Russian President Vladimir Putin stepped on the tatami of the Yug-Sport sports center in Sochi after reassuring the tripartite summit on Syria.

Putin met with representatives of the national teams in freestyle wrestling, boxing and judo. Then the president changed into kimono to train with the athletes. He worked in tandem with several Olympic champions.

President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin injured his right hand finger during a training session at the Yug-Sport sports training center in Sochi.

Today, February 14, Vladimir Putin visited the Yug-Sport sports training center in Sochi. The Russian leader inspected the premises of the center, briefly spoke with representatives of the Russian national boxing, judo and free-style wrestling teams, and also took part in the training.

However, during a training session with the Russian national judo team, when Putin was practicing the shot, he injured his right hand finger.

Recall that this sport complex has existed for three years and more than 100 Russian and international competitions, including taekwondo, karate, fencing and table tennis, have been held in it. The complex has all the conditions for training athletes in 54 summer and winter sports.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is getting better mood and helping to look at the world without rose-colored training glasses on tatami. The head of the Russian state told about this after training with judoists in the Sochi sports center Yug Sport.

Putin stressed that this is a well-known medical fact: for a person who exercises, adrenaline rises and mood improves. You look at life differently, the president admitted. Judo training more allows Putin, by his own admission, to unload his head or recharge his batteries. This is a complex effect: rose-colored glasses are removed, everything starts to turn out.

Putin changed his clothes after meeting with Turkish and Iranian presidents Tayyip Recep Erdoğan and Hassan Rouhani in kimono and on the Sochi tatami worked out throws and various techniques together with several Olympic champions.

“The more upscale the athlete, the more worthwhile,” Putin shared his impressions of sparring. “He feels everything at his fingertips, what is called. Not only he feels, but also understands what is happening. And where necessary, he will help, and support. And then it’s safe with him. ”
