RETIREMENT THOUGHTS
She considered retiring from the sport after experiencing severe pain in her back and her knee in 2017. Doctors and physiotherapists had been unable to solve the problem, but she then met coach Aleksander Harisanow who realised that her posture on the bike was wrong. "If I hadn't met coach Harisanow, I wouldn't be doing competitive sports anymore. I was initially diagnosed with a herniated disc, but that was wrong. Rather, it was a result of excessive training with an incorrect posture. My back was totally crooked. Resuming training against the pain was not healthy. I went to many doctors and physiotherapists. Nobody could really help me. Coach Harisanow's first goal was to get the pain under control. I really started from scratch and rebuilt my body. We started very calmly. He had the necessary sensitivity and knew what training I needed in the weight room; not too much, but not too little either." (lr-online.de, 19 Dec 2019)
