All-round Athlete

Chapter 110 The King of Track and Field

The 400-meter sprint is the hardest of all sprint events. It has high requirements on athletes' physiology, special skills, physical fitness, physical distribution and other aspects.

First of all, in terms of physiology, due to the long distance of the 400-meter sprint, anaerobic accounts for a large proportion and aerobic accounts for a small proportion during the entire exercise process, so this is a mixed-oxygen sprint event. During exercise, especially in the second half of 400 meters, the high-speed exercise in front causes the body to consume oxygen, and the body will be in a state of hypoxia. At this time, the amount of oxygen absorbed is lower than the demand for adenosine triphosphate. Glycogen in the body is broken down into lactic acid to provide new energy. This process is actually a test for athletes, so it is often seen on the training ground that 400-meter athletes will hold their stomachs and look like they are going to vomit, which is actually a normal reaction of the body in an anaerobic state.

In terms of specific technology, the 400m and 200m are technically common to a certain extent, but the 400m has a curve and a straight track, which means that the technical details must be different. At the same time, due to the relatively long distance, the distribution of physical strength and the adjustment of rhythm have become the key points. It is impossible for athletes to rush too hard as soon as they come up, nor can they not exert their strength at all. The physical strength is squeezed clean, so the athletes have to come to the field to adjust according to the actual physical condition during the competition, which also puts forward new requirements for the athletes.

In the system, Zhang Guan found a skill. The name of this skill is "Incomplete Impulse Activation". The skill description of the normal level is "In the state of sprinting or cornering sprint, activate this skill, you will get 75% of the original effect of sprinting or cornering sprint, the physical consumption will be reduced to 60%, and the effect will disappear after turning off the skill"; the effect of expert level Increased by 5%, consumption decreased by 5%; master level increased by 5% on expert level, consumption decreased by 5%, reached "obtain 85% of the original effect of sprinting or cornering sprint, and reduce stamina consumption to 50 %".

There is no limit to the duration of this skill, and the effect can be eliminated by canceling the skill directly, but there is a prerequisite for using it, that is, the interval between two uses must be greater than 30 seconds.

For the 400-meter sprint, this is definitely a magical skill. Controlling the speed and rhythm and conserving energy are the biggest difficulties in the 400-meter sprint, but this "incomplete sprint activation" skill can do just that. So Zhang Guan spent three skill points without hesitation to upgrade this skill to the master level.

Zhang Guan did not tell Director Yu that he wanted to practice 400 meters. He knew that if he told Director Yu, he would definitely scold him because of his temper, saying that he would learn to run before he even learned to walk. But Zhang Guan also has other ways.

At dinner, Zhang Guan sat in front of two athletes who specialize in the 400-meter event. At first, he pretended to chat, but Zhang Guan then brought the topic to the 400-meter event. When mentioning their own special event, the two athletes immediately showed a look of knowing everything.

"The start of the 400-meter sprint is not as important as the 100-meter or 200-meter. The 100-meter start is a race against time, and the 400-meter start is more important to make the next acceleration smoother. The first of the 400-meter race The 100 meters is a curve. At this stage, you need to accelerate first. Generally, you only exert 70% to 80% of your strength. After quickly increasing your speed, you will immediately turn to a uniform speed. The whole curve must maintain a certain rhythm. The second 100 meters is a straight road. It is said to be a straight road, but in fact it is only a straight line of 80 meters. This stage is mainly running at a high speed at a constant speed. The key point is to control the rhythm. Don’t try your best, but you can’t be too slow. Try to keep yourself in a more comfortable rhythm. The third 100-meter run is the most difficult in the 400-meter run. The main reason is that the body's function has begun to decline, and at this stage it is necessary to adjust the rhythm of the exercise, and try to adjust the physical condition to the best state as possible to cope with the next challenge. The last 100-meter sprint. As for the last 100-meter sprint, there is nothing to say, just run as fast as you can!" said a 400-meter athlete.

"It sounds so complicated!" Zhang Guan said very teachably: "How do you control your breathing? You can reach the finish line in one breath when running 100 meters. How do you breathe for 400 meters?"

Another person said: "Two steps, one exhalation, two steps and one inhalation, or three steps, one exhalation, three steps and one inhalation. Different athletes use different methods. Everyone's physique is different, so it's hard to say which method is better. It’s better, you can only choose the method that suits you more. However, whether you choose two-step breathing or three-step breathing, you must increase the breathing depth as much as possible to increase the oxygen content in your body.”

"Is there anything else that needs attention?" Zhang Guan then asked.

"That's a lot. For example, the warm-up before running is very important. If the 400-meter warm-up is not done well, it is easy to get injured. I am not talking about physical trauma, but internal organ injuries. It will be more troublesome to recover; and That is, the pace should be as large as possible during the first half of the run, which can reduce the frequency of some steps, reduce physical exertion, and ensure more speed reserves; in addition, enter the straight from the first corner and enter the second from the straight At the first corner, the rhythm and pace need to be adjusted quickly, otherwise the speed will be greatly affected; in addition, in the second corner..."

As the other party said, Zhang Guan nodded and kept it in his heart silently, but this way of talking on paper made Zhang Guan's heart itch, and he couldn't wait to go to the sports field to experience it for himself.

...

As the night deepens, the temperature is very suitable, but there is a faint moisture in the air. The dense branches and leaves hanging on the trees on the roadside somewhat block the street lights, and the dim light shines on the ground through the gaps in the leaves, forming strange scenes. Shapes, when the breeze comes from time to time, these shapes start to change like little monsters.

Director Yu walked on the sidewalk with a face full of alcohol. His family members are all in the capital, so the time after get off work is a special kind of torment for him every day, and he will think of his family members. So occasionally he would call a few colleagues to a nearby tavern, order a few small dishes, and drink a bottle of wine to ease the loneliness in his heart. But those colleagues all live in this city, so after the party is over, everyone will go home, and Director Yu can only return to the dormitory of the training base alone.

Seeing that he was about to walk to the entrance of the training base, Director Yu felt a little irritable. He was alone in the dormitory, and when he went back, he could only face the TV. This made the active man feel very bored.

Suddenly, he saw that there seemed to be a glimmer of light on the training ground that had not been extinguished. He walked over subconsciously, and sure enough, he saw someone still training.

"It's so late, and someone is still training, who is it!" Director Yu approached slowly, but found a familiar figure, it was Zhang Guan! But Zhang Guan did not find Yu Guidance in the dark.

"It's Zhang Guan!" Director Yu was surprised at first, and then a gratified smile appeared on his face. When he saw that Zhang Guan was still practicing in the middle of the night, the depressed loneliness in his heart disappeared instantly. At this moment, he felt that the sacrifices he had made before were all worthwhile.

"Okay, that's great! This kid has finally grown up! He knows that his skills still need to be improved, so he came to practice more in the middle of the night. It's good to work hard, although this kid's ability to learn special skills is indeed a little weaker , but the physical talent is amazing, and now I know how to work hard, the future is limitless!" Director Yu admired, while continuing to hide in the dark, observing Zhang Guan's training.

Then, he saw Zhang Guan running from the corner into the straight, and then did not stop at the end of the straight, but then ran into the next corner.

"Why did you run too far!" Director Yu almost yelled, the finish line of 200 meters is at the end of the straight, so Director Yu thought that Zhang Guan should stop after crossing the straight, but unexpectedly Zhang Guan continued to run forward.

"What is he doing?" Director Yu felt a little baffled, and then he saw Zhang Guan ran through the curve again, entered the straight again, and then started sprinting at an extremely fast speed.

"Why does it feel like I'm running 400 meters? No, this is running 400 meters!" Even if he was overwhelmed by drunkenness, Director Yu is still the best sprint coach in China. He made a precise judgment in an instant, Zhang Guan is Running 400 meters.

"Is this a sprint after eating and running! I haven't run 200 meters yet, so I ran 400 meters! I want to learn to run before I can walk! 400 meters is the most difficult sprint. Don't you think it's the same as running 100 meters? Charge forward without thinking!" Director Yu felt a little angry, and he was going to step forward to teach Zhang Guan a good lesson.

But then he stopped again. He saw that Zhang Guan seemed to be thinking, and then started to do warm-up exercises again. Since the guide didn't come forward, he decided to observe first.

After resting for more than ten minutes, Zhang Guan stood on the starting line again, and it was the starting line of the 400-meter sprint. This time, Director Yu finally confirmed that Zhang Guan was really running 400 meters.

Director Yu was about to step forward again, but at this time Zhang Guan had already started walking.

"Huh? This speed seems to be good, and the sense of rhythm seems to be quite good!" Director Yu stopped again and continued to observe. He saw that Zhang Guan entered the straight from the curve, and then entered the curve from the straight again. .

"It's bad, it's bad! That's not how you run from a curve to a straight, ouch, it's even worse to run from a straight to a curve!" Director Yu complained a few words, but then found that Zhang Guan's sense of rhythm is very good, especially But the distribution of speed in the first half looks very good.

"The distribution of speed is very good, and the degree of exertion in the first half is just right, no, it should be said to be perfect! Many old athletes can't reach his level. How did he do it?" Director Yu Knowing that a good speed distribution means that more energy can be saved for the final sprint, so he couldn't help but start to look forward to Zhang Guan's final sprint, because the straight line sprint is Zhang Guan's strongest point.

Sure enough, Zhang Guan started to accelerate at full speed before entering the final straight line. When he rushed into the final straight line, his speed had already increased to an extremely high level.

At this time, Zhang Guan has already turned off the "incomplete sprint activation" skill, so his actual speed is much faster than other athletes at this stage.

"What's the situation! Did he run 400 meters or 200 meters? How come he was so fast in the end!" Director Yu blinked, making sure he read it right, and then almost sat on the ground in fright.

"It's impossible! No one can sprint with such strength after running 300 meters! Zhang Guan's current speed is about the same as that of some provincial team 200-meter athletes. Why is this happening? How did he do it? Is he still a human being? Being able to make such a speed shows that he still has plenty of physical strength. How is this possible? Is it possible that the previous consumption is less? But he is not too slow in the front! Could it be because of the good distribution of speed? The reason, is that why you have more physical strength to make the final sprint?" Instructing Yu, he found that Zhang Guan had done another thing that he couldn't think about.

"In the 400-meter sprint, the distribution of speed and physical strength is the most difficult. Zhang Guan seems to be almost perfect at this point; as for other techniques, it is still too bad! Especially the adjustment between the curve and the till, this is the most difficult. He doesn't know the basic skills!" Director Yu suddenly felt a little depressed, Zhang Guan was slow to master the special skills that others could easily learn; the speed and energy distribution that others took a lot of effort to master were easy for Zhang Guan .

"Could it be talent again?" Director Yu muttered to himself.

At this time, Zhang Guan seemed to be about to start running again.

Director Yu suddenly remembered Zhang Guan's poor technique when he turned the curve into the straight, and finally couldn't help it. He walked out from the darkness and shouted at the same time: "Stop, stop, that's not how you run when you enter the straight!"
