Yangpu Xiaoyu won the all -round championship!She has an extra anticipation for the Paris Olympic Games ...

A few days ago, at the Ninth Asian Gymnastics Championships and the 2022 World Gymnastics Championship Qualification Tournament held in the capital of Qatar's capital, Yangpu Xiaoyan Zhang Jin won the women's all -around gold medal in one fell swoop, and at the same time won the bronze medal of balanced wood.

Zhang Jin, who has gone out of Yangpu Shao, has now become a 22 -year -old "veteran" who has become the national team. She is particularly eye -catching in this competition. There are many stories behind this.

Zhang Jin's hard work made her

Zhang Jin is a native Shanghai girl. At the age of 5, Yin Hua, the coach of Yangpu District, met her at a glance. Since then, the little girl with "the lower limbs is well -developed and flexible".

Yin Hua still clearly remembers his first meeting with Zhang Jin. That year, Yin Hua first went to the kindergarten to pick the little seedlings as coach Yangpu Shao. After the simple running ability test, Zhang Jin impressed Yin Hua. "Among the six or seven children in the same batch, her lower limb strength and flexibility are outstanding. I feel like a good seedling."

But the same, there are natural advantages, and there are also shortcomings in the eyes of professional coaches -such as insufficient shoulder toughness, lack of chest force, which makes Zhang Jin's difficulty in high and low bars. "The characteristics of this child are not much, but they are resolutely determined, and the training is very serious." Yin Hua said that although Zhang Jin was young, this child was trained every time he trained All work hard. She also intends to arrange more training for Zhang Jin -although the innate conditions are not outstanding, but the quality and training volume must be guaranteed. Although I was tired of practicing, "I don't want to practice" when I was coquettish, but the father's insistence and his mother's encouragement finally helped Zhang Jin persist.

In 2008, at the Shanghai Student Games, 8 -year -old Zhang Jin won two single gold medals and was among the Shanghai Second Team team. Since then, he has embarked on the road of professional training. At the age of 13, Zhang Jin was selected as the national team.

After arriving at the national team, the problem of weak upper limbs was enlarged again. Zhang Jin's congenital conditions are not very sharp than other national teammates. Yin Hua said: "This also means that in projects such as high and low bars, she has to work more than others." In nine years, from the fledgling teenager to the 2018 World Cup Gymnastics Germany Stugart Station won the world championship for the first time, and then the mainstay of the national team today, Zhang Jin's insistence has been rewarded.

There is an extra expectation for the Paris Olympics

Last year's Tokyo Olympic Games was the first Olympic trip to Zhang Jin. She and Tang Qianjing, Lu Yufei, and Ou Yushan formed a Chinese team to play in the gymnastics women's team and served as the captain.

At the Tokyo Olympic Games, Zhang Jin was selected to the battle lineup. Although in the end, in the gymnastics women's group competition, Zhang Jin, Tang Qianjing, Lu Yifei, and Ou Yushan only won the seventh place, but Zhang Jin's performance in the competition was remarkable, a smooth set of freedom, a set of smooth freedoms The performance was applauded by the audience.

Since entering the national team, Zhang Jin has left home and embarked on a professional path. Over the years, there have been more and more with their parents, and it is also rare to return to the younger school to see the enlightenment coach. But as long as there is a chance to meet, Zhang Jin will share the fun of the team with Yin Hua to exchange the status quo of each other's life.

In this Asian Gymnastics Championships, she is still the oldest player in the team. In accordance with the practice of the International Sports Federation, in the Paris Olympics cycle, new changes have taken place in the regulations of the gymnastics competition. As a veteran, you can face new challenges and move forward. It's commendable. Such achievements also made Zhang Jin look forward to the Paris Olympic Games.

Gymnastics has always been the brand project of Yangpu District Shao Sports. Zhang Jin, Yan Mingyong and other national team players come here, which also allows the gymnastics project to continue to be inherited and developed in this time. Yin Hua said that there are many children who are currently participating in "happy gymnastics", and many good seedlings have emerged. Cultivating the next Zhang Jin is also the expectation of Yin Hua and colleagues.
