After Zhang Guan crossed the finish line, he looked around and found that no one was paying attention to him, so he prepared to leave.
"Don't leave yet." A voice came from behind him. He looked back and saw an old man and a middle-aged man walking over.
"Two examiners, can I leave?" Zhang Guan asked.
"Your name is Zhang Guan, right? My surname is Chen, his surname is Zhou, and we are both coaches of the provincial track and field team." The old man introduced himself first, and then asked: "Do you want to join the provincial team and follow me? practice?"
"Provincial team?" Zhang Guan was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Aren't all the provincial teams professional athletes?"
The old man named Chen nodded: "Yes, they are all professional athletes. If you come, you are also a professional athlete."
"Why choose me?" Zhang Guan asked immediately.
"Your 100-meter speed is very fast. If you can strengthen your training, you will definitely become a leader in the domestic sprint event. In the future, you can also compete abroad and win glory for the country!" Coach Zhou replied very officially.
"No." Zhang Guan shook his head. If he were really a seventeen-year-old young man, he might have been fooled easily, but Zhang Guan knew that being an athlete was a very hard thing, and he would probably never be able to get out of school in his lifetime. score.
Seeing Zhang Guan's refusal, Coach Zhou immediately said: "I have a quota for admission to the provincial sports college. If you join the track and field team, this quota will be yours."
"Really?" Zhang Guan suddenly felt a little moved.
According to the original trajectory of his life, Zhang Guan finally got admitted to a local second-tier university and studied sports management. After graduation, he got into the sports bureau's career establishment by some random luck and lived a normal life. A leisurely life of trading stocks online and playing games at home in the evening. Zhang Guan's academic performance makes it impossible for him to be admitted to a first-class college, but now the admission quota to a first-class college is a real benefit to Zhang Guan.
At this moment, Zhang Guan suddenly recalled the excitement of his parents when he was admitted to college. Although it was only two books, he could still feel the pride of his parents. And if he could be recommended to go to a university, Zhang Guan felt that it might be a great gift for his parents, so Zhang Guan made his decision almost instantly.
"If you can really recommend me to the provincial sports university, I will join." Zhang Guan said.
…
After returning home, Zhang Guan couldn't wait to start studying the system in his mind. But what disappoints him is that he can't open the skill bar at all. The reason is that he is in the novice teaching mode and the system function has not been activated yet. All he can do now is to use the "sprint" skill.
Zhang Guan didn't know how the novice teaching would end, but the next novice task was to participate in a formal competition.
"Participate in a formal competition? Where can I find a formal competition? Aren't you kidding me..." Zhang Guan looked at the task prompt with some helplessness. Obviously, if he did not complete this novice task, novice teaching would not be carried out, so he just No other energy in the system can be tapped.
…
Provincial sports team athlete dormitory.
Zhang Guan, who had just come to report, was sorting out his belongings. A thin young man was lying on the bed next to him, holding a martial arts novel in his hand. He was reading and chatting with Zhang Guan.
This thin man's name is Wang Kai. He is also an athlete on the track and field team, specializing in the 1,500-meter long-distance running event. He is also Zhang Guan's roommate.
At this moment, Wang Kai was lying on the bed with his legs crossed, holding a martial arts novel in one hand, and clasping his feet with the other hand. He said intentionally or unintentionally: "I said Zhang Guan, you are really lucky. I heard that, Mr. Chen will teach you personally!"
"Mr. Chen? Is he that old man in his sixties? Isn't he very powerful?" Zhang Guan said and piled the clothes he brought into the closet.
Wang Kai suddenly turned over and sat up, and said: "You can play in this track and field team. You don't know what others can do, but you must know Mr. Chen! Do you know who he is? He used to be the coach of our national track and field team. Former He has retired a few years ago, and it was the leaders of the Provincial Sports Department who finally invited him to come to our place."
When Wang Kai said this, he found that Zhang Guan didn't have much reaction, and then said: "Speaking of Mr. Chen, he was the 'number one' in track and field in our country, and he was the fastest person in the world."
"The fastest man in the world? Isn't that a world record?" Zhang Guan smiled, and then said: "Brother Wang, I don't study well, so don't lie to me. I know hundreds of things about our country. In terms of meters, the Asian record was broken in the 1980s, but the world record has never been broken."
"The coach who led the team when the Asian record was broken was Mr. Chen." Wang Kai continued: "In the era of hand counting, Mr. Chen once ran a time of 10 seconds, and this time was the fastest in the world at the time. , Mr. Chen tied the 100-meter world record at that time. Before Mr. Chen, only four people in the world had ever run a time of 10 seconds. Mr. Chen was the fifth person to run 10 seconds! You say he is awesome Not Powerful?"
"It turns out it's him!" Zhang Guan nodded. Zhang Guan had heard about Mr. Chen's deeds when he was young, but he never expected that the man who was regarded by the West as "the fifth fastest man in the world" "It's the old man I saw a few days ago.
Just listen to Wang Kai add: "Now there are many people in the national track and field team and the General Administration of Sports who are Mr. Chen's disciples. For example, Coach Yu of the national track and field team was once a teammate and disciple of Mr. Chen. It can be said that if Chen If I can recommend him, there is absolutely no problem in joining the national team."
…
The next day, Zhang Guan did not start training directly, but conducted a series of physical tests. At the same time, the 100-meter test was conducted again, and Mr. Chen was completely reassured by the hand-timed result of 10.32 seconds.
In the afternoon, Mr. Chen frowned when he looked at the data in the physical test report. Judging from the physical test data alone, there is nothing outstanding about Zhang Guan. Various data are far from those of professional athletes, and even amateur athletes are not as good as them.
"There is no merit at all. This is simply the data of an ordinary person. It's strange, how can you run so fast with this kind of data." Old Chen threw the physical test report to the side: "Forget it, when I was running, how could I run so fast? There are so many messy things, but I won’t still win the prize.”
…
Mr. Chen handed a thick stack of draft paper to Zhang Guan and said, "This is your training plan for the next month. Let's take a look at it first."
Zhang Guan looked at this handwritten plan, which was accurate to every time of day. He could feel that Mr. Chen spent a lot of energy writing this plan.
Just listen to Chen Lao continue to say: "I have analyzed your current situation in detail. Generally speaking, your current problem is the lack of professional training. Your starting is still at the amateur level, your starting reaction time is very slow, and even your posture is poor." It is not very standard, which will affect your power at the starting stage; you lack control of the rhythm during the exercise, and there is no exercise technique at all; in addition, you lack physical strength, and there is a loss of power in the last short section, which is huge. It affects the speed of sprinting.”
Zhang Guan nodded in agreement. Chen Lao's analysis was very reasonable. He was originally a novice among amateur athletes and had no sports skills at all. Only the last one slowed down because the effect of the skill "Sprint" disappeared.
Mr. Chen continued: "As a professional athlete, the foundation must be solid. You are relatively young and have no skills at all. It is a good time to lay the foundation. So all training for you will start from scratch. The next two Month, your main practice is starting. Your starting posture needs to be corrected, and your starting reaction time should be faster. My initial goal is that after two months, your starting reaction time will be very stable within 0.3 seconds."
The smaller the range of a person's movement, the faster the reaction. Generally, the reaction time for a slight movement such as moving the index finger is between 0.2 and 0.3 seconds, while the reaction time for a large movement such as starting to run is longer.
The starting reaction time is affected by the person's training level and the state at the time. The starting reaction time of a normal person is between 0.5 seconds and 1 second, which varies due to individual differences; the driver's emergency braking time in response to emergencies The reaction time is 0.4 seconds, which means that the reaction time of human beings performing skilled movements is 0.4 seconds; and the reaction time of trained athletes will be even shorter. Taking professional sprinters as an example, their starting reaction time is 0.2 Within seconds, this time limit of less than 0.2 seconds is not just a matter of reaching the standard once, twice or several times, but a relatively stable value.
In international competitions, sprinters' starting reaction time is often around 0.15 seconds. If it reaches 0.14 seconds, it means that the start is very successful. If it exceeds 0.17 seconds, it means that the starting reaction time is slow.
If you want to shorten the starting reaction time, you need to go through a lot of training to let the body and muscles remember the starting action. This itself requires a process and requires time accumulation. For beginners, it takes two months to improve the starting reaction by 0.1 seconds. Time, although not difficult, is not an easy task either.
Just listen to Mr. Chen continue to say: "In September this year, the 15th Asian Track and Field Championships will be held in the Philippines. The news I received is that the General Administration of Sports has prepared about 50 places for the competition, but this has nothing to do with you. But in early July, that is, two months later, the Asian Track and Field Championships trials will be held in Tianjin, and this has something to do with you. The quota limit for this trial is relatively broad, and it is an opportunity for many young athletes to exercise. I am going to let you give it a try to familiarize yourself with the competition environment, and at the same time show your face so that everyone can get to know you. This is a rare opportunity, and you must seize it."
"Mr. Chen, is this trial a formal competition?" Zhang Guan asked expectantly.
Mr. Chen nodded: "Of course, it is a formal competition organized by the National Athletics Association."
Zhang Guan suddenly felt excited, and secretly thought to himself that he would get whatever he wanted. The task of "participating in an official competition" in the system had been hanging there. Originally, Zhang Guan was still worried about how to complete this task, but he did not expect that the opportunity for the competition was just right. Delivered to your door.
