The two-time Olympic medalist has partly reduced the concepts expressed yesterday by Dmitri Soloviev leaving a door open to participation in national championships.
"Yesterday when I read the statements of Dmitri I was very surprised," said Zhulin, "but, after speaking with him, I discovered that his words had been misinterpreted by reporters Russians. Actually & agrave ;, we placed two objectives for the coming months. First & egrave, to be able to participate in the National Championships in late December, the second one & egrave, to not emulate Maxim Shabalin, who had to prematurely close the racing career to have forced the timing of recovery after undergoing a knee surgery.'s' operation Dmitri you & egrave; carried out in compliance with the plans, but if it were to serve more & ugrave, time to resume full functionality & agrave; knee we do not put sideways and wait. In truth & agrave ;, we could also stall before the & rsquo; intervention, but, unfortunately, injuries to the knees, including those of lesser entities with agrave ;, with time are likely to become more & ugrave; serious, not to mention that the situation could have been degenerate before important events. We perci & ograve; decided to use all at once & rsquo; surgery to avoid worse. Dance & egrave; become a discipline pi & ugrave; challenging than in the past and injuries are always more & ugrave; at & rsquo; agenda. Each element must be rehearsed to exhaustion with the consequences that the knees and leg muscles often end up overloaded with pain to the ligaments. In my life as an athlete I have suffered several injuries, but, fortunately, no one at the knees. However, the examples also foreigners careers compromised knee injuries are not lacking. A good coach should create conditions in order that & egrave; the knees are not overwhelmed by the hard work on the ice and protected permanently. In any case, if the plans will be respected, we hope to be able to compete in the Golden Spin of Zagreb in December to make the dress rehearsal ahead of the national championships. I, Ekaterina and Dmitri, for ograve & ;, we reason in the long term and to achieve the results we seek & egrave; need to be healthy & rdquo; .Confrontando the caveats of Alexander Zhulin with the statements made yesterday by Dmitri Soloviev, l & rsquo; impression & egrave; that the concepts are, on balance, the same. The dream of the working group & egrave; clearly to be able to make time for the National Championships at the end of December, but if there was a chance & agrave; to train in the best way, to postpone his return to the race would not be a problem.
