Rongcheng No. 2 Hospital and the Provincial Sports Team are cooperative units, and the two sides are also close to each other, and many times the physical examination and testing items of athletes are done in the No. 2 Hospital.

Su Zu followed Shen Guoying's assistant coach, the one who tested him for sprinting, a young man surnamed Liu.

The advantage of the partner is that many of the routine processes are much simpler, and there are medical staff who are responsible for this aspect to assist. First, Su Zu was tested for height and weight, lung capacity, electrocardiogram and other routine items, and then he did liver work and X-rays of his wrists and knees in the orthopedic department.

By the time the physical examination test was over, the young assistant teacher Liu had already taken a stack of freshly washed X-rays. Generally, after the X-ray is taken, if you want to take it, you often have to wait for an hour or two, and only this kind of familiar cooperative unit, the action is much faster, only about ten minutes.

The two returned to the track and field training ground of the provincial team, and the assistant coach surnamed Liu handed over the stack of Su Zu's bone X-rays to Shen Guoying.

"The doctor said that the bone age is too old, and the epiphyseal line is basically closed."

Shen Guoying carefully looked at the X-photo in front of the light, and the assistant teacher next to him whispered.

"If the bone age is too old, it is not easy to grow taller if the epiphyseal line is closed. But we're a track team, not a basketball team, so that's fine. ”

Shen Guoying's voice was not small, and he didn't avoid Zhuang Tao and Su Zu, who were watching him from the side, but handed the X photo into the hands of the two.

As he spoke, he asked the assistant teacher surnamed Liu, "What about the others?" ”

"Oh, it's all here, only liver function tests take time." The assistant teacher surnamed Liu took out a few pages from his bag and submitted the report of the detailed data after the physical examination to Shen Guoying.

"Huh?"

Shen Guoying looked at the report sheet in his hand and was slightly surprised, raised his head to look at Su Zu, and then looked down at the report sheet. Suspiciously, he asked, "Su Zu, what was your height before?" ”

"When I entered the sports school test in December, it was 1.72 meters, and then it grew a few centimeters during the Spring Festival, almost 1.75 meters." Su Zu replied.

"But you're 177.5 centimeters now, which is a little weird, it's not the same as your X-ray." Shen Guoying touched his chin and thought slightly for a while.

When Su Zu heard the news, he understood that with the improvement of his various attribute values, the person grew taller again and became stronger. In fact, it was in October last year that he was really reborn to obtain the system, and he had already grown seven or eight centimeters in height.

This height increase may not feel particularly obvious day and night, but if you see it every once in a while, you will find that the change is amazing.

"What's the matter, Coach Shen, is there any problem?" Zhuang Tao is the most impatient with Shen Guoying, this person may be a habit developed after staying abroad for a long time, he likes to talk about data, he must be meticulous, and all kinds of details must be exhausted for reasons.

"If you look at it, it is unlikely that you will grow taller at this level of bone development. But judging from the information you provided me, Su Zu has grown almost 6 centimeters in the past five or six months. Shen Guoying pointed to the X photo in his hand to Zhuang Tao, and there was a little doubt in his eyes.

Zhuang Tao squinted and looked at it, and raised his eyebrows inadvertently, as a coach, he will look at the development level of bone age and epiphyseal line, because it is related to the physical growth of the player. was mentioned by Shen Guoying like this, Zhuang Tao really felt a little strange.

Because he and Su Zu have been together for a long time, they usually don't particularly notice the change in height, and in the eyes of a big man of 1.9 meters, a few centimeters long of 1.7 meters is really inconspicuous.

After looking at the X-rays a few times, I walked in front of Su Zu and used my height as a reference, and I really found that there had been a lot of changes.

"It's a lot longer."

"Epiphyseal line closure is generally not easy to regrow, however, some may be pseudo-closure, which may not be seen much and is easy to misunderstand." Shen Guoying himself gave an explanation.

But in fact, Su Zu completely understood when he heard this, it may be that he developed early, and his height was a little more than 1.7 meters in his previous life, and he basically didn't grow much since the second year of junior high school.

And in this life, due to the enhancement of the system's attributes, he was forced to need a taller and stronger body to match the improved attributes. This is one of the reasons why he eats much more than the average person.

"Sprinting doesn't have that much to do with height, does it?" Zhuang Tao compared Su Zu's height, turned his head back and asked Shen Guoying.

In sprinting, height is one of the reference factors, running speed depends on cadence and stride length, high height means that the legs will be relatively longer than those of low height, so the stride length is much larger. However, the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, the frequency is generally low.

At this time, the black lightning had not yet dominated, and it was Morris Green who dominated the sprint arena, a runner of average height but too strong to speak.

Shen Guoying obviously had a detailed study of this, and said after a while: "I have done an IAAF athlete height analysis before, most of the top sprinters are between 1.80 meters and 1.90 meters, and the average height of international outstanding sprinters is 1.85 meters, and the selection of materials in this range is the most ergonomic and kinematic. The general advantage of Asian athletes is that the center of gravity is low and the pace is fast, but the natural shortcomings are small stride, and the disadvantages of insufficient height, short legs and small stride length are difficult to overcome. ”

Of course, there are some exceptions, and the 100m champion at the Sydney Olympics, Morris Green, is only about 1.76m tall, but that can't be generalized. The short sprinter has his advantages, but it is not the mainstream internationally. ”

"Coach Shen, don't talk about these things too much, I'm probably going to do the test and physical examination, now you can give me a straight word, can Su Zu enter the provincial team?" Zhuang Tao was a little anxious.

"Well, I'm sorry, I'm off topic." Shen Guoying was slightly embarrassed, he felt that he had learned a lot of advanced experience and returned to China, put data to tell the facts, and referred to international players, but when he returned to reality, what he had to face was far from the scene he imagined. If you want to refer to black sprinters to select materials, at least in Ronghai Province in China, the difficulties and obstacles encountered are not ordinary.

"Coach Zhuang, you were originally an athlete, and now that you are a coach, you should understand the upper limit of talent. If he is seventeen or eighteen years old today and can run like this, I will stay without saying a word. This is in line with the physique and growth of the yellow race, and I have always disapproved of the short-term breakthrough made by pulling out the seedlings. ”

If the yellow race is too tall, the athletic ability is poor, and the strength and flexibility cannot keep up. The 100-meter run requires explosiveness and flexibility, and the yellow people who engage in sprinting are generally small. One of Shen Guoying's doubts is that you have squeezed too hard, allowing the potential of athletes to be exhausted prematurely, which affects the growth of the future.

This kind of imagination is actually very common in China, or as he discussed with Xie Caiwen before, a sprinter, if he shows his talent too early, will attract the attention of many coaches, but in the end, it is not the majority who can really make up their minds to cultivate.

Because of his age, the results at a young age mean that the athlete's upper limit has reached early. Many special coaches select athletes more to look at the body rather than the results, confident coaches as long as the student has the potential he can practice results, and due to the popularity of scientific training, many provincial team coaches have begun to press the results, that is, to do more basic training, unlike some places, primary and junior high school track and field will reach the second level, or even the first level, this kind of results too early is actually ruined life.

Coming out too early comes from high-intensity training, which makes the body decline in terms of growth.

"Coach Shen said that he is not optimistic, and he thinks that my team members have not developed much in the later stage, right?" Zhuang Tao's face sank a little, and after a few days of hard work, he asked Su Zu to hurry over from Jianping, after all, there was no hope of entering the provincial team.

"Coach Zhuang, I'm sorry. I don't have a lot of data to support my theory, and most of the previous studies have been on black players, but the physiological differences don't fully apply. The athletes I am training now are all selected after I evaluate them in many ways, and the former first-team players will soon be transferred to the second-tier team or transferred to other provinces. The province has given me support, so I will definitely make some achievements in the next few years. ”

"Coach, let's go back." Su Zu listened to it for a long time, and he already understood that the coach of this provincial team was not optimistic about himself at all, and this time he came to do a test, and it was still the face of the coach Zeng Huizhen, the teacher of Zhuang Tao.

It's no wonder that the phone call said it was a meeting, not a tryout.

"Thank you, Coach Shen." Su Zu said hello to Shen Guoying, and he didn't have any frustration.

After all, he has experienced the world, not to mention rejection and frustration. There is a systematic blessing along the way, thinking that if you show talent, you will be valued, but this is not necessarily the case. Talent is such a thing, you can't see or touch it, you think you have it, I think you don't have it.

Some people value it as if it were a treasure, while others discard it as if it were a piece of clothing. Life can't always be smooth sailing, even if you are reborn, even if you open a cheat.

As for who is right and who is wrong, in the end, it is still up to the results of the game.

Since this is the case, there is no need to ask for help, Su Zu is confident that the system is promoting growth, it is nothing more than training hard and working hard, where will he not be able to break out.

"Wait......"

Shen Guoying suddenly stopped the two who were about to leave, "You wait for me for five minutes." ”

Su Zu and Zhuang Tao looked at each other, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Shen Guoying's gourd. After waiting in place for a while, he hurried out of the office and gave the two of them a letter of recommendation.

"I just called, let's go to the Hedao City team, which is more suitable than the provincial team, to prove that I have lost my eyes."
