I used to read about the power of the human body. Books about physics can better understand one’s own body and use more rationally to avoid injuries. So in all aspects, I strongly encourage everyone, especially athletes, to cultivate the habit of reading. Personally, I think reading has benefited me a lot.”

Feng Ruilin and Ren Yufei are both 15-year-old students who have just entered the first year of high school this year, and they are also the best tennis players of the same age in China. A book that Feng Ruilin has recently finished reading is “The Joy Luck Club” written by Amy Tan, a Chinese American writer. Feng Ruilin said, “Although the schoolwork is heavy and I usually have to practice tennis and I don’t have much time for reading, I still hope to actively cultivate my reading habits.”

Tennis is not only a competition between physical fitness and technical level, but psychological factors are also the key to determining the outcome. In this competition, Ren Yufei contained the book “The Miracle Power of Body and Mind Unity” in sports psychology. “This book was recommended to me by my coach. It is a book I am reading recently. I think this book is of great help to my psychology on the field. In my understanding, this book expresses The point of view is that people have two selves. Self one will send you instructions when you play, while self two is executing instructions. Self one will continue to issue instructions to interfere with us when we play, and athletes should respect self-awareness. And muscle memory, eliminate the interference formed by the self, and naturally play these balls in training and games.”

Ren Yufei said that she is currently in the process of improving her technical movements. The point of view conveyed in this book is exactly the mentality she needs right now: “I am changing the batting movements recently, so I think some of the things in this book The remarks are very suitable for my current situation and are of great help to me. Changing the movement is a relatively painful experience, and this book can help me to get through this process smoothly.”
