Chapter 19: Excess Rewards (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

Monday, during the morning rush hour.

Jiangdong District, Maocheng Road Intersection Station.

In the rain, a bus with a breast augmentation advertisement endorsed by a female celebrity passed by and stopped at the station.

Fang Cheng held up his umbrella and jumped out of the open back door.

I looked up and saw the colorful umbrellas also moving on the road.

He quickly walked on the accumulated water that almost covered the sidewalk and headed towards the brightly lit Wantong Shopping Center.

Due to job transfer, his rest time was also moved from Monday to Friday.

So, I have to go to work almost for two weeks in a row.

But for Fang Cheng, this is actually a good thing.

He hurried to the club, folded his umbrella and hung it on the rack at the door.

It was already 9:, but the venue was still relatively quiet.

Apart from the sounds of colleagues clocking in and chatting, I didn't feel the same passionate atmosphere as before.

It has been raining continuously for the past few days, and since it is a weekday, there are obviously fewer students coming to training and classes.

The entire training hall was empty, with only a few professional boxers doing their daily training.

Fang Cheng walked straight into the locker room and opened the locker with his key.

He took out a set of blue work clothes and a pair of lightweight non-slip boxing shoes from it.

Then he took out a plastic bag from the bag, which contained another set of clean clothes and shoes.

When working in a club, in addition to attendance and performance, you also need to pay attention to your personal image and hygiene.

Fang Cheng took off his slightly wet shoes, sat on a stool, changed into boxing shoes, and tied his shoelaces.

At this moment, a figure suddenly walked towards him.

"Ah Cheng, how is it to be transferred to the Sanda Club? Are you adapting well?"

His tone was generous, yet contained a hint of unexpected concern.

Fang Cheng looked up at the person who came.

Seeing that it was Chen Xiaohai who was in charge of the karate department, he replied calmly:
"good."

"If you need any help, just tell me. After all, I have worked here for 10 years and I am familiar with the connections."

"Okay, thank you Brother Hai."

Fang Cheng nodded and answered in his usual concise manner.

Chen Xiaohai smiled, patted Fang Cheng on the shoulder, and walked out of the locker room.

His actions also made other colleagues a little surprised.

When did the relationship between the two become so close?
Chen Xiaohai walked into Hall No. 2 whistling, with his hands behind his back, looking quite relaxed and comfortable.

In the past week, his mood has been like a roller coaster, up and down.

When he found out that Fang Cheng had refused to intern in the marketing department and offended Manager Li, his previous hostility disappeared immediately.

From time to time, he would ask about Fang Cheng and comfort him, acting like a good senior in the workplace who takes good care of newcomers.

Of course, in private, he would also say that Fang Cheng was young and energetic, determined to become a barrister, and looked down on the small club.

....................................

"Right frame, turn left, left frame, circle right..."

"Once the waist moves, the bottom pile must move first..."

In Training Hall No. 1, Xu Maocai's voice can almost be heard throughout the entire venue of thousands of square meters.

Fang Cheng stood with his hands behind his back, silently watching a group of students practicing various wrestling moves and force techniques according to the coach's instructions.

This class is an advanced course for veteran students, and mainly teaches the use of wrestling techniques in Sanda.

Kicking, hitting, throwing and grabbing are known as the four major techniques of Sanda.

The first two have absorbed more advanced and practical fighting techniques from abroad.

The latter two are the essence of the country's traditional martial arts.

Moreover, in comparison, the moves are more concise and practical, without any gimmicks of traditional routines.

To summarize Xu Maocai’s lecture, wrestling techniques can be summed up in one sentence.

"Use the momentum to lift the bottom, don't rely on yourself!"

"You just need to remember that all wrestling techniques in actual combat are based on these four key points."

Xu Maocai suddenly stopped the students who were practicing basic skills and asked them to start practicing in groups.

The students worked in pairs, trying out various throws and leg-taking moves on each other.

Some took turns throwing their classmates like sandbags to review their technical moves, while others competed with each other and used brute force to maintain a stalemate.

Fang Cheng looked at them intently.

While recalling the coach's lecture content, analyze the mistakes in the movements.

Gradually, I began to understand.

If the most important thing about boxing and kicking is to maintain the center of gravity, then the purpose of wrestling is to destroy the opponent's center of gravity.

It is not necessary to knock the opponent completely to be successful.

In actual combat, any part of the arms, torso, hips, legs and feet can be used to perform techniques.

Just putting your opponent in an unstable state is half the battle won.

Then, gently lean and hug the other person, and use the momentum to make him fall.

Or you can quickly follow up with punches and kicks, and launch a fierce attack.

The effects are several times better than simple wrestling.

The students didn't expect as much as Fang Cheng, but they were having a blast. In a class of less than ten people, there was only one lucky student left, sparring with the coach.

Snapped!
The lucky guy was knocked to the ground by a clean and neat "shoulder-over-back throw".

Although the floor was cushioned, it still took him a while to get up again.

Xu Maocai said seriously:
"Look, I stood there and let him fall, but he couldn't move. I just pulled him and he fell down immediately."

"Why? Because you are too weak!"

"If you want to learn something, it's not enough to just rely on three classes of physical training a week. Go back and do a few more sets of squats. Try again in a month. Your lower body will definitely be more stable than it is now."

The others just laughed and didn't take it seriously.

The lucky one was frowning and rubbing his butt.

After all, no one wants to be thrown around like a sack.

Fang Cheng, however, was full of envy and really wanted to go up and replace that student to try out the feel of the job.

The morning group class ended quickly.

When it was lunchtime, Fang Cheng went to the front desk to get his meal and came back with three takeout bags in his hands.

One of them was the company’s employee meal, and the other two were chicken leg rice takeouts that he ordered himself.

Seeing this, his colleagues couldn't help but ask him curiously if he had been hungry for several days, as to why he had such a good appetite.

Fang Cheng did not explain too much, just said that he did not eat breakfast, one meal is enough to fill up two meals.

Actually.

After morning exercise, he devoured 10 boiled eggs, 3 cartons of pure milk, and a tray of dumplings from the breakfast shop downstairs.

The reason why my appetite has become so outrageous is all because of squat practice.

That's right.

Yesterday, Fang Cheng had to choose between two enhancement rewards, and he finally chose the second one.

Added 1 point of strength attribute and obtained the skill effect of "The Lonely Person".

Let’s not talk about the topic of having a pillar of strength when getting up early.

Fang Cheng has read the book "Convict Conditioning" and knows that the essential principles of muscle training are actually very simple.

It is to tear some muscle fibers of specific muscle groups through overload resistance training.

Then use the body's own self-healing ability to repair and reorganize it.

The physiological mechanism of the human body is very amazing.

In order to prevent similar situations from happening next time, excessive repair will occur during this process.

That is, it becomes harder and thicker, thereby achieving the effect of strengthening the body and reducing injuries.

The same is true for bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, etc. Follow this exercise mechanism within a certain tolerable range.

Testosterone, as the most active male hormone, is the key driving force behind excess repair.

The "Lonely Man" special effect enables the body to secrete higher concentrations of testosterone than ordinary people during exercise.

Thereby stimulating muscle and bone growth and strengthening, continuously improving muscle dimensions and increasing bone density.

This means that with the same amount of training, the effect will be multiplied several times.

The dietary intake required by the human body will naturally increase accordingly.

Such enhanced special effects seem a bit crooked...

In fact, it can really be considered as a magical skill that rewards myself beyond my expectations!

Fang Cheng was gnawing on a chicken leg, his attention completely focused on the panel.

Click into the character attribute column, and dense prompt information instantly appears in front of you.

After practical verification yesterday and today, dozens of relevant information were screened out.

It can be seen that each time you practice squats, you gain 1 point of experience.

Next, whether you continue to exercise or work, the frequency of information about the two attributes of constitution and strength increasing by 0.001 points will become abnormally high.

The agility attribute performed relatively normally, but there was also a relatively obvious and considerable increase.

This effect can last for about 2 hours and then gradually fades.

It is just like some fitness fanatics who inject themselves with large doses of testosterone continuously without caring about their life.

Fortunately, the skills Fang Cheng used were within the range that his physique could withstand, so the negative effects were reduced a lot.

At most, your body will feel a little hot, your blood flow will speed up, and you may occasionally have a nosebleed.

"fine……"

Fang Cheng chewed a chicken bone and consoled himself silently:

"As long as my physique is strong enough, this side effect can be completely ignored."

After collecting the three lunch boxes, Fang Cheng walked out of the locker room and threw the packaging bags into the classified trash can in the corner.

Turning around and looking at the training hall, I saw several professional boxers who were always very hardworking.

They seemed to have not eaten lunch and were still doing anaerobic strength training such as weighted squats and lifting barbells.

Fang Cheng felt a surge of excitement in his heart, and couldn't help but think of the training plan he had made.

Now that the skill of "squatting" has been strengthened, it has become a veritable "fuel pump".

It would be a pity if we don’t make good use of it.

"Looks like I have to step up my game too!"

Fang Cheng muttered to himself, turned around and walked towards the locker room.

Next, prepare to challenge more difficult action options.
