Chapter 606: Training Hasn't Started Yet (Part 1)

Kobe Bryant didn't expect that Min Congda, a general manager, would follow Grover to basketball training early in the morning.

Is he crazy? What is Grover's training intensity that he doesn't know? And you have to practice with yourself.

Basketball is a collective sport, Kobe Bryant can't beat the Clippers in the Lakers, so there's no way, I'm afraid that the boxing is less strong, and I really can't beat it.

But if you have to pull it out one-on-one, the 34-year-old Kobe Bryant is still not afraid of any player in the league, including a tank-type forward like James.

What is he Min Congda? A basketball layman, 175 tall, has never played basketball, and relies on his brain and mouth to cross the league.

Today, I even thought about going to the court to practice and have fun, and I saw that he was going to the toilet with a lantern and looking for death.

Bryant got out of the car and went into the training center, which he had chartered this morning, and Grover and his team were making various preparations for training.

Kobe Bryant changed into his training clothes, bandaged out, and asked, "What about Smart?" Where's Smart? I'll warm him up. ”

At this time, Min Congda came out of another locker room wearing the Clippers' training uniform, which was obviously a little too wide, like a robe.

Min Congda is the same age as Kobe Bryant this year, 34 years old, because he insists on exercising, so he is quite in shape, he does not have a small belly, his legs are quite strong, and his arms are very strong.

But this is relative to ordinary people, compared with a basketball god like Kobe, he is a little chicken, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, Kobe can get him in minutes.

"Smart! I don't understand, are you living a bad life? Why do you want to come to Grover to find abuse? Do you play basketball? Kobe joked unceremoniously.

Min Congda lifted his pants, this training jersey is still from Curry, it has been changed slightly, it is still a little big, and next time the team will have to order training clothes for him.

"I'm having a good life, and I just want to try out what level I can achieve after a serious basketball training. Seriously, I watch NBA-level training every day, and I feel like you people are just like that, blowing all day long. Isn't it just playing basketball, practice makes perfect, what's the big deal, and what is the essential difference between picking cotton? ”

Min Congda has always spoken wildly, Kobe sneered, and said, "There is no difference, then let's have a simple contest and warm up." ”

Min Congda shook his head and said, "I'm just an amateur, and I'm not a stupid fork, how can I beat you?" You too, what good do you do if you win me one-on-one? If I get one, I'm going to go out and brag that I've got one on Kobe's head. You tortured me to death, what's the big deal about it? ”

Kobe Bryant warmed up with the ball while shaking his finger at Min Congda and said, "It's impossible for you to score any goals on my head, not one." As for me abusing you, as a Laker... As your opponent, this is what I should do. ”

Kobe Bryant wanted to say that he was a Lakers player, but on second thought, he was no longer a Nets player.

But no matter what Kobe Bryant says, Min Congda just doesn't take the bait, he is not stupid, and Kobe Bryant goes head-to-head, that's not self-inflicted humiliation!

He paid to train with Grover, not to find abuse, but to experience what it was like to train the same as Kobe.

Min Congda asked several players within the Clippers, Harden, Randolph, and Curry, who they thought were the hardest working in the NBA.

They all agree that it is Kobe, and Kobe is a real training maniac.

Seriously, the Clippers have quite a few training freaks.

Curry, Butler, Leonard and other young people are all very motivated and hard working in training.

But they all said that Kobe Bryant trained harder, which means that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world.

It just so happened that Min Congda still had a lot of questions about Kobe, so through Jerry West's relationship, he found Grover and asked him to give him a private lesson with Kobe.

Grover didn't agree at first, but Min Congda gave too much, so Grover called and asked Kobe tentatively, but he didn't expect Kobe to accept it happily.

Since Min Congda did not accept Kobe's heads-up, Kobe decided to let Min Congda experience what devil training is.

Before training begins, Kobe Bryant first has to stretch and massage.

After completing a few simple shots and running a few steps, the specialized physical therapist began to stretch and massage Bryant's whole body.

This process is quite long, it takes an hour or two to ensure that every muscle and ligament in Kobe's body is fully mobilized.

This not only makes it easy for him to recur those injuries he has suffered, but also keeps him from adding new injuries to the following high-intensity exercises.

Min Congda didn't have such troubles, so he sat aside and watched Kobe stretch and receive physiotherapy, and said, "Kobe, are you here to train, or are you here to be a horse killer?" ”

Bryant said: "Only people like you, who never play basketball and don't have a little injury on your body, can leisurely and do nothing to prepare." But I advise you to stretch well, otherwise I'm afraid you'll get injured in five minutes when you train. ”

Min Congda thought that what Kobe Bryant said made sense, he was not young, although he could also exercise, but the intensity was relatively low.

Don't really practice for five minutes and then get a glorious strain and rest for two months, it would be too embarrassing.

Under Grover's guidance, Min Congda performed some simple but effective stretches to open the muscles and ligaments throughout his body.

The process looks comfortable, but it's actually quite tiring, and after more than an hour of stretching, it's a bit out of breath.

"Damn, I'm quite tired, I thought it was a horse killing a chicken..."

The older a player is, the longer they need to stretch.

Kobe Bryant has to stretch for an hour or two, and when he's older and has more injuries, he might have to stretch for two or three hours.

And the young players, 19 or 20 years old, can simply do some warm-up and then devote themselves to high-intensity training and games.

After stretching, Bryant began his physical exercises, running at a constant pace for 6 minutes on the treadmill.

This Min Congda can keep up, he usually works out at the Clippers Training Center, and his physical fitness is still okay.

After running at a constant pace, Bryant ran for another 6 minutes to further engorge the muscles in his legs so that he could adapt to the next exercise.

This 6-minute speed change, but it will cost Min Congda's life, 12 minutes of running, don't look at it for 12 minutes, when Chinese football conducted player physical testing, one of the items was 12 minutes of running, so how many professional football players changed their colors.

At the beginning, some well-known domestic football players were stopped by the 12-minute running line, and those who passed through were also extremely painful, and even left a psychological shadow.

You can say that Chinese football players are dish, but they are also professional athletes, not to mention that the running distance of football is longer than basketball.

Kobe Bryant started with a 12-minute run, even if it was a treadmill, with his pace, plus the speed change, the average person couldn't bear it at all.

Min Congda finished running at a different speed in 6 minutes, and collapsed directly to the ground, unable to get up.

Grover lifted him to the side and told him to walk around the pitch without moving.

Kobe Bryant just sat there and gasped for a while, and said, "What's the matter, Smart, the warm-up has just ended, and the training hasn't really started yet." ”
