Chapter 564: Chapter 433 Coach Arrives_2
He had reached a critical point in the ratio of strength to body weight, one that he had now surpassed. Lifting a 35-pound item with 50 pounds of force versus 60 pounds of force is not simply an additive effect.
He had secretly tested it and his strength had reached a level where he could hang from the horizontal bar and rest. If he increased his grip strength, then his power could no longer be described as simply a matter of how many horizontal bars’ worth of force he had.
However, it still wasn’t enough. Relative strength was only good enough for him to control his own body and perform some exaggerated movements. Real rescue often involved combat with heavy objects, with the heavy bodies of unconscious victims, and even operating cumbersome equipment requires absolute power.
Rescue wouldn’t adjust the weight for him because he only weighed one hundred fifty pounds. The Olympics gave him a profound realization; the recognized human limit for deadlift is 500 kilograms, and the Olympic 85kg category clean and jerk can reach 220 kilograms. He could imagine how much of a lifeline he could create for someone trapped in a critical fire scene if he possessed such tremendous power along with corresponding agility.
His body’s limits definitely needed to go beyond this level.
Having surpassed the step of the martial arts competition, he was set to challenge the true limits of strength.
Training is endless.
Fang Huai walked ahead, his voice carrying back to them.
"This afternoon and evening, work well with handling the truck! Tomorrow, the three coaches are arriving. Some of the power moves and training methods, let the coaches adjust them for you properly!"
The team members behind him waved their hands dismissively upon hearing this.
"Hey, our Detachment has been doing this for the past two years. Every concentration training, we have coaches teaching us. They don’t know the drills, and after teaching us over and over, it’s the same old stuff, we’re sick of hearing it, we could go be competition coaches ourselves!"
Hearing this, Fang Huai stopped walking, turned back and chuckled.
"The coaches this time are different from those club and company coaches your Detachment used to hire! I paid for them myself, especially brought them over from Qinhuangdao, Hebei. They’re all national retired coaches from athletics and decathlon!"
"Two of them are still serving as consultants at the General Office’s training center, and each of their fees for a single visit is more than the combined yearly salaries of all nine of you!"
"Another one is Randy Huntington, the famous master track and field coach from the United States. I started contacting him since the beginning of August, and only now could we get him. The fee for bringing him over made even my dad scold me!"
"And for him, we even need to arrange a translator specially!"
"Let me tell you, the Southwest Training Class couldn’t afford these people with their funds."
"They’re here this time to adjust my power moves, you guys are getting lucky to learn together. If it weren’t for the fact that you were all here, benefiting more people, I wouldn’t even want to invite them myself! Please take it seriously, be humble, and learn well! The opportunity is rare!"
"If you have questions, ask proactively. Get as much as you can from them, and bring it back to your own Detachment, that way I can at least get my money’s worth!"
Wow...
Upon hearing this, the team felt a collective shiver down their spines.
What a tycoon!
Just as they reached the "Dream Life Column" at the Squadron, they couldn’t help but glance again at that "net worth" column that always amazed them.
Fang Huai: Not short on money.
Without realizing it, they had stumbled upon the root of economic class disparity in Western economics: Some people are more ruthless than they are, still climbing up using educational opportunities they could never have!
Was the gap between Fang Huai and them merely physical strength?
Dammit, it was also class!
Everyone clenched their fists tightly.
Fang Huai was right, for them, the opportunity was even more precious!
...
Half an hour later.
The Number 1 vehicle on the playground roared as two high-speed moving white water hoses came to an abrupt stop in front of the balance beam, then combined into one over the shoulders of two teams of "little blue men" and charged forward again.
"Shoot, the back needs to catch up!"
Tao Dongdong, one of the preliminary water gunners from the One Hundred Meters Ladder Attack Drill on the balance beam with the spray gun, yanked it forward, causing one of the hoses to suddenly slip out. The whole hose flailed like a panicking serpent, causing all four bridge crew members to fall off the bridge. freewёbnoνel.com
"Turn off the water, turn off the water!"
Before climbing the bridge, Fang Huai rushed forward two steps, grabbed the wildly swinging hose, and quickly turned to signal the driver.
As the sound subsided and the water turned to a trickle, those on the ground began to pick themselves up.
Fang Huai gasped for air before turning around and asking,
"Everyone okay?"
"We’re fine! Damn it, Tao Dongdong, you’re like someone on an aphrodisiac! What’s the rush? Fang Huai hasn’t even climbed up yet, how can you handle two hoses by yourself?"
"Right, you need to be steady when you climb the bridge!"
Tao Dongdong looked aggrieved, "Fang Huai told me to just go for it! I was trying to be quick! There’s that foreign coach coming tomorrow, right? We gotta look sharp!"
Fang Huai, also breathless, said, "Damn, you guys charged too damn fast! I laid out the hose and helped Number 2 get it straight. I didn’t realize you guys had already gone so far ahead!"
Liu Shoulin, the Number 2 gunner, responded,
"Fang Huai, actually, you don’t have to worry about us. Here, no one is a weakling. Your position is so important, in the middle of climbing the bridge and crossing the ground cage. There’s already a lot of pressure, and helping others might hold you back."
Fang Huai, having caught his breath, exhaled deeply, planted his hands on his hips, and nodded vigorously.
"I was worried I was going too fast, and you guys couldn’t keep up!"
