“Tutberidze has already entered the history of Russian and world figure skating. Before her, few could have imagined that girls could jump triple axels and quads.”

On February 24th Eteri Tutberidze celebrates her 50th Birthday. Here’s a translatiof of the words of the honorary president of the Russian Figure Skating Federation, Valentin Piseev.
“Tutberidze, in my opinion, has already entered the history of Russian and world figure skating. Before her, few could have imagined that girls could jump jumps with three and a half and four rotations.
I can compare her to Stanislav Zhuk. Zhuk was an innovator and pioneer in pair skating, and the same is true for Eteri in women’s singles. Figure skating is a whole life for them.
Some say that she is very tough, but in reality, she is more demanding. She wants her students to fully dedicate themselves to their work.
One cannot but respect Eteri Georgievna; she has raised Russian and world women’s singles figure skating to a new level, which will be difficult to surpass. Eteri has made a huge contribution to making figure skating so popular in the country today.
It’s not by chance. Eteri is a big workaholic and a fan of her craft. She lives and breathes figure skating day and night!
I wish her to continue the work that benefits Russian figure skating,” said the honorary president of the Russian Figure Skating Federation, Valentin Piseev.

In fact, I am a medical student. Even though I dont specialise in sports medicine, all doctors and even medical students know a certain thing. These woman lose a lot of their normal body weight in order to do these elements. Losing too much weight as a woman messes with pulsatile hypothalamic GnRH release. (GnRH -> gonadotropin releasing hormone) Therefore LH and estrogen release is disturbed. They both lose their periods and good effects of estrogen. Estrogen promotes bone health and having little of it is why they are breaking their bones often. (aka stress fractures.) There are tons of effects that I dont have the time to tell. You can google “Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea” in order to read up the most recent information. Thanks for reading until this point.
random-name: i see your some sort of specialist LMAO medical degree in efects of quadruple jumps?
They talk as if first triple axel and quad is done by russians… Tutty didnt invent ultra C elements
Japanese woman did.
The reason they weren’t commonplace is completely valid and training them should be banned. (other than triple axel, since it is kinda possible)
