"Ye Qin, you just ran too fast in the first half of the journey and had no rhythm at all. You would be out of energy when you were 300 meters."

On June 8, in the Icahn Stadium in New York, USA, Randy Huntel frowned and looked at Ye Qin who had just finished running a group of 400 meters, and said with a serious expression.

"Hu...huh..." Ye Qin supported his waist with his hands, stood on the track on the side, gasping heavily. After a while, he seemed to have a little smoother breathing, and then replied, "Coach, I want to try it. I am as fast as possible in the first half of the journey. At about the stage where I will experience a significant decline in speed."

"I know you want to let go of the first half of the rhythm you are used to, but Ye Qin, this does not mean that you completely lose the rhythm. This won't work." Randy Huntel seemed to frown slightly. After the Eugene station competition a few days ago, the master and apprentice had already communicated about this aspect, and were making adjustments to Ye Qin's 400-meter event.

After a moment of pause, he continued, "Not to mention 400 meters, it is 100 meters. You know that in addition to starting and accelerating, running at the highest speed is only 100 meters short. What you need is to allocate your speed reasonably. Ye Qin, your speed ability is not weak, but your physical fitness is not enough to support it. You should appropriately allocate the physical energy and speed in the first half of the journey more reasonably, so that you can ensure that you have more impact when sprinting."

"It's still difficult to get this point stuck."

Ye Qin nodded and recalled the 400 meters he had just run. It felt that it was not that simple, but he still encountered great difficulties.

Unlike the sprint event of one or two hundred meters, after the gunfire sounds, the 400 meters event cannot be fully running at the highest speed. If one or two hundred meters, you can only add up your own speed and then rush to the finish line.

For the 400-meter project, there are more things to consider.

The distribution of physical fitness and speed is a crucial link.

Even the top players need to properly control the rhythm in the first half in order to ensure their physical fitness and speed in the middle and second half.

Of course, it is not to say that you cannot rush to run, but this way of running is just one hundred meters. Basically, the body's lactic acid is accumulated and the physical energy is consumed too much, so you may not be able to run at all later.

This is true for ordinary people. The top 400-meter athletes in their profession still cannot escape this rule.

However, compared with ordinary people, professional 400-meter athletes have better physical fitness, abundant physical fitness, and strong muscle tolerance. Even if they sprint at full speed at the beginning, the results they have achieved are still understandable.

But when all the players are at the same level and there is not such a big gap in power between them, reasonable running skills are very important for athletes.

After testing at Baylor University for 400 meters, Michael Johnson suggested to Ye Qin that he could try to let go of the previous rhythm and run. Ye Qin made such an attempt at Eugene Station, and the effect was very significant.

But it was very difficult to run. The last fifty-meter sprint almost squeezed out all his strength and fell down after running. During the period after crossing the finish line, he almost couldn't stand.

"This takes time, we can't rush it. You are now a professional athlete's growth stage. Any technical adjustments now will affect the success or failure of your entire career in the future."

Randy Huntel had a cold face, and he was also considering the issues that Ye Qin said.

Arriving at Baylor University in the United States early, Randy Huntel was to communicate with Clyde Hart. The result was obvious that changing the rhythm was the best way.

Randy Huntel has no shortage of basic ability training and special ability training. He just has not really guided the men's 400-meter program. He can't figure out some places, so he still needs to find someone to give him some advice.

Ye Qin's previous running style can no longer support his gradually improving level. If he runs as before, Ye Qin will have obvious advantages in the middle and second half of the run, and it will not even be too hard after running, but obviously, there is still a large part of the potential that has not been fully tapped.

But changing the pace is not something that can happen overnight.

Ye Qin controlled the rhythm in the first half, and started to accelerate at 250 meters, and then sprinted at the last fifty meters. This series of running methods is a style that has been continuously trained and strengthened for two or three years.

Over the past few years, Ye Qin himself doesn't remember how many 400 meters he ran. But when his starting acceleration and speed ability were not yet sufficient, this way of running allowed him to walk far in the 400-meter race.

Now it suddenly needs to be broken, and the problem that needs to be faced the most is actually habit.

It is easy to do this kind of trip or two, one or two hundred meters ahead to run a little faster. The key is precision, how to most accurately allocate the speed and physical fitness of the first half, and then when he maintains until the middle and second half, he still has enough physical energy to sprint.

Like the game in Eugene Station, Ye Qin could feel that it was his extraordinary performance, not his extraordinary performance throughout the whole process, but his extraordinary performance in the last fifty meters.

The last fifty meters of the situation where he could hardly run was a situation that he had only encountered when he started running 400 meters. If it weren't for the long-term super-distance speed training, if he had changed his person, even if he had strong willpower, he wouldn't be able to rush.

"Then coach, the New York station race really doesn't run 400 meters?"

The original plan was that Ye Qin was going to participate in the men's 200m and men's 400m competition at the New York Station. However, after the results of Eugene Station came out, Randy Huntel gave up the 400m competition at the New York Station.

To be honest, Ye Qin felt a little regretful.

He actually felt a little strange inside. He was trained under Randy Huntel. I don’t know if it was because of the other party’s coaching style or because he grew older, and a lot of what he had learned had settled for a certain period of time, and he had already had some of his own ideas.

Especially this 400-meter adjustment, he felt that he should run more 400-meter races at this time and adjust his rhythm through the competition. After all, in China, he cannot meet such a high-level opponent, and it is rare to have an opportunity.

Randy Huntel obviously saw Ye Qin's idea, shook his head slightly, and explained: "Your rhythm is a bit messy now. We need to study for a while to determine your more integrated speed allocation. You can just participate in 200 meters in this New York stop."

As he said that, Randy Huntle paused and then said, "This is also more beneficial to your future development. You just won the 400m championship at Eugene Station. If you suddenly run eighth in the second stop, it will not be good for you to give others the future. Moreover, you have not run well this year. You have done your best to run your own good results in the 200m race. You will soon make the American track and field industry not ignore you."

As an American, Randy Huntel, to some extent, still cares about American Tiantan’s views on him leading an Asian player.

In selfishness, he just won the Eugene Grand Prix championship, and he even hoped that Ye Qin would stop and leave the United States directly.

In this regard, Randy Huntel is a bit similar to many domestic coaches and athletes at this time. After a particularly good result was suddenly achieved in a certain game, he hurriedly started to rest and adjust, just because he was afraid that the back would be broken, and there would be no sensational effect of running out of good results.
