Why do Jamaicans sprint so fast?

Strictly speaking, almost all Jamaicans are African-American immigrants. Africans' athletic talent has long been world-famous, so Jamaicans' natural muscle types give them extraordinary ability in track and field. Secondly, Jamaica's mountainous tropical rainforest terrain has also exercised their extraordinary physique. In recent years, this view has been supported by academic circles.

2, the day after tomorrow training pays attention to casual fluency.

In the high-tech era, the concept of "paying attention to details" was popular in track and field sports, and every link of training was carefully carved. For example, China's "trapeze" has a set of strict standards in strength training, running rhythm and swinging methods.

But Powell, the world record holder 100 meters ago, and Bolt, the current world record holder, are "anti-traditional" generations. In Jamaica, almost everyone likes sports since childhood. They like strenuous running and regard it as a pleasure. Jamaicans love running. With this premise, professional track and field coaches would rather not follow some rules in training style. They don't ask athletes to swing their arms to what extent, but pay more attention to the coordination and relaxation of movements, and regard acceleration, midway and sprint as a smooth and natural whole process. This entertaining training method further develops the potential of athletes. They no longer exercise a certain muscle like their predecessors, but have new requirements for local muscle groups and the feeling of overall force. This training method is completely different from the traditional way, and has some special artistic conception.

3' Policy experts enjoy high treatment.

Many years ago, European and American countries used generous scholarships to attract outstanding Jamaican athletes and engaged in "track and field immigration", which almost wiped out Jamaican track and field athletes. The Barcelona Olympic Games in 1992, Christie who won the 100 meter championship on behalf of Britain, Bailey who participated in the 1996 100 meter Olympic Games in Atlanta, and Johnson who participated in the 200 meter championship on behalf of the United States are all Jamaican immigrants.

Thirty years ago, people of insight in Jamaica decided to adopt the policy of "cherishing talents" for their own sports tradition and talent growth. All athletes who stay in Jamaica for training can get the same generous treatment as those who immigrate to Europe and America. The government promised them scholarships to go to university and opportunities to communicate with European and American countries. After this policy of "cherishing talents" lasted for 30 years, the sprint of the world finally entered the "Jamaican era". Anthony davis, director of the Sports Department of Jamaican University of Science and Technology, proudly said: "Today, you see track and field athletes in our country blooming everywhere, which is due to our sowing many years ago."

Not only athletes will be favored by the government, but track and field coaches in Jamaica will also get very rich income. From physical education teachers in local schools to coaches of national training teams, their income is much higher than the average level of Jamaicans. In addition, the Jamaican Sports Department will spend a lot of money to train them regularly, so that they can learn the most advanced training techniques in the world at the first time. It is because of this investment at all costs that Jamaica has become today's "dominant sprinter".

4'' Successful Traditional plus System

Sprint has a rich mass base in the Caribbean, especially in Jamaica. A strong mass base is the guarantee for them to dominate this field. As a former British colony, Jamaica has inherited the tradition of the suzerain country's love for sports. Five-year-olds have begun to take part in national competitions. As long as there is a decent open space, young people will arrange sprint competitions. In the words of Elliott, executive director of IAAF Jamaica, "You can go to Kingston (the capital of Jamaica) to watch the high school competition there. If you go late for the weekend, you can't get in at all because the stadium is crowded. " ︶ㄣOo═→
