I practiced in the United States

For Li Ang now, cycling is just one of the ways to become stronger. He also has tasks such as Tongbeiquan and running. It is impossible to spend all his time on these.

Time is so precious, let alone spending it on useless social activities.

He thought very clearly that the essence of any social interaction is nothing more than the exchange of value.

His current strength is still relatively limited. Even if he licks his face to meet a few great people, they will not take him seriously.

With this time and energy, it is better to use it to improve himself. When he becomes stronger, he does not need to take the initiative. Every day, people will want to treat him to a meal and rush to give him money.

The first thing Li Ang did after returning home was to practice Tongbeiquan. He really wanted to know how much more efficient it would be to practice systematically compared to his own randomly planned exercises.

It was originally a boring boxing method, but after mastering it, you can also see that your physical fitness is constantly improving with practice, so the motivation to practice is simply too strong.

Except for a break during the afternoon tea time, Li Ang almost never stopped.

Exercise is addictive, and the endorphins secreted by the body make him seem to have regained the joy of playing games in his childhood.

At sunset, Li Ang finally stopped. He had sensed that his current physical condition was no longer suitable for practicing.

Although his current physical fitness is quite good among his peers, nearly four hours of training still exhausted him.

He opened his attribute panel to check the results of his efforts today.

Name: Li Ang

Strength: 8.00 (+0.03)

Constance: 10.41 (+0.16)

Reaction: 10.33 (+0.01)

Spirit: 13.60

Breakthrough point: 0.12

Skills:

[Cycling] 241/400 (Mastery)

(Features: Lower limb strength and endurance increased by 20%)

[Running] 16/200 (Proficiency)

(Features: Lung capacity increased by 10%)

[Tongbeiquan] 60/100 (Beginner)

What surprised him most was that his [Constance] actually increased by 0.16 in just one afternoon.

You should know that he only increased about 0.22 after exercising for a whole day before. In this way, his exercise efficiency has increased by about 50%.

This is not a small improvement. Compared with talent, this is definitely an insurmountable gap between geniuses and ordinary people.

In terms of strength, it still increased very little, which Li Ang can understand.

It is not easy to improve this aspect by bodyweight training alone. If you want to see quick results, you still have to use heavy weights to stimulate your muscles.

Just like some bloggers who really only do street fitness, they may have a strong body, but they definitely don’t have large-dimension muscles.

In addition, in addition to increasing muscle mass, another way to increase your strength is to improve your neural recruitment ability.

If muscle mass is equal to your absolute strength, then neural recruitment ability is your performance efficiency. The result of multiplying the two is the power you can finally exert.

At the same time, training in this aspect is more complicated.

Slow training, isometric contraction training, explosive training, functional training, and heavy weight training can all improve neural recruitment ability.

Like the Tongbeiquan that Li Ang is practicing now, it is one of them.

Still, all these breakthrough points are added to [spirit]. Although [spirit] cannot be seen or touched, in fact, it can affect all aspects of life.

In addition to improving his comprehension when practicing martial arts, his memory, thinking speed, and even daily energy will be improved to a certain extent.

There was no training at night, but Li Ang did not waste this time. Instead, he studied various martial arts theories and physiological knowledge.

For ordinary people, they would definitely find these things boring and incomprehensible. Even if they understood them, they would find them useless.

But for Li Ang now, what he experienced was different.

To describe it in simple and easy-to-understand words, he is now like a person who has opened his mind.

He can understand those complex terminology explanations at a glance, and even understand them.

He can form a system in his mind for some scattered knowledge.

Even some mysterious terms, he can connect the context and guess the general idea.

In fact, most people are willing to learn this kind of easy and useful learning.

It's just that most people don't have such ability.

Li Ang suspects that if he had such a brain when he took the college entrance examination, he could have made a push for Tsinghua University and Peking University.

In the extremely dedicated and hearty study, time unknowingly came to the late night.

Li Ang stood up and tried to pour himself a glass of water, but he reached it twice before he could reach it. He closed his eyes and remained silent for two seconds before he realized that he was a little dazzled.

His [spirit] was indeed stronger, but the power consumption of his brain was also further increased. He had to be more careful in the future and consider whether his body could bear it.

Before going to bed, Li Ang glanced at his panel and was surprised to find that his [spirit] had increased by 0.08.

Although compared with his physical fitness, the improvement

Not too much, but at least he found out that if he could improve his spirit through training, it would be high-intensity consumption, squeezing his spirit.

On the afternoon of the third day, Li Ang's [Tongbei Quan] finally got the upgrade to the next stage as he wished.

He was also a little curious about what characteristics the skilled level [Tongbei Quan] would have.

[Tongbei Quan] 1/200 (skilled)

(Characteristics: reaction and nerve recruitment ability increased by 10%)

For the increase of these two attributes, Li Ang was quite satisfied, after all, these two attributes were quite difficult to improve.

At the same time, it can be seen that the characteristics added by Tongbei Quan were completely born for actual combat.

In the next few days, Li Ang started a fairly regular life again.

In the morning, he trained with Eric on road bikes, practiced Tongbei Quan in the afternoon, and studied theoretical knowledge in the evening, mixed with some strength training such as push-ups and squats.

In the middle, Charles found him twice, once to help Uncle Wilson at his house, and once to go to the supermarket in the town.

He went to Uncle Wilson's house to help, but declined the tip he gave.

From the repeated labor, he roughly judged that Uncle Wilson didn't really need help, but just wanted to provide them with a job similar to work-study.

He kept this care in mind, but now that he knew it, he was embarrassed to go again.

As for the part-time job in the supermarket introduced by Charles, Li Ang refused without thinking.

He is not at the end of his rope yet. Even if he really can't take out the money, he has more ways to make money faster. Working in the supermarket is a waste of life.

A regular life often causes time to pass quickly. In a blink of an eye, it is the eve of the bicycle race.
