Victoria Komova: for me it has just begun!
Today, April 10, held a press conference dedicated to the European Championships in artistic gymnastics in Moscow (April 17-21). Two-time Olympic medalist Victoria Komova-2012 does not perform at the Moscow championship. On his physical form and hopes for the coming launches Victoria Komova told the special correspondent of the Agency of sport information "All Sport" Mary Vorobevoj.
- Now I'm feeling very well, - said Victoria Komova. - Of course, all the girls, who train together on the basis of "Round Lake", I certainly support it, because they know very well how hard it is to recover. But not only do they support me - I also cheer on them before an important start! I always cry out to them when they are working on some shells (smiles). Now we have a really close-knit team - after the Olympic Games in London, we have become more solid and united.
- How do you support your teammates at the European Championships?
- As the championship will be our home and will be held in Moscow, we expect that there will be really a lot of our friends. Let us all cry together and support our kids! I was allowed to step on the platform - Maria Apiary asked me - and here I am somehow very carefully to stand next to the shells and help the guys. Simply, we already know all the keywords that you have to shout to each athlete to provide some support.
- Victoria, your coaches say that you are very grown up and in general have changed. How are undergoing training?
- Actually, I'm in training is very hard. After all, things change - and technology, and now I have to swing twice. But I'll do my best!
- Immediately after the 2012 Olympics you practice outside of the core team. Now joined the team?
- Yes, now I have been training with the first team, even trying to work in full force. And I'd have to act! Already can not wait for when that moment (laughs).
- Valentine Rodionenko said that the nearest major start - Universiade in Kazan. Want to take part there?
- Yes! I do, and at the European Championships really wanted to act. After all, in Moscow at this level of competition we have not acted. But, unfortunately, did not happen.
- Your programs have changed by developments in the rules?
- So far the program has not changed - I do everything under the old scheme. The fact that my coach pulled away for a short while now, and as soon as it arrives, we will begin to work and adapt to the new rules. While I'm alone, I can not do anything (laughs). The most important thing now is to take the time to restore your body completely - everything should be done gradually and, most importantly, with the mind!
- As a general evaluation of his form at the moment?
- Yes, as long as something not very much (laughs). For me, everything is just beginning!
