Two golds would give him 15 career world or Olympic titles, surpassing a mark set by Li Ning.

"Xiaopeng is very self-assured and confident, and he has already climbed out from the valley of his failure at the Olympics," men's coach Chen Xiong has been quoted as saying.

"At this competition, we're not asking too much of him, so the pressure is low. If he breaks the 14 gold-medal record, then he breaks it, but we're not specifically going after it."

Li, 24, injured his foot ahead of China's 10th National Games in October, but Zhang said he was recovering well and should be in shape to shine on the parallel bars and vault, his specialities.

"From superhuman effort comes superhuman achievement," reads another slogan hanging over pictures of Li and 41 other Chinese gymnastics greats.

Yet China's coaches do fear that the hard training schedule could leave their gymnasts worn out in Melbourne, especially since they have recently competed at the National Games and the East Asian Games.

"Exhaustion is our biggest challenge," said women's coach Lu Shanzhen.

To make sure the athletes get their sleep, Lu and the other coaches have imposed strict rules regarding free time.

Gymnasts' computers and car keys have been confiscated, they are not allowed out at night and the lights go out at 10 p.m. in their state-provided apartments.
