The 23-year-old Haryana-based Olympics winner who was speaking at the ‘India Today Conclave’, said that Bartonietz's methods of training suit him as he makes even the most intense sessions entertaining.

Chopra who is under Bartonietz's guidance since 2019 was earlier training under another former German record holder Uwe Hohn who was released after he had multiple differences with the Athletic Federation.
