Chapter 5 Walnuts (Ask for Recommendations)

On the outside of the beach, there is a greenway dedicated to jogging and walking, which winds along the beach. There will be quite a few people running on this greenway. It fully reflects the characteristics of the Brazilian people's love for sports.

Glory and the old fairy were standing on this greenway at this time.

The old fairy first took out a watch-like thing from his pocket and put it on Glory's left wrist.

"It's a pedometer, so you can tell you how far you've run."

The old fairy explained succinctly, and then he took a walnut out of his pocket, and then leaned down and placed it at Glory's feet.

"Kick." The old fairy was concise and to the point.

Glory gently kicked the walnut out of the crack. This time there is no net pocket, and the walnuts are light, even if the glory is lightly kicked, it will roll out of the road.

The key is that the surface of the walnut is uneven and the shape is irregular, and the walnut is bouncing on the ground, and the trajectory cannot be predicted at all.

Rong Guangming kicked straight ahead, but the walnut rolled to his left and was almost kicked out of the greenway, eventually stumbling on the edge of the greenway and bouncing back.

"Oops......" Rongguang originally ran to the left, but the walnut was bounced to the middle, so he made a sharp stop and changed direction, turned to the middle to catch up and continued to kick, it was still the same, this time the walnut rolled to the right, and simply rolled out of the greenway, the low edge of the greenway did not stop the bouncing walnut.

When he ran to the beach to retrieve the walnuts, he saw the old fairy hooking his hand at him.

So he ran back with the walnuts.

"Look at this." The old fairy pointed to a billboard next to him, an advertisement for Habanas flip-flops.

"This is yours." The old fairy continued. "When Walnut is kicked off the track, you're going to get back in here and keep running, and then zero out the pedometer." The old fairy said to teach Rongguang how to use a pedometer

"Ten kilometers in the morning and ten kilometers in the afternoon every day, when I finish running, when I eat and sleep."

Hearing the words of the old immortal, although he was already mentally prepared, Rong Guang still looked at the old immortal with his mouth open.

Running 20 kilometers a day is not much for Rongguang, a mountain child who has been running in the mountains since he was a child, and it is not tiring.

But when you add in the rules of kicking walnuts and kicking walnuts off the track and going back to rerun, those 20 kilometers are unusual......

"Questions, boy?"

Rong Guang wanted to say that there was a problem, but when he thought that the old immortal must have his intentions in arranging it like this, how could the idea of the immortal be understandable to mortals?

So he swallowed, then shook his head: "No, old fairy. ”

"Okay, let's run."

After saying that, the old fairy turned around and walked away, seemingly disdainful of monitoring whether Rong Guang was going to train according to his requirements.

Glory looked down at the walnut in his hand.

What's the point of kicking walnuts for a run?

Glory can't figure it out, but what the old fairy said must be right!

With such a simple thought, Rongguang threw the walnut on the ground, the surface was uneven, and the irregularly shaped walnut jumped on the ground, and finally fell to the left front about two meters away from Rongguang's current position.

When I dropped the walnut, I didn't know where it would end up...... When it first landed, it obviously went to the right, but through the constant collision between the ground and the ground, it changed direction several times during its operation, and finally fell to the left front of the glory.

Rong Guang didn't think about the point of kicking walnuts like this, he began to follow the old fairy's request and kick walnuts for running.

This time, after knowing the rules, he kicked carefully, trying not to let the walnuts out of bounds.

But then his speed became very slow.

After Walnut was kicked out of the alley by him, the direction was uncertain, and he had to follow Walnut to change direction, running like a serpentine route on the three-meter-wide greenway.

This puts a lot of strain on both the knees and the crotch.

After running for a long time, Rongguang looked at the pedometer on his wrist, which was only ninety-five meters!

His expression was glazed - he thought he should have run at least a few hundred meters

At this speed, how long will it take to run 10 kilometers? Can you still make it in time for lunch?

He had to pick up the pace.

The result of the speed increase is that the trajectory of the walnut becomes more and more irregular, and the glory has to change direction many times after starting once, and it is only after the last time that the walnut can be accurately captured.

But that's not the worst thing, the most terrible thing is that after a few kicks, Walnut is kicked out of the greenway.

So he had to run out of the box to pick up the walnuts, then run back again, clear the pedometer, and start running again......

Ten kilometers, the usual glory runs in the normal way, that is, it takes more than 40 minutes to run, and the slow is not more than an hour.

But now an hour has passed, and he has managed to advance a kilometer!

Just like that, he was sweating and panting.

Because he runs more than a kilometer!

The mileage that he scrapped probably added up to three or four kilometers.

If he only ran four or five kilometers normally, Rongguang would not be so tired.

But in the process of chasing walnuts, he had to keep stopping and starting to accelerate and change direction, all of which were bursts of force in a very short period of time.

This is anaerobic exercise and is very physically demanding. The main training is the fast contraction red muscle and fast contraction white muscle on Rongguang's body.

But at the same time, the exercise mileage of up to 10 kilometers, and the total exercise mileage in the process is far more than this number, which is a good training for the slow contraction red muscles in Rongguang's body.

The old fairy didn't tell Rongguang, but this seemingly nonsensical and childish walnut kicking training method can indeed exercise his three skeletal muscles at the same time, which can not only increase Rongguang's explosive power, but also improve his endurance.

At the same time, this kind of continuous change of direction and emergency stop and acceleration of the run, but also allows Rongguang to master the change of direction with the ball - although the current Rongguang has learned to dribble the ball, but it is a straight line to dribble, that is, to rush by speed in a straight line, this way of dribbling the ball is still too simple, once the opponent finds out that Rongguang will only do this, he is still easy to be stared at.

But if Rong Guang knows how to change direction and dribble...... That's a big deal!

With his speed, explosiveness, and continuous change of direction, it will be difficult for opponents to guess how he attacks!

The basic dribbling technique has been learned and practiced all the time when the team is trained to dribble around the pole, deepening the memory of the body cells in this area.

He just lacked the experience of combining this technique with his own speed. Kicking walnuts is a good way to practice.

It's just that these benefits, Rongguang is still unknown.

He only knows how to listen to the words of the old immortals, special training!

※※※

On the first day of special training, Rongguang didn't have lunch.

Dinner was served at eight o'clock in the evening.

When he had finally completed the twenty kilometers, he was sweating profusely, his legs could no longer support the weight of his body, and he collapsed to the ground, lying on all fours on the greenway, not paying the slightest attention to the surprised gazes of the others—he had no strength to care.

Lying on the ground, his chest heaving violently, his heavy breathing even drowned out the sound of the sea breeze and waves he had heard.

He felt as if he had walked in hell before he finally escaped.

Because he was so tired, he didn't eat a few bites of dinner, so he lay down in the tent.

"Lying on your stomach." The old fairy turned Glory over.

Then he began to give Glory a full body massage.

It's amazing, those sore parts of the body, after the massage of the old fairy, although they are still sore, but they feel very relaxed, as if the whole body is relaxed, every pore is expelling turbidity, breathing happily.

Especially the knees. This is where the most pain after a day of running. But under the miraculous massage techniques of the old fairy. The pain in my knee was much lighter.

Rongguang originally wanted to chat with the old fairy, but he was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to speak, so he just lay on the mat and let the old fairy massage his body.

After a tiring day, there is such a massage, which makes Rongguang feel very comfortable, and the whole person seems to have regained his life.

In this way, in a comfortable feeling, Rongguang fell asleep directly.

The old fairy heard a slight snoring coming from him, and he realized that Glory was asleep.

However, his men did not stop, but continued to massage and rub Glory's two knees and ankles.

Fatigue gathers here, and it must be dispelled, otherwise it will cause permanent damage due to overuse.

When a machine is overloaded, it needs to be maintained in a timely manner, as well as the body. One piece and one relaxation, the way to a long time.

※※※

Before six o'clock the next morning, Glory opened his eyes. When I woke up, I didn't even have a dream.

This foot slept deeply, and I was fully rested and relaxed, both physically and mentally.

The muscles are still a little sore, but they are much better than yesterday.

What surprised Rongguang the most was that his knees and ankles were basically no longer painful.

He thought of the massage that the old fairy gave him yesterday, and knew that this was the credit of the old fairy.

It's really worthy of being a fairy, but there is a way!

He stretched, put on only a large pair of pants, and climbed out of the tent.

The sea breeze that blew in his face made him shiver - although the temperature here ranged from 10 to 20 degrees during the day, and could reach 30 degrees when the sun was strong, it was still cold in the morning and evening, only a few degrees above zero. This is winter in the seaside city of Santos.

Feeling the chill, he hurriedly began to warm up on the beach.

Following the warm-up moves he learned at the São Paulo club, Rong Guang did it very seriously, and at the end of the day, he took out a football and flipped the ball on the beach.

Familiar with the practice of ball nature, he will not fall behind every day.

After all the warm-up moves, he started jogging on the beach.

I didn't carry the old fairy on my back, and I didn't carry the ball, it was just a very ordinary jog.

In winter, Santos was very cold at the seaside because of the strong wind, but Rongguang only wore a pair of big pants, topless, revealing strong two-pack pectoral muscles and six-pack abs - although it was only half a year, he was already much stronger than when he first arrived in Brazil.

This is due to his big appetite and the amount of training he does every day.

He didn't wear shoes either, just running barefoot along the soft sand along the sea.

It's six o'clock in the morning in Santos winter, before dawn, and the beach is empty, only the sound of the waves is heard continuously. Running alone on such a beach, it seems that he is the only one left in the entire world.

While jogging, breathe in the cold, damp, fishy air.

Sweat gradually oozed from his body.

When Glory had finally finished his jog, he stopped and stood by the sea, the water washing his feet and surging around the back of his body, leaving a mark on the sand and turning back.

He turned his head to look into the depths of the ocean and narrowed his eyes.

In the place where the sea and the sky met, a line of golden light spread out from below, extended upwards, and quickly occupied the dark blue field. The golden light was still spraying upward, left, right, and all directions, devouring the original darkness and outlining the outlines of the clouds in the sky.

The golden light was projected from the distant sea and sky, and every tiny bead of sweat on Rongguang's body reflected a golden world.

His whole body turned golden, and his figure cast a slender shadow on the beach, stretching beyond the beach.

There is golden light on the sea, a morning glow in the sky, and the sun is about to rise.
