Chapter 5: Training
Just standing, Yang Wenli let the children practice for half a month. This is different from the military training of college students in later generations, and even different from the military training in later generations, these children will follow him to practice for ten years, so each training content should be as long as possible, until the children are familiar to the bones, and have a conditioned reflex, before the next training.
In addition to the three-kilometer run that can't be thundered every morning, it is to practice the standing posture, and practice until the children feel vomited, and only in this way can the conditioned reflex be generated.
Of course, there is no standard ruler to measure the length of three kilometers, but Yang Wenli estimated it himself, anyway, he tried not to overwork the children. Later generations proved that overtraining can damage the body and lifespan, and Yang Wenli, as a modern person, certainly would not make these low-level mistakes.
After practicing standing posture for half a month, the little ones finally stood decently, and with a little bit of the momentum of the Boy Scouts, they could move on to the next training subject.
It's still very simple, that is, to take the right step, and the military training of later generations is the same. The purpose of military training is to cultivate soldiers, to strengthen the concept of discipline, and to train free and casual people into iron-blooded soldiers as pointed by their arms.
Real military training is far from beginning, and it is useless to practice these military training subjects in ancient times, and it can be said that it is useless except for the cultivation of discipline.
Walk in the right step, step in place, walk in unison, turn left and right, look to the right, turn backward...... and other modern military training subjects, Yang Wenli copied them.
This training is a year-long, during this time, in addition to military training, is to help the family plant rice and harvest when the farm is busy, and usually take care of the family's poultry and livestock, which is not too hard.
These little ones are in poor health and need so long to recuperate, so they can't train too hard.
……
Looking at a young man in front of him with a ruddy face, a cold expression, and standing upright like a pine, Yang Wenli's heart couldn't help but feel a strong sense of pride. This is all due to him, looking at these sturdy teenagers, he is confident that he will train them into elite soldiers who will win all battles.
"Before you know it, you've been practicing with me for a year. Today, you finally have a little bit of a soldier's appearance, yes, I just train you like a soldier.
Why? You who are in Spear Mountain Chong are practicing wholeheartedly, and you may not know that the mountain rain is about to come outside, and the wind is full of buildings.
There have been sporadic civil uprisings in various parts of the north, and the Houjin Tartars in Liaodong have become more and more powerful, repeatedly violating our Ming border passes, and the most powerful border soldiers of our Ming Dynasty have gradually been unable to defeat the strong Tartars even if they stand on the high city walls.
These are too far away from us, and even near us are full of bandits. I don't know how many mountain bandits there are in the Dabie Mountains not far from us, and I don't know how many river bandits on the mighty Yangtze River have killed people. If it weren't for the blocking of Spear Mountain, our Spear Mountain Chong would have been left long ago.
The purpose of my training as soldiers is to defend our homeland, and without it, how can we eat delicious three meals a day?
There is an essential difference between military training and martial arts training, and any martial arts master is absolutely no match for an ordinary veteran of a hundred battles on the battlefield.
Moving around the battlefield and dodging and dashing fancy tricks are all looking for death, because there is not an enemy in front of you, but a black oppression. You dodge the enemy in front of you, and you send it to the enemy on the side to kill. There is no time for you to perform, everything is a trick to see life and death.
In view of this situation, it is useless for us to practice more moves, as the old saying goes, one strength breaks ten skills, and the clouds are martial arts in the world, only fast is not broken, therefore, we actually only need to practice strength and speed. Practicing day and night, from quantitative change to qualitative change, so that when we fight the enemy in the future, we will be able to win every battle.
Today I will formally teach you the method of strengthening the body, that is, practicing strength, force is the foundation of everything, if the speed is less force, it is a showcase.
The first simple way I'm going to teach you is push-ups. ”
Yang Wenli explained in detail why they were trained in a queue during the year, and finally demonstrated the basic essentials of push-ups.
"The body and thighs need to be motionless, only the hands move up and down, the purpose of this exercise is to strengthen the arms and chest muscles,......"
Yang Wenli explained the essentials while demonstrating, and then he stood up and asked the teenagers to start practicing: "You can do one for me, push-ups are very effective for building strength, and after a month, I ask you to do at least 100." ”
The teenagers followed suit, Yang Wenli carried a whip made of bamboo to check whether their movements were up to standard, and when he saw a teenager whose movements were not qualified, he hit his ass with a bamboo piece and corrected their movements loudly.
In the days that followed, he taught them back-ups, sit-ups, stone locks, barbells, and standing stakes. These are easy ways to exercise, and there are gym equipment that can be used locally. For example, the barbell is made of two grinding discs, with a stick in the middle, placed on a shelf only ten centimeters above the ground, and the little ones can practice weightlifting while lying down.
Fitness workouts are mainly about building muscle strength in all parts of the body, which seems simple and can be easily done by anyone. But in fact, it is important to persevere, and it takes long-term practice to see the results.
In addition, high-intensity workouts require a lot of energy supplement, in modern times is to eat protein powder, in ancient times there was no such condition, you can only try to eat as much as possible meat, eggs, fish, tofu and other high-protein foods.
This is very difficult in the Ming Dynasty, even the court and big families do not have the kindness to give the sergeants and families such good food, the Yang family is almost the only one, so Yang Wenli's exercise method cannot be copied, it is an exclusive secret.
In the blink of an eye, it was the fourth year of the apocalypse, and the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party in the court had become a trend of fire and water, and the Eunuch Party was currently the dominant party, and those Donglin gentlemen were either killed by the Eunuch Party or hid like lost dogs.
Strictly speaking, Wei Zhongxian's attack on the Donglin Party represented by the big landlords and big businessmen was a good solution to the financial situation of the court, and he could be said to be a lonely fighter, fighting against the powerful bureaucrats and gentry, big landlords and big businessmen, and also achieved brilliant results, and revived the financial situation of the Ming Dynasty, which was already on the verge of bankruptcy.
However, the sky is not beautiful, the Emperor of the Apocalypse died young, he lost his backer, and later died a miserable death. and was portrayed by the literati as a heinous representative of the eunuch dictatorship.
However, these disputes are too far away from the Spear Mountain Chong, Yang Wenli is still immersed in training the family, three years have passed, Yang Wenli and the ten young families have grown into a strong man.
