Small clips of women's podium training.


Translation by Cow:
The women's podium training was split into 4 subdivisions, and the team champion of the last Games, Guangdong, trained during the 3rd subdivision. Zhang Qingying, who recently won the balance beam title and all around bronze at the World Championships, led Zhejiang, the 2025 National Championships team gold medalists, in the podium training. They were in pretty good condition.

ZQY: I have attended one National Games before, the one in 2021, and that was my first time as a senior. The arena and lighting feels pretty good today. I am more focused on my skills and routines to think too much about it.

Qiu Qiyuan of Fujian has recovered around 60-70% of her skills after her elbow surgery. In her training, she hurt her foot, which has impacted her landings. She has expressed that she will try her best to overcome these difficulties in the competition.

QQY: Since I kinda injured my foot this year, it's been hurting more and training has been more difficult. Overall, today felt pretty good. Since it's just podium training, we just got used to the equipment, and it felt just like a typical practice.
