The men's 100m semi-final in the afternoon started at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and there were two groups in the semi-final, 16 into 8, and then the final.

Su Zu also ran very hard in this group of semi-finals, and the players in the semi-final group were also much higher than the preliminaries, and finally Su Zu ran a time of 10.40 seconds in the semi-finals, which did not exceed his preliminaries and temporarily ranked second in the semi-finals. In the other group of the semifinals, a track and field veteran of the Bayi Gong Team ran a time of 10.39 seconds.

At the current stage, this result is very good in China, and there are not many people who can run smoothly in 10.40 seconds, and even less if they run 10.30 seconds, otherwise it would not be said that the Olympic AB standard has not yet been reached.

"Coach Li, have you noticed the biggest difference between Su Zu and other players?"

On the sidelines, assistant coach Wang Yuanbin looked at Su Zu's rematch results and inquired about Li Zhizhong, who was also watching the game.

"Oh? Yuanbin, what did you find? Li Zhizhong turned his head sideways and smiled, this young assistant coach is better than the few he has brought before, he can communicate with athletes in a relaxed posture, and his brain is flexible, he has a clear understanding of himself, and knows how to draw inferences from many things.

The level of being a coach is not terrible, what I am afraid of is not being able to understand myself correctly, self-righteousness, and no one is convinced.

The most important thing for a coach is to be able to clearly understand their own strengths and weaknesses, which areas can bring progress and growth to athletes, and which aspects need to be turned to the outside world, or send athletes to a higher level of training. That's what a good coach has.

And if you can put down your posture, this can unite the team, and the reason why many athletes fall out with the first coach after becoming famous is not the exchange of status. People grow, athletes get older and more successful, and coaches also need to pay attention to the thinking brought about by the change of role.

Wang Yuanbin pondered for a while, and then discussed with Li Zhizhong: "Coach Li, I found that as a competitive sport, it is normal for ordinary athletes to have ups and downs in different competitions, right?" ”

Li Zhizhong nodded, this is natural, due to the intensity of the usual training, and the difference between different places during the competition, the athletes are tired and need to adapt, and it is impossible to be in the best condition every time.

"That's it, I made a graph of Su Zu's 100-meter results before. I don't need to talk about the growth trend, you know it. An important point is that, apart from some training and test adjustments, Su Zu's 100-meter performance is particularly stable. Since he started professional training, as long as he has created new results after a breakthrough, there has been very little slippage. ”

Then Wang Yuanbin looked at the data of various competitions and training results recorded before, "This preliminaries are 10.38 seconds, and the rematch just now is 10.40 seconds, which is basically a horizontal line." The only time the results of the competition fell, it was the last time you counted the rematch of the Chinese Games, when you said that he was affected by heat stroke. ”

"That's right, it's 10.8 seconds." Speaking of this, Li Zhizhong also felt that Su Zu's state and mentality were sometimes so stable that they were not like people of this age, and every time his results broke through to a level, he could stabilize and make it a norm.

It's a rarity.

Some athletes may occasionally be able to run once or twice in training or competition, but soon return to normal. And Su Zu's progress is a step-by-step rise, for example, he ran to 10.39 seconds in the Chinese Games, and the subsequent results are basically revolving around this, and they are still rising steadily. I went up one step and stood still.

"In this way, I think it is better to go back and build a training task file, summarize all the data, and then make a reference with the improvement in the performance of the world's top players. Yuanbin, you are still sensitive to data, and the growth of this kind of individual may not be enough to form a database for reference, but if it accumulates to a certain extent and enters enough athlete growth records, it is still very valuable for cultivating new athletes in the future. ”

Wang Yuanbin nodded, he is a coach from a sports school, he is young and ambitious, and sooner or later he will start to take charge of himself. Some work does not have to be done meticulously, but he can grasp the right direction and have evidence, which is still very meaningful in the selection and training of athletes in the future.

While the two were talking, on the track of the stadium, the men's 100-meter semi-final ended, and then a large number of staff entered and began to put up the 110-meter hurdles, followed by the men's 110-meter hurdles final.

In international competitions, due to the large number of competitors and other reasons, the interval between the 100m and 110m hurdles events is relatively long. It mainly depends on the arrangement of the organizing committee of the event, and the simple track and field events sometimes have a much more compact competition density than the comprehensive games.

In 13.29 seconds, Liu Yangyu ran in the 110-meter hurdles final and successfully won the championship of the Grand Prix Baozhou Station. This result is basically invincible in China and even in Asia, and it is also very eye-catching in international competitions.

After the men's 110m hurdles, the men's 100m final will take place. Su Zu was assigned to the fifth lane of the final pass, and the fourth lane was the veteran of the Bayi Workers team who narrowly defeated him in the rematch.

said to be a veteran, in fact, he is not very old, but he is only twenty-four or five years old, but he is indeed a hundred battles in the short track field, and has experienced various large and small events, and has rich experience. The 10.39 seconds in the rematch is also one of the best individual results of the veteran of the Bayi Gong Team in recent years.

Su Zuchang took a long breath, shook his spirits, and every time he walked on the starting line, he was ready to go all out!

On the other side, in the rest and viewing area of Hedao City, Li Zhizhong and members of the coaching staff were also nervously staring at Su Zu, who was about to start the final on the track.

"Lao Yu, let's go over now?"

In the stands not far from them, Nian Feng glanced at the men's 100m final that was about to start and asked.

"Let's wait, this final is not over, how can people be in the mood to deal with us." Yu Liwei said with a smile that as a coach, he can best understand this kind of mood before the game, and many times he is more nervous than the athletes on the field.

Nian Feng thought about it, and the two of them casually found a place to stand and sit down, watching the 100-meter final that would start soon.

Gunshots rang out, and people rushed out like dragons and tigers!

The sprint race is beautiful at this moment, because the time is so short, almost everyone who watches the race has wide eyes, and they don't want to miss the slightest action.

From the start to the acceleration to the crossing line, the performance of about 10 seconds is a competitive blockbuster, every competitor has to bring out the best state, a little bit of the pool, in the field will be infinitely magnified.

"So fast!"

Nian Feng tightened his fist, he is an old sportsman, and he has watched the players up close I don't know how many games, but every time I see the instant explosion of the players, the sprint of the physical limit, and the distorted expression due to the best of his ability, I always unconsciously have a feeling of blood boiling.

"Huh? There seems to be a change in running posture and stride length. Yu Liwei's angle of watching the game is naturally different from ordinary people, in this final, he observed a little, and keenly found that Su Zu's game this time was different from the previous preliminaries.

On the field, Su Zu's running rhythm is quite different from the previous preliminaries, his original 100-meter stride is 48 steps, with his height and size, this stride is quite small, the main reason is not that his stride is not big, but that the too fast cadence allows him to accelerate fast at the start, but also improves the number of steps.

Previously, at the Hedao City Competition Management Center, he had begun to try to change the number of running steps under the guidance of the coaching staff, but this change came from long-term physiological habits and could not be changed overnight.

In this final, Su Zu is trying to make such a change. Generally, there are not many players who dare to take such a risk in this kind of large-scale event, but Su Zu's motivation for participating is different from that of other players, and he is not for the time being to accumulate personal points and rankings, so he has the capital of trial and error. Training is training, and what is used in the game is the real skill.

Li Zhizhong and Wang Yuanbin of the coaching staff of Hedao City on the sidelines frowned, and their expressions were even more nervous, and they naturally could see that Su Zu's group of running methods was a way to try to optimize in training.

During the fast running, Su Zu could clearly feel the impact of changing his stride. For example, in the acceleration stage of the start, it was easy to take advantage and seize the opportunity with his fast cadence in the past, but now he suddenly increased his stride, and each step of acceleration required more force, and it would be a lot more difficult to lead in the first twenty or thirty meters, but once the acceleration was completed, the speed of the whole person would rise.

In fact, it is easy to improve the stride length, but in vigorous running, the strong habitual strength of the body is not so easy to change. And this kind of change is only an attempt at present, and it is not possible to say whether it is good or bad.

What Su Zu is doing now is mainly to increase the height of his habitual leg lifts, increase the power of kicking the ground, and the swing amplitude of his arms, these movements are far from solidifying, and the center of gravity of the whole person is not too stable when running, and there are still a few floats.

However, this kind of technical running optimization, the current effect is still significantly improved, and he ran a record of 10.18 seconds in the training ground.

And in this final, Su Zu once again refreshed his personal best in history, 10.36 seconds! Although there is no big explosion, it is already the men's 100m champion at the Baozhou Station of the National Track and Field Grand Prix.

This is also what Wang Yuanbin discovered, Su Zu's results are particularly stable, and there are almost no ups and downs. It seems really incredible to others! It is difficult for an athlete to maintain such a good state, and of course Su Zu can't tell anyone, this is the benefit of digitization of physical attributes, in the words of physics, that is, it can have a relatively constant output and work.

The performance of this group of men's 100m finalists is also above the horizontal line, especially with the dark horse protrusion and the power of veterans, the finalists are basically full of strength.

In the end, there were 6 people who ran into 10.50 seconds, among which in addition to Su Zu, there was another person who ran within 10.40 seconds, and the veteran of the Bayi team won the second place in the final with a time of 10.39 seconds.

"The coaching staff in Hedao City still has some ideas, and the athletes dare to try." Yu Liwei said silently in his heart, seeing the meaning behind it from the change in Su Zu's running rhythm.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go over and congratulate the champion." At the end of the finals, Yu Liwei also got up and walked to the viewing area where the Hedao City team was located.

"Huh! Lao Yu, your cheeks are rising, digging someone and setting such a high-sounding reason. Nian Feng smiled, twisted his waist and helped the belt of his trousers, and walked over.
