"After all, the amount of training has been relatively heavy. If we consume more, we'll eat more."

Shigeno Shin's eyes are fixed as if he only has eyes for the food, his expression remains unchanged, and he says in a calm tone. Miyuki Kazuya was stunned for a moment, then turned and said with anger.

"Shin, why have you been so cold lately? Your ability to make jokes has improved huh."

This guy Shin is cursing him for not training diligently.

Miyuki Kazuya discovered that Shigeno Shin's ability to crack cold jokes was becoming proficient.

"I don't mean anything else Kazuya, don't think about it too much..."

"Shin, If you could stop smiling like that, I might believe you."

Miyuki Kazuya smiled "coldly" and directly and decisively exposed Shigeno Shin's poor acting skills, in his opinion. Kuramochi Yoichi, next to them, ignored them, shrugged his shoulders, and continued eating while the two resumed their discussion.

At least Kuramochi Yoichi has no intention of getting involved.

It's better to eat honestly and take a break. It's more economical to have more time to train in the afternoon.

Anyway, Kuramochi Yoichi was caught by a senpai for helping Miyuki Kazuya with the third bowl of rice for the 9th time. After giving him a stern lecture, he swore that he would never help Miyuki Kazuya with her food again. This is what Kuramochi Yoichi learned from the bitter experience. In conclusion, he has to take care of himself.

So, for the current position.

The right way is to talk less, eat more, and leave the table quickly. As for the content of Shigeno Shin and Miyuki Kazuya's discussion, Kuramochi Yoichi isn't interested and doesn't want to know.

Shigeno Shin and Miyuki Kazuya, who continued to talk next to him, naturally didn't understand how many years had passed through Kuramochi Yoichi's head. Or rather, even if they did, Miyuki Kazuya wouldn't care, and Shigeno Shin would naturally make fun of it.

sometimes.

I swear this kind of thing is pointless.

There are times when certain people stand up to certain people.

It's simply a colder joke than Antarctica.

Unfavorable fates, natural enemies, and harmful friends are things that no one can avoid in life.

At least, in Shigeno Shin's eyes, Kuramochi Yoichi and Miyuki Kazuya have such a relationship.

"Last night, Chris-Senpai and you had an "in-depth communication", right? By the way, how do you feel about joining the 1st String? Do you feel excited? Of course, you have, is the intensity of training in the 1st String greater? What are the senpais like?

It seems to be a little closer again.

With a mischievous smile on his face, Miyuki Kazuya said softly to Shigeno Shin.

[What is "in-depth communication" and what about "excitement"?]

Shigeno Shin looked at Miyuki Kazuya in front of him, with dark wrinkles on his forehead. I wonder if this guy is the kind of representative figure who failed his Japanese exam... the Japanese language doesn't allow you to use it like that, Miyuki Kazuya-kun.

"na na na, let's talk about it in detail."

Miyuki Kazuya seemed to be very interested in Chris-senpai and everything around him. The twinkle in his eyes made Shigeno Shin twitch the corner of his mouth.

[Miyuki-kun, your image is completely different from the previous style].

What's more, in Shigeno Shin's field of vision, at least Kuramochi Yoichi, next door, and the honest people in front of him, Shirasu Kenjirou and Kawakami Norifumi, the two good guys, immediately perked up.

[hey hey, You two can ignore the first half of Miyuki's sentence.]

But for Shigeno Shin's colleagues, such as Shirasu Kenjirou, Kuramochi Yoichi, and Kawakami Norifumi, who are keen to join the 1st String as soon as possible, they are very interested in any information about the 1st String.

After Shigeno Shin was selected for the first string earlier.

For their first-year colleagues, the stimulus effect is extremely high.

Even if they can't be like Shigeno Shin, who joined the 1st string just one month after joining the team.

However, you also have to work hard and join the 1st String before the summer competition. The sooner you join the 1st String, the greater your potential will be. Each baseball team only has 20 players.

There are only nine players who can play in a match.

The number of players is limited.

Especially in a powerful and famous school like Seidou High School, not just any player can join the 1st string. 2nd and 3rd year students have to be able to fight. In short, only those with strength can join the 1st string. In this case, real-time combat power must be taken into account, but even more important is the potential of the players themselves.

Both are combined.

This is the main reason why prestigious high schools consider 1st-year players on their benches for summer competitions.

Since there is now a colleague who has been selected for the 1st String, he must be very interested in this information about the 1st String.

I understand this too.

The corners of Shigeno Shin's mouth also lifted slightly, revealing a knowing smile.

"If we talk about intensity, then the intensity of the first string is higher. Whether it's defensive training or attacking training, the coach pays more attention to actual effectiveness. It doesn't mean that a lot of time is spent on it. After training, the coach recognizes this. To be honest, the training method has to be right for you and you have to know the method properly, especially field training, from the base to the infield, from the infield to the outfield, the connection between the infield, and the cooperation between the outfield. Every player on the pitch needs to express himself, but he's not the only one. If the defender on the field neglects to cooperate with his teammates and makes serious mistakes, the result goes without saying. Well, during training, the coach also emphasized this point. During the training session a few days ago, remember, Kazuya and Yoichi, the coach emphasized the amount of training the players themselves did. It has to be said that lazy players, even Kazuya, can't even get into the team, but if you don't understand your position, don't know how to cooperate, and don't understand what teamwork is, even if you're selected for the 1st string for a while, you'll always be on the bench, and you'll still be on the bench with a high chance of being sent back to the 2nd string."

Shigeno Shin tilted his head slightly with a meaningful smile and said softly.

Whatever the type of sport, diligence itself is a necessary condition for continuous improvement. However, it is true diligence that requires finding the right method. Whether it's a competition or training, if they can't find the fighting method that suits them, the players must train different things.

Its growth is limited and the power it can exert is also limited.

In short, you need to understand and discover the type of player you are, and then train in a targeted way. This is truly effective training.

Coach Kataoka will also pay attention to this in his daily training.

Regularly giving the players some constructive suggestions, but above all demanding that the players work hard and see themselves. This means they have to have a clear positioning, find the target, and then train hard to become really strong players.

Shigeno Shin's words also made everyone very scared and Miyuki Kazuya even looked thoughtful.
