(Reporters Wu Shuguang, Liu Yang, and Wang Haoyu) A "good man" three gangs. Especially in the field of sports, team combat is particularly necessary. In the ongoing Tokyo Olympics, every athlete is not fighting alone, and everyone's achievements, achievements and successes are inseparable from the efforts of the team.
On August 1, "Flyer" Su Bingtian became the first Chinese to reach the Olympic 100-meter final, breaking the Asian record with 9.83 seconds and running 9.98 seconds in the final, ranking sixth, creating a new history in Chinese athletics.
Just a few days ago, Su Bingtian posted a "graduation photo" of 9 people on Weibo, including foreign teacher Randy Huntington, cheering for the upcoming Olympic athletics competition. Obviously, this "squad" is the people behind Su Bingtian's record.

Su Bingtian, 32, also said in a post-match interview that he would like to thank my small team. It is reported that the team not only has head coaches, teaching assistants, physiotherapists, physicalists, nutritionists, scientific researchers, and even biomechanics experts, etc., which is a "composite team" without compromise.
In fact, there is a team behind every athlete, and some are more concerned because they are foreign teachers. For example, at the beginning of the Olympic Games, the Chinese fencing team ushered in a milestone moment, Sun Yiwen won the women's individual epee final in the "decisive sword", and won the first women's heavy individual gold medal in the history of the Chinese fencing Olympics.
Along with Sun Yiwen, French coach Yuge Oberley, who excitedly carried his beloved on his shoulders and ran around the field to celebrate this historic moment. Oberley came to China in 2016 to coach, last year due to the epidemic until mid-September began to lead the team, he tried to help the team members relax, mobilize the enthusiasm of training, and was well received by the team members.

Sun Yiwen laughed and said that he was a "funny person" and a serious and responsible coach, who was very good in life, but the training was very strict, meticulous and serious. Xu Anqi said that everyone said that Yuge was "polarized", the work was very serious, the first time I was punished by the national team was yawning, I was punished for push-ups, this attitude is also affecting athletes. In life, he was passionate, mischievous and funny.
Fish cannot leave the water, and geese cannot leave the flock. In the Olympic arena, in addition to the coaches who often appear in the front row, the physical fitness, rehabilitation and other support teams are also indispensable.
During the Tokyo Olympic cycle, the national weightlifting team focused on building a composite support team that integrated management and training, science and medicine. The weightlifting project has bid farewell to the former single "master with apprentice" extensive small workshop training mode, and has continuously improved the all-round scientific training and participation mode for individual project team combat.
In this Olympic Games, Zhou Jinqiang, chairman of the China Weightlifting Association, was deeply touched by the role of the support team: "It is really the role of the team that guarantees the gold medal! ”
He said that we have a strong support team covering rehabilitation, physical fitness and even psychology, they have been silently paying behind their backs for many years, the gold medal has their hard work, and Dr. Gao Shun, who is in the backcourt of Lu Xiaojun's game, has to treat, rehabilitate and massage the team members every day until 11 o'clock. Other doctors on the team, such as physical fitness teachers and rehabilitation engineers, are like this.

For example, the other team members will be fine after sleeping, and 37-year-old Lu Xiaojun is recovering slowly and needs a long massage and relaxation. Fortunately, this team is very well protected, so far, Lu Xiaojun has no major injuries that affect training, and even better than the performance of some young players. "With such a strong support team, I believe that the Chinese team will have more athletes like Lu Xiaojun in the future." Zhou Jinqiang said.
At present, the national weightlifting team has a physical rehabilitation team from all over the world. The expatriate team consists of registered physiotherapists, chiropractic therapists and physical fitness coaches from Spain, Australia, Tunisia and the United States, playing a complementary and auxiliary role in addition to the duties of Chinese coaches and doctors.

"We establish individual training, recovery and treatment programs for athletes to complement the specific needs of each weightlifter. For example, we often start by dealing with previous injury areas, which we know is a major factor in the risk of future injuries. It is mainly reflected in the reduction of imbalances in both limbs and cores, limitations of movement or movement control and potential overuse problems. ”
Tommy, a physical fitness coach from the United States, told reporters that they will have detailed conversations with teams of coaches, athletes, researchers and doctors to evaluate, review and monitor athletes, so as to provide comprehensive preparation for weightlifters.
In addition to the foreign team, more "behind-the-scenes heroes" are the Chinese coaching team. For example, the Chinese swimming team, which won 3 gold, 2 silver and 1 bronze, performed eye-catching, and many coaches and teams contributed. Coach Zhu Zhigen believes that because the state provides more perfect protection, the negative impact of the epidemic on Chinese athletes is small, and the systematic training during the epidemic has maintained a competitive state.

Taking Wang Shun, a 27-year-old who won the men's 200-meter medley championship, as an example, Zhu Zhigen said that the team was specially equipped with physical trainers to strengthen the strength of the support team. In addition to massage, relaxation and timely solution to injury problems, it is more important to strengthen physical training, specific to the strength of a certain muscle, targeted to improve his explosiveness and underwater strength.
It can be seen that whether it is basic athletics, swimming, weightlifting, fencing and other sports, in the arena, in addition to affirming the individual talent and efforts of athletes, scientific training under the guidance of a perfect support team is also a prerequisite for success. Of course, even those athletes who have not won the medal for the time being, there is a team behind them that is unknown, which all the time tells the strength of the team and pays tribute to them!
