Coach Anatoliy Timoshchuk shares about the first phase of Zenit's training session

Zenit coach Anatoliy Timoshchuk had interesting shares about the players' work in the early stages of summer training. According to him, the players are in better shape than in the winter, thanks to the physical tests they have done.

"Currently, the players have completed the Montyoni test and we have compared the results with the test in winter. Obviously, the players are in better condition. However, we still maintain a light level of training so that they can gradually get used to the work," said Timoshchuk.

Every day, the team conducts two practice sessions. Yesterday, the players worked out in the gym, and today it was jogging. Coach Timoshchuk also shared that "smiles gradually disappeared from their faces" as the pressure increased, but overall the atmosphere in the team was still very positive.

All the players were happy to see each other again after the break, and there were a number of new recruits and young players joining the team. This has created a new atmosphere, helping everyone quickly integrate into the training process.
