Chapter 35 In the wrong direction, forward is backward
In the examination room, Yang Long sat on a hospital bed and wrapped an ice pack on his shoulder. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info This is really effective, and the ice compress has reduced his pain a lot.
"Dr. Kevin, how is he?" Booker was talking to the doctor who had already diagnosed Yang Long.
"It's not too much of a problem, it's just that I have a strain on my right shoulder muscle and I may need to rest for a while." Dr. Kevin lifted the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and wrote a pen on a medical record.
"I can't rest!" Hearing Dr. Kevin say to let himself rest, Yang Long shouted angrily. How can I rest not long after I arrived at the team? Yang Long hasn't proven himself yet, he's still a substitute, how can he rest!
"Yang Long, right? Rest or not, I have the final say, do you know what will happen if you don't recuperate?! ”
"What will happen?" Hearing Dr. Kevin's tough tone, Yang Long calmed down a little, he was too anxious to prove himself, and his tone was a little out of control.
"Your shoulder muscles may tear, and then you will have to have surgery."
"No, you can't!" There is an old Chinese saying that it takes 100 days to break the muscles and bones, if you have an operation, and it is because of a muscle tear, then Yang Long's recovery time will only be longer, and a little carelessness will leave an old disease, perhaps because of this, Yang Long's entire basketball road will be overshadowed by this. "And how long will it take for me to recuperate?"
Fortunately, at present, Yang Long is only suffering from a shoulder muscle strain.
"Now you're not in serious condition, you'll probably need to recuperate for 2-4 weeks. Here's the ointment I gave you, I'll pick it up at the pharmacy when I'm gone. ”
"Thank you, Dr. Kevin. How can I get my recovery time to two weeks? "Coach Kevin handed me a note, on which were the names of the two medicines, although I don't know the specific effect, but Yang Long guessed that it should be something similar to bone-setting wine.
"I can't guarantee it, the recovery time varies from person to person and depends on your own quality. Try not to put pressure on your right shoulder these days, or it will make your recovery time longer. ”
"Got it." Not being able to put force on his right shoulder means that Yang Long can't dribble, can't pitch, and can't do upper body strength training. Thinking that this time would take at least two weeks, Yang Long couldn't help but become depressed. It's October now, and it's getting closer and closer to November 19, the first official game of the season for the Duke Blue Devils, and there really isn't much time left for Yang Long.
When he went to the pharmacy, Yang Long got the medicine prescribed to him by Dr. Kevin, one was an internal medicine and the other was a spray, Yang Long prayed secretly, I hope that these two medicines will work!
"Yang, I see that you work very hard every time the team trains, do you usually train yourself?" The diagnosis didn't take much time, and on the way back to the basketball gym, Booker, who is the team's physical trainer, asked.
"yes, it will." Yang Long nodded, recalling the scene of his own training before he even came to the United States these days. Torture, pain, transcendence, progress, it can be said that this is the process of Yang Long's training. Yang Long glanced at his right shoulder in frustration, and didn't know why God had to play this joke with him, he trained so hard, but a normal dunk caused his muscles to strain. Thinking of this, Yang Long began to regret it again, regretting why he chose to dunk at that time, instead of an honest layup.
"You're a hard worker, but maybe you don't have to." As a physical trainer, Booker is not tall in the team, only about 185 cm, but he has an enviable figure like a gymnast. Such a figure is also his signature, such a good figure is undoubtedly telling his guests, look, my figure is okay? I can train you like that, too!
"What do you mean?" Yang Long couldn't understand what Booker called maybe I don't have to be like that? Is it wrong to train hard yourself?
"Why do you think you strained your muscles this time?" Booker did not directly answer Yang Long's question, but asked Yang Long a question.
"Because of that dunk?" Yang Long's own tone was a little skeptical, because I had done the same dunk many times, and there was nothing unusual about the previous one.
"Do you think it's because of that dunk? No, no, it's because your shoulder muscles aren't strong enough. ”
"But I do exercise with dumbbells every day?" The method he learned in Jordan's training camp in high school Yang Long has never forgotten and has been sticking to it.
"Hey, hey, there's a lot of knowledge here. I heard Coach K say that you always want to gain muscle and gain weight, right? ”
"Yes, but I've been training hard and I've lost a little bit of weight." Yang Long also has some doubts about this, he does a lot of training every day, but his weight does not rise but falls, and he does not feel obvious muscle growth.
"The shoulder muscles are divided into three bundles, front, middle and back, and if any one of them is not adequately exercised, it can lead to an imbalance of loads, which means that strains may occur. In addition, muscle building and training are not necessarily directly proportional. Muscle gain is actually a process of tearing and repairing, which usually requires some intense exercise to complete, after which you need to rest well and take in adequate nutrients. You've been failing to gain weight, most likely because some of your training programs are hindering the process of muscle growth. ”
"I see." Yang Long was thoughtful, it is true that he has worked very hard in training, but the training method has always been carried out in accordance with some of the means he found in the information, Booker's professional explanations have given Yang Long a new understanding of training, no wonder he is the team's physical trainer.
"You know, the path of training, the wrong direction, forward may be backward. If you have any problems with training in the future, you can find me. ”
"I see, Coach Booker, thank you!"
If you try to move in the wrong direction, you will go further and further in the right direction.
Although the injury this time is not serious, it still sounded a wake-up call for Yang Long. With a body trainer like Booker by his side, he must take advantage of it!
