Chapter 10 Track and Field Athlete Zhang Shu

Pep Guardiola's ravages with Zhang Shu continued for several minutes, and he did not let poor Zhang Shu go until the door of the dressing room was pushed open. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a lot of new teammates for the new season. We'll be competing together in the future, so let's get to know each other first. ā€

Baggio led a group of people into the locker room, and for Zhang Shu, such a scene was still something new. He joined the first-team squad in the middle of the season and was introduced by Baggio to get acquainted with his team-mates very quickly. But now that so many people have come at once, Baggio can't introduce them one by one, so they can only let them introduce themselves to their teammates, and whether they can make their teammates remember it depends on their own skills.

Some people are able to make friends in the locker room when they first meet, while others remain as transparent as a person until they leave the team.

The first to stand up is Di Biagio, a former Italian superstar who will be at least as tall as Pep Guardiola in the dressing room in the future. So he was the first to stand up in a group of newcomers.

"Hello everyone, I'm Dibiagio, you can call me Gigi. I'm not here to retire, you did a great job last season! I want to play with you all in the new season and continue to surprise those people! ā€

Di Biagio's speech was very domineering, and he didn't laugh after speaking, but looked around solemnly. He looks a little too serious, and judging by the previous news, he is not a good-natured person, and he has choked team-mate Toldo by the neck in a Champions Cup match before. Many young players are secretly reminding themselves in their hearts not to make jokes about this veteran.

Then came the other players, Mauri, Caracciolo, Guana, Salgado, Castellazzi and others introduced themselves one by one. Compared to Di Biagio, their self-introduction is much more low-key and simple, after all, they do not have the huge fame and wealth experience of Di Biagio.

Their self-introductions weren't too impressive, with most congratulating Brescia on their excellent results last season and expressing their joy at joining the team.

Until it was the turn of the last person.

"Hello everyone, I...

"Wait!" Zhang Shu jumped out from behind the crowd and interrupted Viviano's newly opened mouth, "Vivi, I'll introduce you!" ā€

He turned and pulled Viviano to face his teammates. "This is my team-mate at the Under-17s, Viviano. You can call him Emiliano, Vivi, soy milk. The position is the goalkeeper, the technique is not bad, and the person is also handsome, if any of you bully him... ā€

At this, he paused.

"Please don't give me face, just bully, thank you for helping me get revenge."

"Hey! What the hell is the last sentence! Viviano opened his mouth to protest, he began to listen to Zhang Shu and felt good, Zhang Shu and the first team players have a good relationship, and he helped him to introduce himself, which helped him integrate into the dressing room of the first team, but this last sentence is a human officer!?

The rest of Brescia's players burst out laughing, and they certainly didn't really think that Zhang Shu was trying to get them to help bully Viviano. Everyone can see that Zhang Shu and Viviano have a good relationship, and it was just a little joke between friends just now.

However, it is precisely because of Zhang Shu's jokes that in addition to Di Biagio, Viviano has also left a deeper impression on them than other new players.

The players changed in the dressing room and soon arrived at the training ground.

The training for the new season starts with a physical examination, the team's pre-season training is not static, the physical condition of the players determines the intensity of pre-season training, so before officially starting training, Mazzoni needs to have a comprehensive understanding of everyone's physical condition.

After a holiday of swords and guns into storage, Ma Fang Nanshan, many players' physical condition has declined a lot, when the players are not in good health, rashly starting a large amount of training will increase the risk of injury to players. For some players who have insisted on daily exercise during the holidays, physical recovery training does not need to take up most of their weight, and the coaching staff must take into account the physical condition of each player when formulating a training plan.

At the same time, the coaches of the new players also need to have an intuitive understanding of their physical fitness. Just like the tests he conducted during the trial, this data can help the coaching staff to better play to the strengths of the players in the tactical design of the new season.

For example, Caracciolo, who returned to the team from loan, his test data intuitively showed the difference between him and Toney. Although his height is one centimeter taller than Tony, he lags behind Tony in weight, bench press, squat, waist-to-hip ratio and other data, and at the same time, he is better than Tony in 25 meters of direction running, switchback running, and running around the pole.

This shows that although Caracciolo is also a high school striker, his characteristics are very different from traditional center strikers like Toni, so the team's tactics will also change when Caracciolo comes on the field. If you insist on crosses from both wings and let Caracciolo and the opposing defenders fight for positions, it is undoubtedly a long attack on the enemy with a short time.

In addition to getting to know the new players, the stats of the players who were in Brescia last year must also be updated, especially for players like Zhang Shu whose physical attributes have changed dramatically in the space of a year. Brescia's players are dominated by young players with veterans, and there are not many players in the Mesozoic Era who are in their playing years, so the physical condition of most players has changed significantly, such as veterans such as Baggio and Pep Guardiola, their physical fitness has further declined. Among the rising players, Zhang Shu is undoubtedly the most surprising one for the club.

After nearly a year of scientific training and dietary supplements, Zhang Shu's physical fitness is almost two people compared to when he first came.

In a short period of time, his height increased by 5 cm to 177 cm, and his weight increased by 12 kg. It's not enough to be a small tank like Wayne Rooney, but it's at least the average of a professional player. And the improvement of his athleticism shocked the team doctor.

"Zhang! Are you developing a second time? It's not scientific! The team doctor, Alchid, shouted at Zhang Shu with the test report in his hand.

"Uh... It was just to do special training with Coach Merricini during the holidays, is it necessary to be so exaggerated? Zhang Shu touched his head inexplicably.

Alcide immediately called Mericini, "Merry, we are old acquaintances, you must answer me honestly, you didn't give Zhang anything to eat, did you?" He asked in a low voice with a serious expression.

Mericini snatched the report from Alcide's hand with some anger, and he was a little angry at his colleagues' questioning of his work ethic, but after glancing at the report, his expression became strange.

"No, absolutely not! How could I possibly give Zhang any medicine! He explained urgently, "What's more, we only did confrontation training during the holidays, which will only have an effect on Zhang's strength and endurance at most, how can it affect his other athletic abilities." ā€

"Really? Amphetamine? Steroid? Hormone? What about supplements that are not banned? Still uneasy, Alcide lowered his voice and cautiously prompted.

"No, no, no, no!" Mericini gritted his teeth and said, "When Zhang was with me, except for the club's sports drinks, he ate at home, and the recipe was the one we discussed!" ā€

Alcid was even more confused, "Why did that Zhang's speed increase so much!" He has been training in football instead of track and field for more than half a year! Do you think it's normal for a 17-year-old footballer to run 11.5 seconds in the 100 meters? What's even more incredible is that his 25-meter time is only 3.2 seconds! ā€

"What's wrong with 3.2 seconds?" Zhang Shu asked on the side, he turned on all his acceleration skills during the test just now, and in the first two seconds of the start, the speed of his body was accelerated by 15%, and after two seconds, he also maintained 10% acceleration, which made him complete the acceleration action from stationary to the highest speed faster than normal people. It's just that now it looks like he's pushed a little too hard.

"What's wrong??? You're asking us what's wrong??? Alcid yelled at him. Do you know what that means? This means that your first 25 meters of speed is at the level of being able to compete in the Olympics! ā€

In the 100-meter race at the Olympic Games, athletes are almost in a state of acceleration in the first 50 meters, so running in the first 25 meters in 3.2 seconds is almost at the level of a world-class sprinter.

"Oops, oops, I didn't think I was so good... Zhang Shu touched his head and laughed embarrassedly, "So I can actually develop towards track and field?" ā€

Alchide nodded, "Zhang, even if your back-up speed is a little slow, but with your current 100-meter result, you are fully capable of becoming a track and field athlete, after all, you have not received professional track and field training and your 100-meter score has reached 11.5 seconds... ā€

"I'm not interested in competing in athletics," Zhang Shu shook his head with a smile, "Running is not fun compared to playing football." ā€

In fact, Zhang Shu is very clear that he just has more advantages than others at the start, first of all, his starting speed is much faster than others, the time from hearing the command to the start of the average sprinter is about 0.3 seconds, and Zhang Shu with the help of the system, his consciousness has almost no reaction time in the eyes of others. If he actually competed in the 100 meters, he would definitely be sent off for starting with a reaction time of less than 0.1 seconds.

Of course, he can also choose to wait about 0.2 seconds before starting, so his 100-meter time will be 11.7 seconds, barely meeting the standard of a national second-class athlete.

"Anyway, it's a good thing that Zhang's speed has gotten faster, isn't it?" Merricini said. He was sure that he had never given Zhang Shu any messy drugs, so he was at ease with Zhang Shu's sprinting performance, which was not a football player.

However, Alcide was still a little uneasy, and he repeatedly asked Zhang Shu about the food and drinks that Zhang Shu usually consumed, so as to make sure that Zhang Shu would not ingest some illegal drugs without knowing it. It wasn't until he made sure that Zhang Shu had indeed eaten indiscriminately that he let him go.

"No, last year, Zhang's 100-meter speed was only 13 seconds." Until Zhang Shu left, he was still shaking his head and wondering.

Compared to Alcide, who is proficient in sports medicine, Mazzoni's attitude towards Zhang's physical changes is much simpler, and he looks through the team doctor's report and smiles from ear to ear.

Because Zhang Shu has been under his nose for the past six months, he looks at it every day, and he doesn't feel that Zhang Shu's body has changed much. But comparing the physical test report when Zhang Shu came to the trial last year with this year's one, I found that Zhang Shu was almost about to become another player.

Whether it is strength or speed, endurance or agility, Zhang Shu has improved a lot on the basis of last year.

In the past year, Zhang Shu has undergone three special trainings, and almost every day he eats the food that the club has prepared for him except for one Chinese meal. These little by little efforts have finally borne fruit. Zhang Shu went from being at the bottom of the youth team in terms of physical fitness when he first arrived, to now being average in the first team, and even becoming a fast horse on the side when everyone didn't notice it.

This result made Mazzoni overjoyed.

In the tactics he and Pep Guardiola envisioned before, Zhang Shu was one of the most important attacking cores of the team. In this tactic, the physical requirements for him are very high, and at the same time, for the stability of the team for a season, Zhang Shu needs to maintain an extremely high attendance rate, which is a huge challenge for him.

Mazzoni is more confident in Brescia's new tactics for next season.

The coverage on the first day was basically a physical test, and the formal training began on the second day.

Because Brescia will participate in the first Champions League qualifying match on August 15, Brescia attaches great importance to this game. Since Serie A won 4 Champions League places, there has never been a case of a Serie A team being eliminated in the Champions League qualifiers, they don't want to fight desperately to get the third place in the league, but they overturned in the gutter in the qualifying round and were blocked out of the Champions League, becoming the laughing stock of the entire Serie A.

What's more, the economic benefits of participating in the Champions League are also factors that cannot be ignored, as long as they can enter the Champions League, the team can also earn at least 15 million euros, which is almost equivalent to their transfer funds for a whole year for Brescia.

Such an important game certainly cannot be treated as a pre-season warm-up match like the previous Toto Cup, and in order to prepare for this game, Brescia has a holiday of half a month shorter than other teams this year. Thankfully, there weren't any big games this summer and the players got plenty of rest. They have no problem with that, and for these unknown young players, the Champions League is the best stage for them to make a name for themselves, and they will never miss this opportunity.

In the beginning, the team's training was mainly focused on recovering their physical fitness, and after a month's vacation, many players' physical fitness has declined to varying degrees. The coaching staff needs to help the players get back into form and rhythm in training, and everyone except Zhang Shu, who has undergone special training, must go through recovery training before starting formal physical training. This is also to prevent players from getting injured, if they come to a lot of training, with Brescia's medical level, I believe that many players will be on the injury list before the start of the season.

Therefore, while the other team members were still relaxing and recovering, only Zhang Shu maintained a high-intensity training volume.

"It's not fair!" Zhang Shu cried to Mericini, "Why should people who practice on vacation suffer more than those who play for a month!" (To be continued.) )
