Chapter 51: A Contest Between Masters
In the following competition, the star players of each event showed their abilities in front of everyone, which was undoubtedly a grand performance for athletes and coaches from all over the world.
Lu Wei did not leave after the game, but continued to watch the next game with the two coaches who guided him. Watching other people's games is also a learning process for Lu Wei, and after feeling the smooth rhythm of Varina, Lu Wei has a deep understanding.
Almost every of the top athletes in this event has its own unique side, and some of them are like Varina, with a strong sense of rhythm and movement when running.
Other athletes either use their tactics well in the game or always find the last chance to score the final moment of the game.
Lu Wei watched these athletes compete, and he was also carefully experiencing how he felt when he was exercising. Compared to Varina, he is like a force with every step in the race, and if he wants to run as fast and powerful as he wants to run in the next step, he has to push the ground with all his might.
When the opponent surpasses himself, Lu Wei can clearly feel the smoothness of his movements, he thinks that such an ability obviously depends on comprehension, and there is no way to practice this kind of smooth effect by training alone.
Lu Wei has been experiencing this feeling in his heart, but it is still difficult for his body to feel like this.
The competition went to the last item, and I didn't know the schedule in advance, just looking at the reaction of the audience, people who knew track and field knew that Liu Feiren was going to play next.
On the big screen, Liu Feiren stood on the runway, smiling confidently and waving to the audience.
The audience burst into applause and cheers, but Liu Feiren still kept smiling, in his eyes, this was just an ordinary game.
On the contrary, Robles, who stood beside him with a serious expression, gave people the feeling that he was holding back a lot of energy all over his body, ready to fight hard with Liu Feiren at any time.
"Shh It took two or three reminders from the commentators to silence the spectators. Everyone also understands that the athletes should be given enough quiet environment at the start.
With the referee's order, the eight athletes immediately left the starting block and sprinted towards the first hurdle.
Liu Feiren's start was not outstanding, only in 3 or 4 places, and the lead was Robles.
"Liu Feiren's state is average, the start feels a little difficult, Robles starts very hard, and it is a little difficult to win today." Director Jiang immediately analyzed the situation at the beginning of the race.
It wasn't until the third hurdle that Liu Fei moved a little up from the crowd.
Lu Wei could also see that Liu Feiren seemed to be running a little hard today, maybe he was not in good shape, and his every hurdle was obvious, as if he was afraid that he would hit the hurdle.
Robles' athleticism was already outstanding, and the few steps between each hurdle today were full of strength and knots, and he ran alone in front, almost a metre ahead of the team behind him.
In the seventh hurdle, Liu Fei broke through from the second group and began to approach Robles. Talking about the technology between the columns, Liu Feiren's current strength is unmatched.
Robles' momentum continues unabated, and Liu Feiren has also started to get into shape, and now he has begun to attack the hurdle and stick to the hurdle.
The back 3 hurdles, Robles probably also realized that Liu Feiren had a tendency to overtake, so every time he attacked the hurdle, the hurdle leg was pressed down very much, almost after coming over, he would bring down the hurdle, this state is already the limit of the hurdle, and it is possible to trip over the hurdle if he is not careful.
However, he was very hard to top up, blocking Liu Feiren's powerful offensive, and at the last moment, the two of them lowered their heads and pressed the line, almost reaching the finish line at the same time. However, it can still be seen that Robles is slightly ahead, and the advantage is very small.
Liu Feiren, who ended the game, crossed his hands on his waist and gasped for breath, which could be seen that he was struggling in this game. Robles stood beside him, both of them staring up at the big screen in the arena.
Less than a minute later, the results of the participating athletes were announced on the big screen, Robles won the championship with a time of 13.13 seconds, and Liu Feiren's time was 13.16 seconds, and the difference between the two was only a millimeter.
This result is not good for the two of them, during the National Track and Field Championships, Liu Feiren can still run within 13 seconds and 10 seconds in the final while maintaining high-intensity training every day. There was only one shot in today's game, and the result can only be described as unsatisfactory.
In recent years, he has achieved a time of 13.10 seconds in the 110 hurdles, not to mention winning the championship, and even the hope of finishing on the podium is slim.
At this time, all the games of the Golden League Shanghai Station were over, and Coach Sun took Liu Feiren into the athletes' lounge to start making post-game adjustments. Liu Feiren was lying on the massage table, and the masseur in the coaching team was seizing the time to relax Liu Feiren's muscles.
Director Jiang also took Wang Qiao and Lu Wei into the lounge: "Xiao Liu looks like he has been practicing very hard this year!" I don't look excited when I compete, my muscles are of average strength, and I'm about to compete in the World Championships, so don't train our world champions. ”
"The training has been on the intensity for more than a month, and the intensity was reduced only 3 days ago. In the next ten days, we will focus on adjustment, and we will not arrange high-intensity subjects for training. By the way, Xiao Lu's performance today is also good, he actually ran into 45 seconds, and the competition changes a different way, I think the World Championships have the hope of hitting the medals. ”
Instructor Sun and Instructor Jiang exchanged information about Liu Feiren's training, which sounded like reporting to the leader. The reason is very simple, Coach Jiang is a member of the national team's coaching team, and giving him a detailed description of Liu Feiren's recent situation is like indirectly reporting to Coach Feng.
Director Sun has a good grasp of things at work, and it can be seen that Lu Wei is also very sincere in the last sentence.
"The biggest gap between Xiao Lu and Varina is still in terms of rhythm control, this American player should now be in the prime of his career, his technical movements are impeccable, and his back-up ability is also first-class, and we Xiao Lu still need to improve to catch up with this opponent."
Wang Qiao also objectively pointed out the gap between Lu Wei and the world champion, but his words revealed his expectations for Lu Wei, and he inadvertently compared Lu Wei with the world champion.
"There are highs and lows in the form of athletes in a year, and although the difference in performance is not huge, it is enough to determine the final champion. Our goal is to allow athletes to play their best in the competition, and in recent years, our coaching staff has also had a certain grasp of Xiao Liu's state ups and downs. ”
When the domestic counterparts exchange training experience, we are not hiding, the current progress of Chinese track and field is very slow, everyone hopes to send their athletes to a higher platform through their own efforts, exchange and learn from each other, and learn from each other's strengths is a good way to progress.
