Su, a famous track and field athlete in China and a professor at Jinan University's School of Physical Education, recently visited Peiqiao Middle School and shared his sports story with the students. At the scene, he was warmly welcomed and applauded. The students scrambled to shake hands with him, and even some students boldly said, "Sue, you are my God!" "
In Su's view, his sports career can be described as "persistence". He recalled that in 20 19, he was eager to hit the Asian record, but his strong desire led to problems in training, waist injury and the need to go abroad for examination and treatment. However, even though he is in poor health, he still insists on training every day.
A few days ago, he and his teammates Tang Xingqiang, Xie and Wu Zhiqiang won the bronze medal in the men's 4× 100-meter relay at the Tokyo Olympic Games, which was the first medal won by the Chinese men's 4× 100-meter relay team and the first Olympic medal won by Su.
Although he is 34 years old, Su said that he still persevered and looked forward to winning glory for China at the Paris Olympic Games next year.
Students from Hong Kong 17 School listened to Su's sharing and asked him their own questions. What should I do if it is difficult for Peiqiao track and field team to break through the bottleneck period? In this regard, Su suggested that we should find out the details of the problem from the training and pay attention to the running technical movements, starting movements and physical fitness.
Perseverance is far more important than talent.
On the question of which is more important, the talent of athletes or the efforts of the day after tomorrow, Sue thinks that the efforts of the day after tomorrow are more important. He said that he did not have excellent conditions, and he met many talented athletes, but he practiced hard and failed. He believes that "the efforts of the day after tomorrow will enable athletes to reach the finish line and board the highest podium."
For schools or individuals who are willing to train outstanding track and field talents, Su welcomes interested students to visit Jinan University for training. He revealed his "secret" in the process of winning the championship, and said that the Su Speed Research and Training Center of Jinan University will provide training opportunities for potential "good seedlings".
