[tkin]

[sumonpathak]

Lots of pics, search google, some I found: Training or Torture? How China prepares for the Olympics | MyBloogle – an Eastern Blog with a Western Twist
Are the Chinese winning Olympic medals through child cruelty & torture? (+video) | Joe Miller
The dirty side - why China wins Olympic? | Linux Blog, Server Management tutorials, cPanel Tutorials

Seems to be true, cause some 16yrs breaking Michael Phelps records is virtually impossible, that by a large margin, intense training is the only way unless they are doping.

It's hardwork, what else ?

Hence I am doubting the authenticity of these pics, but then again china are really not known for their human rights, or child labor.

She broke the world record, and beat Lochte's timing on the last 50 metres. Hardly impossible. That way, you should question why teenager Missy Franklin won 4 gold medals or Ruta Meilutyte (15 yrs) won the breaststroke gold.

Pictures may be authentic, but it's legal.

wth...the kids are merely 4 t0 5 yrs old....and so much cruelty.

[Liverpool_fan]

So if the Chinese do it it is "cruelty"

Before any outrage, remember, an equivalent for Yindans would be the person forcing their kid to beg/work in hazardous environment. Or forcing them with pencil/copy (in middle class).

This intensive training explains though why Chinese own in individual sports while suck in team sports.

[rhitwick]

This asks for a debate actually, how much is too much?

What if they justify it saying "going the extra mile"?

And, in any training camp, you could get such rugged, tortured, crying faces if you are intending to click such photos only. And, would you consider commando trainings inhuman or illegal?

Its better than IIT coaching from LKG

@tkin: u saw the pics...I saw it on Dicovery/NG Channel
this is real...& hard practice

[Anorion]

think the gymnasts everywhere start very young

All Indians suck. China rocks. In Sports.

If you can't play, you can still contribute by going to events.

[Gearbox]

Absolutely Hardwork and dedication, though facilities play a major support.
While others are rejoicing with GOLD medals, we are hoping for atleast a BRONZE!

[ico]

Nothing about facilities. We aren't worse than Kenya and Ethopia in those. We lack the hard work and the culture / community backing.

In India, Corruption plays well than the sports in olympics.

I agree, but don't make silly posts. Corruption is an old excuse.

[Renny]

I agree, but don't make silly posts. Corruption is an old excuse.

Silly? Its the fact, corruption thrives much better here than anything else.

Hard working sportsmen are there, they don't get the facilities and monetary help they deserve due to corruption.

Its no silly and not an old excuse. Its happening everywhere.

Now that's a silly comment.

[tkin]

In india its not corruption, but out mindset, 'beta cricketer banega' thats the moto of our parents, they all dream to make large, but in fact there are very few countries in which cricketers make as much as ours do, and even then they invest for olympic medals, we just don't care about olympics, we are happy in our on dream world in which the cricket is the supreme sports and olympics are just nothing, which is the opposite all over the world.

How many people actually go and watch events? None. Is the community putting their money by buying tickets? How will organisations get the revenue?

No point of blaming the govt. and corruption. Old excuse. Retarded public is the one to blame. They sit on chair and watch Cricket. That's all.

Now that's a silly comment.

Nope, it isn't silly sir. Far less silly than yours. Go to some stadium to watch something other than IPL next time.

[Renny]

Its corruption most of the times for athletics. There are many hard working athletes, they often don't get any monetary help and facilities.

Like the hockey time was made to clean their toilets/football team was given something like 5k rupees etc. Its all due to corruption, money meant for them is being eaten away, this is why people are not keen/encouraged to get into athletics.

Comparing to other games, it is the only game that has craze all over india. They get sponsors more, so they are spending more on. Nobody gives a hi-5 for other sports wins.

Have you even gone out once to watch an athletic event/hockey match/football match?

Govt. and corruption excuses are old. Public isn't any better. Both aren't doing their bit. Result = zero.

Why don't people watch these events? Maybe its because Indians most of the times don't win medals?

You feel its because of a lack of hard work, I feel its because of the indifference meted out to these people both by the Government and the public. Govt and public only reward the cricketers giving them crores, sites endorsements and what not.

Look at the athlete who now works at a brick kiln, isn't the bureaucracy and red-tape to be blamed for her fate?

Let me rephrase that - Majority of the Indians who are indifferent to other athletes and only support cricket suck.

I indeed have.

I go out to watch football all the time, but I think this is limited to us bengalis, the gallery is full during most of the interesting matches even in rain or heat, tickets are extremely cheap, 40/50 rs would net you a good seat.

But never went to see hockey or athletic event.

Why don't people watch these events? Maybe its because no Indian ever wins medals?

We need

1. Training centers.
2. Educated coaches.
3. Proper nutrition for the athletes, also they should check for scams, cause in paper the athletes be eating chicken, in reality they will be fed dal and rice.
4. Prize money for athletes winning medals(UP and hariyana I think is doing it this year).

I go out for usually Hockey. Sometimes Tennis as the Commonwealth Venue is walking distance. Football as well when it's happening in Ambedkar Stadium.

Bang on the point. A decent amount as prize money, not the pittance that is being paid to them.

I feel this thread should be moved to the Fight Club

5. Concessions for the winning athletes as like MLA/MP s?
