Chapter 289: Steady and steady

Training, this is indeed the part that Gao Wen does not need to worry about the least. The existence of the system is the best backing, which also gives Gao Wen enough confidence.

However, ever since the new function appeared in the system, Gao Wen has been participating in the competition without any contact. The high-intensity competition schedule has prevented Gao Wen from studying this function properly. It was not until yesterday when he was resting that he had the opportunity to study it carefully and could not help but feel delighted.

However, Grant did not know this, so after he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, as if he had other concerns in his mind. After hesitating for a while, Grant still boldly put forward his suggestions.

"John, Martin and I suggest that if Gao Wen wants to turn professional, he needs a more professional, dedicated and targeted coaching team to build a whole training plan for him from beginning to end, and then let Gao Wen grow in three months or even longer."

“Otherwise, if we just rely on discussing plans without a long-term goal and systematic planning, and make local adjustments periodically, without a context and framework, it will be very disadvantageous from a career perspective.”

This is advice that is wholeheartedly considered for Gao Wen, sincere and genuine.

Gawain glanced at Grant with some surprise, having not expected that Grant and Martin had discussed this issue at all. They were obviously worried about his career, but objectively speaking, their position was indeed a bit awkward.

If Gauwen turns pro, would Grant or Martin be willing to leave UCLA and join Gauwen’s staff?

After all, the life of a professional player is very hard. For many years, they need to fly around the world with the players to participate in competitions, and they may not have much time for themselves throughout the year.

Grant and Martin both have their own families and stable lives in Los Angeles. They may not be willing to travel around like this.

Moreover, are they really suitable for Gao Wen? This is another question mark.

This has not really been discussed before because Gao Wen is still young, and participating in the competition in the summer is a kind of experience. It is normal to do what McDonald and Ji Long did. After the impact of the Challenge Tournament, it is very likely that the two will return to college to continue playing. Both of them still need time to grow.

However, no one expected Gawain to rise so quickly. His unbeaten streak of 15 games in three weeks was truly astonishing. There were surprises every day, and problems that did not need to be considered at all slowly surfaced.

This was a situation that no one had expected.

Before Gawain could speak, Tobias took the initiative to take over the conversation.

"Of course, of course."

"The coaching team must be assembled to accompany Gao Wen all the way to the competition, but from the current point of view, we need to face the test of the US Open first, and then decide the pending decisions one by one."

Grant received a positive answer and nodded slightly to show his agreement. He then said nothing more. He cast an inquiring look at Tobias, and when he was sure that Tobias had nothing to say further, he turned to Gawain and raised his chin.

"The three-minute break is over, next set of training."

Gawain looked at Grant's serious face, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and made a joke.

"Ah, my lazy thoughts have been exposed."

Having said that, he did not hesitate. He took a deep breath and walked towards the next training item.

Looking at the training program in front of him, which was jokingly called "challenging the Guinness record" by the Brown Bears players, Gao Wen also needed to take a deep breath to adjust his state.

Grant came over and patted Gawain on the shoulder. "Don't worry, you can do it. Twenty seconds, twenty seconds. Get ready!"

Huh! Gawain let out a long breath and grabbed the two thick ropes on the ground in front of him.

Battle Ropes.

This is a project that originated from professional fighting training. It uses a thick hemp rope similar to tug-of-war for training. It is an explosive fat-reducing training with very low damage to human joints. It is a combination of aerobic training and strength training, which is very effective in reducing body fat percentage.

The main focus is strength training, as well as core muscle and cardiopulmonary training to enhance stability, coordination, explosive power and endurance.

Coincidentally, all of these are the areas that Gawain needs to improve the most at the moment, so after returning from Aptos, he officially added this training.

Battle rope training mainly uses the centrifugal force during exercise vibration to create an unstable state to train the trainee's stability. All battle ropes have different thickness, weight, and length. The thicker, heavier, and longer the ropes, the more difficult it is. The thinnest is about the thickness of three fingers, while the one Gao Wen is using now can reach the thickness of a baby's forearm.

In fact, battle ropes have only gradually entered the field of tennis in the last two years, but they have not yet become popular. Instead, they are used as an item to change the rhythm and content of training. The Bruins team only uses them occasionally. But starting today, Gao Wen needs to include battle ropes as a formal training item.

Why is it called the "Guinness Challenge"? Because it is like a strongman pulling a truck. And don't underestimate the short 20-second training. The burning feeling is very scary.

At this time, Gawain grabbed the iron handles at both ends of the battle rope with both hands. At Grant's command, he swung his hands up and down at the same time, as if he was pulling a big rope. The speed gradually increased, and after reaching a certain level, he maintained a constant speed, but the center of gravity of his body was still pulled by the powerful shock force.

The battle rope continued to rise and fall like a tangible sound wave. The violent turbulence created waves of air, as if the air was also agitated, and then the strong centrifugal force pulled the body to vibrate along with it.

"Ten, nine, eight..."

Hold on! Hold on! Gao Wen always insisted on using his core strength to control his body balance and use his stability to resist the vibration, but it became very, very difficult because of the up and down swinging of his arms. The power was centered on his waist and abdomen, extending along the muscle lines to his arms and thighs. It was as if he could clearly feel the delicate touch of millions of ants climbing along the sweat, so that his muscles could not control and tremble slightly.

"Seven, six, five..."

Because the power of the battle rope was getting stronger and stronger, Gawain couldn't help but swing along with it. He tried his best to control the amplitude but it was still slowly getting stronger and stronger. At the same time, he could feel the reaction force pulling on his body, and his steps were slightly unsteady.

Toes, tighten! Teeth, clench! "Four, three, two..."

Grant's countdown was so slow that it felt like half a century had passed, but the countdown hasn't ended yet?

Wait, how many seconds did you say?

Gawain felt like his body couldn't hold on any longer and he was going to be transformed into a human kite in "The Promise" in a matter of minutes. What the hell was going on with Grant?
