Short news piece about the nationals. Translation from Victor:
The 2015 nationals will take place in Zhejiang, at the training center opened in the name of Zhan Xugang.
While most people may take a day or even 2 off before competition, Wu Jingbiao decided to train in the morning before his meet.
Wu says, “I just did some light, jerk-related exercises, nothing that can sap my energy for later. It’s my habit to train. Actually, among myself, Long Qingquan, and Li Fabin, we are close to equal and it all depends on who is able to better bring out his training on this day. I am not nervous. It will be very interesting.”
The reporter notes that Wu Jingbiao’s outlook towards competition has changed with the years.
