Zizhao Chuan: The Biggest Sportsman

Chapter 798 Merritt on Rise

From the beginning of this year, Aris Merritt began to practice the seven-step climbing technique.

Starting from the initial starting acceleration, the replacement of the front and rear feet, the starting posture, the rhythm of exerting force and the frequency of acceleration will all be quite different from the previous eight-step uphill.

After Merritt gradually adapted to the new starting and accelerating rhythm, Guo Zizhao arranged for him to start training on the hurdle.

After changing to seven-step hurdles, not only will the rhythm of the first three hurdles change, but at the same time, the rhythm and frequency of all subsequent hurdles, as well as the physical distribution of the entire game will undergo considerable changes.

It is not necessary to readjust the game habits and rhythm that have been used to it for several years, and to turn these new changes into your own muscle memory and habits, so that you can use them perfectly without thinking in the game. Simple process.

So, these changes are a whole set of training and re-adaptation process.For this reason, Merritt has been practicing in seclusion under Guo Zizhao's arrangement since the beginning of the year. He did not even participate in this year's World Indoor Championships and several Diamond League games in the first half of the year.

Regarding Guo Zizhao's arrangement, neither Merritt himself nor Coach Thomas had any objections.Guo Zizhao is an authority on the seven-step hurdle technique, so his arrangement naturally has his reasons.What's more, Merritt's physical condition is still different from ordinary people, which makes everyone be more cautious during training.

Originally, the seven-step hurdle technique puts a much heavier burden on the body than the eight-step hurdle technique, so Guo Zizhao had to check on Merritt's physical condition frequently during the retraining process, and adjust the training plan or training in time. strength.If Merritt's kidney disease was accidentally revealed, his club would probably become famous!

Therefore, Guo Zizhao originally estimated that it would take about 5 months to fully adapt to the seven-step hurdle, but it took Merritt nearly 7 months to completely change and practice successfully.

Of course, Merritt's efforts in the past seven months have not been in vain.

除了能够把七步上栏技术完美的使用出来之外，梅里特的“力量”属性也是提高了2点，达到了94+1点的国际顶级水平。“弹跳”属性也提高了1点，达到了90+1点的国际一流水平。

In addition to the international top "agility" and "precision" attributes that already reached 94+1 points, and the same international top "speed" and "skill" attributes that reached 92+1 points, in this way, we have 5 items With the blessing of the seven-step hurdling technique, Merritt, the top international hurdler, also successfully broke through the 13-second barrier, and successfully advanced to become a new international top hurdler.

Next, Merritt's goal is to prove his strength in official international competitions!
……

Of course, when Merritt successfully broke through the 13-second mark in the club's internal test, he was naturally moved to tears.

Unexpectedly, I really broke through the 13-second mark and became a top hurdler!It's not easy...

Ever since I was found to have hereditary kidney disease, I thought my life would be over like this. Maybe after a few years, I would bid farewell to my career silently.But since meeting Guo Zizhao, everything has changed, and everything is full of hope again!

After I signed with Guo Zizhao's track and field club, my strength began to improve significantly. I was no longer so vulnerable to injury, and I became a top international hurdler!Last year, I actually defeated Liu Feifei and won a bronze medal in the World Championships!
But now, I didn't expect that I could go to the next level and become the world's top hurdler master!Practice seven-step hurdles and break through the 13-second mark... This is the dream of all hurdlers!I didn't expect such a lucky thing to actually happen to me...

Seeing Merritt with tears in his eyes, Guo Zizhao also had a complicated expression.

On the one hand, I am happy for Merritt's success, but on the other hand, I am worried that the national team will have no successors in this project.

Liu Feifei's talent and strength are unquestionable. Guo Zizhao believes that after his own conditioning, Liu Feifei's grades will be even better than in his previous life.

However, Liu Feifei's "Physical" attribute is relatively low, which is still a problem after all.In addition, his Achilles tendon after serious injury surgery is also a potential hidden danger.

Sigh... If only Liu Feifei could become his inner disciple.Just like Zhang Peimeng and Lao Yi back then, although they also have hidden dangers after recovering from serious injuries, their own bowl of "Strengthening Muscles and Strengthening Bones Powder" can immediately recover as before.

such a pity……

Except for Liu Feifei, although Shi Dongpeng's current achievements are vastly different from those in his previous life, this is already the limit of what he can achieve.In addition, Shi Dongpeng is also 26 years old this year. After the peak period of these two years is over, it is estimated that he will lose the advantage of the seven-step hurdle soon.

As for Yi Jing, Xie Wenjun, Jiang Yifan and others, haha... they are still far behind compared to Liu Feifei and Shi Dongpeng!
……

Guo Zizhao estimated that although Merritt's current seven-step hurdle is successful, and the score can be improved by 0.05 to 0.1 seconds, after Liu Feifei's "Physical" attribute is successfully upgraded, he will still be able to steadily suppress Merritt. .

But next year, when Merritt's attributes have been upgraded again and he has become a true abnormal master, Liu Feifei will probably be in doubt if he wants to suppress Merritt again!

Now, Merritt has 5 attributes that have reached the top international level!Especially the "Strength", "Agility" and "Precision" attributes are only one step away from the abnormal level of 96 points.If there are no accidents, Merritt will be able to have one attribute reach 95+1 points before the end of the year.

Tsk tsk tsk... You know, Merritt's "potential value" is 97+1 points!He is on par with Liu Feifei!In addition, Merritt's "Physique" attribute and the balanced development of each attribute are better than Liu Feifei. When Merritt becomes a perverted master, his strength will be even more terrifying than Robles's today!

Sigh... I really don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse that I have cultivated such a super master with my own hands!
Fortunately, Merritt is destined to not be at his peak for too long due to his kidney disease.In addition, he has now practiced the seven-step climbing technique in advance, which will not only improve his performance, but also accelerate the progression of his kidney disease.

I just hope that Liu Feifei can withstand Merritt's strong impact in the future!

After Merritt's excitement calmed down a bit, Guo Zizhao also smiled and went up to congratulate the other party, "Congratulations, Aris! Now you have the world's top strength!"

"Thank you, Boss!" Merritt also said gratefully, "Without your guidance over the past two years, I would not have achieved the results I have now!"

"Haha...don't talk about that. Since you are a contracted athlete of my club, I should do all this!" Guo Zizhao also smiled and patted Merritt on the shoulder, and continued, "There is a good I want to tell you that we have signed up for three Diamond League matches for you, the Paris station on July 7, the Morocco station on July 16, and the London super station on August 7. Of course, if If you can get enough diamond points in these three races, you will still have the opportunity to participate in the finals in Zurich on August 22th!”

"Hehe... I hope you can successfully break through the 13-second mark in the official competition this time! Let the whole world see your progress and strength this year!"

"Really?" Merritt also exclaimed in surprise, "Haha... Don't worry, boss, I won't let you down!"

Merritt also said with confidence, "This time, I must let those guys who thought I was dead and can no longer stand on the track go to hell!"

Seeing Merritt's ferocious expression, Guo Zizhao also laughed.It seems that after Merritt was diagnosed with kidney disease, he was often made things difficult by the previous brokerage company!And after Merritt successfully won a bronze medal in the World Championships last year, now he has successfully broken through the 13-second mark. It is estimated that Merritt's old club is really regretful...

However, Guo Zizhao still smiled and comforted Merritt, and then said seriously, "I told you good news just now, and now it should be bad news! You have to be prepared..."
