According to him, Shcherbakova is preparing a program with quadruple lutz and flip, but at this stage it is too risky to perform both jumps.
“All athletes have this perception: if you do a good quadruple, then the further is more difficult.
If you are wrong on the first, then there are very few chances on the second.
So far we have limited ourselves to one, but our goal is to approach the Russian championship with two or three, "RIA Novosti quotes Gleichengauz.
He noted that at the Grand Prix stage in Moscow, the athlete, at best, will perform with two quads in a free program.
Shcherbakova won the third stage of the Russian Cup in Sochi.
On the sum of the two programs, she scored 239.91 points.
Earlier, Elizaveta Tuktamysheva spoke about the possible inclusion of a quadruple jump in the program.
