I decided to create a sports club during the Soviet times. It was my dream.

First do it, then say it.

I think that, generally, you need to live with your sport 24 hours a day.

I have bought pole vault equipment, the landing areas, posts, which costs a lot of money. We pay for coaches

And, of course, method is very important as is a high-quality specialist (trainer) working with you to keep you going in the right direction for your improvement and to help create results.

You need to work very hard, you have to spend a lot of time practicing your sport - six to seven hours daily.

I began with track and field because this is what I know.
