London Bowl Scene.

The men's 110-meter hurdles have entered the final championship battle. Richardson Robles has obviously lost the possibility of competing for the gold medal.

Especially Robles...

He even suddenly pulled his thighs and iliopsoas muscles while running on the way, and continued to move forward with a painful middle finger.

In this moment.

He has become a useless person in the Cuba Athletic Association. The treatment and identity he gives him will disappear after this Olympics.

Don’t think that small countries are easy to talk about friendship.

In fact, small countries are often more careful in their budgets and more profit-oriented because of their weak foundation.

Robles was injured. If it were before, it would have been a big event. However, because Robles ran too little this year and Merritt's emergence, his attention has been greatly reduced.

In this way, even if he quit the game in pain.

Not many people kept their eyes on him for more than a second.

Competitive sports are so cruel.

Everyone's eyes are now focused on the front.

Liu Xiang vs Merritt.

This is also the scene that was considered the most likely to happen before the game. Now that it finally appears, the two of them seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and they would not have been surprised to meet.

Compared with Merritt, Liu Xiang's running method was to suppress the speed ahead. In other words, although Liu Xiang had already reached the first place in the four fronts, he did not explode all his strength.

It was entirely because his starting reaction was above everyone, and with the seven steps on the bar, he had become a master, and naturally he took the lead.

But Liu Xiang did not completely release himself.

In this game, the tactic he set for himself was not to explode in the fourth bar. With his ability, the fourth bar burst out with his own speed, which is not uncommon in his career.

But he chose to suppress it here.

The primary purpose is of course to reduce the burden on your Achilles tendon and ankle. Even if you get a closed injection, it will only relieve the pain and suppress the pain. However, the injury in your body is still there and will not recover because the pain disappears.

So Liu Xiang decided to suppress the rhythm in the first four railings.

Don't burst out with all your might.

This not only reduces the Achilles tendon of your ankle, consumes it in advance, but also...

After facing Merritt catching up, he can have enough physical fitness to adjust.

Not passive.

Since the semi-finals, Liu Xiang has never underestimated Merritt again. He even believed when he came out of the final...

Merritt will definitely catch up.

There will definitely be no surprises.

If you hit the bar in the semi-finals, you can run to within 12.95. How is it possible? You won’t perform better in the finals.

The main reason why he has to run so fast in the semi-finals is...

He is still sure to run faster in the finals.

Otherwise, any athlete will do this.

They will be criticized by the coach.

Merritt is here, and he enters the extreme speed in the fourth bar. Generally speaking, he is used to starting to move his body to the extreme speed in the fourth bar this year.

Although you just took a bar in advance, it is difficult for you to complete this without the physical fitness and strong ability to maintain speed. Because on the extreme speed output of an athlete, the spacing of a bar is close to 10 meters.

10 meters you want to maintain an extra speed segment.

How difficult is it? I'm afraid there is no need to explain it.

Even if you have a short span, the extreme speed cannot be fully expanded, and it will not be as exaggerated as a 100-meter sprint, but you want to maintain an extra 10-meter sprint...

Based on these, Liu Xiang's gun dropped the fourth column and broke out, and he suppressed one more column before he released it.

Compared with Merritt Liu Xiang, he used the time to support his legs until he left the ground. The development level of his body in recent years has been much higher than before. After this wave, the support ability is naturally different from that in the past.

Liu Xiang's 110-meter hurdle athlete has the advantage of starting acceleration and running three steps between the rails, but in the hurdles, there are weak links such as large angles, long distances in the lower rails, and long time to get out. This is also Liu Xiang's previous weakness, but in recent years, he has gradually overcome a lot.

For example, if the angle of the cross is large, the moment of the rear pedal is adjusted.

Use a stronger rear pedal to solve the problem of excessive cross angles.

The first column that spans also has this factor.

It made him so smoothly with the eight changes and seventh.

So, what should I do if I want to be faster?

...

"Liu Your crossing time is significantly different from that of foreign athletes. The main reason is that your hurdle steps are obviously longer, and the specific manifestation is that the distance in the lower rail is long. If this problem is not solved, you are getting older and weaker and weaker than ever before. If you want to return to your previous level, you can only be in a dream."

...

Ralph Mann did raise this question.

This is also the problem of Liu Xiang running on the whole way, or the original Chinese athletes running on the way, the unification of the run on the way.

Because the hurdle step is obviously longer, the distance between the lower bar will also become longer.

So how to do it?

Start from far away and land near.

This is the six-character policy summarized by Ralph Mann. It was changed to Chinese, and Su Shen personally participated in the translation. This allowed Liu Xiang to understand Ralph Mann's intention and professional translation ability more clearly. In fact, it has always been a shortcoming in our country, which has affected the improvement of athletes. Because the inability to accurately translate the coach's ideas will lead to errors in the transmission.

The more athletes practice, the more they become, the more wrong they are.

The last step is wrong, which is very different from the original meaning of European and American coaches.

Attack the bar.

Swivel your legs and continue to fold your calves forward and upward.

Folding the swing legs and swinging forward and upward.

This way.

The swing radius is naturally shortened.

If the swing radius is shortened, the corresponding swing speed of the legs will also increase.

This can be in line with the characteristics of Ralph Mann's "far from afar".

Make the starting movement of the entire attack bar more natural and smooth.

And this is not finished. When the cross-attack bar action is finished, the three joints of the hip, knee and ankle that are cross-legged should be kept straight, and the head, torso and cross-legged basically form a straight line.

This is to make the body land faster.

It won't be like before, landing too far away and wasting the entire running time.

and……

Liu Xiang is here, just like knowing that Merritt will come up, and the fifth column suddenly explodes.

Completely untie the entire speed.

That is, completely untie your phosphate system and enter the maximum speed.

"Is Liu going to fight Aris? He may choose the wrong method!"

"Courage must be combined with ability."

The commentator on the scene obviously thought that Liu Xiang was not a good idea to beat Merritt on the way at a very fast speed.

But when it comes to Su Shen, it is...

It's done right!

A sharp sense of smell!

It’s worthy of being Brother Xiang!

Why did Su Shen make a completely different judgment from the on-site commentator?

It's because...

This Olympics, Merritt's speed...

It's not an exaggeration.

Even Merritt's strongest 12.80s, the speed of the entire crossing is comparable to that of Liu Xiang.

Even...mostly... they are not as good as Liu Xiang.

For example, this Olympics is typical.

Although Merritt's advantage is 12.95s, his speed is not particularly exaggerated in the semi-finals or finals, especially in the finals... Su Shen remembers it very clearly that his speed in the intercolumn is 0.99s.

What is the level of this extreme speed? Take some of Liu Xiang’s own games in his previous life as an example. The slowest result was to break the thirteen seconds, that is, the magic city’s return to 12.97s after the rain and re-entered within 13 seconds. That time, Liu Xiang’s extreme speed reached 0.97s.

And it has been reached more than once.

There were three bars in one game, three times.

The final of the 2007 Osaka World Championships also reached 0.97s.

There are also Lausanne and so on.

Not to mention 0.98s, almost all the results within thirteen seconds have been turned on, and even some results without thirteen seconds have been turned on. Merritt's overall speed output stability, deducting the 12.80s shot, it is not as high as Liu Xiang's output.

Therefore, another suggestion from Su Shen gave him was-
