Chapter 115
Not many people in the team knew about the 400-meter ability test arranged by the national team for Su Yu. The only coaches who knew about it were Pei Dingshan, Zheng Sheng, Liu Qinlong, Sun Gaoshu, Pei Yongsheng and a few others. Even fewer athletes knew about it.
It's not that there is any special confidentiality principle, but no one can say for sure whether Su Yu can achieve good results in the 400m event, so everyone is cautious and does not discuss the matter too loudly.
The only contestants who knew that Su Yu was taking the test were a few of Su Yu's friends in his group and Zhan Youming. After all, Zheng Sheng had discussed with Zhan Youming the possibility of Su Yu taking part in the 400-meter event before, so the team did not hide from Zhan Youming the fact that they were planning to test Su Yu's ability in the 400-meter event.
However, Zhan Youming is currently in an overseas training base participating in a competition and training, so even if he knew about this, it is impossible for him to come back to observe Su Yu's test. Therefore, that afternoon, the only people waiting to test Su Yu were a few insiders in the coaching staff.
In preparation for Su Yu's 400-meter test in the afternoon, Liu Qinlong specially arranged a separate indoor training ground and installed an electronic segmented speed meter in advance - this was to see how Su Yu's speed changes in different segments during the 400-meter test, and also to see if Su Yu would have serious deformation of technical movements and a sharp drop in speed in the middle and late stages of the 400-meter test due to muscle stiffness caused by the rapid loss of physical energy and the accumulation of lactic acid.
In fact, regarding the latter point, Liu Qinlong is quite confident in Su Yu.
After all, when he first spotted Su Yu during the national team's winter training, he observed his condition when running 400 meters in daily training. Unlike many athletes who had stiff bodies in the second half of the race, Su Yu still showed good body elasticity feedback in the second half of the 400-meter run.
Including since this season, Liu Qinlong has always been paying attention to each competition that Su Yu participated in. The speed endurance, cornering ability and his ability to grasp speed rhythm that he showed in the 200-meter event are all in Liu Qinlong - this is definitely a very good 400-meter seedling!
But Liu Qinlong knew in his heart that given Su Yu's previous physical condition, the team would not be able to put any more pressure on him. So even though he envied Su Yu, this good seedling, he could only keep it to himself.
But today!
Finally today!
At the side, Su Yu and Pei Dingshan had not arrived yet. In the huge training ground, there were only Liu Qinlong, Zheng Sheng, Sun Gaoshu and Pei Yongsheng.
Sun Gaoshu looked at Liu Qinlong who couldn't even stand still and couldn't help laughing at him: "Okay, Lao Liu, look at how worthless you are now."
Liu Qinlong didn't care about Sun Gaoshu's ridicule: "Hey, you have no shortage of people in the 100m event. With Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming, you won't have to worry about this Olympic cycle. The reserve team members behind you are also good, such as Ye Minghao, Zhou Yuang and Su Yu. With them here, you don't have to worry about gaps. You can be in charge until ten years later. There will be no problem spanning four Olympic cycles. But we are worried about the 400m!"
Even though among Su Yu, Zhou Yuang and Ye Minghao only Ye Minghao is good at 100 meters, Su Yu's current results are already there. In addition, Zhou Yuang also has great potential. Neither of them can be considered as only 200 meters runners.
Seeing Liu Qinlong's expression, Sun Gaoshu stopped teasing him.
He was also clear about the situation at 400 meters. Liu Qinlong had been envious of their situation at 100 meters. If he dared to provoke him again, Liu Qinlong might become furious.
Just as they were chatting, someone walked in from outside the training ground - it was Su Yu, who was there to prepare for the 400-meter test, and his coach Pei Dingshan.
"Ah, Xiaoyu, you're here?"
Seeing Su Yu coming, Liu Qinlong no longer paid attention to Sun Gaoshu and the others, and turned his attention to Su Yu.
"Coach Liu."
Su Yu greeted Liu Qinlong, and then greeted Sun Gaoshu and the others one by one.
Everyone saw each other often on weekdays, so there was nothing too particular about it. So after saying hello to several coaches, Su Yu went to the training ground not far away, put down his training bag, and began his warm-up preparations before the test.
Of course, the coaches around would not disturb Su Yu at this moment, so they just had a brief chat with Pei Dingshan on the side. The main topic was what aspects of Su Yu Pei Dingshan was going to improve during this winter training cycle.
After all, for athletes, after the start of the outdoor season, although they maintain the rhythm of regular training during the season, regular training and winter training are different. Most of the problems observed by coaches and athletes themselves throughout the season have to be solved during winter training.
In addition, winter training also bears the important task of athletes' physical reserves.
In short, winter training is a very important part of training for both domestic and foreign athletes.
Pei Dingshan has not actually made all the plans for Su Yu's upcoming winter training.
He did not hide the fact that: "At present, the only thing we are preparing is the physical training plan. Anderson from the physical training team is sorting out Su Yu's physical training and improvement needs as a whole, but the specific physical training plan still needs to be adjusted according to Su Yu's final training program."
After hearing this, Zheng Sheng, Liu Qinlong and the others also understood - the specific training plan depends on the results of Su Yu's 400-meter test today. After all, this determines whether Su Yu needs to develop in the 400-meter direction in the future. They have to make sure that Su Yu's talent is real before they can discuss the next step.
Knowing that there was nothing to talk about for the time being, Zheng Sheng and the others stopped talking for the time being and turned their attention to Su Yu who was not far away.
In the following time, several coaches watched Su Yu warm up on the sidelines.
If this situation happened to an ordinary young contestant, he would have been too nervous, but Su Yu's overall condition seemed to be unaffected at all.
After he completed his warm-up step by step, he turned his head to look in the direction of the coaches, indicating that he could start the test.
As for the coaches, Liu Qinlong couldn't wait any longer, so when he saw Su Yu's signal, he went straight to the 400-meter curve starting area. Before that, he also checked whether the electronic timer, segment timer and other equipment on site were all turned on. After confirming that there was no problem, he signaled Su Yu to go to the starting line and get ready.
Although it is a test, all necessary processes will be followed.
After Su Yu personally checked his starting block and adjusted its angle, he stood behind the starting block and waited for Liu Qinlong's instructions.
At this moment, there are only five or six people in this huge indoor training ground, and there is only one athlete, Su Yu, on the track.
But even so, the coaches present felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness.
In the whole scene, perhaps the most relaxed person was Su Yu himself.
Next, after Liu Qinlong confirmed that Su Yu was ready, he gave the command "Get ready". After Su Yu squatted on the starting block, the command "Ready" followed. Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of the command gun fired by Liu Qinlong himself - "bang"!
The starting gun sounds and the test begins!
When Liu Qinlong fired the starting gun himself, he became nervous first, but before he could let this nervousness spread, he turned his attention to Su Yu on the runway.
It can be seen that even though it was just a test, Su Yu's reaction speed at the start was still very quick. After a quick start, although his starting burst was not strong and powerful, his acceleration and control performance in the corners were very beautiful.
This was also the first time that Su Yu showed his abilities to the audience in the Asian Games finals. From the World Youth Championship finals to the Asian Games finals, he gradually became more proficient in adapting and applying his abilities.
Although Su Yu's speed ability in the early stage is still not as amazing as his ability in the later stage, it can be said that it has been greatly improved compared with the past.
Sun Gaoshu, Pei Yongsheng, Zheng Sheng and others on the track nodded one after another after seeing Su Yu's acceleration and cornering technical performance, obviously recognizing Su Yu's progress in his future.
But today's test is a 400-meter test, and the performance of this kind of ability in the early stages is not the focus. For Zheng Sheng and others, whether Su Yu can maintain sufficient physical fitness and speed in the second, third, or even fourth 100-meter stages is the real focus that deserves attention.
"Here we go, the second hundred meters."
The starting curve section has ended. For the 400-meter runners, the next 100-meter stage, which is the first straight section after the curve, is the fastest stage for them in the entire 400-meter race.
Because the previous 100-meter stage has helped them complete the process from starting burst to acceleration, they do not need to accelerate again in this 100-meter stage after the curve. All they can do is run as freely as they can.
After the 100-meter stage, the second bend of the 400-meter race will be a very obvious deceleration point for most athletes. At this stage, due to the physical consumption in the previous race, the athletes are likely to slow down significantly due to physical problems. Of course, in addition to physical problems, there is another problem that the athletes have also entered the third bend at this stage.
In this case, if the athlete continues to force a sprint in the third bend, not only will his already limited physical strength be further squeezed dry, but it will also directly affect his sprint speed in the last 100-meter straight section.
Therefore, for 400-meter runners, the third 100-meter stage will often slow down their sprint pace. By adjusting the rhythm of slowing down the pace, they can get a chance to catch their breath and accumulate physical strength for the sprint of the last 100-meter stage.
Only in this case can the athletes complete a faster sprint in the final stage.
It is precisely because of the complex changes that for male 400m runners, the ability to control their own rhythm becomes an important requirement for their own abilities.
But unfortunately, the vast majority of domestic 400-meter runners lack the ability to respond in this regard. Many runners don't care about rhythm control at all. They usually exhaust their energy in the first 300 meters, so that when it comes to the last straight sprint stage, they simply don't have enough energy for the final sprint.
In China, training for athletes' rhythm control ability in the 400 meters is done, but training is one thing and acceptance is another. In short, there are almost no athletes in China who can really control their own rhythm, or some athletes who can control their own rhythm have questionable speed capabilities.
For the 400 meters, no matter how well you control your own rhythm, it is still a sprint event that pursues speed, and the speed ability of the athletes is ultimately a major focus of selection.
In addition, there are few coaches in China who can teach 400 meters well. Because of these reasons, it is always very difficult to select 400 meters athletes in China, so that until now, there is still a shortage of talent.
As his thoughts changed, Su Yu on the track in front of him had already finished his first 100-meter straight section and had quickly connected to the second bend.
At this stage, all players may experience a slowdown.
For some players, the deceleration at this stage is a sudden drop like a cliff, but for some players it is a relatively slow process of self-control and adjustment.
So, which one would Su Yu be?
The coaches present, especially Liu Qinlong, were watching Su Yu's condition on the field with almost all expectations. When he saw Su Yu entering the second bend, his heart began to beat nervously.
Then……
Then Liu Qinlong's eyes widened. He could see that Su Yu did slow down at this stage, but the speed reduction was not obvious.
It seemed that everything in the whole process was under Su Yu's control. This was a very delicate situation. Su Yu's deceleration did not reach the extent Liu Qinlong expected, and he could clearly see that after entering the curve, Su Yu seemed to be adjusting his speed and rhythm during the curve stage.
After this period of adjustment, as the test entered the final straight section, Su Yu's speed began to increase again!
At the trackside, Zheng Sheng, Sun Gaoshu and others couldn't help but marvel after seeing Su Yu's performance.
This kid Su Yu...
Can he actually control his own rhythm in the 400 meters? And after adjusting his condition in the third 100-meter stage, he was able to accumulate the physical strength and power for the final sprint!
When everyone watched Su Yu enter the sprint state in the last 50 meters, this test seemed to have already reached its conclusion in advance.
When Su Yu successfully crossed the 400-meter finish line, Liu Qinlong at the starting line jumped up first: "46.88 seconds!"
“It’s 46.88 seconds!!!”
This result...!
After hearing Liu Qinlong's shout, the coaches at the scene's first reaction was to turn their heads and look at the electronic timer display screen with black background and red letters on the field, and then they saw the number 46.68 clearly displayed on the electronic display screen.
After seeing this result, both Zheng Sheng and Sun Gaoshu took a deep breath.
It's just a test!
It took 47 seconds to open? !
Even though they knew that Su Yu was very talented in the 400m event, after seeing the result, the coaches present couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.
Although the result of 46.88 seconds in 400 meters may seem insignificant, it depends on who you are competing with.
If you compare with the Japanese athletes who have already broken the U18 400m record to 45.71 seconds, then in Japan, there are at least 20 to 30 people who can achieve a result of 46.88 seconds in a season - of course, we are not talking about U18 athletes here.
If we switch to China...
Zheng Sheng and the others were too embarrassed to say it, but in today's domestic 400-meter environment, it is not uncommon for athletes to run 47 seconds and win the National Tianjing Grand Prix.
In the 2018 season that just ended, the number of domestic athletes who ran under 46.88 seconds could be counted on one hand.
Just think about it, under such circumstances, Su Yu, a young athlete who had just started the 400-meter adaptive test, directly achieved a score of 46.88 seconds in the test.
With this result, not only Liu Qinlong was going crazy, but even they were more or less going crazy.
In fact, the reason why Liu Qinlong shouted out loud was not just because of the time of 46.88 seconds. The reason why he shouted out loud, in addition to the excellent result, was also because 46.88 seconds had actually broken the current domestic men's 400m U18 record.
Just like Zheng Sheng and the others thought, Liu Qinlong was also surprised - this was just a test!
At the end of the track, Su Yu, who had just finished the test, obviously looked not so good. Pei Dingshan had walked to his side and began to ask about his physical condition and feelings. At the same time, he recorded Su Yu's current situation on the training board he carried with him for record keeping.
But although Su Yu's condition looks average, it is actually not particularly bad.
At least comparing Su Yu's previous post-match performance in different competitions, it can be seen that Su Yu is actually doing okay at the moment.
Just from this point of view, we can know that Su Yu really did not try his best in the just-concluded 400-meter test. He adjusted his overall rhythm and still had a little spare energy.
On the side, Zheng Sheng, who was relatively more familiar with Su Yu's situation, was confused after seeing Su Yu's performance, so he simply asked Su Yu -
"Xiao Yu, you didn't use your full strength in the final sprint just now?"
Su Yu thought about it and replied, "It counts, or it doesn't count?"
After seeing the doubts on Zheng Sheng's faces, Su Yu thought for a moment and said, "During the test just now, I adjusted my rhythm when turning and accumulated some physical strength, but the adjustment in the turning stage affected my final sprint rhythm, so I was unable to complete the sprint better."
Zheng Sheng: “…”
After hearing Su Yu's answer, Zheng Sheng and the others were almost speechless on the spot.
Su Xiaoyu, do you want to listen to whether what you are saying is human language? Because the rhythm adjustment when turning affected his final sprint rhythm, he was unable to complete the sprint better - so he just barely ran 46.88 seconds.
:)
Is that what you mean?
After listening to Su Yu's explanation, Liu Qinlong's hands began to tremble - but of course it was not a trembling of anger, but a trembling of excitement.
Su Yu frowned when he saw Zheng Sheng and the others' stunned expressions. He soon understood why they were stunned. So he sorted out his thoughts and explained, "Coach, I actually think that I shouldn't be compared with ordinary 400-meter rookies with zero basic knowledge."
"I am a professional athlete who has been training and competing in competitions for a year and a half. Even though I didn't focus on the 400m before, as a 100m and 200m athlete, I actually have a 400m sprint in my training. In my training, I can also complete the 400m training, and my 100m and 200m foundation also helped me understand the 400m event."
Zheng Sheng watched Su Yu explain a lot, the main idea of which was - don't think I'm a 400-meter genius, in fact, I just learned something from experience during training because I compete in both 100-meter and 200-meter events.
Zheng Sheng: “…”
Sun Gaoshu: “…”
Liu Qinlong: “…”
All the coaches present, except Pei Dingshan, were complaining fiercely in their hearts at this moment. The complaints basically focused on - can we draw inferences from one instance to another? Why don't you ask about the 100m and 200m events to see if Zhan Youming can apply the knowledge gained to run the 400m in less than 46 seconds? Or can Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming draw inferences from this and run the 200 meters in less than 20.60 seconds?
After all, you, Su Yu, have been training for a year and a half, and the others have been training for more than ten years. The effect of "learning by analogy" should be better than yours, right?
Of course, these were just complaints in Zheng Sheng and the others’ minds. After these thoughts silently turned over in their minds, they took a deep breath and shut their mouths.
Okay, the child is young and has a stubborn personality.
If he thinks he's just drawing inferences from one instance to another, then... so be it.
Anyway, the most important thing now is that Su Yu's talent for the 400 meters is real. In the test just now, Su Yu was able to slow down so smoothly in the third 100-meter stage - it was really incredible.
Of course, what is even more incredible is that although Su Yu seemed to have sprinted very hard in the final stage, it was actually affected by his adjustments in the third 100-meter stage, so it was not actually an optimal sprint performance!
Well...if you are in better shape in the final sprint, wouldn't you have a chance to get under 46.50 seconds directly? !
Whenever he thought of this possibility, Liu Qinlong felt his breathing stagnate and he was about to suffocate.
That's it!
Su Yu has this talent!
Liu Qinlong felt deep regret in his heart. Why should he give in during the winter training last season? ! Aren't you, Zheng Sheng, the one who should give in? Isn't your 200 meters the event you should give up? !
Even though Liu Qinlong knew in his heart that this was actually because Su Yu's physical condition at the time did not allow it, he could not stop himself from regretting it.
So this time, he immediately grabbed Pei Dingshan and said with great confidence: "Coach Pei, this winter training, we must add our 400-meter training program for Su Yu!!!"
Pei Dingshan: “…”
The look in Liu Qinlong's eyes when he looked at Su Yu at this moment was like a monster looking at Tang Monk's meat. He wished he could swallow it into his stomach right on the spot and hide it well - after all, if he didn't swallow it into his stomach, he felt that this piece of Tang Monk's meat would soon be taken away by the two monsters, Sun Gaoshu and Zheng Sheng.
On the side, Zheng Sheng and Sun Gaoshu looked at Liu Qinlong speechlessly.
Finally, it was Sun Gaoshu who spoke first: "Come on, Lao Liu, don't embarrass yourself in front of the kids. Aren't you just worried about someone snatching someone away in the 100-meter race? Don't worry about this. Coach Xiao Pei has actually discussed this with me recently. Su Yu's current 100-meter speed ability has actually reached a relatively bottleneck stage. In the future, he will focus more on improving his physical fitness such as strength and explosiveness, and will spend less time studying and adjusting individual 100-meter skills. Our 100-meter race will definitely not affect your training."
Before Sun Gaoshu could finish, Liu Qinlong rolled his eyes at him and said, "Who told you about training? What about the schedule for next year?"
As we all know, players need a complete and proper schedule to participate in the competition, so that they can adjust their status for the entire season according to the focus of the year-round schedule.
But when this matter happens to Su Yu, conflicts arise.
After all, there is only one Su Yu, but with Su Yu's current results in 100 meters and 200 meters, there are so many competitions he can participate in.
If he were to compete in all of the 100m, 200m and 400m events, it would not be suitable for Su Yu to adjust his physical fitness and competitive state. However, if he only chose to participate in 1-2 of them, then with Su Yu's current performance, he would be able to go abroad directly to participate in the IAAF Challenge Tournament in the 100m and 200m events. As for the 400m, he is not yet qualified.
Sun Gaoshu refused to give in when the issue came to this. He coughed dryly and said, "Old Liu, you have to know that next year is the year for the World Championships!"
When Liu Qinlong heard what Sun Gaoshu said, his face froze immediately.
He knew what Sun Gaoshu meant - next year's 2019 World Championships will have higher standards for the men's 100m, 200m and 400m events than in previous years.
Among them, the competition standard for men's 100 meters is 10.10 seconds.
In other words, only by running 10.10 within the valid window period of the qualifying results can you meet the requirements for participating in the World Championships.
As for the domestic athletes who have successfully broken 10.10 seconds so far?
Zheng Tianxi, Feng Chuming, Su Yu.
Just these three.
What’s even more amazing is that the World Championships is different from the Asian Games and the World Youth Championships. Each country can have three qualified athletes in each individual event - isn’t that a coincidence?
At present, only Zheng Tianxi, Feng Chuming and Su Yu have the opportunity to qualify for the World Championships. Can you, Liu Qinlong, stop Su Yu from participating in the 100-meter event to qualify for the World Championships?
Liu Qinlong: …
He can't do it.
The men's 200 meters is even more impressive. After all, in the men's 100 meters, there are Zheng Tianxi and Liu Qinlong in the front, and Su Yu can only be considered the third person.
But in the men's 200 meters, there was only one Zhan Youming ahead of Su Yu.
Apart from Zhan Youming, the second person is Su Yu.
At this point, if Su Yu is still far from the World Championships men's 200m qualifying result in the men's 200m event, then Liu Qinlong might still have something to say.
But the qualifying time for the men's 200m in the World Championships is 20.40 seconds - before that, Su Yu had already run a time of 20.48 seconds in the Asian Games, which is really just one step away from the qualifying time for the men's 200m in the World Championships.
Under such circumstances, could Liu Qinlong still stop Zheng Sheng from arranging the men's 200-meter individual competition for Su Yu?
But after finishing the 100 meters and 200 meters, what else can he do in the 400 meters?
No matter how beautiful Liu Qinlong's dream was, he didn't dare to imagine that Su Yu could run a qualifying score of 45.30 seconds after the end of the winter training and before the deadline of the qualifying window for next year's World Championships - you know, the current national record for the men's 400-meter sprint (without a U) is only 45.50 seconds.
In other words, even if Su Yu breaks the national record, he may not be able to qualify for the 400m World Championships.
Yes, the current situation of 400 meters in China is so worrying.
But at the same time, it is worrying that Liu Qinlong really cannot say that he will compete with Zheng Sheng and Sun Gaoshu for people.
So, for a moment, the coaches on the scene became deadlocked.
Finally, it was Liu Qinlong who gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care. Su Yu must include the 400-meter race in his winter training. As for whether Su Yu will participate in the 400-meter race next year and how he will participate, we'll talk about this later!"
Sun Gaoshu and the others looked at each other at this moment, and finally could only temporarily agree with Liu Qinlong's statement.
As coaches of the national team, they would of course like to see another talent emerge in the 400 meters, but even if it's just a talent, they still have to fight for Su Yu's qualification!
On the side, although Pei Yongsheng is the general manager of the short jump group, he has a large number of tasks under his charge and it is definitely impossible for him to pay attention to the situation of every project in detail.
As for the conflicts among the short-distance running coaches, if they really come to him when the final decision is needed, he can help analyze it together. As for now, if each coach has his own ideas, Pei Yongsheng doesn't mind staying invisible on the sidelines.
In short, it has been decided that Su Yu will add 400-meter-related training items during the winter training phase. As for Su Yu’s schedule for the new season, that still needs to be discussed.
Just like what Sun Gaoshu and Liu Qinlong just argued about, next year is a so-called competition year with the World Championships, and the year after is an Olympic year with the Tokyo Olympics. How many athletes have been waiting their entire lives for such an opportunity to compete in the Olympics?
Therefore, in preparation for the two consecutive major competition years next year and the year after, the national team will also organize coaches to conduct further discussions on next year's schedule during the winter training period, and must ensure the training and competition arrangements for key players such as Zheng Tianxi, Feng Chuming, Zhan Youming and Su Yu.
Speaking of this, according to Su Yu's performance this season, he is actually now considered a key player in the national team's sprint group. During this winter training cycle, the national team should have more training resources that begin to favor Su Yu.
Each of these is very complicated and requires further detailed discussion.
But these are all later stories. Now, at least the conclusion of Su Yu's 400-meter test today has been reached - just based on Su Yu's result of 46.88 seconds today, even if Sun Gaoshu and Zheng Sheng want to suppress him, Pei Yongsheng will have to say something.
After all, the 400 meters in China is too difficult.
Although Su Yu's appearance at the moment cannot be called earth-shattering, his result is definitely a young leaf growing on the dead branch of the men's 400 meters, which originally seemed hopeless.
No matter who they are, no matter which project they were originally in charge of, no one would have the heart to let Liu Qinlong forcibly cut off this young leaf.
With all these complicated thoughts, the coaches present and Su Yu finally finished Su Yu's 400-meter test today.
When Pei Dingshan finally followed Su Yu to the office alone, he asked Su Yu how he felt about the test.
Su Yu thought about it and said seriously: "Not bad, but I want to be able to do better."
Obviously, he was still struggling with the mistakes he made in adjusting his rhythm in the last two 100-meter stages of a recent test.
For other players, this is already an excellent result. Su Yu understands that for him, this is actually already good, but when he realizes his shortcomings, he can't help but want to try hard to do better.
Pei Dingshan understood what Su Yu meant, raised his hand and rubbed his head: "It's okay, train well, you can do better next time."
Su Yu listened to Pei Dingshan's comfort, nodded, and said "hmm" silently.
***
In the following time, Su Yu did not rest much, and soon it was time for winter training to begin.
As in previous years, before the winter training begins, all participants will go to the troops for a week-long military training, aimed at emphasizing discipline during the winter training phase.
After the military training, all the athletes participating in the winter training quickly began to devote themselves to their respective winter training plans.
Here in Su Yu, his winter training plan was arranged as Pei Dingshan had said before, to improve his basic physical qualities - after all, compared with other players, his strength and explosive power were still too weak, which had a significant impact on accelerating his future.
Sometimes it’s not that he doesn’t want to burst out and speed up quickly in the early stages, but his physical condition means that he can’t achieve the same early burst speed as other players for the time being.
In addition to strength and explosive power, Su Yu naturally increased the training emphasis on 400-meter related skills during this winter training, including the segmented speed control that he had previously mentioned to Pei Dingshan, which is one of his training focuses during the winter training stage.
During the national team's winter training, Liu Yu brought a sports channel interview team to visit the national team, intending to shoot some short videos to record what can be said to be the most important winter training before the two consecutive major competitions, the World Championships and the Olympics.
When visiting the national team's winter training site, Liu Yu watched Su Yu's training and said in amazement after a while: "... Coach Pei, Su Yu is training...
OK... 400-meter training? ! ”
