The sound of jogging footsteps rustled in the light golden morning light, and the gentle breeze flowed through the hair and fingertips with the progress of the footsteps, as if one could feel the veins of nature, and then slowly and carefully feel it
Beating with the heart of the earth, it erupts and releases together.
Then--
Whoosh whoosh!
Whoosh whoosh!
Switch from jogging to accelerating running mode, and instantly enter the 100-meter sprint stage. The powerful kicking action ignites all the strength of the calf muscles, and the strong wind stalks the ears, as if chasing the speed of the wind, sprinting at full speed with lightning speed, speed and power.
It stirred up turbulent waves.
Boom boom boom!
The sound of bursting muscles is like thunder rolling back and forth on the eardrums. The collision of the soles of the feet with the ground, the friction of the muscles with the air, one can deeply feel that the vitality of nature is slowly recovering, even the sunshine and the shade of the trees.
Cheering and shouting, the light and shadow suddenly came alive.
Sprint! Sprint again!
Then--
Slow down and return to the stage of running at a constant speed. Slowing down does not mean stopping, but it means constantly adjusting the breathing rhythm while jogging at a constant speed.
Variable speed running is Gao Wen's first warm-up exercise after getting up every morning. This is how he kicks off a new day of training.
Professional tennis is open year-round, and the schedule is scheduled from January to November. The only time for rest and adjustment is the winter training window in December.
Logically speaking, June is the time when Wimbledon is held, and July turns into the hustle and bustle of the North American tennis season. Summer, when the grass grows and birds fly, is the busiest and most exciting time for outdoor sports, which makes it even more exciting.
There is no time for proper system training.
But the situation with the NCAA is different.
After the U.S. Championship and final exams, college students ushered in the summer vacation, but the players who were preparing to enter the professional tour to be baptized could not rest. They needed to adjust well, start over, and then plunge into the hustle and bustle of the North American season.
.
Gao Wen is undergoing systematic training.
After practicing throughout the spring season, you can discover your many shortcomings.
Physical fitness is one of them.
Gao Wen has always been very confident in his physical fitness. In the Bruins team, in terms of pure physical fitness, Geelong and McDonald are not as good as Gao Wen. From the attribute panel, physical fitness is also in the upper circle, but after actual combat
Only then did I realize the problem.
The so-called excellence is a relative value rather than an absolute value.
Maybe it's one of the best in the NCAA, but it doesn't look good enough in professional competitions.
Therefore, in the final stage of the singles final, Gao Wen could clearly feel the knock-on impact of the decline in physical strength. He exerted all his strength in the last two games because he knew that he was weak in the follow-up, and the variables entering the final set would inevitably increase. He needed to come up with more
A good performance ends the match within two sets.
Of course, Gao Wen did it, but at the same time, it also made Gao Wen put away his pride and re-examine the gap between himself and professional players——
This is true even in the NCAA, and the intensity of professional competitions is even more intense.
Although there are a series of objective reasons for the Athens game, after considering the professional competition, those objective reasons are no longer important, and it becomes natural to continue to improve one's own strength.
Changing speed running is a basic training.
A jogging warm-up journey of about four kilometers, with sprints of 100 meters or 50 meters every once in a while, and then resume running at a constant speed. Sometimes the interval between sprints is shortened, and sometimes the interval is
Stretch it longer to disrupt your running rhythm as much as possible.
Referring to marathon training, it is actually relatively easy to run at a constant speed, but acceleration and speed maintenance after breaking the rhythm are the most difficult.
The same is true for tennis matches. Sudden acceleration and sudden sprinting are both difficult problems. In addition, compared with lateral movement, the initiation and acceleration of vertical movement are also difficult. Changes in the sense of rhythm and direction may cause interference. Perhaps the impact can be analyzed from a time perspective and
Not big, but tennis itself is an ever-changing sport, and even the slightest difference may bring different results. The training of natural vertical running cannot be ignored.
Moreover, there are no shortcuts to these trainings. Qualitative breakthroughs must be sought through down-to-earth daily accumulation.
Sprint! Sprint again!
Gawain released all his energy in an instant, reached the ultimate speed, and then rushed towards the finish line. After entering the training ground, he slowed down and turned into a slow walk, adjusting his breathing, adjusting his rhythm, and adjusting his state.
From a distance, you can see several figures warming up on the training ground. They are several familiar figures such as MacDonald, Gillon and Thompson.
All of this was arranged by Tobias.
This summer, in addition to Gao Wen, Thompson, Gillon and MacDonald are also preparing to participate in the challenge to polish themselves, but the purpose is slightly different.
Thompson is truly preparing to turn professional, which means his career has officially started.
Geelong won a wild card for the Masters by virtue of being runner-up in the US Championship singles. Although it is one level lower than the Grand Slam, it is already the highest level competition on the tour. He also needs to start thinking about whether he will switch to the Masters.
Make judgments about entering a profession.
MacDonald is relatively relaxed. He just hopes to enter the challenge to polish himself and prepare for the autumn season that kicks off in September.
No matter what, they all need to conduct a short-term training camp to prepare for the challenge, and also wait for the official start of the North American season. So with the help of Tobias, all four friends gathered together and became each other's friends.
Training partners and batting partners, train together.
It will take about three weeks, and then the North American season will start.
The location is right at the University of California, Los Angeles. Top players including Sharapova and Venus Williams have chosen this place for winter training because the entire supporting facilities are very complete.
Coach, Tobias successfully persuaded Coach Martin and Assistant Coach Grant to come and help——
Including Thompson, who is ready to officially turn professional, they currently do not have enough capital to hire a coach. They have to rely on themselves to participate in early competitions. Only after achieving certain results in the challenge and receiving bonuses can they hire professional coaches.
But the training cannot lack the guidance of the coach, so Tobias found Martin and Grant as a little extra money during the summer vacation.
Of course, all of these require payment of remuneration. Surprisingly, Tobias pays them all out of his own pocket. The small details can show Tobias's sincerity and he is fulfilling his promise step by step.
call……
call……
Gao Wen was adjusting his breathing and approached the training ground. From far away, he could hear Thompson's loud voice laughing wildly. It seemed that there was no difference from the winter training period before the United States Championship. Nothing had changed.
