近日，來自吉林市的中學生馬家俊以701 次的成績刷新了“連續三搖跳繩（男子組）”的世界紀錄。此前的世界紀錄是由一名日本人創造的，為423 次。

Ma Jiajun has been practicing jump rope since the third grade of primaryschool. His father just wanted him to keep fit at first. However， the PE teacher foundhis talent and advised him to try professional training. In the second year of middleschool， Ma Jiajun joined a club and started professional training.

馬家俊從小學三年級起就開始練習跳繩。起初，他父親只是想讓他強身健體。然而，體育老師發現了他的天賦，并建議他嘗試專業訓練。初二時，馬家俊加入了一家俱樂部，開始了專業訓練。

In 2019， Ma Jiajun won the first national championship2 in his life. XuTianhai， MaJiajun’s coach， found that he was better at triple unders. So Ma Jiajunmade it as a main event. When preparing to break the world record， Ma Jiajuntrained 8 hours a day. “Your efforts will be paid off！ ”MaJiajun’s coach oftenencouraged him in this way.

2019 年，馬家俊獲得了人生中的第一個全國冠軍。馬家駿的教練徐天海發現，他更擅長三搖跳繩。于是，馬家俊將其作為主要訓練項目。在為打破世界紀錄作準備時，馬家俊每天訓練8 個小時。“你的努力會得到回報的！”馬家俊的教練經常這樣鼓勵他。

At the end of 2021， Ma Jiajun made videos for those who decide if the recordhas been broken. “When I jumped rope more than 500 times， I was too tired， butmy willpower3 helped me finish the last 200 times.”After finishing it， he lay onthe ground.

2021 年年底，馬家俊錄制視頻交與賽委會，以此認定他是否打破了紀錄。“當我跳了500 多下的時候，我太累了，但我的意志力支撐我跳完了最后200 下。”完成后，他整個人都癱在了地上。

Right now， he is preparing for more competitions. A lot of teenagers think ofMa Jiajun as a role model and have joined the jump rope team.

現在，他正在為更多的比賽做準備。許多青少年把馬家俊當作榜樣，紛紛加入跳繩隊。
