time Olympic champion Tatyana Volosozhar decided to indulge in memories. For most of her career, she performed with her future spouse Maxim Trankov and during this time she managed to study his character well. According to her, the partner always worried during the execution of emissions, since in training this element they often did not work out.
“What courage is needed to throw a woman in the air and watch her land?” Maxim repeatedly told me that he was very worried at the time of the ejection. After all, experienced partners notice all the nuances during the flight and can understand in advance that there is a possibility of a fall or error when leaving, ”Volosozhar wrote on her Instagram page.
In addition, the ex-skater talked about another episode of her career, which did not reach the general public. During the team tournament at the Olympics in Sochi, the couple broke a strict rule, according to which items of clothing should not fall on the ice. A button came off at Trankov’s costume during the rental.
“I quickly forgot about it and plunged into the rental. And Maxim for the rest of the time thought about the likelihood that the judges noticed this and lowered our score ... Even worse was the thought that the button could prevent us from speaking. During the bow, Max ran his eyes across the ice and looked for the unfortunate runaway. But we are lucky! Nobody noticed anything, and he managed to find and carefully lift it, ”Volosozhar shared her memories.
Two-time world champion Irina Slutskaya also decided to remember the past, focusing the attention of fans on her images. The former athlete admitted that she loves to experiment with appearance, resulting in numerous changes of hairstyles.

“I am always different. I experimented a lot with hair. And painted, and cut off the bangs, and repainted again! As a result, I settled on this color. Do you like to experiment? Which image do you like more? ”Slutskaya asked.
The 2002 Olympic champion Alexei Yagudin, on the other hand, continues to shoot funny videos, trying to cheer fans up in difficult times. This time, he spoiled an episode from the film "Operation" Y "and Shurik's other adventures, using a video to convey his attitude towards self-isolation.

Eugene Plushenko does not lag behind the former colleague. He recorded a romantic video in which his wife, music producer Yana Rudkovskaya acted as a clockwork doll. The couple performed a short dance, and another unchanging hero in their video was watching what was happening - son Alexander.
"Eugene and his Pinocchio, or rather Malvina," wrote Rudkovskaya.
