And ends with a workout in the gym, stretching exercises, development of strength and flexibility. In biathlon, there are several types of competitions with their own rules and features, they are united by the need for accurate shooting at targets. If the athlete misses, he will ski for additional time or go through additional laps. Children master shooting techniques at the shooting range. They learn how to properly load a gun, take it at the ready, aim correctly and pull the trigger in time. At competitions, they shoot standing or lying down. Sports skills of accurate shooting are formed for several years. The coach teaches how to stand and lie down correctly during shooting, everything is important here - the tilt of the head, the position of the arms and legs. All movements are brought to automatism.
