Uma Musume: From Being Knocked Ten Meters Away

Chapter 90 I've told you so many times not to scream so weirdly

It is definitely impossible to run another training match in a short period of time.

Due to differences in venues, tracks, instructions, etc., the intensity of training matches is indeed lower than that of official matches, but it is not non-existent.

The next thing to do is definitely to rest and relax and recover.

Not only the Northern Black Horse, but also the horse racing girls who come to help have to go through this stage.

A training match is a type of high-intensity training, and there is a complete set of systematic processes for subsequent relaxation.

The first step is to relax immediately by walking slowly for 5 to 10 minutes, or jogging or cycling, and then add dynamic stretching, such as lunges, turns, and leg swings.

This can promote lactic acid metabolism and blood circulation, reduce muscle stiffness, and expel metabolic waste faster.

About an hour after training is the golden recovery period. At this time, you need to do static stretching, alternate hot and cold bath therapy, and use foam rollers and fascia guns.

This is followed by a deep recovery phase, which mainly involves replenishing carbohydrates, proteins, and sufficient electrolytes.

These are all equipped in the school's gym. It just so happened that the training match occupied the playground for a while, so after saying hello to the East Sea Emperor and Mejiro McQueen, An Jingzhen brought Kita no Xuanju and the others to the school's gym.

After a while...

"It hurts! This thing...why does it hurt so much?!"

“Hmph…hmph…it doesn’t hurt at all, okay, Yamato…you’re too weak…”

"Do you...want to find a mirror...and look at your expression now? Is that...a completely different expression?!"

"What do you care?! When I say it doesn't hurt...that's what happens!"

Listening to the conversation between Yamato Akagi and Vodka, Yasui felt somewhat unsurprised, yet also somewhat surprised.

After spending a few months together, he had discovered that these two horse racing girls were just as the rumors said, always vying for dominance in both big and small matters.

So when using tools like foam rollers and fascia guns, it's natural to compete to see who can endure the pain better.

These tools can effectively relieve muscle tension, promote blood circulation in local areas, and improve recovery after high-intensity training.

Of course, there is a downside here, which is that it is very painful to use.

Unexpectedly, Te Bie Zhou didn't know how to use these tools.

After a brief inquiry, I found out that this horse girl had indeed never used these when she was in service.

Or perhaps these tools didn't exist in her generation.

Having gained some new insights into the development of the Japanese horse racing girl world, Yasui Makoto thought for a while, and while paying attention to other horse racing girls, he also taught Special Week how to use the fascia gun.

“Address the gluteus medius first.”

Signaling Teji Zhou to use the fascia gun to aim at the right position, Yasui Zhen explained: "Just shift to 1st gear first, you need to get used to it first.

"After all, using this thing... is really painful."

"Is that so?"

Following the instructions, he pointed the round head of the fascia gun at the outside of his waist and started it. Then, Te Bie Zhou shuddered.

"Uh...it feels weird, and...it hurts a little."

"Yes, it is like that."

安井真点头道：“1到2档适合肌肉唤醒，3到4档才是用来放松的档位，5到7档可以用来分解乳酸。

"Go up gear by gear, and don't rush once you feel comfortable with the gears you're in."

"Okay, thank you Mr. Yasui." Te Bie Zhou nodded and slowly tried to operate the fascia gun.

After confirming she had mastered the use of the fascia gun, he instructed her to move it to the muscles near her Achilles tendon. Yasui Shin glanced at the other horse girls. After seeing that everything was fine, he picked up the tablet computer outside the relaxation area and walked over to Kita no Genju.

He made a lot of preparations for the training match, including rest and relaxation after the game.

The horse racing ladies all wore detection bracelets, and the data from the bracelets were wirelessly synchronized to the tablet.

Judging from the data, Zhou and the others are worthy of their reputation.

A Uma Musume's competitive ability is not only reflected in the competition, but also in her recovery after the competition.

With sufficient experience, even if she is not familiar with the use of the fascia gun, Zhou's recovery is quite good thanks to her past training experience, not to mention the other horse girls.

For example, after using the fascia gun, Zhou's Achilles tendon elasticity coefficient gradually increased, the heart rate variability of Yamato Akagi and Vodka gradually recovered to the baseline level, and the muscle tension index of Golden Ship gradually decreased.

In comparison, the recovery speed of the northern black colt is slower.

Yasui Makoto is here to guide this horse racing girl.

Sensing that An Jing was really approaching, Northern Xuanju looked over and greeted him, holding the fascia gun, with the muscles on his face tense and the corners of his mouth trembling.

"Trainer..."

"Well, we can move on to the hamstrings." Yasui Makoto nodded, keeping an eye on the data on the tablet screen.

"Hamstring, hamstring...?" Northern Xuanju was stunned.

"It's the muscles on the back of the thigh."

Turning halfway and patting the corresponding parts, Yasui Zhen explained: "The main force exerted by your leg muscles during the game is still in the leg muscles. Continue for 1 to 2 minutes at a time, and stay on the painful area for 10 to 15 seconds."

"This, this is it..."

With a slightly trembling voice, Kita no Genju tried to point the fascia gun at the location mentioned by Yasui Zhen, "Is it here...?"

Seeing the operational problem at a glance, Yasui frowned unconsciously and shook his head quickly, "No."

Putting down the tablet in his hand, he walked to the side of Beibu Xuanju and gestured with his hand.

Beibu Xuanju was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was asking for a fascia gun. Without thinking too much, she handed it over.

The next second, she felt a strong hand pressing on her thigh, and at the same time, a round, hard object pressed against the back of her leg.

"Trainer... Ugh—"

She screamed instinctively, but before she could finish, a feeling of numbness and pain attacked her whole body along the back of her legs, and she groaned unconsciously.

"I've told you so many times, don't scream so weirdly..."

Shaking his head helplessly, An Jingzhen held the outside of Kita no Xuanju's thigh with one hand, held the fascia gun in the correct position with the other hand, frowned slightly and began to mutter.

“And I’ve said it more than once, this kind of tool must be used in the right place, otherwise you’ll get hurt.

"Especially the popliteal fossa, where there are many superficial venous plexuses, which is where you just targeted.

"Also, the vibration frequency is very high, which may compress nerves and blood vessels and cause fainting.

"Really? I told you to tell me if you're not sure about the location before you proceed..."

While chattering, Yasui was focused on helping Northern Xuanju recuperate, and he didn't notice that this horse girl was staring at him with red cheeks.

On the other side, the other horse girls looked at him with strange eyes.

Yamato Akagi, Vodka and Golden Ship all looked okay. Although they looked strange, they had a somewhat indifferent expression on their faces. The latter even looked like he was enjoying the show with great interest.

The special week was weird and awkward, and within the awkwardness there was a vague curiosity.
