Song Guangming, head coach of the provincial weightlifting team, took Li Dai to the Central Training Room.
"Everyone, listen first and come to me." Song Guangming clapped his hands, and all the coaches and athletes stopped what they were doing and gathered around.
"I would like to introduce my new colleague to you. The young man next to me is named Li Dai. He is the new physical coach of our team." Song Guangming said, gently pushing Li Dai and saying, "Xiao Li, come and follow me." Everyone, please introduce yourselves.”
"Hello everyone, my name is Li Dai. Li means Muzi Li and Dai means 'love' Dai. My hometown is in Yuzhou City. You can just call me Xiao Li. Please take good care of me in the future." Li Dai said.
"Li Dai, this is a good name. I read a novel two days ago. The protagonist is an athlete named Zhang Guan. Your two names together happen to be 'Zhang Guan and Li Dai', haha!" There is one who is more outgoing. The coach spoke.
Next to him, Song Guangming interjected: "Huang Xiang, you have the nerve to talk about others, but your own name is not nice either. Xiang, it's still Huang... It makes me panic just thinking about it!"
"Coach, stop teasing me!" Huang Xiang said with a smile.
Song Guangming pointed at Huang Xiang and said to Li Dai: "His name is Huang Xiang. This guy has a big mouth that can't be pumped. He often tells some non-nutritive jokes. Come and let me introduce you to other people. This guy is Coach Ma Guangyi, he is the deputy head coach of our weightlifting team, and he manages many trivial matters in our team."
"Hello, Coach Ma." Dai Li greeted immediately.
"Hello." Ma Guangyi nodded towards Dai Li, but it didn't appear to be true.
"This is coach Wang Wei, this is coach Liu Tao, this is..." Song Guangming introduced them one by one, and Li Dai just remembered them as familiar.
"Okay, everyone, let's get back to work!" After Song Guangming finished the introduction, he waved to Ma Guangyi: "Old Ma, Dai Li has just arrived and is not familiar with the environment yet. You should take him to familiarize himself with the surroundings first. "
"Okay, Xiao Li, leave it to me." While Ma Guangyi nodded in agreement, a chill flashed through his eyes.
…
Ma Guangyi took Li Dai around the weightlifting team to get familiar with the team's environment.
"Okay, Xiao Li, our weightlifting team only has such a big space. Next, let's talk about work arrangements." Ma Guangyi glanced at Dai Li and then asked: "We are also quite tight on manpower here. How about you start today?" Work, no problem?"
"No problem, I can start working at any time." Li Dai said.
"Well, have you ever trained a weightlifter before?" Ma Guangyi asked.
Dai Li shook his head: "I have seen other coaches train, but I have never trained weightlifters myself. I am not familiar with the professional training of weightlifters, but I will definitely have no problem with physical training. "
"That's right, you are a physical fitness coach." Ma Guangyi paused and then said: "In this case, I will not arrange professional training tasks for you. You are new here, so you should focus on getting familiar with it. This way Well, I will arrange an experienced old athlete for you, you go and partner with him first."
Ma Guangyi turned around and continued: "Old athletes are relatively mature in terms of technology and do not need to provide technical guidance to them, so it is enough to assist them in strength and physical training. You can also borrow Let’s get familiar with the training process of weightlifting.”
"Thank you, Coach Ma." Dai Li glanced at Ma Guangyi gratefully. He felt that what Ma Guangyi said made sense, and by assigning him an experienced veteran athlete, he was also taking care of himself, a newcomer.
"Okay, since you have no objection, let's do it." After Ma Guangyi finished speaking, he led Li Dai to a corner. There was a strong man holding a straight barbell without any weight in his hand. Do basic movement exercises.
Getting closer, Dai Li finally saw the man's appearance clearly. He was in his early thirties, definitely less than 1.7 meters tall, and his skin was a little dark, but he had thick eyebrows, big eyes, a big nose and thick lips. She has a pair of provocative ears, a very high hairline, and is already bald, but overall, she still looks very good.
Ma Guangyi walked up to the athlete and said: "Jiang Aiguo, this is the new Coach Li. When Coach Song introduced him just now, you should have known him. Your recent training was coached by this Coach Li." Take responsibility.”
"Hello, Brother Jiang, my name is Li Dai." Li Dai took a step forward and stretched out his right hand.
However, Jiang Aiguo just rolled his eyes at Dai Li and did not make any response. He just nodded silently and said, "I understand."
Jiang Aiguo's indifferent performance made Li Dai feel a little surprised. The so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person. Although the two parties were still relatively unfamiliar, Jiang Aiguo would not behave like this.
Ma Guangyi asked a few more innocuous things and left, minding his own business. Jiang Aiguo still looked indifferent, glared at Dai Li, and then asked directly: "Xiao Li, how old are you this year?"
"Twenty-three." Dai Li reported a false age. In fact, he had not celebrated his 23rd birthday yet.
"You can come to the provincial team as a coach at such a young age. Let's get in through connections!" Jiang Aiguo continued.
Dai Li was stunned and didn't answer. He couldn't answer this question. Strictly speaking, he did join the provincial sports team as a physical trainer only after Xu Zhongyi's strong recommendation, so he came in through connections.
Li Dai was thinking about how to answer Jiang Aiguo's question, but Jiang Aiguo waved his hand: "Okay, I understand. I asked why the team arranged a coach for me, and it turned out to be a young man like you."
Dai Li instantly understood that the reason why Jiang Aiguo seemed so cold was most likely because he was too young and had entered the sports team through connections, so he felt that he must not have much ability.
Those who engage in sports all rely on their true skills to make a living. To be precise, they rely on their results. Whoever has good results, whoever gets more honors, and whoever gets a gold medal has more gold content, can become awesome. The same is true for coaches. The more awesome disciples they bring out, the more powerful they are, and the more respected they will be by the athletes. Athletes would naturally not think highly of a newcomer like Li Dai who had no previous achievements, not to mention that Jiang Aiguo was still an old athlete in his thirties.
"Xiao Li, when I train in the future, you will be my assistant. You will do whatever I ask you to do. Do you understand?" Jiang Aiguo continued with a cold face.
"This means that I will be asked to be a coach's assistant!" Dai Li suddenly felt a little unhappy.
A coaching assistant is the lowest-end person in the training team. The job content is similar to that of a sparring partner. However, weightlifting does not require sparring, so the name was changed to "coaching assistant". In fact, even athletes can drink it. A person who leaves immediately.
After all, Dai Li is a well-established formal coach, and his status is a level higher than those contracted coaches. It is really a bit bullying to let him do the work of coaching assistance.
However, Dai Li then thought about it. He was new here, unfamiliar with the place, and didn't even understand the basic situation of the weightlifting team. There was no need to get into trouble with others on the first day of work. So Dai Li suppressed his anger and nodded in agreement. Come down.
"It's a new arrival, so it's better not to cause trouble. I'll endure it! The future is long, and gold will always shine!" Li Dai comforted himself silently in his heart.
