In Turkey, Neeraj is working hard with his coach Klaus Bartonietz on his strength and said that he is now training at full speed and is throwing with javelins and medicine balls. Some of the key events he is targetting this season is the World Championships, Diamond Leagues and the Commonwealth Games. 

"At the end I would just like to say, the pressure and responsibility after the Tokyo gold medal, I would get to know how much of it is there only when I start throwing in the competition. Let's see how I go."
