举重打破国家纪录，浙江90后女博士火了
Zheng Xiaoxuan is a PhD student. She is good at weightlifting (举重).
In the summer of 2020, Zheng became fat fast. “I tried to eat less but couldn’t,” she said. Then she decided to start weightlifting. She began to work out (锻炼) at the gym. There, she met Yi. He became her training friend and later boyfriend. Yi found Zheng was good at sports and encouraged (鼓励) her to join competitions. In May, 2024, Zheng joined her first competition in Xiamen. She broke China’s record that time! Later in December, 2024, Zheng won third place in another competition. This win enables her to join the 2025 World Games.
Zheng loves both weightlifting and study, but for her, study comes first. She plans her weightlifting training like schoolwork — carefully and step by step.
