But as athletes, high -intensity strenuous exercise, jumping, and changing direction, she can't do it.

Zhang Changning said in the text: "From the age of 8 to 27, for nearly 20 years, the body's strain and injury have gradually reflected with the age. The parts of the body's parts have more or less problems. After knee surgery, all aspects of the knee surgery have recovered well, but there will still be effusion after a long time or exercise. There is not enough attention behind the feet. So far, there is a free bone in the left ankle; the tendon on the right shoulder gauge has always been damaged, and the full warm -up and the maintenance of strength are indispensable. The problem ... "

Zhang Changning said that during the national team, he has been taboo to mention his injuries and does not want objective factors to affect himself. Now it is not a tragic selling, but after experiencing the situation in 2018, he knows that he feels uncomfortable. "Compared to the pain of injuries, I am more afraid of the kind of weakness I want to do. No matter from the body and psychology, I can’t reach the level of the national team now ..."

Zhang Changning also said that the trouble of injuries has always been the greatest enemy of athletes. The athletes are very hard and very difficult. I hope that the outside world can give them a little more tolerant, less doubt, a little more encouragement, and less complaints to make the strongest backing when they are competing for the country.
