First Girevoy Sport Magazine

During his visit to Sydney Ginko mentioned that Russian GS Federation started publishing Girevoy Sport magazine. It was going to be a quarterly publication of about 60 pages on glossy paper. Below is the cover of the first issue.

GS in Russia is taken seriously, just like any other recognized sport. If you are studying in one of many sports universities in that country you can choose GS as your speciality. There are also many formal training sections and clubs where qualified training is available for those willing to learn.

The Magazing was another step in the development of the sport. It is still alive, and this year another issue has been published:

I am not sure how frequently the magazine is published. After the first issue came out I sort of lost sight of it. I have the impression it's once yearly publications. I am planning to order past issues and check for interesting info.
