Chef at the University Canteen-Chapter 336 - 238: Jiang Yu’s Homemade Nutritious Meal—Want a Taste? (3)
Liu Xiaohu, tell me yourself, at the age when it’s easiest to improve your performance, you’re still 12 centimeters short of being an athlete. What chance do you have in your junior and senior years?
What chance do you have to compete with those top-level athletes?"
Standing in the lineup, Liu Xiaohu hung his head deeply, full of guilt, but also felt very aggrieved inside:
I’ve already worked so hard, but what can I do if the results don’t improve?
Maybe I’m just not cut out for this...
Hearing Coach Yin’s merciless scolding of Liu Xiaohu in front of everyone, the others were even more silent, each with their heads down, not daring to speak.
Sure enough, Coach Yin didn’t let the others off the hook either. He pointed at them with his finger and scolded,
"Don’t think that just because I didn’t call your name, you’re doing great. In reality, every one of you isn’t even as good as Liu Xiaohu!
If a person loses their sense of shame and doesn’t strive to be better, how are they any different from a salted fish?"
These words made Liu Xiaohu and the others’ faces burn with embarrassment, feeling like they’d been slapped in the face, it really hurt!
After a long while, just when everyone thought today’s "opening lecture" before training was finally over, Coach Yin unscrewed his cup, took a sip of water, and continued:
"I’ve been thinking carefully these days, you all train hard, so why aren’t your results improving?
Is it your problem, or is it my problem as your coach? Is my training method wrong, or is my training plan inadequate? I’ve thought for a long time but couldn’t figure it out.
With the provincial games approaching in July, your results are still in such a messy state. I’m really anxious!
In order not to embarrass the school and yourselves at the provincial games, to find out whether it’s your lack of effort or my training that’s the issue, starting today, the whole team will begin pre-competition intensive training.
Besides me, the academy has also invited Chen Lei, Lin Yahu, and Wang Dongkai to help. They will provide you with one-on-one training, whether it’s the standardization of technical movements or training content and intensity, there might be targeted changes.
I hope everyone can pick yourselves up during this time, train well, strive for a significant improvement in your performance by the end of the training, and if anyone drags their feet or embarrasses me, you’ll see what happens after training ends."
These words were said plainly, lacking the previous thunderous anger during the scolding, but everyone still felt scared, especially the last sentence!
Does he mean that if we don’t train well and embarrass him, he’ll settle accounts later? That’s so sneaky!
While most were feeling uneasy, a few were listening carefully to Coach Yin’s words, like Liu Xiaohu, who instead of panicking, had his eyes light up instantly, and after Coach Yin finished speaking, he eagerly asked:
"Coach, are you saying Lin Yahu and the others will be coming to train us today?"
As soon as he spoke, the others also reacted, and the once timid as quails group started chattering excitedly, unable to contain their excitement:
"I heard too, not only Lin Yahu is coming, but also Chen Lei, Wang Dongkai, and several others!"
"These seniors have all won championships, if they’re willing to help us train, our performance will definitely improve!"
"Senior Chen Lei is my idol, a world championship winner, if only I could be like her!"
"..."
Looking at the group of students in front of him, all with excited expressions, and hearing their discussions, Coach Yin’s already stern face turned even darker, like a cloud suddenly cast a shadow, becoming gloomy.
Coach Yin couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself, they think just because those guys are training them, their results will definitely improve? Does that mean my abilities are lacking?
Alright, let’s wait until the training is over, if your results don’t improve, we’ll see how I deal with you then!
These poor students haven’t even realized that the words they’ve said unconsciously might bring them an unpredictable "disaster."
At this moment, they’re happy.
But they weren’t happy for long, since the seniors hadn’t arrived yet, Coach Yin naturally wouldn’t waste a good time with everyone waiting, so with a command, the team began jogging around the track.
This was just the warm-up activity before the daily training, and they wouldn’t run for too long, just enough to break a slight sweat.
When Liu Xiaohu and the others finished their warm-up, Chen Lei, Lin Yahu, and Wang Dongkai had already arrived at the training ground, chatting with Coach Yin.
"Shoot! Since I’ve known Coach Yin, I’ve never seen him smile at anyone, I thought he was born unable to smile, who would have thought he’d actually smile today!"
Liu Xiaohu pointed to Coach Yin not far away, who had a faint smile on his face, and looked back at Du Hua and Yao Xuehui, full of shock,
