Chapter 249 The Blueprint
In the deep winter, the world seems to be desolate.
The original lush trees have become bare branches, and the green grass has become bleak and desolate.
Even the Oderkerk Lake, which is connected to the Amstel Canal through a tributary, is covered with a thin layer of ice floes.
Beneath the ice layer, the calm lake water can be vaguely seen.
With last year's experience, Yang Yang's warm-keeping measures during morning exercise in winter this year are more in place.
Going out from home all the way, flipping the ball and running fast on the small road by Lake Olkerk, there are few people along the way.
Upside down, the football became wet and slippery, and it was very difficult to control, which made Yang Yang's training more difficult, but made him more focused, for fear that if he accidentally lost the ball, it would be embarrassing. .
Today, he is no longer the boy who couldn't play the ball in the Almere youth academy.
This is also thanks to his unremitting daily practice over the past year and a half.
He dribbled the ball quickly, ran three laps around the lake, and got hot all over.
When I got home, I happened to see a Fiat arranged by the club parked in front of the house, and immediately smiled and pushed the door in.
The club began to enter the Christmas holiday, and the players basically went home for the holiday.
Fermaelen and Niklas Bendtner have also returned to China, and even Maxwell and Maicon have also returned to Brazil.
In Europe, this holiday is equivalent to the Chinese New Year, which is especially important.
Yang Yang had already agreed with his parents that he would have to devote himself to practicing hard when he went back for Christmas anyway, so he might as well stay in Amsterdam, at least there are all the facilities and equipment in De Tokmost.
"Good morning, Winston."
As soon as Yang Yang entered the door, he greeted Winston Bogard sitting in the living room with a smile.
Bogard looked at the time, nodded and smiled: "It's really on time."
"I'll take a shower first."
"I'll prepare breakfast for you and put it on the dining table."
"thanks."
Yang Yang quickly went upstairs to change and wash.
Today is Winston Bogard's first day as Yang Yang's personal trainer.
After Winston Bogard served as Yang Yang's personal trainer, he was not only responsible for his daily strength training, but also responsible for his three meals a day diet, which was also to better help Yang Yang train his body.
Bogard's training plan will continue the one he customized for Yang Yang when he was in the team before, but it will only be adjusted and strengthened in a targeted manner, mainly to adjust the state.
Yang Yang hopes to perform better in the second half, and also hopes to improve his physical strength as soon as possible.
Sometimes, he himself is not clear, in the end is the psychological effect? Really improved?
Anyway, he feels that after strength training, his speed and flexibility have indeed improved, and his performance on the court is getting better and better, which makes him more confident in Bogard's training.
More importantly, Bogarde is the fitness coach of Ajax. He has all the data of Yang Yang in his hands, and he will also intervene in the team's training in Portugal during the next winter break to ensure that Yang Yang's individual training can be effective. Closely integrated with the overall training of the team.
This is something that outside private schools cannot do.
…………
…………
After breakfast, Yang Yang took Winston Bogard's car to De Tokmost.
After the team returned to Amsterdam from Tokyo, the coaching staff informed Yang Yang and Bogard that during the winter break, Yang Yang was allowed to stay in De Tokmost for training, but he had to be accompanied by Bogard.
According to the agreement between Yang Yang and Bogard, they will rest on Christmas Day and the next day, and the rest of the time will remain the same.
After arriving at De Tokmost, the two went directly to the gym as usual.
After a period of training, the weight of Yang Yang's bench press was increased to 50 kg, and the muscles on his body gradually showed the results of strength training, which made him no longer look so thin.
Yang Yang is also convinced that as long as he keeps training, he will no longer be afraid of physical confrontation on the court.
In this one-on-one training, Bogard also did not hesitate to instill in Yang Yang his theoretical knowledge and experience of strength training.
As a physical fitness coach from a famous university, Winston Bogard has a wealth of practical experience. He has a very systematic and complete system of thinking about how to train the body.
From muscle structure to body fat to bulk, from resistance to flexibility to explosiveness…
He unreservedly taught Yang Yang everything he had learned in the past ten years, because he believed that only by understanding this would Yang Yang be able to train his body better.
It is impossible for a person with little knowledge to carry out his training well.
Yang Yang originally knew nothing about physical training, but after studying with Bogard for a few months, he was like a greedy sponge, constantly absorbing knowledge, and at the same time vaguely sketching a blueprint in his mind. .
He wants to have a perfectly balanced footballer's body.
Bogard was both happy and helpless about Yang Yang's idea.
He was happy because he saw Yang Yang's ambition, but he was helpless because he felt that Yang Yang seemed to think too simply.
"You are right at all, a high degree of self-discipline, coupled with scientific training, can indeed delay the career of sports players to the greatest extent, but don't forget that there is no perfection in this world, only the most suitable."
"It's like you, different age groups, different playing styles, different tactical positioning, different requirements on your body, you need to make fine adjustments according to these."
"But you're right about one thing, long-term strength training can protect your body from injury to the greatest extent possible."
Winston Bogard has a point, but Yang Yang still decided to work hard to strengthen his physical strength training.
He always believed that as long as he trained his physical strength against him, his performance would be even better than he is now.
Of course, the training of speed, basic skills and star skills cannot be left behind.
And these workouts will take up all his time.
…………
…………
From morning to evening, Yang Yang stayed in De Tokmost for training, and Winston Bogard was in full charge of lunch. He strictly controlled the nutrition mix, and ensured that Yang Yang's body was healthy during the winter break. The training effect is maximized.
It was not until night fell, after Yang Yang had dinner, he received a call that he left De Tokmost.
The caller was Guydo Albes, a well-known Dutch broker.
The agent is not well-known in Europe, and may even be out of the Netherlands, not many fans know him, but he has extraordinary connections and influence in Dutch football, Belgium and Germany and other surrounding countries.
His players include the De Boer brothers, Sneijder, Van der Vaart and Heitinga, among others.
Although Yang Yang's agent is Raiola, he has not considered changing the agent for the time being, but on the one hand, it is because of Sneijder and others, and Yang Yang's rising momentum is very obvious now, and Guydo Albes also Intention to get close to Yang Yang.
God knows, when will Yang Yang get rid of Raiola and find another agent?
Moreover, after many contacts with Yang Yang, Guydo Albes is also full of interest in Chinese players.
At the beginning of December, Yang Yang's teammate Zheng Zhi in the national team was invited to the Bundesliga powerhouse Hertha Berlin for a trial training, but during his trial training, Hertha Berlin introduced players in the same position, which made Zheng Zhi stay in the Bundesliga. The possibility becomes extremely low.
During the trial training of Hertha Berlin, Zheng Zhi called Yang Yang and told him some things.
Yang Yang also saw his helplessness, so he consulted several familiar friends, including Albes, and learned that Hertha Berlin was more out of the need to develop the Chinese market, not really interested in introducing Zheng. Chi.
Albes took the opportunity to propose that he could use Zheng Zhi to go to the newly-promoted Bundesliga Mainz for a trial training, because Mainz needs a player like Zheng Zhi.
Yang Yang knew Albes well and knew that he could be favored by many Dutch players. He was really reliable and had a good reputation, so he asked Zheng Zhi for his opinion. The latter decided to stay in Germany for a two-week trial.
Now, it's time for him to return from his trial training.
When Yang Yang walked out of the door of De Tokmost, he saw a black Audi parked outside the door, with Guydo Albes and Zheng Zhi standing beside the car waiting for him.
"Hey, Zheng Zhi, Guydo." Yang Yang greeted him with a smile.
When the two saw Yang Yang's training suit, why didn't they know that he was taking advantage of the vacation to train on himself?
Zheng Zhi also admired Yang Yang very much.
Not just his performance on the court, but also his hard work and diligence off the court, and his willingness to help others.
"How's it going? What's the result of Mainz's trial training this time?" Yang Yang asked with concern.
Zheng Zhi and Guydo Albes smiled at each other and nodded in unison.
"Speaking, what's the matter?" Yang Yang asked anxiously.
Looking at Yang Yang's anxious expression, Zheng Zhi clearly felt the concern of his teammates of the national team for him.
"Thank you!" Zheng Zhi didn't answer directly, but walked over and hugged Yang Yang gratefully, "You helped me realize my dream of studying abroad, thank you so much!"
"Ah?" Yang Yang didn't react for a while.
Guido Albes on the side explained with a smile: "Mainz coach Klopp appreciates Zheng very much. He can play in midfield, back and central defender. He is very comprehensive and exactly what Klopp wants to do. the players you want."
Hearing this, Yang Yang was delighted, "That means..."
"It's done!" Zheng Zhi nodded.
Yang Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
Zheng Zhi is absolutely capable of studying abroad. If he fails to make the trip due to other reasons, that is the biggest regret.
"Klopp is a very strong head coach, leading Mainz to upgrade, and he appreciates Zheng Zhi's type of player. He clearly told me that if I want to get him, it should be said that there is basically no problem." Bess laughed.
Yang Yang nodded, "But even so, you can't be careless. After returning to China, you must complete the transfer as soon as possible, and strive to complete the transfer during the winter break, follow Mainz for winter break training, and integrate into the team as soon as possible."
Zheng Zhi and Albes looked at each other and smiled again, feeling that Yang Yang was more anxious than him.
"Thank you." Zheng Zhi said gratefully.
