Xinhua, Taiyuan, June 11 (Reporter Hu Jian) Since officially becoming an Olympic event in 2000, the Chinese Taekwondo team has won the championship in the 5 Olympics in 20 years. How to maintain 20 in the world's strong taekwondo In the old age, the reporter tried to find the answer from Guan Jianmin, chairman of the Chinese Taekwondo Association.
From Sydney to Rio, the 5th Olympic Games, 5 Olympic champions, 7 gold medals, the Chinese Taekwondo team achieved a gold medal relay.
In 2000, Chen Zhong kicked the first Taekwondo gold medal in China, and successfully defended his title four years later. In the same year, Luo Wei won the women's 67 kg competition. By the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Wu Jingyu won the women's 49kg championship and defended his title in London 4 years later.
Zhao Shuai won the men’s 58kg championship in Rio de Janeiro and achieved a breakthrough in the Chinese men’s taekwondo Olympic gold medal. In the same year, Zheng Shuyin's women's gold medal made her leap to become the leader of the women's taekwondo in the world today.
Each session has a gold medal, which, in Guan Jianmin's view, benefits from this united and progressive team. "Behind each event, in fact, the most painful and difficult thing is sparring. Men's sparring in women's events and large-scale sparring in men's events. Only by increasing the number of training and competitions can we change the quality of sports and achieve quantitative to qualitative changes."
In fact, the Chinese Taekwondo team also has a "secret weapon", that is, a pressure training device. Its principle is that by pressurizing, the blood circulation is moderately controlled, thereby improving muscle explosiveness and acid resistance.
"After wearing it under pressure, the difficulty of training will increase, as if it is pinched tightly on the wrist, it will be particularly sore. After a training session, you will obviously feel that the training quality has improved and acid resistance has been increased. "Chinese female Taekwondo athlete Zheng Shuyin said.
Guan Jianmin, the head coach of the Chinese Taekwondo team, said that compression training is a specific measure of the Taekwondo team’s technological assistance. Through the use of these years, the effect is still very significant. It can help athletes to recover from injuries while increasing Growth hormone to achieve the best competitive state.
For example, Guan Jianmin said, "One year the national team played in Mexico on a plateau of 2430 meters. Most athletes in the country are absorbing oxygen, but the Chinese team did not, and they won the championship. This is inseparable from the pressurized training. ."
As of now, the Chinese National Taekwondo Team has received 5 tickets for the Tokyo Olympics, and 4 women's events have reached full quota. In addition to Zhao Shuai, the Chinese team is still expected to compete for two men's places. (Finish)
