I’m just a little bit worried about the fact that Orser didn’t mention one of Hanyu’s (real) biggest problems : the asthma. May be Yuzuru “didn’t know where he should be standing on the blade” but in the second part of his FS his respiration is always so difficult and painful!
I hope it’s safe and healthy to double his previous daily training schedule to try to solve his respiratory pathology..
To be honest, I'm not worried at all about that. I'm sure the JSF are checking Orser's every move, and Yuzuru is old enough to speak up if his training is giving him trouble, he has to be pretty familiar with his problems by now and even if he wasn't, his mom is there in Canada with him.
By the way, there are loads of top athletes that have asthma and train for far more than two hours a day with no problem. Even track and field. Which is why I wonder if it's really asthma that gives him problems in the latter half of his programs or just him being 'not so strong physically' like he said once.
