Chinese Olympic gold medallist Liu Xiang is working hard to
break the 110-meter men's hurdle world record and thinks yoga can
help.
"I had been looking for a new training regime for Liu which
could help him in achieving the 12:90 world record for a long
time," said Sun Haiping, who coached the Shanghai native to win
China's first-ever Olympic men's gold in athletics in Athens.
Liu equaled the world mark of 12:91 in the Athens final. "Liu's
result has been impressive this winter, better than last year,"
said Sun. "He should be able to reach his best in summer."
