Research On Training Process Of High Level Canoe Slalom Athletes In Pre-competition

Although canoe slalom has been developing rapidly in the past ten years in China, there's still a wide gap between developed countries. In order to shorten the gap and improve the competition level of canoe slalom players in our country, it is essential to learn advanced training ideas and methods from foreign countries as well as to set up a scientific training monitor system which is suitable for domestic athletes. This research is based on a long-term practice that following professional sports team. It analyses the training of high level domestic canoe slalom athletes and draws the following conclusions:(1) The specific character of canoe slalom includes:Mainly based on anaerobic metabolism, a high intensity athletic sports game that combines single movement and multiple movements.(2) The research has found that according to the specific goal of high level canoe slalom athletes in different training sessions, Fujian Team develops players'adaptive ability to different playing grounds by the method of changing training ground.(3) According to the research and analysis of high level canoe slalom athelets in Fujian Team in the training session before the 11th National Games, the rhythm variation of training load in Fujian Team during different training sessions are:Medium-high workload with high intensity→Low or medium-high workload with low intensity→Medium-high or low workload with high intensity.(4) The research has found that the pre-season training of Fujian Team is based on the basis of physical training, skills training as the core, for the protection of intellectual training. The training methods Fujian Team has used for high level canoe slalom athletes during the training sessions before the 11th National Games include:Interval Training Method, Circuit Training Method, Continuance Training Method, Repetition Training Method, Replace Training Method and Competitive Racing Method. The training means can be divided into 8 categories:strength, stamina, speed, flexibility, sensitivity and harmony, technique, mentality and intelligence.(5) The research has found that Fujian Team has undertaken comprehensive assessment of functional capacity for high level canoe slalom athletes during the training sessions before the 11th National Games. The assessment which is based on biochemical test and analysis of hemoglobin (HB), serum creatine kinase (CK), blood urea (BUN) has provided scientific evidence for training monitor before the games.(6) Based on case analysis, the research has found that the requirement of mental ability for canoe slalom athletes is extremely high. It is out of great importance for athlets, especially high level athletes to set up detailed programmatic training plan in order to maintain an optimal state of performance.
