Quote
A successful performance is a much greater test for an athlete than a failure. After a failure, you get upset and move on, but here the emotions are off the charts, the load is extreme, and you're constantly working above your limits.
In every training session, I try to get full concentration from the athletes. Sprinters can't go at half-strength; everything here has to be at maximum right away.[7]
