He has arrived to Shakhty city in 1961 from Kisilevsk city from the Kemerovo region (deserved trainer of USSR V. K. Dorokhin tells). Before this time weightlifting, literally and figuratively, was in a cellar of city Palace of sport.
Being in the good relationships with 1-th the secretary of city CPSU Kazantsev S.Y. and under the recommendation of the official ministry of coal industry Bratchenko (later minister of coal industry), begins to organize training process in Shakhty's city Palace of sport.

All of them the numerous champions of the world and Europe have established 74 world records (4+8+62). Nobody can brag in the world of such figures.
They did not love him in all-USSR team, but his method of the large loadings had the right on life, giving positive results. He did not approve lifting of high-level weights during trainings and in every possible way with this interfered. Him considered and consider as the dictator, but he is unique in the world has brought up 3 champions of the world.
1966 V. Alekseev has come to Plukfelder, being the master of sport. Later they have parted as the trainer and pupil.
In 1969 in Tuapse (V. K. Dorokhin tells), In 1969 in Tuapse (V. K. Dorokhin tells), on the training assembly, in a hall has come some guy. He has looked around.
Plukfelder has asked: What's hap, do you want to take hot?
Guy has answered: I'm master of weightlifting.
Plukfelder: Lift it, we'll see...
That guy has lifted the weight.
Plukfelder: Do you want to training?
Guy: I want into the big sport. I mean it!
Plukfelder directs him to Shakhty city.
That guy was to nobody known David Adamovich Righert.
Plukfelder was not the supporter of worthy payment of the sportsmen work. He spoke, that there is no sense to pay to the people, which nothing does. The sportsmen then have received practically kopecks. Attention of Plukfelder (Pluk - in environment of Shakhty's weightlifters) focalized (in a mean of payment) those sportsmen, who began "to give result". D. Righert and V. Alekseev lived in that time "on a milk and bread". Ate in a cafe of a mining technical school (on Sadovaia street).
For comparison, it is possible to tell, members of the all-USSR team got the grant from 300 to 350 rubles. While the "beginning" masters of sport - 80-100 rubles per month. The trainers - 120-180 rubles.
