Representatives of the men's and women's national weightlifting teams of Turkmenistan maintain their skills in proper shape by training according to an individual system. This is reported by the newspaper "Neutral Turkmenistan".

For many of them, there is a difficult struggle ahead for tickets to the postponed 2021 Olympics in Tokyo (Japan). Turkmen athletes are serious about achieving high results in the upcoming pre-Olympic qualification competitions.

Training is not 100 percent of the load. Mentors try to control each athlete, explaining the training plan in detail to them, after which the weightlifters regularly perform all the coaching instructions. In standard conditions, training is conducted twice a day, but at present, to avoid injuries and health threats, athletes approach sports equipment only once during the day.

"Athletes will start their scheduled training after the end of the dangerous period of risk of infection with infectious diseases, "Neutral Turkmenistan” newspaper notes.

According to the head coach of the men's national team in an interview with the newspaper "Neutral Turkmenistan", honored coach of Turkmenistan Artur Emiryan, the process of restoring the former sports form will take place during training camps, which must be organized in the conditions of high ground. The weightlifting Federation and the National Olympic Committee have already reached an agreement on this. The ideal place for this, as practice shows, is the capital's multifunctional sports complex "Ashgabat".

In the same period, the Turkmen leading weightlifters will need to pass an important exam during the championship of Turkmenistan, which will show the level of their preparation for the main sports starts of next year, and possibly open up new names of promising athletes.

To date, the national team of Turkmenistan contenders for a trip to Tokyo includes ten athletes: Yulduz Dzhumabayeva, Polina Gurieva, Kristina Shermetova, Gulnabat Kadyrova, Aysoltan Toychieva, Seyitjan Mirzayev, Maksat Meredov, Rejepbay Rejepov, Ovez Ovezov and Khojamuhammedtoychiev. Two of them-Gulnabat Kadyrova and Hojamuhammet Toychiev-already have experience of performing at the main sports competitions of the quadrennial year – at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), and now they have a good chance to represent our country again at the World games.

This year has been very busy for Turkmen weightlifters in terms of "home" training. So, in May, Turkmen weightlifters held three-week training camps in the mountain town of Gokdere. Then the place of training became the sports complex "Ashgabat".

Leading athletes do not relax and conduct intensive training for responsible starts on the international sports arena. In addition to Artur Emiryan, they are assisted by experienced mentors, Honored coaches of Turkmenistan Ikram Matkarimov and Ahmet Saryev, master of sports of international class, four-time Olympic games participant Umurbek Bazarbayev, and Meret Sahetmuradov.
