- From the Moscow region we brought only 23 athletes, thus were really selected 12, we didn't refuse to the rests, seeing in them potential. Competitions is the training process squeezed 6 minutes where an important role is played by acquired skills. You know, how before examination: you prepare - you prepare, and then at midpoint it seems that you forgot everything. In that case just rescue skills, and all turns out by itself. For a victory wrestlers have to possess still resistance to stress and operational thinking that there was no failure against excitement. Many guys so worry that can't fall asleep, it is necessary to give them soothing. On a carpet, of course, takes place and good luck, but after all it smiles to the worthy. In an elite sport psychologists but while such opportunity isn't present are necessary, this function is carried out by trainers.
Alexey Shchyokov, bronze prize-winner of Superiority of Russia, 50 kg, Moscow region, Podolsk:
- In a semi-final I won, but isn't really happy with myself, it was possible to act much better. On last superiority I took the fifth place, this time arrived to win, but couldn't. Insufficient physical and moral preparation brought, probably, somewhere. The rival in a semi-final was strong, but it isn't it, on a carpet I first of all entered wrestler with myself. Today's defeat set thinking that I made not so, I will work!
