The gymnastics event of the Tokyo Olympic Games ended the competition for men's parallel bars on the 3rd, and China's Zou Jingyuan won the championship with a total score of 16.233 points with absolute strength and quality of movement. In fact, before this competition, Zou Jingyuan has been regarded by the outside world as the big hit of this project, and even gymnastics legend Uchimura Hangping praised Zou Jingyuan's talent, "He has reached the realm of the dimensional world." ”
Two years ago, the Chinese gymnastics team went to the Japanese gymnastics training center for joint training, which was a useful attempt for Chinese and Japanese gymnastics to learn from each other. Uchimura Hangping, who is famous in Japan and even in the world gymnastics range, saw Zou Jingyuan's training and performance over the years and gave this evaluation: "He is super concentrated in training, and his eyes are very lethal. His whole set of action difficulty composition and ornamentation are very strong, other players can not imitate, let alone can not refer to. His technique and expressiveness have also reached the realm of the dimensional world. ”
Zou Jingyuan, who can get such a high evaluation from Uchimura Hangping, is absolutely extraordinary, but this comes from his hard work and diligence. If Xiao Ruoteng is a representative of the talented athletes of the Chinese gymnastics team, then Zou Jingyuan is the spokesperson of the other extreme - the hard type. "He's like a training machine that never knows to stop, you know the gymnastics team usually trains a lot, but he's one or two times as much as the rest of the team." Zhang Chenglong, a veteran of the Chinese gymnastics team who has retired, commented on Zou Jingyuan's usual training intensity. "He's a perfectionist. Almost every action is pursued to the extreme. Sometimes, we are afraid that he is injured and have to strictly control his training volume. Teng Haibin, a former Olympic champion and assistant coach in charge of Zou Jingyuan, said so.
"I'm used to it, and if I practice less, I may feel unaccustomed to it, feel uncomfortable, and feel that I can't live like this." Zou Jingyuan once told the Beiqing-Beijing headline reporter.
Zou Jingyuan's hard work and diligence are the most distinctive labels on him, and they are also traits that he has had since he was a child. Zou Jingyuan is a native of Cuiping District, Yibin, Sichuan. Initially, the municipal sports school went to the urban area to select athletes in the Golden Street Kindergarten, and Li Xiaobing, who was the gymnastics coach of the municipal gymnastics school at the time, caught Zou Jingyuan at a glance, believing that his body conditions were more suitable, thin, his limbs were more symmetrical, and his body shape was very suitable for the selection of gymnastics projects.
After Zou Jingyuan entered the Municipal Amateur Sports School in 2002, he showed stronger willpower and comprehension ability than his peers, and hard work was Li Xiaobing's deepest impression of Zou Jingyuan. In gymnastics training, flexibility, endurance and explosiveness are the basis of training, leg pressing, running mountains, short sprints have become "commonplace", many times in order to practice endurance, the handstand is 20 minutes, not only the training clothes are completely wet, even the ground is shed a lot of sweat. "Competitive sports is to constantly challenge the limits of the human body, the legs are very painful, running is very tired, the handstands are also very hard, many dolls have been crying, and some can't stick to it, but Zou Jingyuan is more bitter than his peers, he has always persevered, and he is more active than other team members, and the practice time is longer." Li Xiaobing said this in an interview with the media.
"If there is no absolute foundation in normal training, then there will certainly be no results in the competition." Zou Jingyuan said that this is also a major creed in his years of practicing gymnastics. Before the Olympic Games, Zou Jingyuan had won almost all the championships in the gymnastics parallel bars event, and now this Sichuan boy finally stood on the highest podium of the Olympic Games as he wished, which was the best reward for his hard work.
In Zou Jingyuan's body, he perfectly interpreted the essence of heavenly reward.
