Psychologically, she seems far from unbreakable to me. There are few skaters who I've seen get as emotional as often as Lena, even among skaters as young her.Psychologically she seems unbreakable to me. At this young age I dont remember anybody with her level of mental integrity. But physically I think they are going to push her over the limit. Some girls are built for the iron hand training - she isnt.
Being able to withstand pressure in competition is one thing, but being able to withstand the pressure of expectations (from yourself, your parents, coaches, or fans) and keep the joy and motivation outweighing the negativity is another, and that's what I'm worried about for her (see Kevin Aymoz, though he's much older).
