The preparation of the Italian national short track team will continue throughout the month of August, on the track of the Bormio ice rink, recently chosen as the new federal technical center. Three weeks of work for the senior team coached by Assen Pandov and Ludovic Mathieu, obviously without Arianna Fontana who is based in Budapest on the way to the great goal of the Beijing 2022 Olympic Games.
Another important stage for the Azzurri, this third official meeting after the meeting in Baselga di Pinè and then the move to Bormio. “We will continue in line with the work carried out so far in the previous weeks and in particular in the last camp in Bormio. The two most important objectives will be to develop aerobic capacity on ice and strength off the track thanks to the work in the gym studied by our trainer Carlo Varalda - explains the blue coach Assen Pandov - The ISU has communicated the official calendar of the next season, but we still don't have the absolute certainty that the first two stages of the World Cup scheduled in Canada in November will be played.
In any case, we are preparing for that appointment and so, according to the table, we will also introduce further anaerobic and specific work from September ”.
These are the athletes called for the meeting in Valtellina: Nicole Botter Gomez (Fiamme Oro), Gloria Ioriatti (Fiamme Oro), Cecilia Maffei (Fiamme Azzurre), Cynthia Mascitto (Skating Club Courmayeur), Arianna Sighel (Fiamme Oro), Arianna Valcepina ( Fiamme Gialle), Martina Valcepina (Fiamme Gialle), Elena Viviani (Fiamme Gialle), Mattia Antonioli (Army), Andrea Cassinelli (Fiamme Gialle), Yuri Confortola (Carabinieri), Augusto Duzioni (Sport Evolution Skating), Marco Giordano (Carabinieri) , Milan Grugni (Sport Evolution Skating), Luca Lim (Sprinters Ice Turin), Pietro Marinelli (Bormio Ghiaccio), Pietro Sighel (Fiamme Gialle), Luca Spechenhauser (Fiamme Oro) and Davide Viscardi (Army).
Together with the group also Tommaso Dotti (Fiamme Oro), engaged in the post-operation rehabilitation process after the fracture of the fibula and ankle of the right leg suffered on 21 July last. “I am beginning to see progress and this gives great confidence - the words of the Milanese athlete - I will try to stay as much as possible with the staff and the group to accelerate recovery times. The mood is positive and I will do my best to return 100% ”.
