I practiced in the United States

Chapter 7 Large Body Care



Sheila noticed that many places on Li Ang's exposed skin were slightly red. Based on her experience in the industry, it was easy to tell that Li Ang's training volume was very large.

Hearing Sheila's question, Li Ang had no intention of hiding anything and communicated with her about his training plan these days, including practicing Tongbei Fist.

The reason for doing this is also to provide a psychological foreshadowing for those who are familiar with him. After all, his body is getting stronger every day.

What surprised him was that Sheila was not surprised that he learned traditional martial arts.

What Li Ang didn't know was that in the United States, the number of people learning traditional martial arts was quite large.

If we look at it in terms of population ratio, it is far beyond the domestic level.

In this regard, Sheila just suggested that he find a professional martial arts coach, which would save him many detours in his learning and help him improve his basic skills.

Although Li Ang expressed his affirmation verbally, he had no intention of finding a coach.

Having an excellent master beside him can indeed make his learning progress faster, but it will not make any qualitative change.

Because he has a skill panel, every time he practices, he can judge whether his movements are standard based on his increased proficiency.

After the skill level is improved, you will also gain a lot of related skills and experience.

Therefore, spending a lot of money to find a master is not very cost-effective for him.

Li Ang's beef stewed with tomatoes and potatoes is quite soft and delicious. Except for the color, the aroma and taste are impeccable.

Because there was no rice in Sheela's house, Li Ang could only make do with a few pieces of bread.

"Don't you want some staple food?"

"I usually control my carbohydrate intake for dinner, and obviously the potatoes here are enough."

Li Ang nodded. Everyone's dietary needs are indeed different. It's no wonder that she can maintain such a good figure.

Silla picked up a tissue and wiped her mouth gracefully, then looked at Li Ang and said with a smile:

"Actually, I need some protein."

"Well, you're right, protein is absolutely essential for fitness."

Without raising his head, Li Ang took half a piece of bread and dipped the last bit of broth in the pot.

"Okay, after eating, let's move on to the next step."

Silla stood up, her height of 1.7 meters combined with her figure and clothes were quite impactful.

"Huh? What's next?"

Li Ang was a little confused.

"Just listen to me. I guarantee that your body will be very relaxed."

Silla’s speech was not fast, but it revealed an undoubted flavor.

"Now, take off your top and lie down on the yoga mat."

Li Ang: "Ah? Is it a little too fast?"

"After all, I just finished eating."

Silla smiled charmingly and replied:

"No problem, you don't need to move."

Li Ang felt a little hesitant in his heart, but his body was still very honest. He obediently took off his shirt, revealing his lean body, and lay on the yoga mat.

"Give me a moment."

After speaking, Silla twisted her waist and walked into another room.

Li Ang looked at the various props she took out, grinning from ear to ear.

He was a little confused, but he didn't have the nerve to ask.

It wasn't until Silla's warm palms, mixed with essential oils, were massaging on his body that Li Ang realized that he had paid for it in vain after all.

"Is this ice cubes? And hot towels?"

"Ice compresses and hot compresses need to be tailored to different conditions of the body. Generally speaking, for freshly caused sports injuries, using ice compresses can reduce capillary bleeding."

"For longer bruises and sprains, hot compresses can be used to dilate capillaries and promote blood circulation."

Silla kept her hands on her hands and answered in her mouth.

She seemed to suddenly think of something, stopped what she was doing, and said with some stumbling:

"You have a word in Chinese medicine called promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and that's what it means."

Li Ang said with a contented expression:

"I didn't expect you to study Chinese medicine."

"Of course. In fact, a lot of knowledge in traditional Chinese medicine is of great help to sports rehabilitation."

Silla said with some pride while picking up the essential oil just now.

"This is what I bought from China."

After hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

After a complete set of care, Li Ang's body felt comfortable, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He was thinking:

"After this set of massages, 298 shouldn't be too much. Well, for Americans, add another 100."

Li Ang glanced at Silla's figure who turned around, and silently raised the price by another hundred.

After thinking about the little money left in his pocket, Li Ang couldn't help but shook his head. He really couldn't afford it, let alone the clock.

He had no choice but to express his gratitude verbally.

After returning home in the evening, Li Ang had a midnight snack with the remaining pot of beef at home and the rice that had been kept warm in the rice cooker until it was almost dry.

[Breakthrough point +0.05]

In the past, when he ate something at night, he had to consider whether he felt guilty or whether he would gain weight.

Now he just eats whenever he has time, and his main thing is to do whatever he wants.

The growth of his physique also increased his basal metabolic rate a lot. Coupled with the high-intensity exercise, he was not used to eating less every day.

The next morning, facing the rising sun, Li Ang stretched his body and stretched his muscles.

All parts of his body were sore to varying degrees, but they were still within the acceptable range.

He estimated that one reason was that his physique had become stronger and he had gradually adapted to exercise, so the sequelae of high-intensity exercise would be less.

Another reason was that thanks to Xila's help yesterday, the effect was quite significant, but unfortunately he still couldn't afford it at the moment.

He casually checked on the Internet and found that it would cost hundreds of dollars to repair a water pipe at home, not to mention this kind of professional health care service.

The labor cost in the United States is really very high.

After simply completing the daily warm-up activities, Li Ang did not go out for a bike ride or jogging as usual, but chose to continue practicing the training method of Tongbeiquan [Xiao Lianshou].

After practicing for most of the day yesterday, he found that his [Physical Fitness] increased from 9.88 to 10.03, an increase of 0.15 year-on-year.

And the physical fitness he gained in the previous two days according to his own training method was about 0.22.

It doesn't seem much, but you have to know that Li Ang has not yet gotten started with this action.

So far, Li Ang can finally take off his glasses.

Cycling and running are two skills that have reached [proficiency], so from this point of view, the gap is completely within an acceptable range.

Li Ang even estimated that as long as this training method reaches the [entry] level, the training effect will not be inferior to these two skills.
