At the Ironman Training Center, Max was leaning on the boss's chair, holding a work briefing in his hand. Sitting in front of him was a middle-aged man with a beard. This beard was an old employee who had been with Max for many years. He is also the highest-level and most experienced coach in the Ironman Training Center, and can be called Max’s right-hand man.
"How about the new ones? Can they all adapt to the new job?" Max asked.
"Their execution ability is still very good and they can complete the work according to the training plan." Beard said, his expression began to look hesitant.
Max noticed that the beard looked unnatural, so he asked, "What's wrong? Did you find any problem?"
"I can't talk about the problem, but I think the new coaches' performance is a bit too ordinary." The bearded man said.
"Too ordinary? What do you mean?" Max asked.
"Every aspect is very ordinary. At least based on my observations during this period, I have not found any bright spots. Their ability seems to be limited to completing the assigned work. If I were to describe it, I think their performance can even be described as ' "Mediocre" is the word to describe it." The bearded man said.
The evaluation of "mediocre" made Max a little unhappy. After all, he spent a lot of money to poach people. If he didn't show high business ability, it meant that Max was wrong. This time he poached people. People are failures.
"Maybe they just arrived and haven't fully adapted to the working environment here." Max made an excuse.
"It's also possible." Beard said, took out a folder, handed it to Max, and then said: "This is the training plan that Jones developed for the beach lifeguard physical training class students, and it was previously filed with me. I feel that this physical training program is too routine and has no specificity at all, as if it was downloaded from the Internet."
Max took the folder and read it carefully.
Max was also considered an expert. He looked through several physical training programs and found that the contents were all similar. One copy looked pretty good when taken out individually, but several copies looked together as if they were in the same version. Works revised above. It's like a year-end summary every year, just changing the time of last year's one.
"It's really ordinary." Max was suddenly in a bad mood. Jones was the first coach he hired, and he also had high hopes for Jones. However, judging from this training plan, Jones obviously did not meet Max's psychological expectations.
"This Jones, judging from these training plans alone, I'm really sorry for the salary I offered him." Max seemed a little hesitant, but he still said: "Last year, Jones only lasted a month. Within a short period of time, six people passed the beach lifeguard assessment. This is a real achievement after all, and he has proven himself. Although these training plans seem ordinary, I guess that he may not He is too good at formulating detailed training plans, and perhaps he is better at practical training. In fact, as long as the training effect is good enough, the rest is not important."
"I hope so." The bearded man shrugged, but it could be seen from his expression that he was not optimistic about Jones.
…
Dai Li's training center.
Amidst the magical music, Dai Li was leading a group of students in a warm-up square dance.
Many students feel uncomfortable with the not-so-large dance movements of square dancing. They have never seen this kind of warm-up.
"Coach Li said this is a warm-up exercise. I have never seen this kind of warm-up exercise. We seem to be dancing!"
"But I think this warm-up exercise is very effective. I feel warm all over my body now. You can see there is sweat on my forehead."
"I guess this warm-up may have something to do with Chinese Kung Fu. Do you think Coach Li knows Kung Fu?"
"Nine times out of ten, maybe he can fight like Jackie Chan."
"Idiot, Jackie Chan is just a movie star, not a fighting master."
"You are the idiot. Jackie Chan does real Kung Fu! He brought Kung Fu into the movie."
"Guys, I suggest you don't argue and save your energy. It's just a few minutes of warm-up exercise, and I'm already sweating. Now I feel like I've played half a basketball, maybe for a while The formal training will make us all tired."
"It looks like we won't have a good time in the next few days."
"Do you regret signing up? I've told you a long time ago that Coach Li is not an ordinary coach."
…
The blond boy Cruise finished the day's training and walked out of the Ironman Training Center.
Back home, he ordered a pizza delivery and took a bath.
After getting out of the bathtub, Cruise felt a lot more relaxed. He stood in front of the mirror, looked at himself in the mirror, counted his eight-pack abs, and then bulged his big biceps.
"Compared to before training, there seems to be no obvious change." Cruise touched his "mermaid line", picked up the razor and began to clean his body hair.
At the same time, Cruise couldn't help but recall the training of the past few days.
"The training programs are very routine. It seems like they are just the same training program in an ordinary gym, but the training intensity is increased. It seems that professional physical training centers are nothing more than that, and they are not much better than gyms. , just ordinary!”
Thinking of this, Cruise suddenly felt that he had spent money unfairly. This physical training course was much more expensive than a gym membership, and what Cruise got was double the amount of training.
"I don't know what's going on with Hassell. I heard that he went to Coach Li's training center." Cruise thought of his good friend.
…
Fatty Hasel collapsed on the ground. At this time, he was panting heavily, sweat dripped from his cheeks to the ground, and his whole body was completely exhausted.
"The five-minute rest time has come. Get up quickly and complete the next training!" Dai Li's voice sounded. At this moment, to Hasel's ears, it was like a reminder shouted by the devil.
However, Hassell still struggled to get up and started training for the next event according to what Li Dai said.
The next training program is fat loss exercise, which is also a unique training program for Hassell.
Hassell's performance made Dai Li nod with satisfaction. Although the fat man looked like an otaku, he was actually very perseverant. At least so far, he had persisted in all the physical training items.
After a day of training, fat Hassell dragged his tired body into the bathroom. A few minutes of hot water bath made him feel much better and relieved his muscle pain.
"Huh!" The fat man took a deep breath. He stood there and let the water spray down from the shower head, not even bothering to move.
"So tired!" The fat man recalled the past few days and felt as if he was living in hell.
The rain water fell on the fat man's face, making him unable to open his eyes. He subconsciously lowered his head to avoid the water and opened his eyes at the same time.
A very familiar thing fell into Fatty's eyes, that was his little brother.
At this second, the fat man's eyes widened, and his expression suddenly seemed lively.
"I saw it! I can see it when I lower my head!" The fat man suddenly became active.
If it were in the past, the fat man would never be able to see his little brother if he lowered his head directly, because his big belly would block his sight and his little brother. But today, when the fat man lowered his head, he could actually see his little brother.
The fat man instantly understood that it was not that his little brother had grown bigger, but that his belly, which had previously blocked his view, had become smaller!
The fat man finished the shower as quickly as possible, and without bothering to dry himself, he came to the mirror all wet.
There is still a fat man in the mirror, but a fat man who looks energetic.
The fat man patted his belly and felt that the fat had become much firmer. Then he tried to raise his arms to bulge up his biceps. The arms that were originally full of loose fat actually started to grow as he exerted force. , with some fluctuation.
"Oh yeah!" Fatty couldn't help cheering. He had already realized that the training these days was really effective.
For Fatty, "seeing is believing" is indeed very impactful. At this moment, the fire of hope in his heart has been ignited. He suddenly feels that all the fatigue and pain experienced during training are valuable. If he keeps working hard, he may actually pass the 24-hour Frogman Challenge.
…
Jones's face looked a little anxious. The training class he was responsible for had started for more than 20 days, but he was not satisfied with the progress made by the students, or the training effect did not meet his expectations at all.
"Last year, by the 20th day of training, the students had already made significant progress. But this year it is not the case at all. Many people seem to have made no progress at all. Why is this? The training program I use, It’s almost the same as last year, but why is the gap in training effectiveness so big!”
Jones didn't know that at Dai Li's training center last year, although the training plans provided by Dai Li were all conventional training items, they were extremely targeted. Dai Li's detector can instantly identify everyone's shortcomings. If you make up for your own shortcomings, you will definitely feel obvious progress.
More importantly, at that time, due to the role of the team pyramid, Jones, as a member of Dai Li's team, enjoyed the training bonus of a first-class coach. But now, Jones has changed jobs, and without the bonus of a first-class coach, Jones' The training effect is back to the old days when I was a coach in the gym.
The standard of the gym and the standard of the physical training center are not on the same level. This is the gap between amateurs and professionals. Just like some amateur athletes, they may be very powerful in the eyes of ordinary people, but if they compete with professional athletes on the same stage, they are not at the same level at all.
At the beginning, Dai Li's training center really had no manpower available. He couldn't find a suitable candidate in a short time, so he hired a gym-level coach like Jones. However, Dai Li's training plan and team pyramid bonuses , which makes up for Jones's lack of training level. They only need to carefully implement the training plan to achieve good training results.
But for other high-level training centers, using coaches from ordinary gyms is simply a disaster. Because high-level physical training is like sailing against the current, not going backwards. A high-level athlete has been training with you for a few months, but instead of improving, his level has deteriorated. Once this kind of damage to his own brand happens, it will be really difficult to continue the business of the training center.
…
Dai Li came to Blake's office with a stack of resumes.
"Among these resumes, three of them are pretty good. Let's give them a trial period and make use of them!" Dai Li handed several resumes to Blake.
Blake took the resume, glanced at it, and asked hesitantly: "Should we give them a full-time contract? Instead of part-time? These three people are too ordinary. Their work experience, at best, is working in a gym. In my opinion, Now, they are not good enough to get a full-time contract at a training center of our level."
"I also know that they are all ordinary, but what can I do? Isn't there a shortage of people now? Among the resumes we have received recently, they are all like this. I can only choose the general among the cripples!" Li Dai helplessly Shaking his head: "But the three people I picked have all been athletes, and they are not very old. I hope they can have a certain degree of plasticity. Maybe they will cultivate a qualified coach. If they are lucky, maybe they will Raise the Payton kind.”
"Are you going to train yourself again? Once you train talents, they will be poached by others." Blake poured cold water on them.
"Then let them dig. If they keep digging, they will know that those who are poached from me may not necessarily be talented people." Dai Li couldn't help but smirk.
