"For decades, athletics in our country has put training at the top of the list, and competition has been at the bottom of the list as a foil and supporting role. For a long time, few people have studied the relationship between training and competition, let alone the important role of competition in the progress of performance and project development, and even some athletes have practiced all their lives without knowing that the purpose of training is competition.

To use an analogy, it is like a farmer who cultivates the land and works hard, and there are natural and man-made disasters that are good for the wind and rain, but after a hard year, the crops are ripe but they are not harvested, or only a small part of the harvest is discarded, and the rest is left to rot in the ground. This practice of just working hard and not caring about the harvest has wasted a lot of manpower, material and financial resources year after year, and has also delayed the youth of many athletes. This cannot continue. Therefore, it is earnestly suggested that the reform and innovation of competition work should be treated from the perspective of liberating the productive forces......"

In the office of the principal of Xiushui No. 2 Middle School, Wen Tongshi looked at the report in his hand, and then looked up at Nie Fangping, who was making tea on the reception sofa in front of him, and asked with a puzzled face: "Old Nie, my Nie coach, what report are you showing me?" ”

Nie Fangping took a slow sip of tea, smashed it, and then slowly spoke: "A few days ago, I went to Linzhou to participate in the National Indoor Championships, and a coach from Sheng Hai showed me, this is some of his own experience, I hope I will pay attention to Ye Qin's training in the future." ”

"No, Lao Nie, I want to know how the school can cooperate with you?" Wen Tongshi frowned and pointed to the report in his hand, "I'm not from your sports system, you just keep it simple and say I can do something, right?" ”

"It's a combination of practice and competition. The focus is to integrate training and competition, regard competition as a special means of training, use competition methods to better develop athletes' various competitive abilities, improve the intensity of special loads and technical and tactical levels, and improve the psychological stability of participants. ”

Nie Fangping put down the teacup in his hand, leaned back on the sofa, and exhaled gently, "To put it simply, it is to let Ye Qin participate in more competitions, and the number of competitions will be greatly increased exponentially, and Ye Qin will still participate in too few competitions." ”

After returning from Linzhou, Nie Fangping read the report given to him by Sun Chaosheng, and also seriously thought about what Sun Chaosheng said.

He has been in the sports system for more than 30 years, although he is just a coach of a sports school, but he has a thorough understanding of many problems in the domestic sports system.

For example, in 2002, Sun Chaosheng took Liu Yangyu to participate in the International Indoor Track and Field Championships, and the frequency of the competition was Stockholm, Sweden on February 6, Ghent, Belgium on February 10, Athens, Greece on February 20, and Levin France on February 24.

Four races in a month, two of which won the world junior record, and one game was misjudged and exited. After the international indoor track and field competition, he returned to China almost non-stop to participate in the National Track and Field Grand Prix.

If some sprint coaches and athletes in China or other sprinters, more than 90% may choose to abandon the race, the reason is very "sufficient", first of all, there is a record-breaking performance to improve the performance in the front, can already be handed over or comfortable for a while, "muscle reaction is large", "time is too close, easy to injury", "after improving the performance is a little tired, need to adjust the rest, prepare for the Asian Games" and so on are high-sounding reasons.

This kind of conservative, narrow-minded, short-sighted, and only focused on the "two taels of oil on the butt of the chicken" has stubbornly entrenched itself in the issue of competition for decades, so that many athletes of different generations have lost the opportunity to improve and progress.

Like this time, the main reason for participating in the Linzhou Station of the National Indoor Track and Field Championships is that Ye Qin wants to compete, and the reason is naturally the careful thinking of young people.

But after Ye Qin made a lot of progress in the men's 400m and men's 200m indoor competitions, Nie Fangping found that his first reaction was that he also didn't want to continue to let Ye Qin compete. I feel that it should be properly rested and adjusted, there are also many reasons, this indoor competition itself is not in his plan, it is already very good to have such results, and he should continue to pay attention to basic training in normal times, for fear that Ye Qin will be injured, after all, he is young, and he is still a student to take care of his studies and so on.

There is no hint of his own inherent old notions at work.

He felt that Ye Qin jumped out of the traditional sports system and did not have to take on the pressure of big competitions and various tasks assigned by his superiors, but it also made Ye Qin too comfortable.

At this stage, Ye Qin has not been training for too long, and his personal growth experience has made him tough enough in character and hard enough in training, but if it is a long time, after a long time, Nie Fangping does not dare to guarantee that the young man will not be complacent with his current achievements, and lose the motivation and goal to continue to move forward.

After all, simple training is boring and boring, and if there is no constant stimulation of various competitions, it is not conducive to growth.

This is also the question that I was thinking about after a brief meeting with Sun Chaosheng recently, whether I should adjust Ye Qin's training direction.

On the one hand, he wanted Ye Qin to have a longer time to carry out basic training and grow slowly, but on the other hand, he was also worried that this way would hinder Ye Qin's growth.

At least for now, he hasn't seen the upper limit of Ye Qin's talent, but he can't ignore it for this reason, there are some things that need to be guarded against.

Analogous to a typical situation, after the growth and development of adolescents, there is a period of time when the height of the individual grows the fastest, and this time is often only one year or half a year, or even a few months, which is the kind of time that suddenly 5 cm and 10 cm rush up.

At this time, parents or teenagers themselves are not aware of it, or if they hold the mentality that they will grow in the future, and ignore nutritional supplements and physical exercise, miss the best growth and development period, and wait until the epiphyseal line is closed and gradually closed in the later stage, and then want to make up for it through diet and exercise, even if it is effective, it can only be half the effort.

The peak time point of track and field athletes is generally around 22-25 years old (with a few exceptions), and the fastest stage of personal growth is also around 189-212.

After the fastest growth stage, it does not mean that the results will not improve, but compared with the best growth stage, the effect obtained through a more scientific and reasonable way will definitely be greatly reduced.

"That's a good thing!" Wen Tongshi stood up, walked to the reception sofa in front of Nie Fangping and sat down, and asked with a smile, "Since participating in more competitions can improve Ye Qin's level, why don't you go, isn't it a simple matter?" ”

"It's pretty simple." Nie Fangping nodded and smiled, it was really not complicated to say.

In terms of time, Ye Qin can continue to train under him for more than a year, and since he can adopt a new training model to grow better, naturally there is nothing to say.

Now that he has handed over the report to Wen Tongshi today, he has almost made up his mind in his heart.

"Even after that, the cost of the competition may become a big expense, and even if there is a competition in the future, this cost still needs to go from the school."

In the past, whether Ye Qin went to participate in the World Junior Championships or the City Games, this part of the cost was borne by someone, but if it was a large number of participants in the future, the unit to which it belonged would be different, and some expenses could only be borne by Xiushui No. 2 Middle School.

Ye Qin's current athlete registration is in Haixi Province, but it is not considered in the sports system, even if the local government is willing to bear a part, before Ye Qin's results are not dazzling enough, it will not be too much. Moreover, the matter of fighting each other, as well as receiving some unnecessary restrictions, is also something that Nie Fangping does not want to see.

"Old Nie, you can do it." At this time, Wen Tongshi already knew that Nie Fangping had come to him today to ask for money, but he was not disgusted, and smiled disapprovingly, "We have done so much, we can't give up halfway, how can we cultivate people!" ”

"I'm relieved to have you say this, so it's decided." Nie Fangping stood up with a smile, ready to go out and leave the office, just took two steps, suddenly turned around and said: "If the mode of training by competition and training while competing is really effective, hehe, Wen Xiao, maybe in addition to the World Youth Championships in July, Xiushui No. 2 Middle School can also jump out of a player to participate in the Olympic Games." ”

"Olympics?"

Wen Tongshi grew his mouth, and looked at Nie Fangping who went out in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
