From the well-known passion for judo to alpine skiing, racing and fishing-the Russian president has a very good physique and he likes many sports.
As we all know, Vladimir Putin had a certain aversion to Russian folk music in his early childhood. Putin’s father happily played the accordion and forced his son to play his favorite song. However, the future president chose sports instead of music. Putin’s judo coach Anatoly Rachlin (Anatoly Rachlin) once revealed that he must convince Putin’s parents that their son is very talented and that judo is not a dangerous sport.
judo
Vladimir Putin started practicing judo at the age of 11. “In the beginning, I didn’t notice any special tendency, nor did he stand out from others in any way. But after a while, he showed great results. “Vladimir is really on the mat The Panthers, he fought until the last second,” Lalin recalled. Putin is known for throwing opponents on his shoulders and switching while holding opponents in both hands.
Putin became the Leningrad Judo champion at the age of 21 and won the title of Master of Sports. In 1999, the book “Putin’s Judo Class” was published, and the president also participated in the recording of the beginner judo class.
Putin is also familiar with other martial arts, such as karate. He is the holder of the Black Belt on the 8th Day of Extreme Karate.
Alpine skiing
Alpine skiing is another favorite sport of the Russian President. His personal ski instructor is Leonid Diagachev, former chairman of the Russian Olympic Committee, former famous skier and coach.
“Vladimir Putin has not participated in a formal skiing course. At first he repeated the same mistake. But within a few years, he perfected the technique. Now, he is an excellent skier and is moving at high speed. “, Tjagačov said. “We train at night, we will start at midnight and finish at one or two. Now we are trying to ski late at night,” Tjagačov said.
The coach said that Putin’s skills are better than ordinary amateurs, but he still makes some small mistakes. However, all this did not stop Putin from running down the mountain on a snowboard.
hockey
Unlike judo, hockey is one of Putnor’s newer hobbies. On 25th, 2011, at the XNUMXth Winter Universiade in Turkey, Putin promised to learn to skate in a conversation with young athletes. “I used to think it was impossible,” the president said. “I tried it once when practicing martial arts.”
The famous Russian hockey player Alexei Kasatonov, who has won the World Cup for many times, became Putin’s personal hockey coach. There, the president had to practice at night. “A 12-year-old boy told me that he has trained hockey for 9 years. And only two months! I learned to skate with a chair. “Before, I couldn’t even stand on skates,” Putin admitted.
In February 2011, Putin learned to skate and hockey and even scored a few goals. Putin has become a patron of the Russian Night Hockey League, in which Russian politicians and businessmen play with him and raise funds for charity. Putin’s example inspired many Russian celebrities to play hockey. Although, as a member of the Night Hockey League, businessman Oleg Smirnov said, other players must be more careful with Putin. “He is our president and hockey is a contact sport. That’s why we must be careful not to hurt him,” Smirnov said.
drive
Putin’s first car was a “clumsy” Zaporozhets, and his parents won the lottery.
In 2006, Putin drove the 21-year Soviet GAZ-1956 in George W. Bush. In Sochi, he drove the President of the International Olympic Committee up to the Niva River, which has excellent mountain terrain. Both vehicles belong to Putin.
In 2010, Putin carried out a four-day journey of 2000 days in the Russian Far East on the Khabarovsk-Chita route. When a reporter asked him if he felt comfortable while driving and talking, Putin replied that he was very calm and liked to drive. This may be the first time in ten years.
Putin spends most of his time in the back seat of the presidential limousine, although he never misses any opportunity to drive. At the 2018 Sochi Conference, the Russian President drove his Egyptian colleague Sisi to “Aurus”.
Putin also likes sports driving. In 2010, he drove a Formula One car and accelerated to 1 km/h.
diving
When Vladimir is on vacation, he must dive into the bottom of the river or the sea. In 2011, he dived into the bottom of Taman Bay and visited the so-called Russian Atlantis, the submerged ancient Greek city of Farnagoria. He dived to such a deep place with equipment for the second time in his life.
In 2011, Putin and Medvedev dived into the bottom of the Volga River in the Astakhan region of southern Russia to map underwater animals and plants. In December 2017, the President had a short two-day holiday in Tuva to engage in spearfishing.
Hiking
Putin also likes to walk in Tuva, the hometown of Russian Defense Minister Shoigu. In December 2018, Vladimir Putin spent a good few days in the company of Shoigu and the first person of the Federal Security Service Alexander Bortnikov .
The politicians walked through the hills and mountains of the Sakhano-Shusensky National Park. “We sailed across the Yenisei River and walked. We climbed some mountains, some were taken by helicopter, but we always walked on the peaks. “Vladimir Putin is easy to travel long distances,” Sayano -Said Gennady Kiselyov, head of the Shushensky National Park.
Putin seems to enjoy vacationing in Tuva. He has been there several times. In 2008, he took famous photos while riding horses and fishing there.
fishing
Alexander III once said that Europe can wait while the Russian emperor is fishing. Vladimir Putin also likes fishing. “I like fishing, and I look forward to the rare opportunity that I can sit on the shore with reeds. Sometimes work can help me solve this problem. Putin once said: “How can I go fishing in the United States with two American presidents.” “
Tuva is also one of Putin’s favorite fishing spots. In 2013, he caught a 21 kg barracuda, so big that he pulled it out of the water for three minutes. In March 2017, he fished with a spear for two hours. The president said: “The local barracudas are very cunning and cautious, and they will soon sink into the mud.”
“The best fishing spots in the world are the Murmansk region and the Volga Delta in Astrakhan,” the Russian president was convinced.
