Analysis On The Competitive Ability Of Elite Female Triathletes In China

The triathlon originated in the United States and was introduced to China in the 1980 s.The national sports commission and the all-China sports federation approved the establishment of the China triathlon association(CTSA)in Beijing in 1990,the same year that the China triathlon association joined the Chinese Olympic committee and the international triathlon federation(ITU).It became an Olympic sport in 2000.Since 2001,triathlon teams have been set up in various provinces and cities in China.Due to the late development of triathlon in China,there has been no great breakthrough in competition results,the overall competitive level is not high,the development is not balanced,and there is a big gap compared with the elite athletes of foreign triathlon..This paper aims to analyze competitive ability of Chines outstanding female triathlon athletes,find important factors which affect their competitive ability and the gap between Chinese female triathlon athletes and foreign female triathlon athletes,and improve the competition ability of Chinese female triathlon athletes and future training of Chinese triathlon with the help of literature method,survey method,mathematical statistics and logic analysis.The results show that:(1)in terms of physical fitness,triathletes should not only have the characteristics of tall stature,but also have the characteristics of moderate enrichment and weight.Strength endurance,aerobic endurance and speed strength are the common characteristics of the three sub-sports.The difference of physical ability between domestic and foreign athletes is sports quality.(2)in terms of technology,the most important technologies are swimming in the middle of the swimming event,pedaling and turning in the cycling event,and breathing and "pole" treatment in the long-distance running event.The difference in swimming technique between domestic and foreign athletes is that they swim on the way,the difference in bicycle technique is that they bend,and the difference in long-distance running technique is that they adjust their breathing.(3)in terms of tactics,the most important tactics are the tactics for the first half of swimming,the group tactics for cycling and the tactics for increasing the final impact distance in long-distance running.The difference in swimming tactics between domestic and foreign athletes is the technique of the second half of the race,the difference in cycling tactics is the group tactics,and the difference in long-distance running tactics is the uniform running tactics.(4)in terms of psychology,the most important psychological ability is the ability to resist interference.The difference of sports psychology between domestic and foreign athletes is reflected in their ability to withstand interference.(5)in terms of sports intelligence,the most important ones are motion perception and attention.The difference between domestic and foreign athletes’ sports intelligence is sports perception.Based on the research results,the following suggestions are put forward:(1)select athletes according to their body shape,sports quality level and physical function level,and strengthen physical fitness training.(2)conduct targeted training according to the importance of each sub-project technology,and enhance the weak technical ability of each sub-project.(3)strengthen the training of tactical ability,increase the ability of tactical cooperation among teammates while improving athletes’ own competitive ability.Enables the athlete to be able to use the tactical coordination flexibly when the different field and the competition condition.(4)pay attention to the psychological state of athletes before,during,after and in daily training,find out the reasons for the lack of psychological state of athletes and help them overcome it,and pay attention to the different requirements of athletes of different competitive levels on psychological ability.(5)improve the professional theoretical knowledge of athletes to make them realize the important role of sports intelligence,establish the measurement and evaluation system of sports intelligence,and combine the actual conditions of training and competition for evaluation.
