The hospital is too busy, so I'm going to join the army and become a top soldier!

Gao Zhenhai led Shen Yan back into the obstacle course.

This time, instead of demonstrating the whole thing, he broke down each obstacle and explained it in detail.

When they reached the three-step marker, Gao Zhenhai raised his foot and tapped the starting position.

"Don't just stare at the cones when you're running."

"Adjust your stride before entering the obstacle course and calculate your steps in advance."

When stepping on the stake, use the ball of your foot to quickly contact it, don't slam your whole foot down, otherwise the movement will be heavy and slow, and you'll easily lose your balance.

Shen Yan tried again.

The first time, the last step was still a bit crowded.

After Gao Zhenhai pointed out the problem, he took the initiative to adjust the distance of the penultimate step and started running again.

This time, I took three steps in a row, and the movements were noticeably smoother.

Upon reaching the trench, Gao Zhenhai reminded him again:

"Don't wait until you're at the edge of the ditch to decide whether to jump."

"The take-off point should be determined in advance, and you can jump directly there using inertia."

The more you stop at the last minute, the easier it is to fall into a ditch.

Shen Yan tried several times and quickly mastered the take-off distance.

Low walls require support and lateral movement, while high platforms require the approach run, take-off, board support, and leg hang to be combined into a complete movement.

A ladder cannot be pulled up by just the arms; it must utilize the swinging of the body and the forward momentum.

As for the log bridge, you should look further ahead.

The more you look down at your feet, the more likely your body is to sway.

When climbing over a high wall, you don't just lie on the wall and climb up. Instead, you need to push off the ground and swing your legs to move your hips and body weight together to climb over faster.

……

Shen Yan learns very quickly.

When he first climbed over the high wall, he still relied on his arms to pull himself up.

After being reminded by Gao Zhenhai a second time, he took the initiative to adjust his take-off position.

Use the push-off and leg swing to shift your center of gravity onto the top of the wall, while your arms are only responsible for support and direction control.

The whole movement became much easier.

Gao Zhenhai stood to the side, increasingly satisfied with what he saw.

What's most terrifying about this kid is never just his good physical condition.

Rather, it's that he can quickly understand why each action is done the way it is!

Others might fall several times while practicing the 400-meter obstacle course before they remember where to jump and where to pull back.

As long as Shen Yan explains the logic behind the movement to him, he can adjust it on his own next time.

This learning speed is something many soldiers cannot achieve!

This requires brainpower!

As Shen Yan was practicing repeatedly near the high wall, a figure sneaked over from the direction of the bombing range.

Wei Shanjia supported his right arm, which had just been reset, with his left hand, and stood beside the obstacle course for a while, his eyes gradually brightening.

He won't be able to practice bomb throwing for the time being.

Although the right shoulder has been repositioned, there are no problems with finger movement and peripheral sensation.

But whenever I swing my arm violently again, my arm still feels a little sore.

But this project is different.

It's only 400 meters in total!

I'm a sports student!

He couldn't outrun Shen Yan in weighted running, and he was temporarily outmatched by Shen Yan in grenade throwing, but he might not be incapable of events that required explosive power and coordination!

Wei Shanjia became increasingly eager to look at Gao Zhenhai, and finally couldn't resist moving closer to him.

"Old Gao."

"How about... I get a try too?"

Gao Zhenhai turned his head, his expression suddenly becoming somewhat strange.

"What did you say?"

I said let me run a lap too.

Wei Shanjia pointed to the obstacle course.

"Anyway, I can't throw a bomb now, so standing there watching is just a waste of time."

In all his years of leading troops, Gao Zhenhai has seen many new recruits who are afraid of the 400-meter obstacle course.

Many people swear they'll never touch it again after running it.

He'd hardly ever seen anyone volunteer to run!

Are you sure?

"Sure!"

Wei Shanjia patted his chest.

"It's only 400 meters in total, how difficult could it be?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Zhenhai's face immediately broke into a familiar smile.

Shen Yan had thought the same thing just now.

Very well, here comes another one who doesn't believe in superstition!

However, since Wei Shanjia's right shoulder had just been reset, Gao Zhenhai did not immediately agree, but instead turned to look at Shen Yan.

"Can he run with that arm?"

Shen Yan stepped forward and checked it again.

"Let him try, but don't pull hard with your right arm; try to use your left arm as much as possible."

"Stop if your shoulder hurts again or you experience limited mobility."

Wei Shanjia nodded quickly.

"OK!"

"I'll just give it a try, I definitely won't do anything reckless!"

Gao Zhenhai sneered.

He didn't believe a single word Wei Shanjia said!

"Okay, then give it a try."

"My only request of you is that you don't ruin your arms!"

Soon, Wei Shanjia stood on the starting line and stretched his legs.

Despite the obstacles ahead, he remained confident.

As soon as the command was given, the hidden athletic power within Wei Shanjia was unleashed.

He suddenly leaped out!

In the first hundred meters, he ran even faster than Shen Yan had just run.

Gao Zhenhai stood to the side, shaking his head helplessly.

Another one treating the 400-meter steeplechase like a 100-meter final!

After entering the obstacle course, Wei Shanjia relied on his strong physical fitness to cross the three-step stakes, cross the trenches, and climb over the low walls without slowing down.

But when they got to the high springboard diving platform, problems immediately arose.

To protect his right shoulder, he dared not use his right arm to support himself fully, and could only rely on his left arm and waist to compensate, making his movements instantly awkward.

He had finally climbed up the high board, and he had already wasted a lot of his energy.

Upon reaching the cloud ladder, Wei Shanjia felt a chill run down his spine.

He dared not exert force with his right shoulder, and his left arm could not support his entire body weight on its own, so he could only slow down and carefully pass through.

Fortunately, this guy has a really good physique.

Even with imperfect technique, he still relied on brute force to overcome each obstacle.

However, his speed noticeably slowed down during the turnaround phase.

Especially when crawling through the low stake net, Wei Shanjia, with his broad shoulders and thick back, looked like a large animal that had accidentally wandered into the barbed wire fence, and almost got stuck as soon as he went in.

He could only lower his body and move forward using both his hands and feet.

When he finally emerged from the other end of the low-pile net, his face was covered in dust.

Even as he jumped into the trench, Wei Shanjia remained extremely confident.

But once his feet touched the ground, he realized that his legs were starting to go weak.

On my first attempt, I couldn't even make it to the top!

Unconvinced, Wei Shanjia tried again, using the ditch wall as a foothold, before finally managing to wriggle out of the ditch in a sorry state.

The last five steps were even more awkward, with the rider staggering and falling.

The confident, high-spirited athlete who thought the 400-meter dash was nothing special has completely disappeared.

Instead, there was a terrible child, panting like a dog after being chased all the way!

In the final 100 meters, Wei Shanjia wanted to speed up.

But his mind gave the command to sprint, while his legs seemed disconnected from his body.

It won't obey commands at all!

He could only rely on his last bit of unwillingness to give up and grit his teeth to cross the finish line.

"Two minutes and forty seconds!"

After the results were announced, Wei Shanjia staggered forward a few steps and then collapsed to the ground.

He looked up at the sky, his chest heaving violently like a bellows, and he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand to wipe away the sweat.

Gao Zhenhai slowly walked to his side.

"How is it?"

"It's only 400 meters in total, is it difficult?"

Wei Shanjia opened his mouth, panted for a long time, and finally managed to squeeze out a sentence through his teeth.

"This thing..."

"How can it be even more dangerous than a five-kilometer run?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Zhenhai's smile widened even more.

"I'd rather run five kilometers than run four hundred meters!"

"How about it, our PE student comrade, how about another lap?"

Wei Shanjia lay on the ground and remained silent for two seconds.

"No need, I need to get some rest."

Wei Shanjia lay on the ground for a full two minutes before slowly supporting himself on his knees to stand up.

Shen Yan re-examined his right shoulder.

I was only slightly relieved after confirming that my shoulder joint had not been injured again.

"Your right shoulder has just been repositioned, so you can't practice the full 400-meter hurdles today."

"Let's start with exercises like the three-step stakes, trenches, balance beams, and low stake nets, which don't require a lot of force from the right arm."

Although Wei Shanjia was unwilling, he knew that he couldn't act recklessly in his current state.

"OK."

"Once my shoulder is better, I absolutely have to run for at least two minutes!"

Gao Zhenhai glanced at him.

"Don't brag yet."

"Two minutes and forty seconds is two minutes apart, and in between is you from just now!"

Wei Shanjia was immediately speechless.

Just then, another figure ran towards the bombing range.

When Ga Wa saw Wei Shanjia from afar, his face covered in dust and his uniform still stained with mud from under the low stake net, he immediately quickened his pace and approached.

"Hey friend, what's wrong with you?"

"I was looking at it from a distance and thought there was a cow rolling around on the ground!"

Wei Shanjia's face darkened.

"What kind of cow?"

"I'm running the 400-meter steeplechase!"

"A time of two minutes and forty seconds is already quite good for a first run!"

Ga Wa looked up at the obstacle course and then at Wei Shanjia's disheveled appearance.

"Is this all?"

"This is it!"

"Run there, then run back?"

"right!"

Ga Wa nodded thoughtfully.

"It doesn't look difficult."

Wei Shanjia's eyes lit up instantly.

That's how he got tricked!

Now, finally, another one has arrived who doesn't believe in superstition.

"right!"

"Super easy!"

"It's only 400 meters in total, run faster, it'll be over in no time!"

As Gao Zhenhai listened to Wei Shanjia earnestly trying to fool the little boy, his eye twitched involuntarily.

This guy is a real beast!

He had just gotten soaked in the rain, and then he turned around and started tearing other people's umbrellas!

He's really doing something inhuman!

However, Gao Zhenhai did not stop him, but looked at Ga Wa.

"Would you like to give it a try?"

The little boy nodded.

"Give it a try!"

"My arms are a bit sore from throwing grenades, so I'll just move around a bit."

After thinking about it, Gao Zhenhai agreed.

"Okay, let's warm up first."

"Don't focus on the time on your first run. Just memorize the movements and get through all the obstacles safely."

Gao Zhenhai demonstrated it to Gawa again.

However, this time, his speed was much slower than when he taught Shen Yan!

Clearly, he had used a bit too much force just now!

The little boy watched very attentively.

Soon, he stood at the starting point.

Gao Zhenhai raised his stopwatch.

"Ready!"

"start!"

The child's start wasn't particularly fast.

Compared to Shen Yan and Wei Shanjia, his first 100 meters seemed quite conservative.

Wei Shanjia stood to the side, shaking his head in disbelief.

"Too slow."

"If you don't run fast at the beginning, your performance will definitely be poor later on."

Gao Zhenhai glanced at him.

"You're fast ahead."

"Why did you get so exhausted at the end?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Shanjia immediately shut up.

Gawa quickly entered the obstacle course.

When he reached the three-step stake, his steps suddenly changed, the last few steps were noticeably shorter, and his center of gravity also lowered slightly.

After stepping onto the wooden stake, he didn't land with his whole foot, but instead quickly made contact with the ball of his foot, and his body sprang forward.

Pass in three consecutive steps.

Although the movements weren't exactly perfect, there were no noticeable pauses.

Gao Zhenhai's expression changed slightly.

This kid is pretty good. On his first run, he actually knew to adjust his stride in advance?

Immediately afterwards, Ga Wa arrived at the trench.

He didn't wait until he reached the edge to jump; instead, he pushed off the ground while still some distance from the edge of the ditch and leaped across it with a light, agile movement.

When scaling the low wall, he was not as strong as Shen Yan and Wei Shanjia, but he was very agile.

As soon as his palms braced against the wall, his waist and hips swung over, and he didn't slow down noticeably after landing.

When they reached the high springboard diving platform, Gawa's movements finally slowed down a bit.

Since it was his first time encountering such an obstacle, he didn't control his take-off position well.

I couldn't get my body up the board on my first try, so I had to try again.

But he quickly crossed the ladder and the log bridge that followed.

Especially the log bridge.

Ga Wa barely lowered his head, his arms outstretched naturally, and his steps were light and quick, and he ran across the bridge in just a few steps.

Gao Zhenhai became increasingly astonished.

"This kid has such good balance?"

Wei Shanjia was also somewhat bewildered.

Although I wasn't slow crossing the log bridge, I was still a bit cautious.

But Ga Wa seemed used to walking this kind of road.

When they reached the high wall, Ga Wa's body clung to the wall for a moment.

But he didn't panic. He quickly used his toes to brace himself against the wall and flipped himself over the top.

Low-pile netting is one of his strengths!

Gawa wasn't as strong as Wei Shanjia. He bent down, his elbows and knees moving quickly, and he slipped under the low net like an eel.

After turning back, although his speed also began to decrease, his movements did not completely change.

Even in the last hundred meters, Ga Wa still had the strength to accelerate!

Gao Zhenhai stared at the stopwatch, watching the numbers on it jump continuously.

As soon as Gawa crossed the finish line, he immediately pressed the timing button.

"Two minutes and twenty-nine seconds!"

Gao Zhenhai looked down and glanced at it again.

Did you pass?

And it was even a second faster than Shen Yan's first time?

Wei Shanjia stood to the side, his expression completely frozen.

I, a physical education student, ran for two minutes and forty seconds.

Ga Wa ran for two minutes and twenty-nine seconds on his first run?

"wrong!"

Wei Shanjia immediately tried to find an excuse for himself.

"I injured my right shoulder, so I dare not put any force on high boards, ladders, or high walls."

"If my shoulder were fine, I'd definitely be faster than him!"

Ga Wa, hunched over and catching his breath, nodded very seriously upon hearing this.

"That's right."

"If your shoulder hadn't been injured, you might have avoided rolling around in the trench a couple of times!"

Wei Shanjia's face immediately darkened further.

Gao Zhenhai ignored the two bickering and walked up to Ga Wa, asking in surprise:

"Have you trained before?"

No.

Ga Wa shook his head.

"Then how do you know to adjust your steps in advance? And aren't you afraid at all when crossing the log bridge?"

Ga Wa glanced back at the obstacle course, looking somewhat puzzled.

"Isn't this dangerous?"

"When I was a child, I herded sheep, and the roads on the mountain were much more difficult to travel than this."

In some places, there's a ditch below, and the rocks can even move. You can't keep looking down at your feet while walking, or you'll get more and more scared.

"And when it snows in autumn, the hillsides become especially slippery. The sheep run off without regard for people. If you can't catch up, the lead sheep will turn and all the sheep behind it will follow."

"Sometimes you have to step on stones, sometimes you have to jump over ditches, and sometimes you have to crawl under fallen trees."

After thinking for a moment, Ga Wa added:

"This log bridge is straight, and the ground underneath is flat. Sometimes the logs on the mountain are crooked, so it's much easier than herding sheep!"

Gao Zhenhai: "..."

Wei Shanjia: "..."

Shen Yan: "..."

Goodness, you've been doing obstacle course training since you were a kid!

Who can beat you?!
