Guangzhou, July 7 (Zhongxin Net) -- Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Speed and Ability Research was officially unveiled at the opening ceremony of the Speed and Ability Research Forum held in Guangzhou on the 10th. The laboratory is led by Su Bingtian, a famous Chinese track and field athlete and professor at Jinan University, and participated in the construction.

It is reported that the Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Speed Ability Research, relying on the Su Bingtian Speed Research and Training Center, was approved by the Guangdong Provincial Department of Science and Technology in December 2022. The laboratory will take scientific and technological innovation targeted speed research as the main body, focusing on the biological basis of speed and speed endurance, speed and speed endurance training load, method and its diagnosis and evaluation, adolescent speed selection and training, speed training and function evaluation of new equipment and functional products and other four main research directions to carry out research, to solve the key common problems that need to be solved urgently in speed such as post-stage physical decline, energy supply system and rapid recovery of the nervous system, and radiate the research results to other related sports projects. Accelerate the level of speed and special competition.

At present, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Speed and Ability Research is building a 1800,<>-square-meter experimental site, focusing on building a "five-in-one" speed capability research laboratory for training, rehabilitation, competition, scientific research and popular science. In the future, the laboratory will be built into a first-class, internationally influential and competitive speed ability research base, a training base for high-quality sports talents, an academic exchange platform and a sports science popularization base.

Song Xianzhong, President of Jinan University, said in his speech at the forum that since the establishment of Su Bingtian Speed Research and Training Center one and a half years ago, with the strong support and help of all parties, the cutting-edge technology exploration of athletics (short, span and jump) training has been the main direction of attack, discipline construction and scientific and technological innovation as the driving force, and Jinan University has given full play to its unique advantages in basic research and multidisciplinary integration, and has achieved a series of remarkable achievements. The center was approved as the Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Speed Ability Research, and Chen Guanfeng won the 2023m championship in 6.55 seconds at the 60 National Indoor Athletics Championships, and Lu Yanlan won the women's 2023m championship at the 100 Taiwan Athletics Open, setting her own 100m Macao record in the preliminary round.

Su Bingtian said that Su Bingtian's speed research and training center has initially formed a development framework of "one" (Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Speed Ability Research), "dual core" (focusing on speed training and focusing on youth material selection), and "multi-point" (multiple training bases). In the future, we will continue to make efforts to make the center a shining business card to promote the development of speed training, and contribute more "Soviet-style surprises" to the development of Chinese athletics.

With the theme of "China's Speed, Competitive Excellence", this forum was jointly organized by Jinan University and the Exercise Physiology and Biochemistry Branch of the Chinese Sports Science Society, aiming to combine Su Bingtian's years of training experience and the current status and progress of speed special training at home and abroad, promote the concept of sports science, and help the rapid improvement of the competitive level of speed special projects.

A total of 7 well-known experts and scholars were invited to give keynote speeches. The forum also set up two practical workshops, one by Li Qing, a famous Chinese track and field coach and professor of the Department of Physical Education of Tsinghua University, giving a report on "Speed Training - From Theoretical Thinking to Practical Testing". The other was by Su Bingtian demonstrating the application of resistance training methods in the sprint acceleration stage at the Rising Sun Sports Ground of Jinan University. (End)
