A Study on Improving Middle-and-Long Distance Running Performance of College Students with Segmented Intensity Indicator Training Method

Abstract

The track and field teams in colleges and universities are made up of the specially recruited athletes and normally recruited athletes, which are established in order to take part in the matches on and off campus or home and abroad. Extracurricular track and field training is the essential part of the physical education in colleges and universities, indicating the level of physical education on campus. To improve specific endurance, intensity timed running shorter than specific distance is adopted. Super intensity running shorter than specific distance is important in improving middle-distance performance. When using speed agility run, repeated run and regular standard-speed run in exercise, if the specific temporal requirement were not calculated before, it is easy to cause unreasonable physical power distribution. In unplanned run, the speed of each segment can not reach personal specific level. The effect of exercise is bad when your strength is consumed blindly, thus the performance will not improve. Therefore, reasonable time of each segment should be calculated before run and in every exercise, which is important for athletes to create the best performance. The purpose of the study is to explore the use and application of segmented intensity indicator middle and long distance training in colleges. By studying middle and long distance athletes in 6 colleges using segmented intensity indicator training method and comparing the performance before and after the training, the author concludes that this method could effectively improve college middle- and -long distance running performance. On the basis of the training directed by the method of segmented intensity indicator, the extent of the performing improvement before and after the training, and the statistic analysis of this difference of the extent, it is concluded that this study is of great benefit to the training of middle-and-long distance running and achieves good performance.
