"Coach, if I learn this, I can beat Su." Bolt said from below.
"Don't worry, it can definitely be done." Mills said with a smile: "In fact, it won't be just Su by then, many people will be no match for you. Although your phone call that day disturbed my dream, it was indeed
It gave me a heads up."
"Usain, your talent for the future is one of the strongest I have ever seen, but for the future... can you also break the shackles of a high center of gravity and a slow future? I have been thinking about this question these days, and then
Based on some of Su's running videos, I discovered the solution to this problem." Mills said to Bolt and Blake below: "This technology may be the breakthrough point in solving this century's problem. Train hard and strive for it.
After the whole winter training, let the whole world see your strength."
"Coach, I don't think so much now, I just want to kill Su first and take away his first drop of blood." Bolt said, looking at the words, he really regarded Su Shen as a "frenemy".
Often compared to friends and opponents, this state is the rarest and most rare.
Most impressive.
"Haha, Usain, it seems like you really care about Dongfang Su." Mills smiled.
"He is the Keith Spence of my age so far." Bolt said: "When facing an opponent that I cannot solve with my direct talent, I usually become serious."
"And now Su is obviously such an opponent."
"Since pure talent can't solve it, let's do a special training. So when will it start? I can't wait." Bolt took the initiative to request special training. This kind of thing is rare, Mills said.
We know that Bolt's mentality also has weaknesses, and that is - lack of self-discipline (not lack of effort).
Moreover, his ambition needs to be stimulated, otherwise he will easily lose his goal and fighting spirit.
But when he ignites his goal and fighting spirit, he will be more serious than ever and make rapid progress.
This guy seems to have energy that can't be drained out.
Every time he thought it was over, he would give himself a new surprise.
So.
Hopefully this time it will be the same.
"Coach, don't listen to Usain's nonsense." Blake suddenly interrupted and said: "Every time he lost to Su, he would roll around in the quilt until midnight before he could fall asleep. He didn't imagine it.
What about Danding?"
"Oh, damn, what the hell is this? Why can't I still win?! I have to show some real skills next time!" Blake scholar Bolt said a few words, making the latter look angry.
I almost turned red, but fortunately I was a black man, so it wasn't obvious. I just yelled: "It's nothing! Youhan, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"Okay, as long as you don't disturb my sleep at night." Blake rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not an adult yet, and I still need sleep to grow healthy. I'm different from you."
Seeing that Bolt was about to get angry again, Mills smiled and shook his head, interrupting the bickering between his two disciples: "It doesn't matter, Usain, whether you really said that or just talking in your sleep, it's... a good thing.
It shows that your ambition has been mobilized by Su. I once had sleepless nights because I had an opponent I couldn't defeat, but this is not necessarily a bad thing."
"Train well and try to defeat him next time we meet. That will be enough."
"Just like when you defeated Keith Spence before."
"By the way, I have been going to less quads recently. The training intensity may be higher than usual to save some physical energy."
"The Quad" is Bolt's favorite Jamaican bar. It is magnificent, rich and luxurious, with 4 floors, and you still need to queue up and make a reservation to enter. Of course, Bolt doesn't need to queue up and make a reservation now, he is not a big guy.
Celebrities coming here will only increase the popularity and exposure of the bar.
"Don't worry, sir, I will definitely control myself and not go." After Bolt finished speaking, he touched his head again, said cruelly, and added: "No, I won't even know how to do it until I defeat Su.
went!"
"Yes, then remember your words and have a good winter training." Mills smiled and said: "Put all your energy on the training field, and then let the world see how lightning is made.
"
…
Kingston.
In another bar with the same name as the "Quad" bar, the name is "asylum". Mills prefers this bar to Qiancheng. Here he made an appointment to meet an old friend.
Not long after, someone walked up to Mills. If Bolt were here, this person would definitely have his teeth "trembling."
This man is the "devil coach" that Bolt fears most in his life, Fitz Coleman.
Fitz Coleman's coaching resume is no worse than Mills's, at least for now. He has coached 110-meter runner Richard Buckner in 1992, Horton, the 1996 Olympic bronze medalist, etc. He is also a Ph.D.
Walter's initial career path, becoming the most serious national head coach.
It was in his hands that Bolt claimed to be "sleepless at night" and "in agony."
Later, Bolt said that he couldn't stand this kind of "devil training" and turned to Mills because of him.
Of course, when Bolt first said he wanted to follow Mills, Mills didn't say a word to him and turned around and left. (Really)
"It's not easy for Usain to be so proactive. He is the one who is most opposed to high-intensity training." As if remembering something from the past, Coleman took a sip of malt wine and said, "How are you doing lately?
Do you really plan to let him take the straight track project?"
"Yes, Fitz. I think Usain no longer needs to consider the 400 meters. The 100 meters is more suitable for him." Mills said: "And he himself is very resistant to this, plus his Achilles tendon was seriously injured.
, is not suitable for long-term losses. In this regard, I think 100 meters is more suitable. If there is no accident in the future, 100 meters and 200 meters will be used as the main projects instead of 200 meters and 400 meters."
"Have you given up on the 400 meters? But now he is an OW medalist and has the qualifications." Coleman thought of something and said: "There is no problem with his scoliosis. I didn't expect this back then.
Given the situation, his own physical judgment was correct."
"I have led the team to find a way to better adapt to his body structure to arrange training, massage, and relaxation." Mills was able to solve this problem, and even Coleman had to admire it. This kind of problem obviously requires
A large amount of customization and special research can only be solved. Facts have proved that Mills is much more professional than himself in this aspect.
"Can you tell me how you do it?" Coleman asked.
"Unbalanced stride running method." Mills said: "Because the sides of the crest are bulging, his leg lengths are slightly different, and then we researched and found that Usain's legs exceeded 10% of the data. Under normal circumstances, top runners
The difference mostly fluctuates within 7%, but it exceeds 3%.”
"So you didn't correct the balance of his legs when stepping? Instead, you continued to let it go?"
"It can't be said that it is laissez-faire. I think it would be better to just adjust it to suit his physiological structure. The human body is inherently different. Especially for top athletes, it is best to be more suitable for you. The standard answer is, sometimes
It only applies to ordinary people, not super geniuses."
"I understand." Coleman drank half of the bottle before stopping: "I am convinced on this point. I didn't expect that so many years of professional experience would actually harm me and solidify my own thinking mode.
, it’s really…”
"I can't say that. I can only say that Usain is more special, so some of your methods are not suitable for him."
"Okay, old man, let's get down to business." Mills said: "According to the previous agreement, if Usain can win 3 medals in a row at the OW level, you will apologize to him and admit your mistakes.
This child has always had a knot in his heart, and it would be better to untie it himself. Now is the right time, and he also needs the encouragement of you, the first master."
"Are you going to make major technical changes?" Coleman quickly noticed something and asked: "You don't want to create a monster comparable to Asafa Powell, do you?"
"In that case, Stephen Francis, an old guy, probably won't be able to coax him."
"Haha, yes, I even agree that Stephen Francis has not unleashed Asafa's full potential. He pays too much attention to the details of running and completely ignores the psychological construction. To be honest, this is not something that one person can do.
In the era of super athletes, it takes the entire team to operate in order to achieve good results. Just telling Asafa to be a man and stop being like a pussy is of no use at all."
"There is no way. When it comes to scientific development in Jamaica, who can compare with your 'Running Track Club'?" Coleman took another big sip: "It seems that you are ahead of all of us this time.
, I hope you can succeed and create an Asafa Powell without psychological problems, and the championship will not be taken away by Americans."
"Don't worry, let's go. I think Usain is the opportunity." After Mills finished speaking, there was a soft snoring next to him.
Mills:…
"Fitz, if you want to play the trick of being drunk, that's fine. I'll order a few more expensive bottles of wine now, and they will all be charged to your account. The waiter will come to me..." He hasn't said anything yet.
After finishing, Coleman, who had been snoring just now, suddenly woke up and said with a smile: "I am just old and get sleepy easily. You can't cheat me. My salary is not enough for me to hand over."
I can't live without buying such expensive wine."
"Shall we leave now?" Mills asked with a smile.
"Okay, just go, but the account must be recorded on your head."
"No problem." After Mills said that, he snapped his fingers, paid the bill, and walked towards Bolt's address with Fitz Coleman.
…
At the same time, Su Shen also received an official invitation letter.
