Old~

Tonight, i went to help my coach train juniors again. Actually, i seem like helping but the real thing is i went there to play around and meet friends. XD Today, something special happened. Instead of training my juniors, i was trained by my coach instead...

We did "double agility", its something simple where the pair of partner will need to run to return the shuttle. Coach will be feeding the shuttle and the shuttle will be infinite until the pair give up. When i say give up it means "Pam Chet". When the drill start, the shuttle will fly around the court and this test the teamwork, stamina, muscle endurance and also the will to go on. It seems easy but if u go for it u will know...

I remember last time when i was fitter we were able to do around 15 to 30 mins without stopping unless the people collecting the shuttle is too slow. Means shuttle finish then got time to rest until the shuttle are reloaded again. Normally the resting time is few seconds only. Tonight, i thought is gonna be easy for us because we are seniors so the coach will go easy on us. Who knows? Instead of going easy on us, coach trained us like last time. The speed and the accuracy of the shuttle given are way harder than those given to the juniors.

We didn’t last long during the first drill. Around 5 mins and we are done... My legs were unable to move. They (my legs) were too tired, no more endurance. Then i finally realized that i become old already. Not as fit as few years ago and my leg muscle dont have the power already. After resting for awhile, we decided to give it another try. When i say we, it means me and my partner. The reason we gave another try is not because me are hardworking. But we just want to save our face back as SENIORS...

This time i will "pia" until i really out of breath or my leg completely can’t move. We go on and on for around 7 to 10 mins. Then KO. Knock Out! I lay on the floor just outside the court where i missed the last shuttle and my partner Lai also half dead in the court. Well, at least we tried our best. It really is tiring. I bet tonight i will have a really good night sleep. Just now when i reached home, i walk upstairs also can feel the tension on my legs. Seems tonight's training is worth it after all. Haha...

I admit old liao... No more muscle that i used to be proud of and no more stamina to go for a serious double game. Hope can get back those that i lost in the coming holidays... But until then ,.... I really admit OLD liao.... Need rest

Don't laugh at an old man pls.... The one who reading this post are young either.... XD
