Do you know Olympic weightlifting champion Tang?

The four-year Olympic Games is the stage that many athletes dream of, and many athletes dream of standing on the highest podium. However, no matter what sports. This road is extremely difficult, and the difficulties and obstacles are beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Weightlifting is definitely one of the most dangerous events in sports. Lifting barbells is not brute force, and it is very easy to get hurt without scientific training. It's not easy for weightlifters. Most of them lost their aura after retirement because of their huge weight and low face value, and their lives returned to dullness. Unlike table tennis, diving gymnastics and other sports, athletes can also receive some advertising endorsements after retirement. Many weightlifters have become forgotten heroes after retiring. Tang, whom we are going to talk about today, is such a person.

Tang is 1.70 meters tall and weighs 240 Jin. She is a weightlifter, with a huge figure and plain appearance. 1979 was born in Yantai City, Shandong Province. 1 1 year-old, his weight has reached 62 kilograms, which is much heavier than children of the same age and has great strength. Because of her great strength, she began to practice weightlifting, and she worked very hard and seriously during training. After big and small competitions, Tang gained a firm foothold in lifting weights and successively entered the Shandong provincial team and the national team.

Tang was selected for the national team and was recognized by the coach. In the 2004 Asian Championship, she won the snatch, the clean and jerk and the total score, and became a leading figure in weightlifting in China. Because of her outstanding performance, she qualified for the Athens Olympic Games. At the Athens Olympic Games, people were moved by her perfect performance.

Looking back on the game, the audience still remembers it vividly. She traded her life for a gold medal. Tang's opponent at that time was South Korea, and his strength should not be underestimated. At that time, the lifting weight was 172.5 kg, and Tang's attempt to lift 172.5 kg failed. It's even harder for her to lift 182.5kg again, just in the crowd. Applause thundered in the stadium, and China's Don won the Olympic champion and broke the world record.

It is gratifying to win the Olympic champion, but she paid a heavy price for Tang. Due to nose and ear bleeding after the game, blood pressure rose rapidly and internal organs were damaged, so he was rushed to the hospital. In an interview with reporters, she said that she didn't regret her last attempt. Her spirit is commendable and she is a role model for athletes.

After retiring, Tang worked in Weihai Weightlifting Training Base to train weightlifting talents for the country. Tang found his own happiness on 20 12. Although the man is an ordinary person, he is tall and handsome.

Because of lifting weights all the year round, Tang's body has been seriously damaged, and her weight has reached 260 Jin. Her fat body has brought a lot of inconvenience to her life. I read in a report that Tang bought a domestic car worth 70,000 yuan. This is in stark contrast to other sports stars driving luxury cars. Former Olympic champions lead an ordinary life and rarely appear in public view. Finally, I hope she can live a happy life.
