Chapter 468 - 330: The Upcoming Training Camp and Rapid Attribute Advancement

"This is the venue for your training camp starting tomorrow. Are you satisfied with the space?"

Jiang Yuan asked cautiously.

His attitude now was completely different from six months ago.

Six months ago, when he met Wang Ye, he had a somewhat arrogant demeanor, even with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, looking like a hooligan. But now he treated Wang Ye with complete respect, like a subordinate.

Wang Ye nodded and asked, "Not bad. How many athletes will be present then?"

"Currently, we’ve tentatively set it at fifty-one," Jiang Yuan replied.

Wang Ye frowned slightly, "Fifty-one? That’s a bit crowded."

Jiang Yuan responded with a bitter smile, "This is already the result of our careful selection. Upon hearing you were coming for the training camp, all our team’s athletes wanted to enroll. But your energy is limited. We can’t arrange for over a hundred people to participate at once. So, after some internal discussion, we ranked them based on performance. The top performers in the competitions are in the first batch, which is joining this training camp, and the others are arranged into the second and third batches for future sessions when you return."

"This arrangement is reasonable." Wang Ye nodded. Having over a hundred people at once would indeed be overwhelming, and he did plan to come back for the second and third rounds of training camps.

"As long as you’re satisfied. Later, I’ll give you the list of participants for this session, along with their projects, achievements, ages, and physical data. You can just look it over; there’s no need to memorize everything," Jiang Yuan said standing by Wang Ye’s side.

Wang Ye nodded without saying another word, just observing the training field ahead.

This was a very spacious training ground, mainly covered with green plastic mats,

where you could see equipment for activities like long jump, high jump, and shot put scattered throughout,

and also some barbells and dumbbells. Although the track and field team doesn’t include weightlifting, as a foundational training activity, many athletes from other disciplines use weightlifting to enhance their abilities, especially shot put athletes who really need barbells to improve thrust. So, barbells are absolutely indispensable in the training base.

A red plastic track also ran around the outer edge, looking very suitable for track and field training. Although it was indoors, the air circulated very well, with sunlight streaming in through the windows.

Even when dozens of athletes were training intensely here, exhaling a lot of warm air, it wouldn’t feel stuffy as there were numerous large fans and air conditioners to regulate the temperature.

Overall, while all the equipment and auxiliary tools looked somewhat old and even cheap, combined, they provided very comprehensive support to the athletes training here.

Therefore, many local athletes, whether at the national or provincial level, would often come here to train.

However, now that Wang Ye was about to hold a training camp here, during this period, outsiders were not allowed in, and only the national track and field team members attending the training camp could enter this training base.

Wang Ye made a round along the track, then moved the scattered equipment to other open spaces. In no time, he created a space sufficient for fifty athletes to freely engage in training,

He did not intend for the athletes attending the camp to follow him in equipment training or physical fitness exercises. Although he understood these things, they were too inefficient to practice, especially for these athletes who train professionally every day. For them, ordinary strength and endurance training almost had no effect anymore.

So Wang Ye planned to have them train in Tai Chi.

Yes, Tai Chi.

Through Wang Ye’s testing, the extraordinary nature of Tai Chi could significantly enhance a person’s athletic performance in a short time, whether ordinary people or athletes. Although athletes physically exceed ordinary people several times over, they have never practiced any cultivation techniques involving Primordial Qi. So, for them, Primordial Qi is a completely new system,

When a person is exposed to an entirely new system, they often experience something called the "beginner’s benefit period." Many may find in life that their progress is particularly fast when they first encounter a field, even causing them to mistakenly believe they’re a genius. This is the "beginner’s benefit period," but it generally lasts only between half a year to a year. After a year, the benefits of this period gradually fade, returning to normal progress speed.

Wang Ye intended to take advantage of this beginner’s benefit period,

to achieve breakthroughs in the overall performance of the track and field team athletes.

At the same time, he was also prepared to impart some of his personal athletic experiences to them,

such as running techniques surpassing the current peak human technological levels. There was also the Light Body Technique, which could significantly improve high jump and long jump performance. But these trainings did not require equipment.

Therefore, Wang Ye moved the equipment aside, leaving a clear space to accommodate over fifty athletes.

At this time, Jiang Yuan beside him was watching in puzzlement,

Why did Wang Ye move away the equipment upon arrival, leaving only an open space?

Could it be that Wang Ye wanted the athletes to train without using equipment, rather than with it?

It should be known that the mainstream scientific training method nowadays still involves progressive overload weight training with barbells. Very few top athletes would still train barehanded.
