Chapter 283: Yoga Worked
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Early in the morning, Feng Zhu woke up and got up from his bed .
Suddenly, when he recalled what he did last night, he realized he had been foolish . Yoga? I am a professional player . How can yoga be effective? What's wrong with me? Maybe Coach Li went mad, but why I was so stupid then?
Besides, Coach Li was unfamiliar with those yoga postures, and his actions were uncoordinated, just like a beginner . How could he teach others when he is not so skillful?
The more he thought, the more Feng Zhu felt yoga was not reliable . After stabilizing his emotions, he thought that it was time to tell Dai Li that they should not waste time on yoga .
After breakfast, Feng Zhu went to the training ground and prepared for the day's training .
"Feng Zhu, come over for stretching!" The coach who was responsible for Feng Zhu motioned .
Stretching was the first thing for a ping pong player's daily training . It could be viewed as a warm-up before exercise, which could effectively prevent muscle strain . In terms of the characteristics of ping pong, stretching was a must before training .
Professional athletes tended to stretch more, so the pain would be more intense . Although professional athletes stretched before training every day, the stretches always seemed to be very painful, causing the athletes to grind their teeth and even scream . Athletes were so miserable when they stretched that people called ping pong coaches "leg tearers" on the internet .
As Feng Zhu lay on the ground, Coach Kong, the leg tearer, was doing his work faithfully .
"Feng Zhu, are you okay?" Coach Kong asked, while tearing Feng Zhu's legs .
"Sure, why not?" Feng Zhu was a little confused .
"Isn't it painful?" Coach Kong continued .
"A little sore," Feng Zhu answered .
"If it hurts, just call it out . You don't need put up with it," Coach Kong went on . "Normally, you would certainly call out in pain at this degree of stretch . However, you have said nothing today . . . "
Looking up at the degree of stretching, Feng Zhu was also surprised slightly .
What's wrong with me today? Stretching to such a degree was just a bit sore . Could it be the yoga last night was really effective?
The next second, Feng Zhu shook his head . No way! I am a professional player . How could yoga be effective!
. . .
"Nice! Nice catching!" Coach Zheng couldn't help but start clapping for Feng Zhu .

"Feng Zhu, you seem to be in great condition today . You couldn't catch such a ball before," his opponent also said .
"Did I?" Feng Zhu thought back carefully and realized that he was more coordinated than before . As for some difficult skills, he usually completed them but with skill distortion . However, distortions were occurring much less today .
Is it really because of yoga? This idea came into Feng Zhu's mind again .
The whole day, Feng Zhu's training had been extremely smooth . Especially in one-on-one confrontation practice, where he even frequently used hard skills .
Feng Zhu himself could clearly feel the changes in his body .
Until now, Feng Zhu still didn't believe that this was because of yoga . However, except for yoga, nothing else had changed .
After a whole day's training, Feng Zhu rested for a while and appeared outside the training room with his head full of doubts, preparing to do yoga .
This morning when he got up, he thought that doing yoga was stupid, and he even wanted to stop doing it . However, what happened during the day changed his mind .
Still I don't think doing yoga is reliable . But now, better to believe something than nothing! Thinking this, Feng Zhu entered the training room .

The next morning .
Stretching for Feng Zhu, Coach Kong said, "Feng Zhu, I think your muscles are much looser today than two days ago . "
"Looser? I didn't relax my training recently . I'm a little fatter, right?" Feng Zhu answered casually .
"Not that kind of loose . It's relaxation . Your muscles were very rigid before . I could feel it when I helped you stretch . It was so rigid that I was afraid of hurting you when I exerted more strength . " Tearing the leg to a larger degree, Coach Kong went on, "But since yesterday, it has been different . Your muscles are not so rigid . Today is better than yesterday . "
Feng Zhu nodded thoughtfully . The first thing that came to his mind was the yoga that he did last night .
Coach Li's yoga is really effective! It's amazing that something like yoga works for professional athletes!
In this way, as a week passed, Feng Zhu progressed at an almost visible speed .
Feng Zhu himself could clearly feel that his flexibility was improving every day . Every time before training, the degree of his stretching was becoming larger and larger . And in daily confrontation training, he performed hard skills more and more smoothly .
. . .
Other players started to discuss Feng Zhu's recent performance .

"Feng Zhu is in perfect condition lately . I was completely defeated every time I practiced with him!"
"Exactly . I have no confidence to practice with him now . Last time, he gave me five points ahead, but I was still defeated . "
"Feng Zhu practiced overtime even after daily training . So it's normal to be so excellent . "
"He practiced overtime before, but why is he so good now? I think he was enlightened all at once . "
"The National Table Tennis Championship is about to begin, and I can't be slothful anymore . I'll go with him and practice more tonight!"
"I'll go with you!"
. . .
In the training room .
"Coach Li, I would not believe yoga could be so effective if I didn't experience it myself . If I had known that, I would have attended a yoga class two years ago!" Feng Zhu said excitedly .
"My yoga is different from others . This is specially designed for athletes, not like the kind of yoga in the gym," Dai Li said, as it was true .
Unexpectedly, Feng Zhu believed him . For the first reason, he didn't know other yoga coaches . For the second reason, Dai Li's yoga helped him with his body flexibility . At this time, Feng Zhu viewed Dai Li's words as truth .
"I must do well in this National Table Tennis Championship . It will be best if I can defeat one or two national champions!" Feng Zhu said with great morale . "I want to prove that I am qualified for the national team!"Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
