Chapter 122: Tactics

19 seconds in 10 seconds?!

Hearing this achievement, Su Zu just had a little excitement on his face, and he disappeared in a flash.

"I'm improving, but so are others."

Su Zu turned around and looked at the track, the runners in the fourth group had already finished, far outside the finish line. Several figures flickered in his sight, and he didn't see where Chen Jian was for a while.

Su Zu has heard a lot of news that Chen Jian is in good shape this year since the beginning of the year, and he has run several times in training with a time of about 10.20 seconds.

From the indoor competition in February and March to the Yangcheng Station of the Track and Field Grand Prix, although Su Zu won these competitions, the level of these competitions was relatively low, and the indoor competition was 60 meters, in fact, the gap was extremely limited.

As for Chen Jian's World Championships in August, which stopped at the preliminaries, this is what everyone expected early on, no matter who goes, it is actually the same, and there is still a big gap between the level of domestic players and the world-class first-class level at this stage. Su Zu's heart also wants to see the current level of top international athletes.

Su Zu and Chen Jian, as well as Yang Guangzong and other team members, usually train in the 100 meters, each has its own head coach, and the technical style is also different, and they are usually separated. Only when doing relay training, everyone runs laps to practice handing over the baton, and they will train together.

Although they usually don't compete in the team and practice 100 meters together, after getting familiar with each other, Su Zu also clearly felt that Chen Jian's strength in 100 meters surpassed Yang Guangzong and Shen Yunbao.

When he ran the fourth baton off the bench, Shen Yunbao handed over the baton to the third baton and Chen Jian ran it, and the starting speed he needed was obviously different.

Shen Yunbao's speed dropped after 60 meters, but Chen Jian still maintained the peak of speed from 50 meters to 80 meters. This personal feeling is especially profound when he takes the baton from two people.

Chen Jian is just over 22 years old this year, almost 23 years old, excluding some special factors, it is the peak age of a sprinter. It is also the stage when many people are optimistic about it and can run good results.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jian did not break out in various competitions in the first half of the year, and finally waited for the second half of the year to break out.

And this outbreak ran into the threshold of 10.20 seconds.

This is a threshold for the men's 100m event in domestic track and field, from the beginning of the domestic electronic timing in 1978 to the present, there is only one sprinter who can run 10.20 seconds.

"It's stable."

On the viewing platform not far from the competition area, Yu Liwei jumped up from his seat at once, smiling like a flower on his face.

"Two A standards, two A standards, next year, we will be able to have two people participate in the men's 100-meter event for the first time. I originally thought that if there was a World Championships when the list of the Olympic Games was determined next year, then I would push Su Zu up no matter what, but I didn't expect that he was competitive enough and directly gave me a standard A result. Well, Chen Jian is not bad either. Lao Lu, you retired early this time, why don't you bring more of such a good disciple. ”

In the seat next to Yu Liwei, it was Coach Lu Jianming, who had not appeared in the track and field for a while, with an unsmiling face, and a somewhat relieved smile at this time.

"Don't fight, I've been strong all my life, and there's nothing I can't see until now. When this Coach Li Zhizhong came, I saw it. He is a level, I am an old bone, in addition to being able to suppress him with qualifications, I can also come up with something, and I can't make a ...... When I was a coach Lu Jianming, I used the same set in the army, which is outdated, and the people now are not as good as before. You see, Su Zu has been in my hands for a few months and in the hands of Li Zhizhong, he is also good iron, so I can't beat good steel. ”

"Hey, you old stubborn, there are times when you bow your head and admit defeat, you're really ready to retreat, you're leaving, who will support me in the future." Lao Feng has more cards in his hand than me. Yu Liwei pointed at Lu Jianming, the excitement on his face receded slightly, sat down again, and sighed loudly.

"You, alas, you were all athletes, and now you have climbed up, and like everyone else, you have started to play the game of fighting for power. Interesting?! Doing a good job in our country's sports construction is fundamental. What more cards do you want, having a good card in your hand is better than a thousand others. Lu Jianming glanced at Yu Liwei and said with a faint expression.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. It's boring to bring it up, so you can rest assured to be your referee in the future. Yu Liwei shook his head and changed the topic, "By the way, you don't want to see this disciple of yours, how can you say that you also dug and recommended it to me at the Chinese Games." This master-apprentice title is gone, so there is always a recommendation. ”

"Don't say it so nicely, I'm a transitional figure. Wait and see how about the final in the evening. Lu Jianming looked at the arena and sighed silently, as if he was a little distracted.

……

"Chen Jian's state has really exploded."

Li Zhizhong watched the results of the men's 100m preliminaries come out, and Chen Jian ranked first with a time of 10.19 seconds, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, he's been in great shape this year."

Su Zu returned to the rest area and took a towel to wipe the sweat off his face.

This 100-meter run does not seem far away, but because each trip is a sudden germination of the athlete's whole body strength, from the stationary adjustment to the highest speed of the body, the work done, the energy consumed, and the heat generated are very large.

When an athlete runs, he may not sweat at all, but as soon as he stops after running, his body begins to dissipate a lot of heat, and in a few seconds, he is sweating profusely.

"You'd love to win this title?" Li Zhizhong suddenly turned his head and glanced at Su Zu, although it was a clear answer, he still wanted to confirm it again.

"Of course, I want to win all the games."

"Do you really want to?"

"Really."

Su Zu nodded, wiped the sweat on his face with a towel, and suddenly saw that Li Zhizhong's expression was a little strange, so he reacted immediately, and asked in a low voice, "Coach, you don't want me to eat anything, do you?" ”

"Phew." Li Zhizhong scolded lightly, and quickly glanced around, "What nonsense, I warn you, no matter how much you want to get results from these things, don't touch them, you remember this to me, and it will be over if you touch it." You don't know what the long-distance running army became like back then, don't die for me! ”

"I'm sure I won't touch it." Seeing that Li Zhizhong said solemnly, Su Zu sat up straight and became serious, "I want to win, but a game is a game, and I won't mix those messy things." ”

Not to mention that Su Zu's heart would not be contaminated with these things, even if he really touched them, he also knew that there were few things that could not be found. There is some international news that can be suppressed, and that is because of the wealth and power of America, and everyone has to sell a little face. Besides, even if it is Lao Mei, sooner or later there will be times when it can't be covered.

One of the best sprinters of this stage, Tim Montgomery, beat Maurice Green at the 2002 IAAF Grand Prix Finals in Paris, breaking the world record with a time of 9.78 seconds.

It hasn't been exposed yet, but in a few years' time the scandal at Balco's lab will reveal that Montgomery, the athlete who has created all kinds of sprinting miracles with his short stature, will have all his results canceled since 2001.

"That's good. Don't mention this kind of thing in the future, it will ruin your life, you have to have some professional ethics and bottom line. You have the talent and strength to get those honors, don't make a mistake and hate it for eternity. Li Zhizhong breathed a sigh of relief and instructed again.

Su Zu nodded, I never thought of relying on drugs and drugs. Looking at Li Zhizhong, he asked with some confusion, "Then coach, you are mysterious, what do you mean?" ”

"I just took a look, you ran steadily this time, but you started slowly, didn't you?" Li Zhizhong asked.

"Yes, it may have been too long since I played, and the moment I heard the gunshot, my body didn't feel as fast as before." Su Zu nodded, it was indeed because there was no competition for a while, and the feeling in the arena was completely different from the usual training, although the overall results were good, and the physical condition was very good, but it was not as fast as the indoor competition and the Grand Prix.

Li Zhizhong pondered for a while, and said: "The results of you and Chen Jian in the preliminaries are mainly on this starting reaction, I just went to check your starting reaction time, Chen Jian is 0.137 seconds, you are 0.178 seconds." If you want to win the championship, it's best to close the gap. ”

"Coach, you mean the gun?" Su Zu suddenly came to his senses, and his eyes flashed faintly.

Athletes usually use two different strategies when starting from the race: listening to the gun and pressing the gun. The so-called listening to the gun and running is to start after hearing the starting order and the referee fire the gun.

The pressure gun run is that the athlete starts the rhythm according to the referee's habit, and strives to start at the same time as the starting gun sounds. For sprinting and sprinting events, the start is very crucial, and athletes usually use two different strategies when starting to listen to the gun and press the gun to run.

In events such as sprints, due to the close distance of the run, it is impossible to perform various positions in the middle and long distances, and the technique of leading and disrupting the rhythm of others with speed changes.

Before 2010, the starting rules still allowed one chance to rush, and the second run would be punished, so in various large and small sprint events, there will be athletes who use this tactic of pressing the gun to run.

The top athletes' starting reflexes are fast for a long time, but the extreme starting reflexes of 0.104 seconds like Tim Montgomery are certainly impossible without the element of a pressure gun.

As early as when Su Zu participated in the regular provincial track and field invitational tournament for the first time, he encountered an opponent who pressed the gun and ran away. This is a tactic that combines risk and opportunity.

"For the runners, a lot of experience depends on experience and listening to the rhythm of the referee's orders. In sprinting, many top athletes have poor starting reflexes when they first enter the field. But by the middle and late stages of their careers, these riders were getting faster and faster to start and get off to a better start. One aspect is the effect of long-term training, and the other is that they have participated in more events and accumulated rich competition experience, whether it is listening to the rush or pressing the gun running, it can be just right. Li Zhizhong told Su Zu in detail about the situation of pressing the gun and running, this is not cheating, nor is it a despicable method, but a reasonable tactic within the rules.

"If you want to try it, the first shot can be considered. If you rush once, it will cause a lot of psychological pressure, you must remember that the second shot must be steady, do not press the gun. Even if you don't run with your current strength, you still have a chance to win Chen Jian and win the championship. ”
