Chapter 320: Mission Accomplished

Dai Li's first mission in the Dingtian Soccer Club was to help players who needed to lose weight .
For professional soccer players, it was extremely important to keep a healthy weight . Especially during the long off-season, which would last for several months, the training intensity of the players would be lowered and most of them would put on weight . Therefore, the players who could control their weight during the off-season were undoubtedly very self-disciplined .
However, not every player was so self-disciplined . Even the star players might have a weight gain of five to ten kilograms during the off-season . Most of the players just enjoyed themselves during the off-season . It was impossible for them to perform high-intensity training as they did in the team .
The weight gain of five to ten kilograms would obviously influence the performance of the professional soccer players, who might be slower and less flexible; their joint load would also be increased . Many world-class players retired because of their failure in weight control .
If players failed to control their weight, they would have to lose weight in a short time before the new season, so that their weight could be within a reasonable scope .
However, weight loss was quite difficult even for the players . Some players were still overweight when the new season was about to begin .
The essence of weight loss was to eat less and exercise more, which was not only applicable to ordinary people, but also to the players . It was quite normal for professional athletes to skip meals for weight control .
The professional soccer players didn't need to focus on moderating how much they ate . Rather, a balanced diet was more important for them . As long as they could get enough exercise, they would lose weight naturally . Sometimes the promotion of muscle body-contact ability gained through exercise was good for them .
Therefore, guiding the weight loss of professional soccer players was not complicated work, and could easily be handled by ordinary assistants, let alone by a professional physical trainer .
Claude's work arrangement for Dai Li showed his contempt . Obviously, Claude thought Dai Li could only do the simple work of an assistant .
Dai Li wasn't concerned by the slight . He already understood that respect could only be won by competence . In this world, as long as you were strong enough, you would be respected by your peers no matter what industry you were in .
I haven't used the aerobics for weight and fat loss in a long time . I have almost forgotten the movements . Dai Li looked at the name list of the players in his hand .
Three players needed to lose weight: midfielder Yunping Zheng, striker Feng Gao, and midfielder Jinshan Sun . They were seriously overweight, which had influenced their normal training . If they wanted to avoid influencing the normal training of the team, they had to reduce their weight by at least five kilograms .
Claude gave Dai Li one week to finish his work .
Helping the players lose five kilograms would not be difficult for Dai Li . Even if he didn't use the weight loss aerobics, Dai Li could accomplish the mission through his current training skills .
However, Dai Li couldn't find reason to not use the shortcut .

If I could only help them lose five kilograms within one week, my competence won't be cherished by them . As Dai Li thought of this, he smiled, then he said to the three players who needed to lose weight, "Let's do some simple warm-up exercises!"
The so-called warm-up exercises were, of course, the weight loss aerobics .
Now Dai Li wouldn't say, "Follow my lead and let's dance the weight-loss aerobics . " He had disguised the weight-loss aerobics into the warm-up exercises, and used it to help the players who needed to lose weight without their knowledge .

Three days passed in the blink of an eye .
Although the Korean coach Chowtai Kim was sitting in the farthest corner, his face was full a proud expression .
He was attending a meeting to form the training plan for the team .
The preparation period before the beginning of a new season was crucial for the promotion of the players' physical functions and the team's performance in the season, so it was also the busiest period for the coaches .
In order to better coordinate the different trainings, the physical trainers would discuss the training quantity and intensity, as well as the individual training arrangements for players with special requirements with the head coach, the assistant coaches, and members of the medical group . And the physical trainer would participate all of it .

Therefore, being able to participate in the training plan formulation gave Chowtai Kim a feeling that he was valuable, even if he had to sit in the farthest corner .
Moreover, though Haoxin Liu and Dai Li had been hired in with him, they were not allowed to attend this meeting . That gave Chowtai Kim the overjoyed feeling that he was superior to Haoxin Liu and Dai Li .
Although we joined the club at the same time, the gap has been opened in the first working day . I have acquired many tactics of the team in these three days . I don't have the right to speak now, but my situation is far better than the other two guys . I've heard that indigenous coach, whose name is Dai Li, is helping the players lose weight! As a physical trainer, he was assigned to do the low-level works which are for the drilling partners; he really is useless and pathetic!
Chowtai Kim was so complacent that he couldn't help raising the corners of his lips .
The Korean coaches are far more competent than you! You'll see, I will soon prove that I am qualified to be a member of Harman's team .
Chowtai Kim looked at all the European coaches in the meeting room . His heart was filled with the desire to perform well .
At that moment, Claude was introducing his work volubly, and he was talking about the weight control of the players .
"Yunping Zheng was a starting player last season . Feng Gao and Jinshan Sun are also important substitutes . However, during the off-season, they over-indulged themselves, and they are severely overweight . I think they should lose at least five kilograms . "

As Claude spoke, he turned around and looked at Harman . "I have arranged for Dai Li, who is our new physical trainer, to help them in lose weight . I gave Dai Li one week, and I hope he can help the three players lose a weight of five kilograms . "
"It is not an easy job to help someone lose five kilograms in only a week," Harman said .
"This Coach Li was recruited by the club . I believe he can accomplish the mission as a professional physical trainer . " Claude shrugged to imply he also didn't trust Dai Li . If Dai Li failed to accomplish the mission of weight loss for the three players, his failure could only be attributed to his incompetence .
All the foreign coaches in the meeting grinned with understanding . They had been working together for many years, so all of them could understand Claude's implication .
Indeed, the Asian coaches, especially the indigenous coaches, were too weak and untrustworthy for the liking of these European coaches .
At that moment, an assistant knocked at the door and entered the meeting room . He saw Claude talking volubly, so he chose to stand aside self-consciously .
Claude ended his report and sat back in his seat . The assistant walked to Claude and whispered to him, "Mr . Claude, that Coach Li who is new here wants to see you . "
"Tell him I'm not available today . I have a meeting to attend, so tell him to come tomorrow," Claude said .
The assistant nodded and continued to say, "Coach Li said if you don't have time, I could leave a message to you that he had accomplished the mission you assigned to him three days ago . "Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
