No more excuses. 

That is how lots of netizens feel after seeing her hardcore training with only one leg.

Chen Yimei, a 22-year-old Sichuan native, has been a devoted athlete in her college’s track and field team since 2012.

A left-leg amputation in a car crash 13 years ago did not cool down her sports fever.

Starting from getting into shape, Chen spent more time training than anyone else.

She heavily practiced one-leg jumping for nine total months before installing a prosthetic limb.

To boost her athleticism, she used to jump 100 meters per set for four sets every day.
