American winner takes all

Chapter 106 Faster, Higher, Stronger (34)

"F**K!" Flea's face turned red and he sprinted forward, but his movement was hindered by the rope wrapped around his waist.

At the other end of the rope, a 12-inch-thick scrap American truck tire with a long nose was tied. Even a single tire weighed more than 120 pounds.

Not only the weight, but also the sideways tires will produce greater friction on the grassland, making it difficult for fleas that already have no body advantage to move forward.

As for the several team members who started running at the same time, they had already crossed the fifty-yard finish line, but Flea still stayed in place.

"This is not fair to me at all!" Flea looked at Ethan who was walking next to him and couldn't help complaining.

I feel that what I am good at is speed, so why should I compete with others for strength?

"The world is inherently unfair. Imagine that the tire behind you is the cornerback trying to tackle you." Ethan said mercilessly.Even fleas are considered his right-hand men.

To be precise, it is precisely because of his important status that Ethan will be more strict with him.

"Holy shit!" Flea dragged the tire behind her little by little.

Teammates also gathered around and kept cheering for Flea.

Flea closed her eyes, tried her best, and began to lean forward greatly, almost parallel to the ground, and her speed began to gradually increase.

After passing the most difficult initial stage, the heavy tires were dragged all the way by fleas, leaving deep marks on the ground. After crossing the key line, the whole person sat on the ground, gasping for air.

"Very good, the first group is finished, there are four more groups to go!" Ethan folded his arms and gave the order.

Several team members' faces turned green, and now they felt that Ethan was even more ruthless than Thomas.

During training, he simply didn't treat the players as human beings. Yesterday, a substitute player openly opposed Ethan, and then he was kicked out of the team without mercy by Ethan.

"The team is now built with me as the core. I shoulder the responsibility for victory and defeat. Accordingly, I will never allow anyone to hold everyone back." Ethan announced to everyone in an extremely domineering manner at the time.

As for Thomas, he was standing next to Ethan at the time, so he acquiesced in this behavior.

"Five sets means repeating five times?"

At this time, Xiao Lizi, who was standing on the edge of the crowd and watching everyone, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

These high school football players train harder than they think.

You must know that this is just one project. There are nearly 15 projects on each training day, and only one and a half days of rest are allowed per week.

Ethan also discovered that after the break, several team members seemed a little weak and unable to lift their spirits. The reason was very simple. Spending all day like this without seeing the dawn of victory would indeed quickly deplete one's enthusiasm.

Therefore, sometimes we need some relaxation sessions to adjust the atmosphere and allow everyone to firm up their goals.

"Leo, you don't just stand there and watch, you also need to participate!" Ethan said at this time.

"Me?" Xiao Lizi pointed at himself and immediately shook his head.

"I can't drag him." He admitted immediately. With his thin arms and thin legs, it was normal for him to be unable to drag him.

"For the sake of fairness, I won't let you drag the tires. How about just running back and forth 6 times for a total of [-] yards?" Ethan asked.

"Who am I going to compete with?" Xiao Lizi thought this was acceptable.

"Who do you think... you can compete with?" Ethan looked around.

The teammates smiled one after another. It can be said that rugby has brought together the best physiques among the boys in the school. Not to mention someone like Xiao Lizi, even athletes from other sports are barely interested.

Although rugby players do not run as fast as track and field players, although rugby players are no taller than basketball players, although rugby players do not have the stable and quick pitching ability of baseball players.

But rugby players are the most physically balanced category.

Ethan looked around and pointed at himself.

"How about you compete with me?"

Xiao Lizi has spent the whole morning in the training camp, but he has never seen Ethan take action and thinks he is just an ordinary assistant coach.

"If you play, I might win, no, it's a high probability!" It's not like he has no athletic ability at all. He played baseball when he was a child.

Soon the two were ready, and Ethan even picked the largest tire and tied the rope around his waist.

The duel between the two attracted everyone's attention, with Ford guest-starring as the starter.

Following the order, Xiao Lizi ran out quickly and immediately distanced himself from Ethan, but Ethan quickly caught up with him. After two turns back, Ethan established his advantage. When he turned back for the fourth time, Already far away from Little Li, in the last 50 yards, Ethan was far ahead.

"You..." Xiao Lizi gasped and stopped, shaking his head, looking a little unbelievable.

He didn't expect that Ethan was the fastest and strongest one.

The strength that Ethan showed once again shocked everyone, especially the players who had just experienced it personally. Only they can understand how much strength it takes to do all this.

"As for me, there is still a gap between me and NCAA and NFL athletes. This is the reality. You have to know how weak you are." Ethan picked up a clod of soil and crushed it in his hands. The soil crumbs flew away in the wind. scattered.

"This may be the treatment of the weak." Ethan dusted off his hands.

There is no doubt that Ethan played a very obvious role in taking the lead. After intuitively feeling the gap, the team members became more motivated, especially Flea.

At this time, Ethan was also sitting next to Xiao Lizi.

Only then did Ethan realize that this young man who had been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor had no airs.

"There are 1 actors in this world who work hard, and maybe only one lucky person can stand out. Only arrogant people will attribute all this to hard work. And I am not an arrogant person, so this is somewhat luck." Xiao Lizi has a very clear understanding of himself.

"I actually long for this kind of student life." He raised his hand to block the sun and looked at the people on the playground in the distance.

He is three years older than Ethan, and would normally be a sophomore in college, but he dropped out of middle school to pursue actors. "If you can play football and you're good at it, I can make you a high school student again," Ethan joked.

"As you said, I'll go practice now." Xiao Lizi smiled.

The two talked a lot, and most of the time it was Xiao Lizi who took the initiative to ask.

As for why, there's no doubt that Ethan has the kind of campus life he expected.Moreover, Ethan and Lisa have a very good relationship, and Xiao Lizi has also worked with Lisa for many years. It feels like they are brothers in the same discipline.

"I think I can get along with you." Xiao Lizi nodded.

"Leo, how many girlfriends have you had now?" Ethan suddenly asked at this time, of course he was curious.

According to statistics from authoritative foreign gossip websites, the 45-year-old Leonardo DiCaprio has dated 61 girlfriends (22 have not been confirmed by the parties, and the number has now climbed to 87). It is well known that the system will automatically delete his girlfriend as soon as she celebrates her 25th birthday. separate.

In fact, Xiao Lizi did fall in love with a woman who was older than him, and it was an older woman.The other person’s name is Demi Moore.

Xiao Lizi looked a little surprised when he heard Ethan's question.

"Why are you asking this?"

Ethan patted his knee: "Come on, you are so handsome, there must be many girls who like you, right? Let's hear it."

"Oh, I'm not as popular as a rugby player in school, you go ahead."

Ethan raised a middle finger.

Xiao Lizi made a V-sign.

"It seems that I have a slight lead, but I think you will overtake it soon, after all, you are in school." Xiao Lizi picked up a wisp of weeds.

"Tell me more about these two." Ethan leaned his elbows on the lawn, looking a little lazy.

As soon as the two hot-blooded young people chatted, they naturally became excited.

"The first one is my first love. She was in the same middle school as me. Her name is Cecilia Garcia. She has black curly hair and can speak fluent Spanish. At that time, she always shouted acaaca. ..." Xiao Lizi laughed.

This is an onomatopoeia, which can be understood as the sound of playing poker.

"What about the second one?"

"Heather Graham." DiCaprio continued.

Was she also raped by your boy?

"But I didn't spend the night with her. I was on the set of "Growing Pains" at the time, and she was also a guest star. When we left the set, naturally we broke up."

DiCaprio's current love story sounds monotonous and boring.

"You will miss them both." Ethan sat upright.

"why?"

"I think we can become very good friends." Ethan did not answer, but said to himself.

"You're right. In fact, life on the set is very monotonous. Apart from the female lead, there are almost no peers..." Xiao Lizi tried to say.

"That's good. I can take you to some high school party parties later, if you don't think those people are childish."

"Are there any cheerleaders?" Xiao Lizi immediately became interested.

"Who knows, if there is a chance, I will call them." Ethan said casually.

"Then it's settled. In return, I will also invite you to the party here." Xiao Lizi grinned.

The two young spies fist-bumped in the sunshine and reached the agreement of the century.

·
In a blink of an eye, training camp is coming to an end.

It was still the gym, Thomas was still weighing everyone, but the difference from before was that everyone was a lot bigger.

"Swan Davis, 185 pounds, a full gain of 30 pounds, congratulations!" Thomas squeezed Flea's shoulder.

"Robin Rice, 190 pounds, ho ho, your transformation is amazing!"

Compared with the previous one, Rice's facial skin is obviously rougher, his complexion is darker, his neck and arms also have scars from training, and there are a lot of calluses on his hands. He used to be a guy with oily hair and a pink face, but now he is more of a tough guy.It can be said that the whole person has undergone a radical transformation.

His change is the most obvious one.

This is inseparable from Ethan's supervision. In the first half month, Rice made countless excuses to quit. She called her mother crying in the middle of the night and yelled that she wanted to go home. She also had many calluses on her hands and feet. ,blister.

In the end, Ethan was forced to stay in the training camp.If it were Thomas, I would definitely let him run away.

Others have also changed to some extent, especially the forward players, who can be said to be stronger, with an average weight gain of 34 pounds, and more than 40 pounds.

The ones with the least obvious effect were Albato and Munster, two "asthma patients." These two people had started taking medication before, but they still gained more than 10 pounds.

Then it was Cooper's turn to weigh in.

"210 pounds, more than the previous Ethan, very good physical fitness!"

Cooper, who stepped off the weighing platform, raised his fist and felt excited. You must know that he is not like a flea. At this level, it is difficult to gain muscle. Cooper took some steroids and added a moment. It took hard practice without stopping to achieve this effect.

Then, everyone looked at the only one who hadn't been weighed yet...Ethan O'Connor.

When he took off his shirt and pants, someone couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice because Ethan's arms were obviously thicker.
