Presenting the participant of the Russian championship Elizaveta Grechishnikova from the Omsk region

Elizaveta Grechishnikova from the Omsk region trains under the guidance of Tatiana Galaidina. At the competitions in Kazan, the athlete performs according to the Master of Sports candidates program.

Last year, at the Russian championships, Liza won silver in the ribbon exercise and bronze in the all-around group exercises.

The gymnast told how she prepared for the competition in the capital of Tatarstan.

"The preparation is very serious, very difficult. Since I'm still performing in the group exercise, I have to keep up both there and here. In a few days, my other groups will arrive, and we will already be preparing to perform in a group exercise. But I think I've prepared very well for my personal program. There is always a lot of competition at the Russian championship."

Lisa also shared what helps her before going on the carpet.

"The coach helps me a lot, he tells me some kind of parting words. Before going out, I tell myself, "I can do anything, I can do anything, I'll overcome everything," I exhale and already go out onto the carpet."
