Former Russian figure skater Evgenia Kosygina spoke about the weight requirements for athletes. She is quoted by Match TV.
“There are weight requirements in all forms – in dances, in pairs, in singles. Girls hear all the time – don't eat, don't eat, lose weight, lose weight, ”said Kosygina. She added that dramatic changes in appearance are not welcomed in figure skating, but often athletes change their hairstyles to attract the attention of judges.
