040 Yoga Challenge

"......" There was no sound echoing in his head, just silence, Lu Ke couldn't help but complain, "Hello, I'm sure I'm not playing a stand-alone game, right?" Will NPCs still go offline? ”

"No, it's not, the yoga you practice is the kind on earth." Xiao Qi's voice was still cold and warm, but now that he got used to it, Lu Ke could also hear a slight change in Xiao Qi's voice and tone, as if at this moment: helpless, speechless. If it was a real person, he should have started to roll his eyes angrily at this time, "No, you won't transform into a Super Saiyan; Finally, yoga is not directly linked to rugby, but it is directly linked to quarterbacks. ”

At this time, Xiao Qi's tone returned to normal, and he dutifully began to explain, "Yoga can exercise your body control, and in extreme situations, tap more physical potential; At the same time, you can exercise your muscle flexibility, the quarterback needs not the ability to rush, block, intercept, but more needs the ability to dodge, break through, and sway, so you should avoid bulky and strong muscle blocks, keep your body light, and increase your ability to resist hits. ”

"Finally, yoga can also tap into your five senses, increase your perception and control of rugby, wrist softness when passing, body coordination, and balance of limbs, which are all helpful for accurate passing." Xiao Qi finished all the introductions in one go, paused for a moment, and waited for Lu Ke's response, "Do you still have questions?" ”

Lu Ke was very sure that this last sentence was deliberately aimed at him, which made him laugh, "But, why now?" ”

"Because you weren't qualified enough." Just when Lu Ke just thought that Xiao Qi was already a little "human", he came with a fatal blow and mercilessly inserted a dagger into his chest, "Strictly speaking, you still haven't reached the standard now, but yoga is a process that accumulates day by day, and it takes at least three months of training from the beginning of training to the integration of muscles." ”

Trimester.

Lu Ke reacted immediately, his eyes lit up slightly, "Rookie training camp!" ”

For all players, the most convenient and fastest way to enter the league is always the rookie training camp, whether it is the draft or the undrafted rookie, the rookie training camp is a stage to show themselves, and it is also the best platform for major teams to judge and evaluate.

"So, how do I start training yoga?" This is the realm that Lu Ke didn't know at all, but then he reacted, "Video! ”

Each training task has a special video to guide Lu Ke to complete the system task meticulously. However, there have been months without adding new training tasks, and he has almost forgotten about the all-purpose system.

Calling up the video, what was presented in front of Lu Ke was a dazzling video page, and after a cursory browsing, there were a total of thirty videos.

Lu Ke's eyes widened, "Do all these actions every day?" Just by seeing the action of the first video, Lu Ke felt ridiculous, this seems to be a difficult posture, how did this be done? The remaining twenty-nine are even more incredible.

"No, it's just the first five moves." Under Xiao Qi's reminder, Lu Ke found that only the first five videos were bright, and the last twenty-five videos were dim, and they couldn't be clicked on for the time being.

Thirty minutes, five moves, while still difficult, at least didn't look so outrageous now. "Will there be more yoga moves in the future? Or are there only these thirty, and go on and on? Lu Ke remembered this again, but then shook his head, "Don't tell me, now the first five are enough for me to have a headache." ”

For the time being, Lu Ke put the headache of yoga behind him. After finishing his training, he began to fulfill his duties as a student.

As he joked before, there are two weeks left for the final exams, and this is not a joke, but a reality. After the exams, it's time for the Christmas holidays, and the exams are crucial for every student, even the athletes.

In the United States, there are strict rules, the official league is a professional game, and sports are work; The NCAA is not, all the participants are students, that's their primary identity, and sports are just a side hustle. The NCAA has a strict admission system and school merit requirements, and even if a player is talented on the court, if he does not meet the academic standards, he will not be allowed to play.

Historically, footballers, basketball players, baseball players, and countless other students have had to sit on the cold bench and retake the exam again and again because their test scores failed to qualify for the NCAA.

Dwyane-Wade, a famous player in the NBA, is a typical example, who spent his freshman season on the bench because of his failed test scores in college; Then he failed to pass the exam three times in a row, and he was so anxious that he cried bitterly, but he was still helpless.

The NCAA has always put the academic work of its players first, and it's simple to do so. After leaving school, only a few players can enter the professional league, and more players will go on to other careers and jobs after graduation, without cultural knowledge as a basis, their future will be very limited, and they will focus on their studies, which is responsible for the athletes.

This final exam, for a senior like Lu Ke, this is the last exam before they graduate. After that, they will devote themselves to the preparation of their graduation thesis. So, it's a test for their diploma that no one can take lightly, not even the star players who have proven themselves in the NCAA arena –

Rugby's professional leagues, rookie training camps require IQ measurements, and special psychological tests. Cultural performance in college is also one of the reference criteria, and although it has nothing to do with the player's athletic talent, it does affect the player's draft pick, and it is very likely that the rookie in the first round will fall to the second or even third round.

Take classes seriously, borrow notes, ask about the situation, and communicate with teaching assistants...... In the blink of an eye, another day of daily life came to an end.

However, today's daily life seems to have changed slightly compared to the usual – strictly speaking, a sea change. Corridors, classrooms, squares, everyone you meet on the road, everyone in the literal sense, will more or less greet Lu Ke, at least nod and smile, and even the professor will specifically name him before class, "Lu Ke, last night was good!" "In the lecture hall, all the students whistled and slapped their desks.

Last night's victory is affecting the entire campus in every way!

After finishing the class, Lu Ke did not rush home directly, but went to the sports store to buy yoga-related equipment. For athletes, they know better than anyone the importance of professional equipment, and if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, especially those who want to take their place in the professional league.

Carrying the brand-new exercise equipment, Lu Ke jogged all the way back to the apartment, and when he got home, just after the warm-up was over, he was ready to start exploring yoga after a little relaxation and adjustment.

First of all, he laid out the yoga mat in the hall, then summoned the system, clicked on the first video, he didn't want to train now - today's daily training has been completed, and the timing will start again tomorrow, so today's training is not counted, the reason why he started today is because the team did not have formal training today, and he came back early to rest; On the one hand, I want to familiarize myself with yoga movements and prepare for tomorrow's formal training.

Beginning to play the first video, Lu Ke carefully observed the action of the three-dimensional projection inside.

The action does not look complicated, even a little simple, the right foot is independent, then the left hand pulls the left foot and often rises, and finally the left foot and the right foot show the state of a horse, the right hand is stretched out, the body is extended, and the whole person is completely supported by the right leg. Then, the concise and straightforward movements are definitely difficult.

Judging from the picture alone, this is an impossible action, Lu Ke feels that his brain is a little insufficient, and he doesn't even understand how the muscle force and limb balance are maintained. However, after the video started playing, some text appeared next to it, and after reading it carefully, I realized that this is a detailed description of the action and some precautions.

This action is called standing and pulling the bow pose, which puts forward strict requirements for the muscles of the arms, hips, buttocks, calves, and back, and is also conducive to adjusting the flexibility and coordination of the body, promoting blood circulation, improving cardiopulmonary function, and more importantly, this is an action with super high requirements for attention, which is helpful for patience and decision-making.

After reading it, Lu Ke began to try to follow the video to make movements.

This action seems difficult enough, and it is even more difficult to execute. Lu Ke faintly felt that it seemed to be a little different from yoga in real life, but he had not trained formal yoga, so naturally he couldn't tell the difference. To be more precise, even the first action was extremely difficult to complete.

After each movement was supported, the center of gravity began to shake, and before he even had time to extend forward, the whole person began to shake violently, or the left hand did not have time to let go of the left leg, and the whole person staggered out; Otherwise, as soon as the left hand is loosened, the entire center of gravity sits backwards, and sits down directly; Otherwise, they will fly forward, and every muscle in their body will protest.

After trying many times in a row, Lu Ke finally stood firm, but the system still showed that his movements were not standard.

"How is that possible?" Lu Ke felt that he had reached the standard, "Could it be that you didn't maintain your posture for three seconds?" Or three minutes? Lu Ke studied it more carefully, but found that it was not because of time, but because of his own movements-because his center of gravity began to shake again, not to mention three minutes, three seconds were difficult.

Such a start seems to be a bit bad.
