She was once affectionately called "big baby" by everyone.

is also the "inside tank, female version of O'Neal" of the Chinese women's basketball team.

has super dominance under the basket.

With her performance on the field, everyone felt that it was a foregone conclusion to advance to the national team.

However, things went against her expectations and she lost to the national team of the women's basketball team.

After that, he went to the United States for training at his own expense.

Then what kind of legendary career did she have?

What about her now who was out of the national team?

The early journey of "big baby"

When talking about the recent women's basketball team, we have to mention a person.

That is Liu Yutong, who is two meters tall and weighs more than 200.

Such body advantages have absolute dominance in the inside.

was once a nightmare for countless opponents, especially in the Universiade.

Returning to him with his own way is so desperate that the Japanese team is fighting.

In fact, in the early days, Liu Yutong did not train her in this way.

instead embark on the road of literature and art just as most families expect from their daughters.

Then why did she finally take this path?

Liu Yutong was born in a basketball family in Harbin in 2001.

Why is it said to be a basketball family? Because her parents, including grandparents, uncles and aunts, all of them have been engaged in the basketball industry.

Moreover, her grandfather is a national first-class coach, while her father and uncle are from the former provincial team.

At first, my family wanted to cultivate her art, and she did not disappoint her parents' expectations.

He is also a talented person in art. Not only does he reach the amateur level 10 in piano, but he can do all kinds of ballet Latin dance.

But as she grew older, the genes of her basketball family began to gradually emerge.

Her height and weight have increased rapidly, and she is taller than high school students in junior high school.

The complete innate basketball holy body, so she embarked on the road of basketball.

When she was in junior high school, she reached the national junior high school basketball final with the women's basketball team of Tsinghua High School.

Although she lost, her talent in basketball is unquestionable. After that, he started studying at the School of Physical Education and Sports at Beijing Normal University.

and joined the school team and competed with the Beijing Normal University Women's Basketball Team to the battlefield of the College Basketball League.

The female version of "O'Neal"

While being in the school team, she exuded her strong dominance in the inside with an absolute advantage.

helped the team win the seventh championship in the history of Beijing Normal University women's basketball.

But this was just the beginning, and later she was like a god-assisted Beijing Normal University to win three consecutive championships. After

, he was signed by Shanxi Women's Basketball League after competing in the First Division of the Chinese Women's Basketball League.

and both performed well, and at the age of 16, she was selected for the National Youth Women's Basketball Team.

competed in the Asian Youth Arena, and her many outstanding performances on the field made her known by the official website as "China's Energy Tower".

The most exciting thing is the excellent performance against the Japanese team at the Chengdu Universiade.

At that time, Liu Yutong played as a substitute, and she played so wonderfully and relievedly.

At that time, the Chinese team was biased towards offense, so they had no advantage in terms of body shape and height.

The Japanese center relies on his physical advantage and has absolute dominance in the inside.

Not only did he create Chinese players with his size many times, but he also made extremely provocative.

At this time, the Chinese team's coach let our "big baby" play.

Treat them in the same way and give them all to Chuangfei.

Two or three people double-teamed Liu Yutong, and they not only made layups under pressure, but also caused them to make multiple fouls.

beat them so much that they were crying without tears.

In the end, the Chinese team won the Women's Basketball Championship at the Universiade, and the name of Liu Yutong's female version of O'Neal spread.

And Liu Yutong, who has such a brilliant performance, will join the national team without any surprise.

But when the list of the Chinese women's basketball national team was announced, Liu Yutong's name was not available.

not only made countless fans feel sorry, but she herself was also trapped in deep reflection.

Self-breakthrough

As we all know, Liu Yutong has an absolute advantage in body shape and an absolute dominance in the inside.

This is her advantage, but she also has obvious physical shortcomings and her speed is relatively slow and her flexibility is poor.

And the two new rising stars of the women's basketball team at that time, Han Xu and Li Yueru were also rising as a new generation of "women's basketball inside double towers".

For both of them, their dominance in the inside is not as perverted as Liu Yutong.

However, they are one quarter higher than Liu Yutong in terms of speed, endurance and flexibility.

And Liu Yutong's large weight advantage has become a double-edged sword, and his confrontation and inside domination are strong.

But lack of movement speed and defensive coverage.

Perhaps this is why she lost the election, and she seemed to have clearly realized it herself.

So she resolutely set foot on the American plane to break through herself.

While she was in the United States, she received systematic physical training, such as endurance, explosion, and core training.

At first, she was really difficult, after all, posing her figure there was equivalent to weight-bearing training.

Even every time I can't stand the pain in my legs and stop and rest for a while.

But as perseverance breaks out of the siege, through scientific training plans and diet.

Her physical fitness gradually improved, while her weight was gradually decreasing.

The body has a qualitative leap, and all these hardships are worth it.

Not only that, Liu Yutong also specializes in the study of training modes of large-weight athletes.

studied for a doctorate in sports training at Beijing Normal University, combining theory with one's own personal practice.

Explore how to scientifically optimize the competitive performance of large-weight players.

not only provides itself with theoretical knowledge, but also provides a new direction for the future development of women's basketball.

The almost harsh training in the United States also gave her a qualitative transformation.

Return again

From the former inside tank to the current super hexagonal warrior.

Liu Yutong, who returned to Beijing Shougang Women's Basketball Team, brought a lot of shock to everyone.

The "big baby" who used to be physically delayed is now also following.

not only became more hardworking than before, but it was eye-catching.

It feels like entering the national team in the future is not a dream. The story of "Big Baby" is not only a counterattack for an athlete, but also a symbol of spirit.

She used her personal actions to tell us that it is not scary to fall, but what she is afraid of is that you are afraid of being thrown and you dare not get up.

Difficulties are not something that cannot be overcome, the key is whether you make up your mind.

The real strong will never be defeated by setbacks, but will become more courageous and stronger as they get setbacks.
