Chapter 16 Preliminary Exam
After leaving the locker room, Jian Heng first went on the treadmill for about ten minutes, then did several sets of warm-ups. He spent about ten minutes in total, and after moving his body, he started today's training.
Jian Heng’s fitness method is no different from that of most people. Every time he goes to the gym, he focuses on practicing one to two muscles, divides the muscles in his body into six exercises, and just takes turns.
Today, Jian Heng’s plan is to train his legs. There are four movements in total, four to five sets of each movement, one set of twelve times, two leg kicks, one squat machine squat, and finally end today’s training with four sets of standard barbell squats.
After completing a set of kicks, Jian Heng's forehead began to sweat slightly, and gradually he felt the muscles in his legs began to become congested. Because he drank a glass of water when he came, Jian Heng began to feel his body changes after completing a set of movements. While smearing the sweat on his forehead, he felt whether there was anything special in his body.
"Nothing special!"
Jian Heng opened his fingers and gently patted and pinched his thighs, trying to feel the changes in his body. Now it has been almost forty minutes since he drank a glass of water. Judging from the results of the rabbit completing the reaction for three hours, Jian Heng now feels that he should feel a little.
After feeling it for about two minutes, Jian Heng found that he had no special feelings, so he had to stand up and prepare for the second set of movements.
After practicing the second set, Jian Heng walked towards the squat machine while wiping sweat. Who knew that after only two steps, he saw a fat man playing with his mobile phone while snatching the squat machine.
Just as Jian Heng wanted to turn around, the fat man leaned his body against the machine and continued to play with his phone. Seeing that he was not like he wanted to practice, Jian Heng walked forward.
"Hi, friend, do you use the squat machine?" Jian Heng reached out and shook his hand in front of the fat man's eyes, and said with a smile.
The fat man raised his head and glanced at Jian Heng and replied repeatedly: "Use it, use it!"
I heard that people want to use it, Jian Heng naturally had only one option left to walk away. This kind of thing is very common in the gym. People like Fatty are the most annoying. When they come to the gym, they take up a piece of equipment instead of fitness, as if they can reduce the meat by doing nothing.
For this situation, Jian Heng also has a backup plan. After turning his head and scanning, Jian Heng replaced the squat machine squat with a replacement Smith squat.
After the four sets of Smith squats were completed, Jian Heng's whole clothes were wet to his chest. When he got off the Smith machine, he looked up and saw the fat man still standing next to the squat machine and holding his cell phone. What he was like just now is still like now.
Since his body did not react, Jian Heng focused on training. When he came to the squat stand, Jian Heng adjusted his commonly used protective position, and then added 20 kilograms of barbell pieces on one side to warm up.
Because Jian Heng focuses on fitness and does not pursue any muscle latitude too much, his strength is not particularly great, but is better than normal people. If he is placed in the gym, almost half of the faces that often appear here are more than Jian Heng.
He stuck the shoulder guard on the bar, tightened his waist guard that he had just relaxed, and carried the barbell hard.
"Hiss!" Jian Heng waited for the barbell to get on his shoulders, and suddenly felt that the power was a little too lighter, and there was almost no weight on his shoulders.
As a regular gym, although I can't afford to hire a coach, I have been working for so long and know that this situation is too light, which is similar to the feeling of carrying an empty pole at the beginning. Weight like this can't warm up at all, let alone exercise.
Saw!
Jian Heng pushed the barbell back to the rack, added counterweights on both sides of the barbell, and first added five kilograms of tablets. Then he tried it and it was lighter. He replaced the five kilograms of tablets and added ten kilograms. Who knew that it was still a little lighter after putting on the shoulders.
After several debugging back and forth, when Jian Heng confirmed the weight, he found that the two ends of his barbell rack were now thirty kilograms, plus the twenty kilograms of the barbell rod were 80 kilograms. This weight was only three or four before Jian Heng did, let alone warm up.
Standing in front of the pole, Jian Heng hesitated for a moment, then felt his body, calmed down and felt this way, and then he realized that there seemed to be a special feeling in his body, which was very light, but Jian Heng still "catched" it.
This thing is not easy to describe. It is not suitable to say it is energetic, but it is not right to say it is brute force. After thinking for a while, Jian Heng felt that it seemed that the word "energy" was the most appropriate to describe it.
What is vitality? Jian Heng feels that it is not only about his own physical body, but also about a kind of spirituality. There is a kind of confidence that I can and can do. It seems that the cells in the body begin to "awake" one by one, putting his body in an excited state.
Let me put it this way, Jian Heng now feels like a loaded gun, and there is an inexplicable power hidden under his calm appearance.
As soon as I bent down, I carried the barbell on my shoulders, and after weighing it twice, I felt that this weight was similar to what I felt when I was warming up normally, so I squatted down in a "sitting" posture. After my whole body was completely squatting down, I exerted a light force and stood up again.
After doing this, a total of sixteen were done, and then Jian Heng put the bar back on the squat rack.
After untiing the waist protection on his waist and resting for about a minute and a half, Jian Heng felt that the feeling of "energy" in his body seemed to be getting stronger and stronger. The muscles of the entire legs seemed to have a different kind of heat. This heat was not the feeling of fatigue after exercise, but a kind of "joy".
He stomped his legs gently and rubbed the muscles on his legs. Jian Heng seemed to be able to feel the muscles he was moving were healing rapidly.
Fitness people understand that exercise is actually torn apart by making their muscles. When the body is waiting for the body to repair these damaged muscles, the body will not be the same. What it is, the fibers of the magical muscles will grow thicker, preventing the muscles from being damaged by such weight next time.
This is the principle of heavy weight exercise, constantly tearing the original muscles into thicker and larger muscles. This is the basic exercise method for so many "big muscle bulls" in the bodybuilding industry.
Now Jian Heng has such a special feeling, just like the muscles that have been trained on his legs are rapidly repairing quickly. After completing it, he found a signal to Jian Heng: Come on, I may bear a greater weight!
After re-installing the barbell, this time it increased by 100 kilograms. When Jian Heng carried the pole, he felt it was a little lighter. No matter what he said, it definitely did not reach his current maximum weight.
However, Jian Heng did not change it anymore. Now he is working in the group, not the maximum weight!
The standard free squats, the first group of sixteen, Jian Heng started with a very relaxed start, but after ten, he gradually started to struggle a little. When he reached the sixteenth place, he was not exhausted, but he was a little breathing. Although the feeling of this kind of stress was much worse than when he was heavy before, Jian Heng still felt it.
Putting the barbell and letting go of the waist protection, Jian Heng quietly felt the muscles in his legs.
This time, Jian Heng felt that the vitality just now was even stronger, and the muscles in his legs were repaired faster than the previous one. Within two or three minutes after Jian Heng stopped, the muscles in his legs seemed to repair the muscles he had just been damaged. Now Jian Heng has a process like the muscles from soreness to recovery after he completed heavy weight training.
This feeling is like a blow to a dose of magic oil for fitness people. The guy directly urged Jian Heng to smile, and the corners of his mouth were almost to the back of his head.
He directly changed the barbell weight to 130 kilograms, which is about 1.5 times his weight. Jian Heng continued to play.
This time Jian Heng did not have the last glory. The original sixteen standard squats were not completed. He only did ten. When the eleventh squat was squatted, his legs trembled a little when he squatted again.
The barbell rack was put back again, let go of the waist protection, and rested for about three minutes. While waiting for the vitality to fill his body again, Jian Heng once again carried a 130-kilogram bar.
And this time, Jian Heng did eighteen standard squats, and the twenty only felt exhausted.
Chapter completed!
