Young Chinese boys bend their bodies and do the splits on the floor to practice gymnastics at a gymnastics training center in Bozhou city, east Chinas Anhui province, 9 July 2014. One movement repeated so many times, even hundreds of times. Every year, parents send their children to the gym to for exercises that will make them stronger. The coach repeats over and over again the essential elements, correcting the kids posture one by one. Those who do it well can come down earlier, otherwise they have to keep standing upside-down. Upside-down undershorts have become a characteristic sight in the gymnasium. Chain reaction: If one child utters a cry, it will prompt the entire group of children to cry, and the more they cry, the louder it gets.
