After Leaving the Sports Circle, I Became a Cooking God (Completed BL)

Chapter 243-244

What does it mean to rest for a few extra minutes after each training session? 

Zhang Jiale: QAQ......The coaches have specific schedules and precise timings for each training detail and rest period. He really hasn't been slacking off!

Poor Zhang Jiale felt very wronged, but even after hearing his explanation, his grandfather was still not quite satisfied.

Zhang Grandfather: "But your performance is not as good as Zhang Ziyi's. I think you should talk to your coach and ask him to increase your training requirements. You can't be worse in training than others!"

Zhang Jiale: "He feels unfairly treated. He's been training seriously."

It wasn't just Zhang Jiale. Even the composed Zhang Ziyi blushed in front of the camera when he received a call from his mother asking, "Do you like that girl, Yadan?"

"Still haven't told your mother? With the way you look, when training is over, you can't wait to stick to her. Yadan's parents are also in the live broadcast room. You're staring at her like that in front of her parents..." Zhang Ziyi's mother's voice contained amusement. When she noticed her son's growing affection for Yadan, she had already started getting friendly with Yadan's mother. Now, it felt like they were practically calling each other in-laws.

Zhang Ziyi silently covered his blazing face—He never imagined that his romantic interest or one-sided crush would be exposed to the entire nation during winter training.

The "Athletics Idol Training Camp" program's clever move by having the "Olympic Parents Observation Group" personally supervise the training sessions was initially expected to be entertaining. After all, it was amusing to have parents closely monitor the training. But when the program aired, the audience burst into laughter, finding it even funnier than expected.

【Breaking News! Grandfather Qiu scolds his grandson for being too foolish, claiming that watching Qiu Wen's running pace hurts his heart!】

【Breaking News Again!!! Zhang Jiale's grandfather lectures his grandson—look at you, resting for several minutes longer than others! So worthless!】

【Breaking News Yet Again!!! Zhang Shuai's romance exposed, is there a chance for the 400m sprint top couple to become a reality???】

This year's program recording didn't have much difference compared to last year, and they even removed the popular "top 5 competition" element from last year's show. Although they had the "Olympic Parents Observation Group" to fill in, some people were still worried about the program's effect before it was broadcast.

However, it turned out that the parents of the athletes in the 400m sprint event of the track and field team were all very interesting. They had the mindset of ordinary parents, watching their children train, similar to parents watching their high school students preparing for college entrance exams. Whether it was the children or the parents, they all felt very friendly and relatable when watching the show.

In addition to the "Olympic Parents Observation Group," the program was produced in deep collaboration with the sports channel. Since the show's format was all about "observation," they decided to invite two sports channel commentators, Shao Minyi and Li Sen, to the scene.

These two commentators joined the group of parent observers to watch various training sessions of the athletes and occasionally provide their commentary.

For example, they mentioned that Zhang Jiale had a slight issue with his rhythm control, but as an athlete with a non-traditional background who had only recently started formal sports training, he had shown remarkable talent and received recognition and trust from Coach Su Bai. However, they pointed out that he needed to work on his rhythm control. They even jokingly compared his rhythm control to that of Qiu Wen.
