Da Liu was in a bad mood .

In the day training, Da Liu practiced with Feng Zhu . Although Feng Zhu gave him five points in every game, Da Liu still didn't win after several games .

Da Liu knew that he was not as excellent as Feng Zhu, but he didn't expect that the gap between them was so huge .

As an athlete, Da Liu naturally knew that effort and achievement were inseparable . Everyone knew that Feng Zhu trained overtime every day, so everyone expected him to achieve good results .

Da Liu wanted to make progress as well . He decided to learn from Feng Zhu, and he hoped Feng Zhu could teach him something after training .

Therefore, after supper, Da Liu took a bath, put on clean sportswear, and came to the training room .

The light is on . Definitely someone is in it . It must be Feng Zhu training inside . Da Liu stretched up his neck and looked into the room .

However, Da Liu was surprised to see Dai Li and Feng Zhu lying on the ground and slowly making strange motions .

What are they doing? Da Liu looked at them in surprising, with his eyes wide open .

It seems they are doing yoga! Those two are doing yoga! Two men are practicing yoga! Da Liu concluded, after watching for a while .

The two men were doing yoga on the floor . They seemed to be so uncoordinated!

Standing outside the door for several minutes, he didn't enter .

Suddenly, someone behind patted Da Liu on the shoulder .

"Da Liu, what are you looking at?" Da Liu was familiar with the voice . It was just his teammate Xiaolong Gao .

"Hiss, keep quiet!" Da Liu gestured with a finger across his lips, and then pointed Dai Li and Feng Zhu inside .

"Coach Li and Feng Zhu! They are doing . . . yoga! Am I seeing it wrong? They are doing yoga, right?" Xiaolong Gao was in great shock .

"It's yoga . " Da Liu nodded .

"Why do they practice yoga? Two men!" Xiaolong Gao asked .

"How should I know?" Da Liu shook his head .

They both knew that yoga had nearly zero effect on high-level professional players . Therefore, they didn't understand why Dai Li and Feng Zhu practiced yoga .

Minutes later, another three athletes came over to practice . But when they saw Dai Li and Feng Zhu in the training room, they all stopped before the door simultaneously, looking at them in surprise .

It was weird enough for high-level professional athletes to take yoga as training, not to mention two men doing this .

A dozen minutes later, Dai Li and Feng Zhu ended their yoga only to find five people standing at the door already .

"Da Liu? Xiaolong Gao? Are you here for overtime training? Why don't you come in?" Feng Zhu asked .

"We . . . " Looking at each other, Da Liu and Xiaolong Gao didn't what to say for a while .

But Feng Zhu started to explain it anyway . "Coach Li is leading me in doing yoga! It can improve body flexibility . Will you have a try?"

"It's yoga indeed!" They were standing at the door and looking at each other with shocked expressions once again .

"Da Liu, even if yoga could improve the flexibility of your body, it should not be as effective as regular training for professional athletes, right?" someone asked in a low voice .

"It should be so . " Da Liu nodded slightly .

"Why is Feng Zhu still doing yoga? Isn't that a waste of time?" that person asked again .

"It works more or less," Da Liu went on not-so-confidently . "Coach Li is a high-level coach . I don't think he can teach something useless . His teaching must be effective . "

"Let's try it too!" a young guy behind said eagerly .

This proposal attracted many people's interest . After all, Feng Zhu was a good example .

As the strongest player on the ping pong team of Hanbei Province, Feng Zhu definitely could be a representative . His willingness to practice yoga worked like an invisible advertis.e.m.e.nt .

"I'll have a try . " Da Liu nodded .

"You go and try it . I'll not . Yoga is for common people . There exists no effect on us athletes at all . " Xiaolong Gao shook his head .

"I think so . We are professional athletes . There are so many targeted training projects! We needn't yoga at all!" another person said, agreeing with Xiaolong Gao .

. . .

Da Liu and other two athletes joined the yoga training .

After a week of training, Dai Li's yoga actions were much more skillful, and he was not like a beginner anymore . At least, Da Liu didn't doubt it through his actions .

However, Da Liu was still skeptical about the effect of yoga . As a professional athlete, he didn't think yoga was effective at all . Had it not been for Feng Zhu's leading role, Da Liu would not have tried yoga .

The next morning, Da Liu encountered the same situation with Feng Zhu .

"Da Liu, if it hurts, it would be better to just call it out . You don't need to put up with it," the coach said, as his stretching action loosened slightly .

"Doesn't hurt . Just a little sore at the beginning," Da Liu answered .

"Just a little sore?" the coach asked, surprised . "Ordinarily, if you were stretched this far, you would have streamed out in pain . Now I will tear harder . "

Da Liu became aware of the change when the coach reminded him .

It can't be the yoga worked! Da Liu thought incredulously .

. . .

When Feng Zhu entered the training room, he found the three players who joined the training last night already waiting there . Apparently, they had tasted the benefits of yoga .

"Da Liu, you came earlier than me!" Feng Zhu said .

"Well . . . " Da Liu felt embarra.s.sed and asked, "When will Coach Li come?"

"Maybe in 20 minutes," Feng Zhu said . He got close to Da Liu and asked, "Yoga worked, right?"

Da Liu nodded seriously, "If I hadn't experienced it myself, I wouldn't believe yoga could have such an effect on professional athletes . "

"Coach Li said his yoga was specially designed for athletes . Other people's yoga may not be so effective! You are just beginning to practice now . You can feel how great Coach Li is when you train longer," Feng Zhu said confidently .

. . .

Three days later .

"Bang!"

Da Liu managed to score one point by an extreme retrieve .

"Nice!" Xiaolong Gao, his opponent, complimented him involuntarily .

"Da Liu, you are so vigorous these days . These two days, we have practiced for dozens of games and I lost them all," Xiaolong Gao said, a little unsatisfied .

"Who told you not to do yoga!" Da Liu pursed his lips .

"Yoga? You wouldn't tell me that you became so vigorous because you practiced yoga, right?" Xiaolong Gao said jokingly .

However, Da Liu didn't mean to joke and he nodded seriously . "Of course it's because of yoga! I wouldn't practice it every day if it didn't work . Since I began practicing yoga, my skills have been more coordinated than before . I can achieve hard skills without distorting them . "

Xiaolong Gao still didn't believe him . In his subconsciousness, he still felt that yoga with such little exercise had no effect on professional athletes at all .

Although Xiaolong Gao didn't believe in yoga, others did .

Some athletes chose to join the training when they found out that Feng Zhu, Da Liu, and other athletes trained yoga every night . When they felt the effects of yoga on their flexibility and vigor, they came to the training and did yoga every day .

After all, humans are social animals with group psychology . Especially under the domestic system, professional athletes were always in groups, such as in sports schools when they were young and in sports teams when they grew up . Even a person with unique individuality would be ironed out and form to the habits of the community .

It was like in a university dormitory . If three of four people in a dormitory were playing one type of game, the last one would definitely play it soon . Similarly, if three of them went out to play basketball on weekends, the last one would serve as a stopgap even if he didn't play well .

Therefore, others chose to join the yoga training when more and more people joined it . Even Xiaolong Gao, who didn't believe in the effects of yoga, also joined the training at last .

When they felt the effects, they would never quit . Dai Li's yoga cla.s.s was gradually expanding .

. . .

"Coach Li!"

"Coach Li, there you are!"

"Coach Li, when will we start straining?"

As soon as Dai Li entered the training room, he was surrounded by his students immediately .

Nowadays, Dai Li's yoga cla.s.s had attracted all the athletes on the ping pong team . Every night, dozens of athletes did yoga following Dai Li . It was spectacular . Someone walking by might think it was a yoga cla.s.s .

Dai Li felt a sense of achievement when he saw so many athletes already waiting for him in the training room .

As a coach, it was obviously a sign of success to be admired by athletes . Additionally, the entire team had been attracted here, which made him feel complacent .

As a coach, I should be satisfied with what I have achieved! Dai Li smiled involuntarily . However, he always felt something was missing .

Yes, the results . It would be perfect if we could achieve a champions.h.i.+p! Looking at these athletes in front of him longingly, he knew that this goal was not far away, because the National Table Tennis Champions.h.i.+p was coming soon!
