Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

"Yes, that's it, go slower."

"Well, you did well..."

Zhuang Yu was doing physical training, and his physical trainer Derek was beside him, guiding and assisting him in his training.

Derek started to cooperate with Zhuang Yu in 15, but there was a break during that time. Later, Yang Jinsong taught Zhuang Yu the "Eight Forms Health Preserving Exercises", and Zhuang Yu re-hired Derek. The two have been cooperating ever since then.

After half an hour, Derek called a halt: "Take a break first."

Zhuang Yu stopped his physical training, but Derek was not idle. He was giving Zhuang Yu a massage to help him relax his muscles.

After resting for a while, Zhuang Yu stood up and said, "Come again."

Derek smiled bitterly and couldn't help but said, "Zhuang, I think it's enough. Let's stop training here today."

After saying that, seeing that Zhuang Yu was still insisting, he had no choice but to say, "Your physical fitness is already excellent, even if you look at the entire league, you are in the first echelon. I still think you should combine work and rest. Forcing yourself to improve your physical strength is not a long-term solution."

"I don't know why you keep increasing the intensity of your training, but your body is always able to adapt. To be honest, this is a bit incredible. I have never seen a situation like this in you. But as your physical trainer, I have to remind you of this."

That's because you don't understand the magic of the ancient Chinese health-preserving techniques... Zhuang Yu thought to himself, and said to Derek, "Thank you, Derek, but don't worry, I know my limits, keep going."

Derek had no choice but to continue.

In fact, Zhuang Yu did feel the limit of his body. His speed and jumping ability were already good enough and almost reached their limits. His strength, explosiveness, and physical fitness had not yet reached the top level of the NBA, but he felt that they were almost reaching their limits.

After another set of physical training, Zhuang Yu was sweating profusely and gasping for breath. He secretly sighed in his heart: "It seems that I am really reaching my limit."

During this period, his physical training and technical training reached a bottleneck.

The technical training mainly focuses on fadeaway jump shots and three-pointers. He feels that he has reached a bottleneck. If he can make a breakthrough, perhaps he can reach the level of Kobe and Curry.

But this step is not easy to take. It is not an easy thing. It is easy to say that surpassing the limit is easy, but it is very difficult to do it.

The same goes for his physical fitness. His strength, jumping ability, and endurance have all reached a bottleneck. Zhuang Yu does not think there is any so-called "racial limit". If there really is such a thing as "racial difference", his current physical fitness would have surpassed this limit long ago.

However, he could feel that his strength, jumping ability and endurance had reached a bottleneck, and it would be difficult to improve further.

This is not surprising.

Not everyone is LeBron James. There are very few people who have almost all the strength, speed, jumping ability, explosiveness and endurance like James.

People say that James has physical talents that are hard to come by in fifty or even a hundred years - and they are not kidding.

Looking at the entire NBA, not to mention the current players, even in the entire history of the NBA, how many players have the physical talent like James?

Very rare!

Even though the players who make it to the NBA are one in a million talented players, the vast majority of them are only talented in certain areas.

For example, Carter and LaVine, their talent obviously lies in jumping.

For example, O'Neal has explosive strength talent.

For example, Iverson has maxed out his speed talent. Others may use a hundred moves to dribble past others, but he can use one move to dribble past others a hundred times.

Zhuang Yu's speed and jumping ability are almost the best in the NBA. After practicing the "Eight-Form Health-Preserving Exercises", his hard training accelerated, and his strength, explosive power, and endurance have all improved significantly. But like many people, he does not have full talent.

Zhuang Yu didn't think there was anything wrong with this. No one is perfect. God gave James such physical talent, but didn't that also limit his shooting talent?

If there really is someone who has maxed out his physical talents, technical talents, and basketball IQ, would others still want to play?

NBA players are human beings, not robots.

However, he still wanted to improve as much as possible, even if it was just a little bit. He didn't want to completely crush others, but at least he couldn't have too big shortcomings.

......

Another half an hour passed before Zhuang Yu finished his training.

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

Zhuang Yu was breathing heavily. Kuzma handed him a towel. Anderson said, "Brother, you are already very strong. No, you are already one of the top players in the league. There is no need to treat yourself like this."

Several others echoed in unison.

The main reason is that it is too discouraging. Others are more talented than you and work harder than you. How can people survive?

Zhuang Yu just smiled and didn't respond: "Kyle, I'm going back to China in a few days. Don't you have one-eighth Chinese blood? Do you want to go to China with me?"

Anderson immediately laughed: "You still remember it, I thought you had forgotten it."

When the two first met, Anderson told Zhuang Yu that he had one-eighth Chinese ancestry, and that his grandmother wanted to go to China to look for her family.

Zhuang Yu smiled and said, "Of course I remember. How about coming with me to Huaxia and bringing your family back to look for your relatives."

Anderson thought about it and said, "I have to go back and discuss this with my family."

Since Anderson was invited, Zhuang Yu naturally had to invite Clarkson as well, along with Nance Jr., Zubac and others.

However, they all declined.

They haven't had a holiday since the end of the playoffs.

Zhuang Yu didn't force them. Those who were willing to go could go, and those who didn't want to go were fine too.

Besides, An Xin was pregnant, so he had to deal with many things when he went back this time. He also had to accompany An Xin, so he didn't have much time to entertain his teammates. Anderson was going back to look for his relatives, and the others were just going to travel. Zhuang Yu didn't have time to accompany them, so he didn't go.

......

A few days later, Zhuang Yu finished his work in the United States.

That day, a group of people arrived at the airport.

In addition to Zhuang Yu and An Xin, there were Anna, Yang Jinsong, Anderson and his mother Susanna, grandmother Miriam, and Zhou Zhiming and Zhou An who came to see them off.

After discussing with his family, Anderson decided to take his family to China with Zhuang Yu and others. His grandmother Miriam was very concerned about finding her relatives.

Anderson's great-grandfather was from Guangdong Province, China. He went to Jamaica to pan for gold in the early 20th century, and remarried a local Chinese woman there and had children. Miriam is his daughter. When she was a child, she often heard her father talk about China and yearned for it.

"Uncle Zhou, you guys go back." Zhuang Yu said with a smile, and patted Zhou An on the shoulder, "Train well and wait for me to come back."

"Yeah." Zhou An agreed.

When Zhuang Yu comes back, they will continue to train together.

A plane took off into the sky and flew towards China...
