He proved that practicing boxing can be both

Penghu's father is a fighting fan and often stays on various fighting programs when watching TV at home. Peng Hu started watching "Kunlun Fight" and "Wulin Feng" since elementary school, as well as various boxing champion competitions. Penghu decided to practice boxing, and at first only his father supported him. "My mother and the older generation were worried, for fear that I would affect my studies and be injured."

At that time, his hometown Hengshan County, Hengyang City did not have a professional boxing club, so Penghu could only practice in the gym. After returning home, he looked for teaching videos online and continued to study and think about it. In his opinion, this kind of self-study is far from being "achieved". "At most, it is laying a better physical foundation."

"My father said that if you want to learn boxing, you have to go to Changsha." Peng Hu has been among the best in his childhood. In order to realize his dream, he was admitted to Hunan Normal University Affiliated High School, one of the "four famous schools" in Hunan in 2019, and finally had the opportunity to receive systematic boxing training. When he first entered the Changsha Master Boxing Training Camp, Penghu often practiced alone. He was not talkative at a young age, but he was focused and hard at the practice, which attracted the attention of director Hu Jin. From being guided from time to time to officially becoming a disciple of the vice chairman of the Changsha Boxing Association, Peng Hu bluntly said that he was very lucky.

Penghu is a student living in the school. The boxing gym training is arranged for two days on weekends. He participates in the competition whenever he has the chance. He always signs up for adults. "Except for losing the first time, he won the championship afterwards." From Monday to Friday, Penghu was in school while using the morning self-study and lunch break to train. He applied to the school for martial arts classroom as a training ground, using dumbbells, skipping rope and and other equipment to maintain physical fitness and practice basic skills. What’s even more rare is that he is still a “school master” when entering a key high school.

Everyone around you knows that Penghu is practicing boxing. The head teacher Luo Yi and the teachers of various subjects not only did not let him "use his time to study", but instead gave him a lot of support. Seeing such a role model of cultural and sports blossoming around me, the students also "a little admired" Peng Hu.

The little boy also understands that if he wants to walk further with his legs, he must avoid injuries, which is also his guarantee with his family. "I let them see that they have achieved results in both study and boxing, and they have not suffered serious injuries. I gradually felt relieved."

Understanding

Exercise is equivalent to charging the body and replenishing energy

Entering the third year of high school. Penghu's daily life has not changed much, "it is just that the arrangement is more compact." He is very clear about the importance of the college entrance examination to life, so he did not relax in his studies at all. When practicing boxing, you should not give up easily.

In order to continue to take into account both sides. He got up at 5:40 in the morning, one hour earlier than other students - running and practicing special activities, and then entered the classroom on time at 7:15 to morning self-study . At noon, Penghu eats faster than others, walks and trots, and takes a nap short to half an hour, "If this happens, you can squeeze out forty or fifty minutes to practice boxing."He told the Beijing News reporter that such a busy and fast-paced life will not only not make him tired, but on the contrary, I feel very efficient every day. "In order to ensure the time of practicing boxing, I will devote myself to my studies more seriously. "

Penghu achieved a win-win situation in the examination hall and the arena, which attracted widespread attention. Local media reports said that he "takes time" to participate in the competition before the college entrance examination. The boy himself confirmed to the Beijing News reporter: "It can be said that. After all, during the critical stage of sprinting, I will not go to class during the day to prepare for the battle. "From another perspective, there is only more than half a month before the college entrance examination. He still has the time and energy to go to the boxing gym for practical training during his weekends while studying, and becomes the winner in the ring, which fully demonstrates the power of sports.

In response to this, the famous media person Bai Yansong commented: "This also reminds many students and teachers that sports and learning are definitely a virtuous cycle. As some teachers once said, the more often the children you see on the playground, the better the grades. "Peng Hu deeply agrees: he understands that learning should be put first in the present, and sports are as indispensable in his life as eating and sleeping. "Some people will ask, is it better to take out the exercise time for learning? I don't particularly agree. Everyone needs to relax so that they can better devote themselves to their studies, just like they have to rest every day, which is to recharge and replenish energy for the body. "

provides space for students' all-round development, and is also a tradition in Hunan Normal University's Affiliated High School. Here, there are physical education classes and weekend breaks, so that children can temporarily get out of the test paper pile, so that they can accumulate energy after buffering. Many students in Penghu not only study well, but also have achieved some achievements in clothing design, painting, performance and other talents.

Future

No matter which way they take, they must apply for the country

After the college entrance examination is over Penghu resumed boxing training, and even practiced for four or five hours a day, without any anxiety before scores. When asked if he was "the confidence of a top student", he smiled embarrassedly. But the young man felt confident of his efforts. So when 638 points were placed in front of him, he could steadily enter the boxing gym to prepare for the competition and gain a refreshing victory in the ring. With good results in

, Penghu was one step closer to his goal of going to Beijing to go to university. He applied for the psychology major at Beijing Normal University, and looked forward to taking a higher level on the road of boxing: "I want to join the M23 team, the 'Dream Team' of Chinese boxing. "The biggest reason for having such a dream is naturally " gold belt " Xu Can . Peng Hu knew the game and documentary of this boxing champion, and was deeply impressed by his basic skills and tenacious style. What touched the young man the most was Xu Can's restrainedness in his words and doing more, "I also want to be a down-to-earth person like him. "

Penghu is friends with many professional boxers. He understands that more sweat is needed to play professional games and overcome more difficulties. He has also experienced the feeling of losing weight for participating in the competition: he is so hungry that he is floating under his feet, dehydration is like taking off a layer of skin, and training cannot be stopped. "Even so, I still want to try it out and try it out. Even if I don't succeed, I won't regret it. "

Recently, Penghu began to pay attention to mixed martial arts . The star of the famous Asian sports IP-ONE championship game Tang Kai is a Hunan player. He will challenge the world championship title for the first time at the end of August. Penghu is very much looking forward to the victory of his fellow villagers. He also hopes that he can try more fighting skills with the opportunity.

is about to enter university, and Penghu will still insist on taking into account both academic and boxing. "I want to go to Beijing because of the good educational resources, and continue to improve my studies and improve myself in all aspects. "The young man said firmly that no matter which path he will take in the future, he must serve the country and become a useful person to society.
