Huge hidden danger? Yang Yi: 18-year-old Zhang Ziyu is 30 kilograms heavier than 22-year-old Yao Ming! Experts have never seen it

The Chinese women's basketball team is preparing for the upcoming Asian Cup. Under the leadership of new head coach Gong Luming, the women's basketball team hopes to achieve better results. Recently, the women's basketball team has held a series of warm-up matches. In the two warm-up matches against Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Chinese women's basketball team won big wins, and the highly-watched young player Zhang Ziyu played an eye-catching performance in both warm-up matches. Zhang Ziyu can be regarded as a nuclear weapon of the Chinese women's basketball team. His stepping into the inside is almost a threat that any opponent can't solve.
Zhang Ziyu has such an outstanding performance that he has even been recruited into the national team by skipping the level and will participate in the next Women's Basketball Asian Cup. At this point, Zhang Ziyu will not return to the U19 women's basketball team for the time being to participate in those youth-level competitions. This is a good thing and a hidden danger for Zhang Ziyu. The good thing is that Zhang Ziyu can adapt to the adult team’s competition in advance, which will help her grow better; the hidden danger is that Zhang Ziyu has to participate in high-intensity competitions frequently at a young age. Will it cause some consumption to her body? After all, Zhang Ziyu's height and weight are too big. If it is not managed scientifically, there will be some hidden dangers of injury.
Zhang Ziyu was born in May 2007 and is 18 years old this year. Regarding Zhang Ziyu's height, the latest news is 2.26 meters. In terms of weight, on the 13th of this month, women's basketball coach Gong Luming said in an interview that Zhang Ziyu had a weight of 300 pounds, which was about the same as Yao Ming's. In this regard, the famous basketball commentator Yang Yi has some concerns. Yang Yi believes that Zhang Ziyu's current weight corresponds to her height. This kind of special athlete is very rare and needs to be protected and scientifically trained to avoid excessive physical load.
Zhang Ziyu is currently playing in a warm-up match with the Chinese women's basketball team. According to the latest reports, she will play in this summer's Women's Basketball Asian Cup. Yang Yi talked about Zhang Ziyu in his program. He said: "The 18-year-old Zhang Ziyu is currently 2.25 meters tall and weighs 300 kilograms. What does this mean? When Yao Ming went to the NBA at the age of 22, he was 2.26 meters tall and weighed 120 kilograms. The 18-year-old Zhang Ziyu is 30 kilograms heavier than the 22-year-old Yao Ming. Don't think so. Every step of Zhang Ziyu is a new topic (Chinese basketball).
A girl of 2.25 meters tall and weighs 300 kilograms. I won't discuss technology and ability. Like this, after training in a professional basketball team, they have been healthy. Whether their knees can withstand it is beyond the scope of basketball. Girls have bone density not as high as boys, and their load ability is not as high as boys. Experts in all aspects have never seen girls over 2.20 meters, and experts in the world have never seen athletes who may be at least 2.5 meters or more in the men's basketball field."
In fact, Yang Yi's point of view is correct. Zhang Ziyu's height and weight are of such a large weight, if he cannot keep up with his strength, he may become a glass man once he is injured. He must use it in moderation to protect the players. The national team should find ways to ensure her health, train scientifically, use it reasonably, and take good care of her. Don’t use it indiscriminately and use it indiscriminately like Yao Ming when she used it!
Zhang Ziyu's height is here, and his weight of about 300 pounds is indeed too heavy. As Yang Yi said, the bone density of female athletes is not as good as that of male athletes, which means that under her weight, bones, muscles, ligaments, etc. will face very severe tests. If you don’t strictly control your weight, when the intensity of the game becomes stronger and the density of the game becomes higher and higher, injuries may come unexpectedly and threaten her career.
Yao Ming was asked by the head coach to gain weight in the NBA and later became an inside monster with more than 300 pounds. It is precisely because of this huge weight that crushed Yao Ming's knees and ankles. In the end, Yao Ming's NBA career was only 9 years before he quickly announced his retirement. This is also something that many fans feel regretful and resentful.
Yao Ming's experience reminded Zhang Ziyu. She is now bigger than Yao Ming. The little girl needs to lose weight appropriately under scientific management. If it can be controlled at about 200 kilograms, it will be a very ideal state, which will not affect her game, but will also protect her. What do you think, fans?
