Chapter 12 [Fitness with Death]

Guo Xu's figure is well-proportioned, his muscles are not very strong, and his natural strength is insufficient, if he is 10CM taller, it is easier to be a model than a basketball player. He always plays with a light feeling, and with his light weight, he can easily grab the basket with both hands, but he can't dunk.

His stamina is also average, and he never exercises to grow taller, except for the team's normal training classes.

Jason Richardson doesn't practice either, his height and strength come from genetics. He went to school late, born on January 20, 81, nearly a year older than Guo Xu, who was born on November 24, and is only 19 this year. But looking at physical fitness, Richardson can beat 90 percent of the players in the NBA.

It's a miracle that someone like Richardson can't play in the NBA. Because of this, he is not a hard worker, and inertia restricts his ceiling. For this genius friend, Guo Xu is really envious, jealous and hateful.

When signing the order, Guo Xu impressed the waiter again, he generously paid 20% of the maximum amount of tips, and left the hotel with the blessing of the waiter.

In the afternoon, the two visited local attractions and talked about training plans, Guo Xu gave himself a vacation, and officially started training tomorrow.

He still didn't dream that night, as soon as he closed his eyes and opened his eyes, the fifth April Fool's Day, six o'clock sharp. He took out a ballpoint pen and notepad, first recorded the number of days in the cycle, and then wrote down the plan he had made yesterday.

As usual, he called Richardson to breakfast, went to training together, and behaved mediocre in the group confrontation.

After having dinner with his teammates, Guo Xu didn't go out with everyone, nor did he invite Richardson to talk about the cycle in the two-person world, and went to the fitness center "Life Time Fitness" in the city alone.

Exercise can't be messed around, and someone will guide you so that your body shape will not be ruined. In his previous life, Guo Xu also went to the gym, and often saw the kind of deformed people with ultra-wide shoulders, thick and short arms, and almost no neck bragging about how many kilograms they could bench press. What about that body size, no matter how strong it is? There are no sports other than weightlifting.

Guo Xu chose a chain gym, which is high-end, fully functional, and has a huge space for the venue. In addition to a full set of sports and fitness equipment, there is also a food court, a beauty salon, a children's club, indoor and outdoor swimming pools and courts, etc., and the equipment environment is very good. Because of the large space requirements, it is not opened in the center of the city where every inch of land is valuable, and it is not far from the small hotel where the Michigan State University stays.

As a human being in two lives, Guo Xu has never entered such a high-level fitness club, but when he thought that he was not a mortal and had superpowers, he was confident, carrying a backpack and striding towards the front desk.

A confident person with an extraordinary bearing, even if Guo Xu is dressed ordinary, no one will despise him.

The female employee greeted her and asked, "Good afternoon, sir, is there anything I can do for you?" ”

Guo Xu identified himself: "I am a student of the Michigan State University basketball team, I came here to play the NCAA Final Four, I have a holiday this afternoon, I want to do some sports, can you provide any short-term services?" ”

The female employee smiled, "Of course, we will do a fitness program for customers based on their interests, including a one-off experience. We arrange a professional personal fitness trainer for each client. Because everyone's situation is different, a personal trainer will help you find the right exercise equipment and how to use it to help you achieve your fitness goals. ”

Guo Xu nodded: "Sounds good, how do you charge?" ”

The female employee replied: "We have a membership system here, and if you don't apply for membership, you will be charged $50 for a single membership, so I suggest that you spend $100 to join the club, and the membership can also be used in chain stores in other cities." ”

Guo Xu made a decision without thinking about it. "I'll go back to Michigan on the 4th, and there is no branch of yours there, so I won't apply for membership today, and I'll charge for a single time."

A single project is suitable for Guo Xu, as long as he continues the time loop, tomorrow is April Fool's Day, the information form will be filled in vain, and it will return to the state before the payment, so he will not do useless work.

After paying $50, Guo Xu entered the gym, and a middle-aged white coach with Sichuan lines between his eyebrows and looking bitter and hateful followed the service.

Even if he was nominally here to experience, the fitness coach also explained in detail the precautions, as many as a dozen, including the diet before the gym, to eat less fried and meat foods, not to smoke and drink, to warm up, to practice for a period of time must be supplemented with sports drinks and water, after the exercise to carry out a full-body muscle stretch, to reduce the next day's delayed muscle pain and so on.

He followed the coach to the physical testing room, and the side instrument used the electrical impedance of the body organs to measure various components in his body, muscle content, fat content and other indicators. Finally, a data is printed out with a comprehensive score, which is a score of the body's metabolism. Guo Xu's fat content of 10% is not bad, which can reach the average level of NBA professional players, with a rating of 80, and the coach customized a fitness plan for him.

There's nothing to be proud of, most of the people who come here to work out are ordinary people, and there are no sports stars. 80 points means that Guo Xu is healthy, strong and energetic in terms of the physical level of ordinary people, and his weight of 73 kilograms is low in the NBA, and he will suffer from the confrontation.

Guo Xu practiced very hard, and he didn't finish himself until he was exhausted. He did everything the coach had arranged, worked the muscles in all parts of the body, and spent three hours in the fitness area.

Gu Xu still had some strength to spare, so he decided to practice more, but the coach didn't stop him, and said with a smile: "Although an excessive exercise may increase strength, it is very harmful to the body." If you don't practice, your whole body may ache tomorrow and you won't be able to lift your arms. ”

The coach's tone was a little disdainful, and he guessed that Guo Xu did his best because he was distressed about the money for an experience.

"I'm going to do a test and I have to practice like this. If I'm sore tomorrow, I'm sure I won't do it again. Guo Xu said, and went to practice "sitting rowing" again.

"Aren't you going to play the NCAA semifinals tomorrow? How do you play ball like this? The coach asked curiously.

"The semi-finals are not a thing...... If you don't make progress in three days, it's a big deal...... Then I'd consider quitting basketball and doing something else. Guo Xu said while exercising.

He wanted to see what he would be like when he woke up from exhaustion. The coach couldn't understand his thoughts, and he didn't plan to explain that the next time the two met, they would still be strangers.

He exercised until it was dark before Guo Xu left by car, and the taste was like a 40-degree fever, shortness of breath, and weakness.

He treated himself to a lobster dinner at a fancy restaurant, and only hobbled back to his hotel room at half-past nine, where Jason Richardson had already sent him several text messages.

"Guo, where have you been? Got lost after going out on your own? ”

"It's just going to work, I'm going to get stronger." Guo Xu didn't say anything about going to the gym, he took off his clothes and leaned back on the bed, not wanting to move.

Richardson looked at him listlessly and said, "You won't practice all afternoon, will you?" Will you be able to recover tomorrow? ”

"Maybe."

"Tomorrow is mainly to adapt to the venue, there should be no group confrontation, the amount of training is not large, you can rest well, just have the strength at night." Richardson laughed.

"yes."

"......" Richardson felt that Guo Xu had overpracticed, and he didn't bother to say anything, and he would definitely not be able to play well tomorrow.

The two chatted for a few words and turned off the lights to sleep, Guo Xu quickly snored, he was tired.
