Zurab Kakhabrishvili: "Our Sportsmen Have a Psychologist and a Fitness Coach as Well"

On 20-22 March Tbilisi Sports Palace will host Grand Prix. “World Sport” talked to Zurab Kakhabrishvili, doctor of the Georgia Olympic teams, about this and other important issues.

- How are our judokas meeting Grand Prix?

- Adam Okruashvili has a cardiac arrhythmia. I think it is because of extra weight. We will examine Adam and find out the reason of arrhythmia. Avtandil Chrikishvili has gastrointestinal problems. We will examine him tomorrow. Other judokas do not have serious injuries.

- What about other sports?

- Iakob Kajaia, heavyweight of Greco-Roman wrestling team, has a virus but he will regain shape soon. Weightlifter Raul Tsirekidze was operated on his shoulder and needs time for rehabilitation. Davit Marsagishvili has broken eyebrow and will not be able to practice for some days. Other sportsmen do not have serious injuries.

- You often visit our website and you want to answer some comments.

- I often visit your website and read comments. I accept criticism but a lot of wrong information is written that sportsmen do not have psychologist and fitness coach. Malkhaz Davitashvili is a psychologist of our sportsmen and Avto Kobakhidze is a fitness coach. They will be with the sportsmen before the Olympics. I want to say to all fans that they can apply to me and I will answer their questions.
