Zhang Guan, who broke the national record, received a week's vacation. After returning home and a brief reunion with his parents, he returned to the track and field team to start a new training.
On the track, Zhang Guan set his feet on the starting block.
Old Lao Chen raised his starting gun and shouted: "Everyone, prepare"
The gunshots sounded and Zhang Guan rushed forward, but immediately relieved his force and stopped after a few steps
Zhang Guan is practicing starts.
Chen Lao frowned, and muttered to himself: "How do I feel that your start is quite fast! No, rest for five minutes, let us try again."
Zhang Guan nodded, but secretly laughed in his heart. The new passive skill "Quick Response" can indeed make his starting reaction time faster. Now his starting reaction time can be maintained between 0.15 seconds and 0.17 seconds This is similar to other professional athletes
And the "fast response" skill is not only to increase the starting reaction time but also the reaction speed of other movements becomes faster.
Throughout the morning, Chen Lao felt that Zhang Guan's starting reaction time was not lost to professional players. This kind of judgment made Chen Lao feel very strange.
"How did I go home for a week, and the starting reaction time seemed to be faster." Chen Lao scratched his head in confusion, and then said: "Go, go to the equipment to test."
Athlete timing equipment used in international competitions is a very complicated device. The starting gun will be connected to the sensor of the starting time. At the same time, there is also a sensing device in the starting device used by the athlete. It is calculated for the first time to judge whether the athlete is running, and the sensor at the end is used to calculate the athlete's finish time. It is also equipped with a high-speed imaging system and a slow-speed playback system, which is used when the naked eye is difficult to distinguish Provide evidence. According to international standards, the time accuracy requirement of this set of equipment is one-thousandth of a second, which can be regarded as a precision instrument, so the price is also very expensive. Even the provincial team is only equipped with one set of such equipment.
It took an hour for the technicians to debug the equipment, then Zhang Guan stood on the starting block, and Chen Lao sat beside the screen, staring at the data above.
When the starting gun sounded, Zhang Guan quickly started running, and the electronic screen immediately showed Zhang Guan's starting reaction time.
Chen Lao stared at the screen with wide eyes, and the figures above made him feel both surprised and unbelievable.
"0.159?"
Even in international competitions, the starting reaction time within 0.159 seconds is considered a qualified number, and the starting reaction time of about 0.13 seconds is simply unattainable.
"This equipment is all right!" Chen Lao asked the technician next to him.
The technician immediately replied: "Chen Lao is assured that this set of equipment can be expensive, and we maintain it every day, there must be no problem."
Chen Lao immediately turned his head and asked Zhang Guan: "Xiao Zhang, did you run away with a pressure gun?"
Zhang Guan shook his head immediately.
"Impossible, how could it be so much faster in a week! This is unscientific." Chen Lao thought for a while, and then said immediately: "Take a 10-minute break, let's try again, this time I give the order personally."
....
The reason why Chen Lao is preparing to give orders personally is to verify whether Zhang Guan uses the method of running with a gun.
The start of a sprinter is very critical. The normal start is called listening to the gun, that is, the athlete starts after the referee fires the gun, and pressing the gun to run in the start is also a conventional sprint tactic. Starting rhythm, strive to start when the starting gun sounds. If this starting method is successful, you can earn at least 0.02 seconds.
The pressure gun run is often used by some experienced athletes, and many truly capable athletes rarely use the pressure gun to run this tactic to stabilize in the game, or only when they encounter a strong enemy evenly Only use the pressure gun to run; or know that you are in a poor condition today, and you have a normal start to lose or win, simply use the pressure gun to run a game
As a trainer, it is discouraged or even not allowed for new athletes to use a pressure gun to run. The most important thing for new athletes is to build a good foundation and improve their level through solid training, rather than hope to improve their performance in the pressure gun This kind of blocking tactics, so Chen Lao does not want Zhang Guan to come into contact with the technique of running the gun prematurely.
"Everyone, prepare..."
Chen Lao raised the starting gun, but he did not start it. He was prepared to intentionally disrupt the rhythm of the usual command. If Zhang Guan used the tactics of running with a pressure gun, he would definitely move when the starting gun did not sound. To know that this electronic starting block is very sensitive, the athlete's foot can be perceived at least a little away from the starting block.
But Champion Zhang did not move but was waiting for Chen Lao's order with peace of mind.
"BLAM!"
The sound of the starting gun sounded and Zhang Guan followed.
"It doesn't feel like running with a gun. His body was obviously moved after the gunshot sounded." Chen Lao immediately turned back and asked the technician in front of the screen: "What is the reaction time for starting?"
"0.161 seconds." The technician replied.
Although the starting reaction time this time is 0.002 seconds slower than before, this slight difference in the level of one-thousandth of a second is completely negligible, and the two starting reaction times can be regarded as the same level of results.
"How is this possible!" Chen Lao has never encountered this situation in his career as an athlete-level coach for decades.
The reason why the starting reaction time of sprinters is relatively short is mainly because of a lot of long-term training. Without normal training, it is impossible for normal people to achieve the starting reaction time of the athletes within 0.2 seconds. The speed of human response is affected by the brain and nerves. It is a physiological indicator. It follows the laws of nature. It is obviously a violation of the normal laws of nature to significantly increase the starting reaction time in a short period.
"What did you do at home this week?" Chen Lao asked.
"Eat, sleep, play Doudou." Zhang Guan whispered: "Doudou is my dog."
Chen Lao didn't believe it: "How did your starting reaction time improve so much!"
"Old Chen didn't you say I am a sprint genius. The genius naturally wants to create some miracles!" Zhang Guan mysteriously said.
....
The intense heat in August is difficult to resist the athletes' passion for training, sweat and tears are intertwined and scattered on this training ground. It is indeed a beautiful dream for athletes.
At the end of August, the results of the Ninth World Athletics Championships have been passed back to China. The national team ranked 37th with two bronze medals, and seven people entered the top eight in five events. Among the high-level walking events, both male and female athletes are ranked in the top ten, women's hammer throw 4th, women's discus 7th, women's pole vault 9th, women's five kilometers 9th, women's javelin 11th. The women's triple jump 13th, as for the men's events of track and field, few qualified for the competition, not to mention the ranking.
However, there are still some highlights in this competition. The men 's decathlon event broke a national record, the women 's 10,000-meter event Xing Huina set a world youth record, and another female player Sun Yingjie won the women 's 10,000-meter event bronze medal What's more worth mentioning is that Liu Feiren won the bronze medal in the men's 110-meter hurdles project, creating history for the national team.
The results of the two bronzes have been regarded as the best results of the national team in the World Athletics Championships in recent years. Compared with the previous session, they have made great progress, not to mention the breakthroughs in the men 's 110-meter hurdles, so the national track and field teams have returned. Beijing was warmly welcomed. Then, after a short break, the national track and field team will usher in the 15th Asian Athletics Championships.
....
Early September.
The training field of the provincial track and field team is much rarer, and the rest are mainly young athletes, even many coaches are not there.
The National Track and Field Championships Huangpu Station is in full swing. For most of the country 's track and field athletes, they have no chance to stand up to the world dance.
On the stage, events of this level in the National Athletics Championships have become a good platform for them to show themselves.
Because this event is a touring event, the qualifications for the competition were already set at the beginning of the year, so Zhang Guan, a "monk who is a monk halfway", is not eligible to participate in this event. He will not have the opportunity to register until next year. So Zhang Guan stayed in the provincial capital and continued to train with Chen Lao.
This is the time when the autumn tiger showed his power. Zhang Guan's training suit was already wet with sweat, so he took off his shirtless for training.
Mr. Chen looked at the bronzed muscles on Zhang Guan 's body and felt that the volume and lines of this muscle did not want to be a 17-year-old young man.
At this moment, Chen Lao's cell phone rang, it was a call from Coach Zhou.
"Hey, Xiao Zhou, it's me. You shouldn't be at the game now, how can you have time to call me? How is our team's performance?" Chen Lao asked.
On the other side of the microphone, Coach Zhou's words were very fast. The Chinese player ran into another 10.20 seconds.
"Olympic Games! I didn't dare think about it before, but now I'm able to participate!"
