So as to not lose the shape, Wang has transformed the roof of his building in an unlikely field of training, where strictly with the mask on him holding sessions day-to-day athletics and ball, posting them on social.

to Think that this round of olympic qualification had to play just to Wuhan, at the beginning of February. The chinese national had already arrived in the city, from where it was made hastily leave when the proportions of the epidemic became suddenly apparent to all, a day before the metropolis the epicenter of the coronavirus were isolated from the rest of the world. The 25-year-old Wang remained there, as the other two companions in strength to the local team, all considered too at risk to be able to exit the quarantine.

its sessions on the roof are one of the most extreme and original of the chinese athletes try to comply with the roadmap of the olympic, in the midst of the crisis of the coronavirus. But the same problem, as you continue to train without sex, is common among the sports of the people's Republic, considering that the entire Country is subjected to blocks and restrictions of some kind, while all the official races, of whatever discipline, have been frozen.

The risk is that the ranks of the olympic national suffer defections, not being able to athletes participating in the qualifying events, or that the build up of delays in preparation of Tokyo, an edition of the Games which the regime expects a raise in the medal count after the disappointment of Rio.

The Federation has developed an emergency plan, which provides that athletes and teams exercise abroad, if possible, or in strict isolation.
The women's team of football, Wang excluded, shall be and remain in Australia, where it has been able to land before the Country would block the inputs from China. The exercise is flown in Qatar, and even those of table tennis and badminton are safe over the border.

The fact that normally many of the athletes exercise outside the national territory has facilitated the things. For those who are in the homeland, instead, has helped the discipline of military-style sets, also usually to professional athletes. The federation has isolated them in dedicated facilities, in a quarantine of the fact that also involves coaches, trainers and staff. Better than that it's up to Wang, alone to juggle on a roof.
