During a panel discussion at the ‘India Today Conclave’, Chopra said that Bartonietz’s methods suit him as the bio-mechanical expert cracks jokes even during intense sessions making training thoroughly enjoyable.
Describing his German coach Klaus Bartonietz as the “best” for him, Olympic gold-winning javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra on Friday said that he would like to continue their spectacular partnership in the 2024 Paris Games as well.
During a panel discussion at the ‘India Today Conclave’, Chopra said that Bartonietz’s methods suit him as the bio-mechanical expert cracks jokes even during intense sessions making training thoroughly enjoyable.
“At times, I don’t like to be very serious during training sessions. Koi coach aise hote hey, danda pakadke pichhe khade hote hain (There are some coaches who stand with a stick). But Klaus sir is different,” the 23-year-old said as he sat flanked by India’s first individual Olympic gold-medallist, Abhinav Bindra.
