Russia has basically destroyed most of their elite and veteran force early on in the invasion. Most people arriving at the frontline have barely any training. They do recruit around 1000 new "volunteers" every day, so the numbers are just a bit behind their average daily losses. But the quality of the new troops is of course abysmal.
