Compared to the fourth preliminary group where Ye Jun is located, the players in the fifth preliminary group where Su Zhe is located are equally strong, including Adolf from France, Train from the United States and Elano from Brazil.
With the presence of these three, plus Su Zhe among them, these four people can be said to have almost divided up all the places in this group of preliminaries.
In the commentary booth, Zhang Jing and Wang Miaochuan were also analyzing the strength of the players in this group.
Zhang Jing looked at the performance data in his hand and said solemnly: "Although the athletes in the fifth group of the preliminaries are not top-notch, the three athletes introduced earlier are definitely capable of entering the semi-finals. Not to mention the 110-meter hurdles results of the three athletes, just looking at the 60-meter hurdles results, in the last season, Adolf, Train and Elano all ran a score of less than 7.55 seconds. Especially Elano, in the indoor tour last year, he won two gold medals with a score of 7.49 seconds. From the perspective of the indoor 60-meter hurdles, Elano is completely comparable to Lister and Alcides."
Wang Miaochuan also continued: "Su Zhe's only record in the 60m hurdles is 7.66 seconds at the Japan Indoor Invitational. I wonder if the two months of winter training will be enough for him to catch up with these three strong competitors?"
Next to the two, Lu Fei hesitated for a moment, then spoke: "There is definitely improvement in performance. For example, Tian Jue could easily run 7.59 seconds in the first preliminaries, which was definitely not his best performance. Ye Jun also ran 7.65 seconds in the fourth preliminaries. Compared to the Japan Indoor Invitational, I can responsibly say that the three of them have made great progress in winter training."
After a pause, Lu Fei continued, "Unlike Tian Jue and Ye Jun, in the hurdles event, during the winter training period, Su Zhe, with the cooperation of the coaching staff, has initially completed the technical improvement from eight to seven..."
? !
"Eight to seven?!"
As soon as Lu Fei said this, Zhang Jing and Wang Miaochuan were both shocked.
Wang Miaochuan asked: "In the previous interview about winter training, you mentioned the secret training for Su Zhe. Does that mean the transformation of his footwork in front of the hurdles? But considering Su Zhe's height and explosiveness, is it appropriate for him to carry out such technical transformation now?"
"This is indeed a risky attempt," Lu Fei said calmly and earnestly, "but we also collected data from various sources beforehand and also looked at the situations of some athletes before we made this decision. If we were only concerned about Su Zhe's height, Holness, who was in the third group of the preliminaries, was only 1.8 meters tall, and the stride he used to get to the hurdles was seven steps."
Finally, Lu Fei said: "Today, Su Zhe will use the seven-step technique for the first time in the competition. He is still fine-tuning this technique. Our real goal is to hope that he can master this technique more proficiently in this year's Olympic season, so as to further improve his performance."
Lu Fei's series of explanations made Zhang Jing and Wang Miaochuan feel slightly relieved, but they were still worried because they had not seen Su Zhe actually use the seven-step technique in the game.
On the Internet, many track and field fans in front of the live broadcast screen were also shocked after hearing what Lu Fei mentioned about the final transformation. It is not so easy to transform the pace in front of the hurdles. Even Song Chen suffered a lot when he was doing the corresponding transformation in front of the hurdles. This transformation is not just about making the steps bigger, but involves all aspects including the adjustment of the power leg at the start, the starting posture, the force method, the starting rhythm and other details.
Is two months of winter training enough for Su Zhe to complete this technical transformation?
Even if what Lu Fei said is correct, and the real goal of this technical transformation is the Olympic season, then do you not plan to keep the hurdles results before the Olympics?
Many track and field fans became worried and posted on forums to express their concerns.
[I was full of confidence in Zhe Shao before, but now I am a little afraid to watch Zhe Shao's game... After 3 months of winter training, this is the first game in which he changed his steps from eight to seven... Damn, why am I so nervous? ]
[To be honest, brother, I was a little panicked... Of course, we all know that it didn't take too long for Song Shen to upgrade from eight to seven, but when I heard the news today, I was still a little scared.]
【Compared to Song, Zhe Shao still has more disadvantages in changing from 8 to 7... Song Shen's explosive power at the start is needless to say. Song Shen's height of 1.95 meters is much more advantageous than Zhe Shao. Zhe Shao does have one less step in front of the hurdle, but while the stride length is increased, can the stride frequency be maintained at the same level as before? If not, which one should be compared to calculate the time loss in between?】
With only a short period of preparation time before the start of the competition, the track and field kingdom middle school had already built a tall building of analysis on the pros and cons of Su Zhe's technical transformation.
[The competition is about to begin. Let’s see if it will work or not. Let’s see the effect of Zhe Shao’s technical modification on the spot…]
Amid the worries of many track and field fans, the fifth group of the men's 60m hurdles preliminaries was about to begin.
At the starting point, all the athletes have completed the adjustment of their starting blocks. The front and back position of Su Zhe's starting blocks have also changed greatly compared with the past because he has to change his starting power leg.
With his hands on the ground, Su Zhe took a deep breath after stepping onto the starting blocks.
Although this will be his first major competition using the seven-step technique, he feels that his condition at the moment is exceptionally good. Whether it is physical, mental, or overall condition, he feels that today he is in the best pre-match condition of all his competitions.
He felt that today, even with the status bonus of the sand sculpture system, it would be difficult for him to take his overall condition to the next level.
Just when he thought of the sand sculpture system, the long-lost mechanical sound unexpectedly rang in his mind - the host's current physical and mental state has reached the maximum value, and adding it to the cross-bar LV3 skill state buff will result in a numerical overflow.
To avoid value overflow, the value of this status buff will be automatically adjusted down.
Congratulations to the host for triggering the value overflow state for the first time and starting a new mission.
Mission: Deepen learning
Mission objective: Trigger the value overflow state 3 times
Mission Rewards: Enable in-depth learning of various skills
???
The sound of the sand sculpture system surprised Su Zhe for a moment, but he was on the court at the moment and did not have extra time to think about the in-depth content related to the sand sculpture system.
After putting the mission content of the sand sculpture system behind his mind, Su Zhe once again focused all his attention on the current arena.
"Everyone, get ready."
After the referee's calm voice, the starting gun immediately sounded the start signal - "Bang!"
After the crisp sound of the gun, there was a long cheer and shouts of encouragement, as well as the sound of each athlete's own heartbeat that only they could hear!
This more exciting and stimulating state brought about by the tense heartbeat makes everyone on the field excited.
At the moment of starting, Su Zhe clearly felt how good his condition was today. He captured the sound of the gun sharply, exerted force with his left leg, and took a strong first step!
It is difficult to change from eight to seven, but after the technical transformation is truly completed, the advantages are also coveted.
It is for this reason that many top players in European and American competitions choose the seven-step technique. For example, Elano, who is also in this competition, also uses the seven-step technique. He is nearly 198 cm tall, and using the eight-step technique in front of the hurdles would make him feel too constrained.
Elano, who was in the 5th lane, did not notice that the Chinese player next to him, who was nearly 20 cm shorter than him, dared to use the seven-step approach to the hurdles.
In the previous few months of training, although the comprehensive attribute improvement training provided by the sand sculpture system has not been fully completed, Su Zhe has already completed all the training in explosive power.
Coupled with the explosive power training designed for him by Su Yinsheng and Lu Fei, Su Zhe has now made an amazing improvement in his explosive power. Moreover, after actually using his left leg as the power leg, Su Zhe discovered that his left leg seemed to have more advantages than his right leg when starting to run - the explosive power generated by his left leg when stretching at the start is actually 10-20% higher than that of his right leg!
At the moment of starting, this powerful explosive force almost gave Su Zhe the illusion of flying forward. This explosive power allowed Su Zhe to easily complete the initial stage of power accumulation.
From the explosive start to quickly raising the center of gravity and sprinting forward, Su Zhe's series of movements were very smooth and natural!
One step, two steps, three steps...
It can be seen that after the modification, Su Zhe's stride length in these seven steps in front of the hurdles has been significantly improved compared with previous competitions, but the decrease in stride frequency that everyone is worried about has not shown a very obvious trend.
At the same time, due to the strong explosive force of Su Zhe's left leg extension, he was able to complete the initial transition from static to dynamic more quickly in the initial starting stage.
"Good!" In the commentary booth, Lu Fei was the first to say the word "good". Apparently, Su Zhe's performance in front of the fence was better than he expected!
Zhang Jing and Wang Miaochuan also had excitement in their eyes. Apart from anything else, almost all of Su Zhe's domestic competitions since he started competing have been commented on by the two of them. From last year to this year, they both had a feeling that they had accompanied Su Zhe in his growth.
As a young track and field talent, they do not want Su Zhe to encounter unnecessary setbacks due to the risks of technological transformation.
On the track, Su Zhe arrived at the hurdle smoothly after starting.
Due to the technical characteristics of the seven-step approach, he was already in a state of attacking with his body leaning forward and pressing down in front of the hurdle. The kinetic energy accumulated during these seven steps quickly sent him over the first hurdle after he pushed off the ground with his rising leg!
This is a perfect first column performance!
The attacking posture and speed are as smooth as flowing water. Even bystanders can feel the smooth movement!
"Unbelievable!" Zhang Jing looked at the situation on the field in amazement: "Su Zhe is leading at the same time as Elano! Elano's condition is a little relaxed. He may not have thought that the Chinese athlete next to him can actually lead with him on the 60-meter hurdles track!"
As Zhang Jing said, Elano did not realize Su Zhe's step-by-step approach to him at first. His strength in the 60-meter hurdles was basically on par with Lister and Alcides. In the 60-meter arena, several people often took turns sitting on the throne of victory, and there had been no Chinese on this throne for many years.
Even though Su Zhe had achieved good results in the 110-meter hurdles at the World Championships, Elano did not really take Su Zhe seriously in the 60-meter event.
Until now.
When Elano crossed the second railing, she discovered Su Zhe's figure not far behind her.
This discovery surprised him a little.
In the preliminaries, he certainly didn't show his full strength, but that doesn't mean that any ordinary player can catch up with his speed.
Just like in the game at this moment, in addition to Su Zhe, Train from the American team and Adolf from the French team are also on the field. Compared with Su Zhe's approach, these two are slightly behind by half a body length.
Elano frowned and quickened his pace between the columns, trying to get rid of the Chinese player behind him on the left, but Su Zhe also quickened his pace without hesitation!
!
Su Zhe's move made Elano's heart skip a beat. This Chinese player hasn't reached his limit yet!
At this moment, Su Zhe really felt that he had not yet reached his true limit. This state of excellent feeling made him unable to help but further speed up his rhythm and pace between columns.
According to his original 110-meter hurdles pace, he should reach his maximum hurdle speed at the seventh hurdle. Even in the 60-meter hurdles with an earlier pace, he usually reaches his maximum hurdle speed at the fifth hurdle.
At this time, at the stage of the 4th column, his speed has reached his maximum speed!
In the face of Suzhe's relentless pressure, Elano decided to leave Suzhe alone and focus on accelerating forward to the hurdles. However, the situation did not go as he wished. When he focused his mind back on his own track, his technical movements when attacking the last hurdle were slightly deformed. When his swinging leg crossed the hurdle, it had a slight contact with the hurdle, causing the hurdle to shake slightly.
Elanor hit the fence!
Even though this hurdle action didn't have much impact on him, it definitely slowed him down a bit.
While Elano was hitting the fence and jumping over it, Suzhe also successfully and perfectly attacked the fifth fence in front of him!
Elanor and Suzhe crossed the fifth railing almost at the same time, followed closely by Train and Adolf.
Only the final sprint stage is left!
After reaching the flat sprint stage, the leading four-man group, led by Elano and Suzhe, began to rush towards the finish line at the fastest speed.
Elano and Suzhe were slightly faster by half a body length at the final moment, and Suzhe, with his excellent condition today and the explosive kinetic energy accumulated from attacking the hurdles all the way, took his speed to a higher level in the final sprint stage!
"The first player to advance to the next round of the men's 60m hurdles preliminary round is Su Zhe!!!"
In the commentary booth, Wang Miaochuan shouted this almost in an incredible tone, and he was slightly unable to control his excitement.
This preliminary round was too amazing for them. How could Suzhe beat Elano, a world-class 60m athlete?!
After the referee team officially announced the players' results, both the audience and Zhang Jing and Wang Miaochuan in the commentary booth felt extremely proud of the results.
"Ranking of men's 60m hurdles: first place, Su Zhe (China), 7.53 seconds; second place, Elano (Brazil), 7.55 seconds; third place, Adolf (France), 7.60 seconds; fourth place, Train (USA), 7.62 seconds..."
The preliminary result of 7.53 seconds would be ranked among the top ten even in the world rankings for the 19th season.
At the sponge wall in front of the finish line, Elano looked at Suzhe with an incredible look. Only after seeing the final ranking did Elano pat Suzhe on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up.
"You are strong, buddy." Elano said to Su Zhe, "But I will be stronger in the next game."
Hearing Elano's declaration, Su Zhe also smiled and nodded to him: "I am also looking forward to the next game."
After finishing his conversation with Elano, Su Zhe waved to the audience again, and then left the competition venue with his teammates amid the audience's enthusiastic and excited cheers.
It is already past eleven in the morning. In the previous competition, he was a little too excited because of his excellent condition. The physical energy he used in the preliminaries exceeded his original plan. He must return to the rest area as soon as possible, adjust his physical and mental state, and prepare for tonight's 60-meter sprint final!
On the Internet, Su Zhe's excellent performance in the 60-meter hurdles preliminaries has caused another wave of excited discussions among track and field fans. Before the game, fans were still worried about the effect of Su Zhe's technical transformation, but within less than a minute, all the previous worries turned into excitement after the game.
[Fuck, I'm uneducated, I can only say that Zhe Shao is awesome, which big shot can come out and praise Zhe Shao who is educated???]
【I am educated, but now I can only say lame! Zhe Shao's 8 to 7 success! Let me do the math... Jue'er's final score in the Japan Invitational was 7.65 seconds, and in today's preliminaries it was 7.59 seconds. Jun Ye's score in the Japan Invitational was 7.70 seconds, and today it was 7.65 seconds. In other words, theoretically, Zhe Shao's improvement should be about the same level. So theoretically, if Zhe Shao runs in the same state as Jue'er and the others, his speed should be around 7.60 seconds. Even if Zhe Shao is running at full speed, his speed is about 7.57 seconds. But Zhe Shao's final score in the preliminaries just now was 7.53 seconds. I can reasonably suspect that Zhe Shao should have touched the edge of a score under 7.50 seconds now! 】
【At this time, I just want to say that the reform of the steps in front of the column is really good. 】
On the second day of the World Indoor Athletics Championships, the official media on the Internet remained in a happy mood. Zhou Tianjue and Su Zhe both won first place in the 60-meter hurdles preliminary group, and three athletes from the Chinese team simultaneously entered the 60-meter hurdles semi-finals of the indoor championships.
Regardless of the title or content, it is filled with an irresistible joy.
The official V of the national track and field team: [#World Indoor Track and Field Championships Day 2# Congratulations to @Chou Tien-jue, @Su Zhe, @Ye Jun for advancing to the semi-finals of this year's indoor championships, once again breaking the history of Chinese track and field! At the same time, I also wish @Su Zhe an excellent result in the men's 60m sprint final to be held at 8:50 tonight! ]
Bystanders, media, and track and field fans, these three groups of people have all experienced great joy in the past two consecutive days of the World Indoor Athletics Championships. Not only Su Zhe and his friends, but also many other athletes from the national track and field team have achieved equally excellent results.
Good news came one after another, making everyone feel excited.
In such a happy and excited atmosphere, the time has gradually turned to 8:50 in the evening - the men's 60m final of this year's World Indoor Track and Field Championships is about to begin!
Among the 56 contestants from all over the world, those who finally won the final place were Evanson and Gates from the United States, Carlos from Spain, Hilme from Jamaica, Hassan from Iran, Toure from Côte d'Ivoire, Archie from the United Kingdom and Su Zhe from the Chinese team.
Among these finalists, the majority are 100m athletes, but there are also some strong athletes like Archie whose main event is 200m.
As is customary in all major competitions, each athlete was given a separate spotlight appearance time before the finals. Before the athletes came on stage, the audience was already looking forward to it, giving warm cheers and blessings to the finalists.
Under the spotlight, these world-class track and field athletes stepped onto their own competition stage one after another. After smiling and waving to the audience, they quickly came to their own race tracks and began to make final preparations for the final competition.
When Su Zhe appeared under the spotlight, the atmosphere on the scene reached its climax - this is the proud Chinese athlete in the final, this is their compatriot, and this is also one of the athletes representing the top level of China's current track and field sprint events.
"Master Zhe!! We are all proud of you!!!"
"Come on Su Zhe!!!"
Under the strong spotlight, Su Zhe couldn't really see the audience around him clearly, but every voice of support was engraved in his heart.
The moment Su Zhe lowered his head, he saw the Chinese team uniform on his body again.
Keep up the good work!
For my desire to pursue speed, for capturing the exhilarating feeling of speed on the track, for living up to the support of the audience, and for the red glory on my body.
"All the players have appeared and are making final preparations before the game!"
In the commentary booth, Zhang Jing, Wang Miaochuan and Su Yinsheng were paying attention to every detail on the court.
After arranging the starting blocks, Su Zhe covered his left chest with his right hand. He could feel his heart beating violently. This feeling surging from his blood made him gradually excited.
He had just felt this feeling during the game in the morning!
Sure enough, the system prompt sound came again.
[It is detected that the host's current physical and mental states are approaching the maximum value, and adding them to the state buff of the sprint LV3 skill will cause a value overflow. To avoid value overflow, the value of this state buff will be automatically adjusted down. ]
[Number of times the value overflows: 2/3]
Su Zhe looked at the finish line in front of the track with excitement.
He originally thought that his final result in tonight's competition would be just outside the 6.50 second mark. But since today's condition was so good, why not try to challenge the world under 6.50 seconds?
When the assistant referee signaled all the athletes to enter the preparation stage, Su Zhe withdrew his hand from his left chest, and after stretching his muscles slightly, he squatted on the starting blocks like all the athletes, supported himself with his hands, and made the final preparations before the start.
The lights at the venue had already been turned back on, and the spectators, at the instruction of the staff, began to hold their breath and concentrate, not daring to disturb the athletes on the track.
After taking a long, deep breath, Su Zhe heard the referee's voice on the radio.
"Everyone, take your positions."
"Be prepared."
The calm voice of the referee made everyone tense up and wait for the moment when the starting gun sounded.
Soon, the crisp sound of a starting gun rang out!
"Bang!"
At this command, everyone on the starting blocks responded and in tonight's competition, almost every athlete ran a shooting reaction score of less than 0.170!
In the reaction stage, except for Carlos who unexpectedly ran only 0.297, the reaction speeds of the rest of the players were not bad!
This is a competition where almost all players are in good shape!
With a reaction score of 0.121, Su Zhe still gained a slight advantage in the reaction stage. In this final, he could no longer restrain himself from releasing his explosive power.
With a powerful push of his right leg, he once again felt the feeling of flying forward!
This is an illusion that makes people feel like they are flying. With the help of this initial explosive power, after he accelerates from the start, his initial explosive power and the skillful application of explosive power have greatly improved his performance in the acceleration phase!
On the track, in addition to Suzhe who was in excellent form, Gates, Evenson and Toure all showed excellent starting postures.
At this time, at 15 meters on the track, several people were competing for the leading position. Although Su Zhe was slightly behind, after gradually accelerating to the maximum speed, he was still trying to increase his pace and squeeze into the leading group in front.
The 60-meter track is so short that Su Zhe cannot fully display his power in the later stages, and it is also so short that Gate, Evanson and others cannot fully display their maximum speed and advantages.
Compared with the three 100m runners, Toure, as a 200m runner, is stronger in speed and endurance, but in the sprint stage from 50m to 60m, he is unable to enter the real sprint mode for a while.
Everyone has their own unique advantages and weaknesses on this track. It all depends on who can completely stabilize their state on this track, maintain the accuracy of their technical movements, and ultimately seize the winning position!
"Su Zhe! Come on!!!"
In the audience seats, the audience was cheering loudly.
In the commentary booth, Zhang Jing and Wang Miaochuan were also cheering for Su Zhe loudly.
"Su Zhe had a great start!"
"He has the advantage!!"
"The four people in the leading group are now in a very stable position. Toure's acceleration ability in the first 60 meters is slightly inferior!"
As Zhang Jing and others were giving their excited commentary, Su Zhe had already slightly passed Toure. Compared to Toure, he was already one step closer to victory!
Hurry up.
Faster!
Su Zhe constantly adjusted his breathing frequency, the speed and posture of his arm swings. While swinging his arms, he also led the movement of his hips, and at the same time, he tried his best to mobilize the strength of his whole body to increase his pace.
He believes that he can do it!
"Su Zhe! Come on!!!"
In the audience seats, the audience's shouting at the top of their lungs reached Su Zhe's ears. His boiling blood was burning, and his excited emotions were also providing him with the most powerful strength.
It can be faster. He can be even faster!
It was this belief that allowed Su Zhe to speed up his pace on the track bit by bit. His speed on this 60-meter track reached an unprecedented height!
On the same level as him, Gaiter and Evanson were also competing for the leading position, but on the track heading to the key point, Gaiter's right foot swayed slightly, and for a moment, his technical movements lost balance!
It was this moment of imbalance that caused him to fall slightly behind!
At this point, everyone had reached the final sprint stage. Su Zhe, relying on the momentum he had accumulated along the way, rushed forward in a sprinting posture. Everyone took out a competitive posture of leaning over the line.
After slightly deforming his movements, Gate quickly adjusted his movements, but his sprint was already a step late!
Under everyone's attention, Evanson of the American team was the first to cross the finish line.
Following closely behind is a red figure!
Su Zhe!!!
It’s Su Zhe!!!
In the commentary booth, Zhang Jing and Wang Miaochuan almost jumped up with excitement, but the audience in the audience had long since ignored all that and everyone stood up excitedly.
Zhang Jing was almost unwilling to suppress the excitement in his voice: "Second place!!! Silver medal!! This is Su Zhe's first international competition medal! It is also our honor!"
"Congratulations Su Zhe!!!"
