"The head coach has been learning fighting with Coach Zhang since he was a child, and he is Coach Zhang's most proud disciple."

"As for our head coach, you must know him, right?"

"Yes, his name is loud." Tang Long said.

Tang Long was thrilled to think that he was about to become a student under Jin Tianya and get up close and personal with this fighting superstar who could only be seen on TV and the Internet.

"As long as you really want to learn martial arts and keep going, you'll know you've come to the right place after three months."

"Okay, I've decided."

"Welcome to become a member of the Pengqiang Fight Club. It's good to pay the fee to the little sister at the front desk, her name is Jiang Cuiyu, just call her Cuicui. ”

Tang Long walked out of the reception room and came to the front desk to ask Cuicui, can I swipe my card for registration and payment?

Cuicui looked at him with a smile and told him he could.

He took out his bank card and student ID card from his pocket and handed them to Satsuki. He clearly remembered the five numbers in the bank card - 13,000, of which 6,000 yuan was earned by him by delivering beer, and 7,000 yuan was the New Year's money he had saved over the years. Since he started working in a beer company, he has never reached out to Tang Qiang and Jin Yuhua to ask for living expenses. He told Cuicui that he was a college student, and that he would pay half a year's tuition first, and the rest of the tuition would be paid half a year later.

"Coach Liu said that there is a 20% discount for signing up now, right?"

"Yes, there will be a 20% discount during the event."

"Do you need to buy fist gloves, braces, shin guards, hand wraps? These are all tools that will be used during training. There are also training uniforms from Pengqiang Fight Club, and you can also buy one or two sets. ”

"Okay." Tang Long nodded.

Cuicui took him to the warehouse, there were many tall cabinets in the warehouse, containing various brands of training equipment, Cuicui first used the key to open the cabinet with fist gloves, and in the cabinet were Venum, Fairtex, Hayabusa, Everlast, Csk and other brands of boxing gloves, different colors, different sizes, Tang Long's eyes were dazzled.

Cuicui told him that except for Csk, which is a domestic brand, the others are foreign brands, Venum and Hayabusa are French brands, Fairtex is a Thai brand, and Everlast is an American brand, he looked at the boxing gloves of foreign brands worn by those fighting stars on TV, and was very envious, but they were really a bit expensive for him, and after hesitating for a while, he still chose a pair of 12oz red boxing gloves of the domestic CSK brand for 380 yuan, a pair of red Csk leggings, A pair of five-meter-long black cotton bandages, a white braces, and a red and black protective gear bag that can be loaded with boxing gloves, leg guards, and clothing, and finally, he bought two sets of Pengqiang fighting clothing, one set of 400 yuan, two sets of 800 yuan, and calculated that in addition to the tuition fee, he spent more than 2,000 yuan.

At this time, Kari only has more than 4,000 yuan left, and even if he cuts back on food and clothing, it is only enough for him to live for more than four months.

He came to the locker room, changed into clothes, and came to the training hall with gloves, bandages, braces, and leg guards, where rapper GAI sang "The Great Wall".

He went to the locker room with his clothes and training equipment, closed the door and changed into a brand new training uniform, then took his gloves, leg guards, and bandages to the No. 2 training area, sat on a wooden bench under the pillar, and wrapped up the bandages. But he forgot how Coach Liu taught him yesterday, the bandage was loosely wrapped and ugly, so he had no choice but to untie it again.

"I'll help you, young man!" Tang Long looked up and saw that it was Coach Zhang.

"Okay, thank you, uncle—no, thank you, Coach Zhang."

Coach Zhang smiled and said, "You're welcome." ”

"The bandage protects the metacarpophalangeal joints, so be sure to wrap it a little tighter here." Coach Zhang pulled the bandage and slowly wrapped it around his hand to show him.

After Coach Zhang helped him wrap the bandage, he put on his shoes, walked to the treadmill and started running. The boxers of the professional team and the children's boxers of the amateur team came to the training hall one after another, there were more than 20 boxers of the professional team and more than 30 boxers of the children's team, and the training hall instantly became lively.

At 8:50 a.m., the trainees gathered in two training areas, and Tang Long saw in the crowd Wang Gang, who won the fight by KO at the Trainguessing Bar that night, wearing a pair of blue VENUM gloves, his hair was cut short, and a blue headband was put on his head, looking very energetic. Coach Liu and two other coaches are responsible for training the junior fighters in the No. 2 training area, and Coach Zhang and Coach Ma Long are responsible for training the fighters of the professional team in the No. 2 training area.

After the two zone coaches began to lead the fighters through stretching and warm-up exercises, the fighters of the professional team were divided into two groups, the fighters of the gold and silver teams fought each other and practiced defensive counterattacks, and the fighters of the bronze team practiced combination punches under the guidance of the Philippine boxing coach.

Coach Zhang came to Tang Long and still instructed him to practice straight punches before and after. He patiently helped him correct his irregular movements, serious and focused, completely different from the funny and casual uncle yesterday.

Bell crotch ...... The bell rang, everyone stopped, and a minute's break followed.

When Tang Long crossed his waist and stood in front of the mirror in a daze, Wang Gang, who was soaked and wearing black gloves, walked over.

"Good morning." Wang Gang said, his chest was lying together.

"Good morning." Tang Long said.

"Leg guards and braces are not needed for the time being, you can put them in the cabinet, wrap them in bandages, and put on fist gloves."

"Okay."

After putting away the training equipment, Tang Long opened the bandage rolled into a ball, pinched his head, threw the other parts on the ground, and wrapped the bandage according to the method taught by Coach Liu last night, but it was loosely wrapped, Wang Gang came over, dissolved the bandage he had wrapped, and then helped him to wrap it strongly, and then helped him put on the new red gloves.

Everyone has started a new round of training, and Coach Liu came over with the young coach who was chatting with the children in the No. 2 training hall in the morning.

"Come on!" Coach Liu patted Tang Long on the shoulder, looked at him and said.

"A must." Tang Long nodded.

"Today, Coach Hu is responsible for teaching you straight punches and laying a solid foundation." Coach Liu pointed to the coach next to him and said.

He is about 1.76 meters, about 65 kilograms, with a short flat head and small eyes with single eyelids. A red Venum bandage is wrapped around his hands.

Coach Hu took Tang Long to the lower left corner of the training hall, first demonstrated the punching action of the front and back straight punches a few times in slow motion, and then told him the essentials of punching.

Before punching, you should bow your head slightly, put your front fist (left fist) in front of your eyebrows, put your back fist (right hand fist) against your eyebrow bone and cheekbones, put your left leg in front, your right leg in the back, keep a distance between your legs and your legs, keep a distance of one step, bend your legs slightly, and put yourself in a fighting pose. When punching, turn the waist and shoulders, relax the arms, not too stiff, half-clenched fists, and wait until the arms are about to be straightened and the fists are about to touch the target of the attack, before bursting out of strength, the fist at the moment of attacking the target, to rotate inward, the back of the hand to the sky, the palm to the ground, to form a straight line to attack, and then quickly retract in a straight line, the front fist is retracted and attached to the eyebrow bone and cheekbone, protect the face and jaw, and after doing a good job of defense, then hit the back punch in a straight line. When throwing a front punch, the front foot (left foot) should be slightly rotated forward with the rotation of the waist and shoulders, and the back foot (right foot) should be pushed the ground. When punching back, you should turn your shoulders and waist to turn your hips, bend your knees, and kick the toes of your right foot to start exerting force. Regardless of whether you throw a front punch or a straight punch, the center of gravity of the body should be pressed between the two legs.

After Coach Hu finished speaking, he demonstrated in slow motion a few times, and let Tang Long practice in front of the mirror with one punch.

"Turn your waist, turn your waist, yes, it's good, come on!" When Tang Long threw punches, Coach Hu constantly corrected his mistakes and also constantly encouraged Tang Long.

Tang Long's heart warmed, he didn't know how long he hadn't been encouraged. Tang Qiang never encouraged him, and some only preached, criticized and scolded. Jin Yuhua was very gentle with him, but never praised him or encouraged him. He knows that this is not a sign that his parents do not love him, because strict discipline is also a kind of love. But he also longs to be like other children, to receive encouragement, praise and affirmation from his parents.

At half past eleven, everyone stopped training, packed up their training equipment, and began to go to the shower room to shower. The music in the training hall also stopped, the mats on the ground were sprinkled with clumps of sweat, and the training hall that was still lively and noisy just now suddenly became empty and cold.

He took off his gloves, untied his bandages, and after putting them in the cupboard, he found a pair of slippers in the shoe cabinet and walked slowly to the locker room. In the locker room, there was a tall locker and a long, low wooden shoe rack, and two boxers who had just taken a shower sat on the shoe cabinet laughing and chatting, they were shirtless, showing off their muscles. One has long hair with a small braid tied at the back of his head, and the other has a short moxican haircut with dyed blonde hair. Looks cool. Inside the long shoe cabinet were many slippers and sneakers, some of which were stuffed with socks and emitted a pungent smell of sweat. The shoe cabinet is stacked with students' bags and clothes.

After Tang Long came in, they turned their heads and smiled at him in a friendly way, and nodded. He smiled and nodded to them.
