“A good coach is a bit of a guru, sensei. He should teach you to think correctly and build your life, and not just lift a barbell. A coach as a teacher truly changes lives. For example, I am a tough coach, it is important for me to stir up, anger a person, squeeze the seven sweats out of him, force him to leave his comfort zone. I believe that a coach is a dominant, a parent, a teacher, and not a lisping nanny. He rarely praises, but for the purpose, which is why such praise is especially valuable. It is important for me that a person sets goals for himself and achieves them with me.”
