If the goal is to fully participate in the 400m event at the World Athletics Championships, that means that at least three of them must run under 45.30 seconds.
And from a high probability, if this can really be achieved, then the PB of each of the athletes who run into this result will not all remain at the limit of 45.30 seconds, which is the qualifying line for the World Championships.
But...if it advances another 0.05 seconds, it will be the national record for men's 400-meter sprint that has been untouched in the country for more than ten years!
Even a guy as reckless as Qiu Wen wouldn't dare to say that he could break the national record within the next year!
Thinking of this, Qiu Wen cast a very complicated look at Zhang Ziyi - it seems that he can only rely on Brother Zhang?
Zhang Ziyi was just shocked. He originally felt a little pressured by the challenge of the threshold of the 400-meter event in this World Championships. But in a flash, he realized that he was not the only one under pressure. This time, Su Bai was going to fight hard with the entire 400-meter team.
Before he could think about it any more, he noticed that Qiu Wen next to him was looking at him with an expression that said "you've worked hard", which made him feel so amused that he didn't know what was going on in this silly boy's mind.
Next to the group of shocked people, Li Junhao's face was also green. When Su Bai mentioned the goal of fully staffing the battle, a string of comments like "Su Bai is crazy" flashed through Li Junhao's mind.
Su Bai looked at everyone present very calmly and confidently.
"I know this is a very difficult goal to achieve, but not long ago, winning individual medals and relay medals in the 400m event at the Asian Games was a near-impossible task for us."
"But we did it. With our own efforts, everyone present achieved results that would have been difficult to achieve in the past in just one month of training before the Asian Games."
"We still have 10 months to go. I hope you will believe in your potential and strength, and also believe in the training plan I have made for you."
As he spoke, Su Bai also turned his gaze to the female team members who were also listening to his presentation attentively.
"As for the women's team," Su Bai suddenly said, "The qualifying standard for the women's 400-meter race in this World Championships is 51.80 seconds. My personal expectation for the women's team is that at least one member of the team can achieve the qualifying standard for the World Championships."
The eyes of the women's team members such as Chen Yada, Lin Huan, Lin Yao, etc., almost immediately lit up after hearing what Su Bai said.
Su Bai looked in their direction and said seriously: "Although you have worked very hard in the previous training, once you have determined this goal, the subsequent training will be even more difficult."
"Do you have the confidence to accomplish the training plan I have arranged for you?"
When Su Bai asked this question, the girls on the women's team almost shouted in unison: "Yes!!!"
Just from the volume and momentum of their answers, it can be seen that these female players are determined - before this year, it was also a sport that was neglected by everyone, and there was no hope of them reaching the top level in Asia. Since the men's team has made great progress after receiving guidance from the coach, then their women's team can do the same!
What's more, this is not just imaginary.
In the previous National Championships, both Chen Yada and Lin Huan had improved their PB from over 53 seconds to under 53 seconds. Lin Yao, whose original PB was 53.75, also lowered her PB to 53.25 in the National Championships.
The men's team is improving, and their women's team is definitely not bad either!
In fact, because the women's team is more competitive and their foundation is very solid, after receiving adjustments to the training plan that is more suitable for them, the speed at which their performance improves is even more exaggerated than that of the men's team members before.
This improvement in performance also helped them rebuild their confidence.
Today, Su Bai gave the men's team the task of competing with a full complement of players, but he did not have any requirements for the women's team. The girls on the women's team were already holding back their anger, and after Su Bai stated his requirements for the women's team, why would they care that Su Bai only said that one person would get a place to participate?
In short - put it together first!
While the girls on the women's team were shouting their hearts out, their momentum also made the men's team members next to them tremble in fear.
Qiu Wen turned his head with a dull look on his face and looked at the girls on the female team next to him. The first thought in his mind was: Damn, they are so competitive. The second thought was - Oh no, they are finished!
Sure enough, after Su Bai showed a satisfied smile in the direction of the women's team, he turned his gaze back to the direction of the men's team. He did not say anything, but just looked at the men's team quietly, which made everyone feel creepy.
There is no doubt that the smile on Su Bai's face means: ^^Look, the girls on the women's team are so brave. As the men on the men's team, do you have any questions about the full-capacity competition goal I just set?
What can the men's team led by Zhang Ziyi say now?
Of course -
"Coach, we will also work hard!"
Li Junhao looked at his teammates with a wooden face as they were tricked by Su Bai, the king of tricks. Everyone looked like they were ready to fight, and they were just about to shout "charge".
Qiu Wen and Li Junhao's train of thought were strangely connected to the same thread - this guy Su Bai is really a master of tricks! !
In short, regardless of whether there is a routine or not, the men's and women's teams in joint training and the men's and women's teams in the 400m event have begun to train hard towards the qualifying line for the 400m event in next year's World Athletics Championships.
On the first day of training, Su Bai and the logistics staff distributed three pairs of shoes to all the athletes one by one - not the kind of running shoes that are so light that you can't feel the weight on your feet and can help the athletes improve their performance and strength, but ordinary sports shoes.
Ordinary sports shoes are relatively heavy. Although this weight does not have much impact on ordinary people, for athletes, a pair of shoes that may weigh half a pound can have a greater impact on the performance of sprinters.
This is also the training method that Su Bai has used in previous training. The reason for doing this is simply to let the players try their best to break through themselves while wearing ordinary sports shoes, and then derive it to achieve further improvement in performance while wearing running shoes.
Su Bai's training habits were not seen in previous national teams, which inspired Pei Jinan. He studied some of Su Bai's training techniques and applied them to other sprinters in the track and field team, and indeed achieved good training results.
As for Su Bai's athletes, the mentality of everyone on the men's team is now - they have fallen into Su Bai's clutches, so the only way out is to fight, right? As for what shoes to wear for training, just wear whatever the coach says.
Of course, there are also people like Zhang Ziyi who are studious and curious.
"Coach Xiaobai." Zhang Ziyi looked at the hook shoes that were distributed to the men's and women's teams. Each team got three pairs of the same shoes. He looked at the shoes for a long time and turned to Su Bai and asked, "Coach, is there anything special about the shoes you picked for us? Did you choose the weight of the shoes specifically to make them suitable for our training?"
As a result, Zhang Ziyi, who originally thought he could get a high-end answer, saw Su Bai stunned for a moment, and then Su Bai smiled and replied: "Well, congratulations, our 400-meter project has achieved very good results this year, so we have obtained special sponsorship from the Hook brand for the entire 400-meter project. You may need to shoot a commercial together in a while."
…
…………
………………
?
Zhang Ziyi never expected that the answer waiting for him in the end would be this.
He opened his mouth, looked at Su Bai silently, then looked down at the shoes in his hand. The expression on his face could be described as extremely difficult to describe.
Beside the two of them, Li Junhao, who had watched the entire communication and interaction between the two, put away the pairs of shoes in his hand with an expressionless face, and then once again complained viciously in his heart about Su Bai, the king of routine.
Routines are routines, but if before the training started, the players were still in the mood to complain about Su Bai, the king of routines, then after the training actually started, it can be said that these players no longer even had the energy to complain.
It’s not that Su Bai arranged super-high-intensity and large-volume training for all the players, but the training arranged by Su Bai will pursue extremely high efficiency in a short period of time. It seems that the training volume is smaller than before, but in fact the efficiency and even the training intensity are higher than before, and it is also much more tiring than before.
For example, in Su Bai's training arrangement, there is a training like this - Su Bai initially required the athletes to conduct 200-meter related training. This training has a limited time. In the early stages, the athletes were only required to maintain 30 seconds to complete a set of 200-meter running, a total of 10 sets, and 30 seconds x 4 rest time were available between each set.
As the training progresses, this 200 training of 30 seconds per set will gradually become 29 seconds per set, and then the number of sets and rest time will be reduced, and then it will go down to 28 seconds per set, 27 seconds per set...
This training is not only to train the athletes' perception and control of speed, but also to train the athletes' special speed abilities.
At the beginning, every contestant felt it was very easy. After all, running 200 meters in 30 seconds was not a difficult task for these contestants. The only thing they needed to pay attention to was to control their running speed and not let their speed get out of control.
As Su Bai gradually increased their speed requirements, even though the number of sets they needed to run decreased, in fact, the difficulty for them was greatly increased.
So far, even Qiu Wen, a former sprinter who competes in both 100m and 200m events, can only run one set of 25 seconds, rest for 25 seconds x 4, and then do 5 sets in a row.
Judging from Qiu Wen's performance, this is already the top standard of the current national team.
You should know that Qiu Wen's original personal best for 200 meters was 21.37 seconds. Normally, he could easily run 200 meters within 22 seconds.
This task is already so difficult for Qiu Wen, and it is even more difficult for other contestants. In addition to Qiu Wen, the other two with the fastest progress are Zhang Ziyi and Li Junhao.
Zhang Ziyi originally had a good grasp of his own speed and rhythm control, but his speed-specific ability was not strong, so his training improvement in this area was not as fast as Qiu Wen's.
So far, Zhang Ziyi has already reached the stage of performing one set of exercises every 26 seconds, and will soon stabilize and enter the stage of performing one set of exercises every 25 seconds.
Li Junhao is making similar progress to Zhang Ziyi, and his results are also on the verge of improving to 25 seconds per set and 26 seconds per set.
Apart from Qiu Wen, Zhang Ziyi and Li Junhao, the fourth ranked player among everyone was not Lin Chuan or Guo Dun, but Hu Li, who was called up to the national team by Su Bai during this training camp.
This result is quite unexpected.
Hu Li has basically reached the stage where he can run steadily at 27 seconds and is about to enter 26 seconds per set. Unfortunately, his speed endurance is insufficient. After running several sets in a row, he often loses control of his speed due to his own speed endurance and physical fitness problems, and cannot maintain his results to the end.
However, since joining the national team's winter training, Zhang Wei and Hu Li have been working harder than many people imagined. During training, they almost only follow Su Baima's lead.
As long as Su Bai put forward requirements and training plans, they both spared no effort to complete them.
Seeing how they were working wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly to meet Su Bai's request, the other players in the men's team couldn't help but become more serious.
In addition, Su Bai's previous training plan of training the men's and women's teams together also obviously played a promoting role for the men's team members.
It can be said that every day, on the 400-meter training ground, you can see the men's and women's teams on both sides of the training ground competing fiercely.
There is no need to talk about the girls on the women's team. The members of the women's team headed by Chen Yada, seem to have no idea what hardship and fatigue are. Su Bai clearly said, 'As long as one member of the women's team can break through and qualify for the World Championships,' but these girls on the women's team fought so hard, as if they really only had one qualification for the World Championships, and now all of them were fighting for the qualification for this World Championships.
The training of the women's team is indeed different from that of the men's team, but in terms of special training in speed perception and speed ability, both the men's and women's teams use the same training program mentioned above.
So, at almost the same time every day, you can see the men's and women's team players taking turns sprinting and resting next to the timer.
Are there any players on the men's team who have reached 28 seconds per group?
Of course the women’s team can’t lose!
What?
Has anyone on the women's team already reached 27 seconds per group?
Damn, if the men’s team doesn’t try harder, they’ll be caught up by the girls!
As the training progressed, every member of the men's team felt Su Bai's "sinister and cunning" nature, and the most outrageous thing about Su Bai was that he even set a quota for dinner.
At this stage, he has already developed training plans for each team member, and then gave these training plans to the coaches of the men's and women's teams respectively. So apart from occasionally adjusting the details of the different training plans according to the players' conditions, Su Bai has a lot more free time.
So, he went back to his old job and prepared meals for the team members - of course, there was a limited amount of meals, and only the top five team members in terms of training efficiency and quality the day before could receive this loving honor.
What's even more outrageous is that Su Bai also reported to the national team and arranged a special dining area for the 400-meter project team. Then, there was no limit on the number of men's and women's teams that could receive the honor of his loving catering.
That is to say, if one day, five girls on the women's team train faster and more efficiently than those on the men's team, then the next day in the 'special dining area for the 400-meter sprint' in the cafeteria, there will be a group of defeated athletes sitting there, watching five girls at another table happily eating the loving energy meal that Su Bai specially prepared for them.
…
This is really, really great^^
Ever since Su Bai made this move, the news quickly spread throughout the entire national track and field team. As a result, every morning, noon and night, someone would go around to this 'special dining area for the 400-meter sprint' to see who the five people sitting in the 'VIP seats' were, and then see who were sitting in the other 'ordinary cafeteria area'.
As the saying goes, shame play and public execution, this is exactly what this situation is about.
Under this kind of competition system, can the men's team give way to the women's team?
In other words, does the women's team need the men's team to give in? It is obvious that from the start of winter training to now, it is the female team members who have gained absolute advantage!
During this period of time, it can be said that all of Zhang Ziyi and his friends have come to visit their plight. They don't even need to say hello to Zhang Ziyi and his friends. They just need to happily glance at the general area when passing by, then show a 'toothless' smile and nod meaningfully...
That's true, no one can bear this injustice.
"Xiao Bai is really...too cruel!"
Lying on the seat in the ordinary area, Qiu Wen was about to cry - the Xiaobai of the past was not like this. The Xiaobai of the past was the cute Xiaobai who could gently prepare delicious midnight snacks for the three of them! Who is this devil now? Hurry up and give back his once lovely Xiaobai!
Li Junhao looked indifferent: "You just realized how cruel he is now? Shouldn't you have known this a long time ago?"
Qiu Wen looked at Li Junhao blankly: "Ah? Why? Xiaobai used to be so gentle and cute! qaq"
“…”
Li Junhao glanced coldly at Zhang Ziyi and Chen Yadan in the VIP seats, and then looked at Qiu Wen with a look of "looking at idiots": "...stupid."
Not only the athletes, but even the coaches have long known about this "spectacle" of the 400-meter event. Even if many coaches do not eat in the cafeteria, they will take a detour to watch and have fun occasionally, and they have taken the male and female competition model of the 400-meter event seriously.
As coaches also came to visit, many athletes in other events suddenly felt that their lives were hanging by a thread, and it seemed that they would fall to the same level as the 400-meter athletes at any time.
Originally, Zhang Ziyi and his team felt that such competition within the team and subsequent public punishment was shameful enough. Who would have thought that, because of their outstanding performance in this year's outdoor season, they attracted many reporters who wanted to interview them?
The national track and field team will not miss any opportunity to promote the team and its players. It is not the first time that reporters have entered the national team's training base for interviews. As long as they do not reveal some special training details and data, these interviews are not prohibited.
So, when some of the 400m team members thought they had developed a "steel-like" iron mask, they welcomed the media interview team brought by the sprint team's head coach Pei Jinan.
"Eh? The 400-meter athletes are dining here, right? Why is it written here that there is a special dining area for the 400-meter sprint? Oh, there are also ordinary areas and VIP seats?"
Reporters were very curious about this "special treatment" and took out their cameras and video cameras to take photos and videos.
Because the efficiency and quality of the previous day's training were once again defeated by the women's team, the men's 400-meter team members were eating at this moment, and when they saw the reporters who came to take pictures and their coach Su Bai standing next to the reporters, they all froze in place.
Damn, they are finished!
Sure enough, after Su Bai looked at them with a smile, he also looked at the reporters with a smile and introduced the special competition rules of the 400-meter event to the reporters.
After listening to Su Bai's introduction, the reporters all showed amusement on their faces, and then everyone became more active in taking photos of the ordinary seats and VIP seats.
At this moment, although the members of the male team, who were sitting in the ordinary seats with an absolute numerical advantage, were smiling at the reporters, they were already crying in their hearts - it was over, their image and their reputation were about to be ruined.
But even so, when reporters asked them, 'Do you think this way of competition is effective? ', they had to smile with tears in their eyes and say: It is still very effective. Everyone's enthusiasm, seriousness and commitment in training have greatly improved compared to the past. A high-quality competition cycle mechanism has also been perfectly formed between the men's and women's teams. We all think this competition plan is 'particularly good' (emphasis added).
Although reporters also feel that this competition mechanism is very "cruel", from the comparison of some training efficiency data provided by Su Bai, it can be seen that this competition mechanism does have a promoting effect on the entire 400-meter event, and the effect of the promotion is quite good.
With the arrival of journalists and the announcement of the competition mechanism for the 400m event group, gathering places for track and field fans such as Track and Field Kingdom and Weibo Super Topic have attracted countless "haha parties" because of this competition mechanism.
These guys, who are pronounced as track and field fans but are actually "hahaha" at heart, almost all burst into laughter after seeing this cruel competition plan. They are not satisfied with just seeing the competition results interviewed by reporters, and have started to check in on the official Weibo of the National Track and Field Team on a daily basis, kneeling down to beg for the complete list of competition winners of the 400-meter sprint team.
After seeing the requests of these haha parties, the members of the 400-meter men's team headed by Zhang Ziyi felt a huge "danger" quickly rising above their heads.
The men's 400m team's dignity is at stake_(:3)∠)_.
