On the evening of August 1, Chinese men's 100-meter sprinter Su Bingtian made history in the Tokyo Olympics with an excellent performance of 9.83 seconds in the semifinals and 9.98 seconds in the final.
Among them, 9.83 seconds not only created a new Asian record, but also surpassed all white athletes.
He also became the first Chinese athlete to stand in the Olympic 100-meter final, breaking the "ethnic theory" prejudice regarding the 100-meter race.
"We are the biggest gainer of East-West sports exchanges." Su Bingtian, an associate professor at the School of Physical Education of Jinan University, said in an exclusive interview with China News Agency "East and West Questions" recently. Carrying out the policy of "going out, please come in", practicing scientific training concepts and training methods are inseparable.
On the evening of August 1, local time, in the men's 100m final of the Tokyo Olympics, Chinese athlete Su Bingtian finished sixth with a time of 9.98 seconds. As the first Chinese to enter the men's 100m final of the Olympics, he once again made history.

The summary of the interview record is as follows:
"Ethnic determinism" can stop
China News Agency reporter: What do you think of the "ethnic determinism" in track and field?
Su Bingtian: The
so-called "ethnic determinism" has been circulating for a long time, and I think it's time to break it.
Although there will be a little gap between different races, I think the problem is really not that big. These gaps can be made up with hard work day after day.
For example, in the 100-meter sprint project, there has always been a saying that "Asian people can't break 10 seconds."
In fact, I think it's not that we can't do it, it's just that our training philosophy has some problems.
But we have done it now: we ran a time of 9.83 seconds, which is the best proof of breaking the "ethnic determinism".
China News Service: When you stood on the runway of the men's 100-meter final of the Tokyo Olympics, many people felt that you took over the "relay baton" of Liu Changchun 89 years ago and completed an important leap for the Chinese, even Asians and yellow races. . What do you think of the group significance behind this leap?
Su Bingtian:
Liu Changchun set a precedent for China's sprinting to participate in the Olympics. He is like one of our biggest predecessors, giving us guidance and telling us that we can actually participate in the Olympics.
After the Tokyo Olympic Games, I once said: "I have fulfilled my dream and fulfilled the entrustment of previous generations."
Of course, after Liu Changchun, there were people who participated in the Olympics, which also laid the foundation for us.
Because of the participation of every athlete, their experience, skills, etc. will leave a "legacy" for this project.
Just as we are constantly exploring and learning advanced training concepts and training methods from abroad.
By making full use of what I learned, I achieved a score of 9.83 seconds. This is a very good model. I believe this model will leave a good "legacy" for the next batch of athletes in the future.
For us sprinters, there is a complex, I very much hope that in the future, younger athletes can continue to climb on the basis of our current results.
This time I won the sixth place in the Tokyo Olympics. I really hope they can get third, second, or even first place in the future.

Scientific training is the key to breakthrough
Reporter from China News Service: You have achieved what you have achieved today. Do you think that talent plays a greater role, or does scientific training play a greater role?
Su Bingtian:
At the moment, I think scientific training plays a greater role.
Because the talents of athletes who have reached the national level like me may have been defined early, but how to re-explore their potential in the future may have to rely on a series of factors such as international integration, technological assistance, and medical security.
The so-called scientific training concept refers to the training concept that conforms to the development law of special athletic ability, the change law of human physiological function state and the individual characteristics of athletes.
Scientific training pays attention to quality. Our previous training method was to practice hard, practice more, and constantly increase the intensity of special training, as if only in this way would we feel at ease.
Later, we realized that it is not necessary to practice more to run fast. Scientific training emphasizes the use of skills in the training process, requiring technical movements to be in place, not necessarily running too much, so that athletes can retain more physical strength during training. The body can also recover faster.
China News Agency reporter: Can you tell us about your own experience, such as your experience in receiving foreign coaches or overseas training?
Su Bingtian:
Some of their latest concepts are the most impressive.
When I first went abroad, the foreign coach asked me to do some technical moves. I found it strange. I felt that I would not run fast or move like this.
But after so many years of understanding, they found out that they were right.
In fact, there are some things that I really need to understand and experience by myself, but I was not so high at that time, and later I gradually gained a deeper understanding of running, and realized why I used to start very fast but couldn't do it in the backcourt.
The 100-meter race does not rush to the top in one breath. It must have a rhythm distribution during the run, and must learn how to give full play to its advantages in this process.
Therefore, at the end of 2014, I chose to change my starting method and gained a new rhythm.
Randy Huntington is a typical "scientific research coach."
In November 2017, at the beginning of the cooperation with Coach Randy, the first thing he did was to conduct a comprehensive diagnosis and analysis of my physical and technical conditions with reference to the "championship model", combined with my physical and technical problems, A targeted training program has been developed.
After more than a year of targeted training, I have made significant progress in technical parameters and physical fitness, which is also the key to my breakthrough.
In daily training, Randy will determine the athlete’s load measurement of speed, endurance, explosive power, strength, coordination and technical training on the basis of the pre-training evaluation results and the athlete’s subjective feeling survey results, so as to ensure that the athlete avoids injury and excess Train and get the best training benefits.
In the special quality training, he will also conduct comprehensive monitoring through a variety of scientific research equipment to ensure the optimization of training load measurement and exercise technology.
On August 8, the closing ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics was held at the New National Arena in Tokyo, Japan.

"Go out, please come in" to promote the progress of China's track and field
China News Agency reporter: What is the secret of the great progress made in China's track and field events as a whole, including sprinting?
Su Bingtian:
I think the biggest turning point of China's track and field progress over the years should be 2015 and 2016.
Under the framework of the "1516" plan implemented by China's track and field, it actively chooses to take the path of internationalization and strengthens the exchange and integration of track and field events with the world through the "go out and invite in" approach.
On the one hand, key athletes in key events are arranged to participate in more international competitions to accumulate experience in the competition. On the other hand, high-level foreign coaches and their teams are hired to introduce advanced training concepts to help improve the performance of key events.
In addition, the Track and Field Sports Management Center is also actively expanding the training resources of a strong country in track and field, sending outstanding domestic athletes to foreign high-level clubs, and improving the level of competition by learning more advanced training concepts and training methods.
At the same time, increase the introduction of scientific research support and training equipment, and help improve the performance of sprint projects through the introduction of intellectual capital, advanced training concepts and experience, and hardware equipment.
The mindset of "open the door for sports" and the courage to reform and adapt is an important manifestation of the confidence of China's competitive sports in the new era, and it is also an important condition for China's track and field performance to increase significantly.
The implementation of "Go out, please come in" has brought great gains to Chinese sprinters including myself, Xie Zhenye, Mo Youxue, and Wu Zhiqiang.
After the 2012 London Olympics, Chinese sprinting showed a scene of blooming flowers. A group of new and old trapeze players continued to improve their personal best results and contributed to today's big breakthrough.

Looking forward to the next "Su Bingtian"
China News Agency reporter: Do you think there will be the next Su Bingtian in Chinese track and field?
Su Bingtian:
Well, it will appear 100%.
Because of what I can do, I believe that someone will be able to do it in the future. As for whether I can do better or surpass it, I am looking forward to it.
All records are used to break. I am not a god. It is impossible for me to do it and others cannot do it. Only if there is surpassing, there will be progress.
For me personally, I did it because I told people across the country "I, Su Bingtian, did what you thought was impossible at the time."
Through hard work, we still have room for improvement in the future.
China News Agency reporter: What role do you think sports plays in the exchanges between China and the West?
Su Bingtian:
I think we are the biggest gainers.
Western sports technology and concepts have brought us great help.
From the current point of view, in fact, our entire team training has begun to be scientific, and our gains in this process are the greatest.
Including before the Tokyo Olympics, we also invited an American biomechanics expert to help us do running tests. He quickly analyzed the shortcomings of all of us from the training videos.
I think they have done a very good job in this regard.
