training center for cosmonaut training. sasha, hello, hello anton, i know that you didn’t start your coaching career at the cosmonaut training center. how did you even get to join us at the cpc? yes, that’s right, i started my coaching career with children, as a coach, teacher, and when anna joined the squad, and anna is anna kikina, your wife. yes, yes, yes, my wife, oh, we collected her documents together at that time, she joined the detachment, and i came to the center to work as a specialist, a physical training teacher. tell me how the selection for the cosmonaut corps takes place, namely, from the point of view of physical training, from the point of view physical training, selection for the cosmonaut corps takes place, like probably all selections, for some specialized professions, where... physical training

plays an important role, you need to naturally select the most dexterous, the strongest, by the way, you are quite dexterous, and you didn’t try together well then, should i submit documents with anna? but then no, in fact, then everything was a little even fabulous, and i just didn’t even believe it? now sometimes i don’t quite believe that this is happening, well, the first selection, as you remember, it was unexpected, let’s say, for yes, this we had our first open enrollment in 2012, yes, for the first time we had an open enrollment, where really anyone, well, who fits certain requirements, could submit an application to try to get into the cosmonaut detachment, yes, then all our attention was focused on to submit anya’s documents and organize her admission, and it happened, it’s very... well, tell me,

these are the requirements, what exercises a future candidate for the cosmonaut corps needs, a candidate for cosmonaut needs to be able to run, jump, swim, how far to run, run, you need to be able to shuttle run, 10 by 10, shuttle run, this is 10 m, 10 m, 10 times, without stopping, with a change of direction, yes, of course, everything is on a stopwatch, and you also need to be able to run 1 km, a distance in the shortest time, of course, and do you remember what digital indicators, maybe someone is just thinking about it now or is preparing for the selection, yeah, the next ones, the digital indicators are actually not some completely cosmic, olympic ones , yes, yes, they are olympic, you can run a kilometer in 3 minutes, 20 seconds and a kilometer of 3:20, this will be a passing grade, yes, of course, everyone in all exercises.

swimming we have at 800 m, this is one of the stages and you also need to swim it in no more than 20 minutes, and if you don’t know how to swim, if you don’t know how to swim, then unfortunately, we don’t provide training at the selection, we can of course suggest the direction , where exactly to swim, but nothing more than how to swim correctly, you don’t know how to swim correctly. most likely yes, this requirement is mandatory, just like reading, writing, that is, yes, perhaps someone i missed this in life, but this is a necessary requirement , what else, besides, besides we also have, well, a standard standing jump, flexibility

is checked, from a place, also at a distance, and two, from a place forward, and the distance is measured, and 2 m 40 cm is quite enough. you need to jump forward, pushing off with both legs, absolutely right , but about the trampoline, there was something with the trampoline, protut, oh yes, we also have a trampoline, everything is very simple on the trampoline, let’s say, exercises on the trampoline, we have such , like turns, that is, a person must break away from the surface of the trampoline without less than 60 cm, and make a series of turns of 90, 180 and 360°, it is quite simple. the exercise, as it seems, is quite indicative, but it is interesting because it is not difficult, without injury, it shows a person’s ability to control his body in such a prototype of deweighting, no, well, i remember, i always liked the trampoline, well, as a pilot, we are with

the trampoline familiar from flight school, that is, not just turns, that is, it is a somersault, and i always liked the trampoline, with pleasure, it shows your coordination, swimming, well i remember swimming, yes, we swam, but the most difficult thing for me was to enter the water with a 5-meter back, but this was no longer in the selection process, it already happened somewhere, it was not in the selection process, it’s all already in the process, then yes, we first lure you in with the fact that it’s easy for us, and then then tell me the following , a candidate for cosmonaut passed the selection process, he was enrolled in the detachment, not yet an astronaut, a candidate cosmonaut, then how is his physical education and life going? him in the gym, after ... our applicant is enrolled as a candidate, he has been in the group for two years okp, general space training, prepares as per its specialization, that is, it studies all the systems, ships, stations, and also improves physically, and classes

are held at least three times a week, and sometimes there are parts, yes, these are two-hour classes, probably the most golden time for precisely improving your physical fitness, so what do they do, run, jump, everything is exactly the same, that is, we use almost the same simulators, exercises that athletes use, the only difference is that an athlete usually specializes in something narrowly focused and achieves results in this, we have very versatile astronauts, physically developed differently, so he needs to be able to run, swim, jump and perform complex coordination exercises on a trampoline , at the same time, they also know how to dive for breath-holds quite decently, how much is needed, well , twenty for admission is enough, a swimming pool - yes, later, of course, we

improve all this, breath-holds, but besides - trainers play football, badminton, team sports, yes, of course , they are always present at... the stage of general space training, maybe not to the same extent, but subsequently they directly become an integral part of the life of every astronaut and everyone chooses for themselves what then a game, some kind of direction and often achieves very high results, well, let’s even take you, you play tennis, badminton, aleksandelno, the physical education department is the cosmonaut’s favorite place where you can come, keep in shape, relax, socialize, it’s good that we have such an opportunity, a good one... a base - where we can cosmonauts right at work, the time for which we are paid a salary, go in for sports, that’s very good, yes, it ’s nice to hear, thank you, especially such coaches , well, like you, yes, we each have a champion in our own way, different directions , now you play

badminton quite well, you are a runner with us, skiing and so on, and our other teachers who can also teach you and play table tennis. and so on, it's expensive it’s worth it, look, we talked about selection and okp, tell us how relationships occur directly during the preparation for the flight of the astronaut, he is in the crew, in the crews, after joining the crew, the astronaut does not have much time, in general, for everything, probably for everything, he starts working non-stop, well, i think you’re great, you know this and remember, you have to study, definitely, and every opportunity, every chance that can be used in order to get some kind of psycho-emotional relief get it by immersing yourself in physical education. cosmonauts, of course, always use it with pleasure, but we must say that the crew always has its own instructor

, who is assigned to the crew, if i don’t know, in the stage, if i was alone , a russian, then i had a personal one, if i was there with someone - i’m flying, well, for the two of us there is always a personal trainer, you can remember how much you trained in the crew and i don’t know, maybe you remember the first crew, the very first, i remember, the very first crew, it was your crew, just us then together with we worked in pairs with petrenchuk, he was the leading teacher, he passed on his experience to you, he passed on his experience to me, and our first trip was to dakanur, it was very interesting, of course, such an amazing event, for the first time to take part in all this from the inside, for the first time to see how really, here it is, a rocket takes off into the air and flies into space with those people with whom you... worked together yesterday, these are of course indescribable emotions, i remember this is

a very, very bright event, we have physical education every day before the start, of course, yes, yes, and i think we start the ones where we wake up, go for a walk or a jog, that is, from morning to evening, sometimes in the evenings there is a bathhouse, where we also all go together, we try to steam ourselves before a six-month flight, but somehow this remember already, the rocket has flown away, the work does not end there, for a while, let's say... it is suspended while the crew flies to the station, after that the task force that accompanied the crew before the flight, that is, we almost bring the crew to the rocket, then they flies away, and we accordingly we return to the astronaut training center, well, the connection remains, we have a connection, of course , every week we have a connection with the trainer, where we can tell how we do what, well, in any case, we, well, there is a treadmill, an exercise bike and even.

.. you can always ask the coach to correct, well, help you, at least , consultations, adjustments, yes, of course, this is understandable when there is a lot of flying experience, but there are still those who fly for the first time, i think that invaluable, of course, the experience of the words that you you will always find it, help you stay in shape, yes, of course, and feedback is very important, that is, astronauts, they also give us feedback, they enrich us, precisely as specialists, we constantly. we are in this work, every flight is unique, every cosmonaut is unique , you know very well, it’s in space that the real physical activity begins, because regardless of the fact that the day off is a holiday, if on this day you have an open air, then you need physical training don't plan, these 2 hours are holy, it doesn't matter, i i’ll say again what day it is on the calendar, but you will have 2 hours of physical education , which we usually, well, break into two blocks, yes, it’s either a treadmill and a machine and yes, an american machine that replaces weight lifting, such as a barbell

and there are dumbbells, yes, everything is like that, everything is as you say, hello everyone, my name is nastya zadorozhnaya, and i love dogs very much, come here, come here, i decided to change my life, instead of being an actress, i chose volunteering, she is incredible helps me raise... kids, what we had without dogs and what what has become now - these are two different lives, since i have a dog, i feel more strongly that i am a person, well, this is a wonderful dog, which has already saved two human lives, this is not just a pet, this is that creature , which accompanies you everywhere, dogs love us, dogs love me... us, dogs teach us, dogs save us, dogs

are a whole world, a world in which there is one important rule, always be close, season premiere, be close, soon on the first, we continue talking about physical training astronauts. with coach alexander serdyak and me, anton shkablerov. so what do you think, you, well, i already have experience, yes, and having analyzed more than one crew, how do the indicators improve or worsen over a six-month flight? yes, the question is so interesting, well, for example, you get data, he was flying away or in the first days he was doing some heavy lifting , and you see that he is starting to move down, that is, his performance is deteriorating, for a six-month flight, let’s say, it’s work in space the astronaut definitely improves, but the physical state of the body for ordinary

life on earth, well...
