Philosophy and Practice in SUN Haiping's Hurdle TrainingBased on the Perspective of Personalized Training

From the perspective of personalized training, the training philosophy and practices of SUN Haiping, a famous hurdle coach in China, are studied with literature review, field investigations and expert interviews. The results showed that SUN Haiping established two core principles of static control of technical movements and integrated training system. He designed training plans of "double peak" mode, prominent four-stage target, "jagged" load characteristics and "10-day mode" in the annual cycle, meso-cycle, micro-cycle and pre-competition preparation, respectively. He regarded neural-muscle system excitability as the core of hurdling speed training, advocated using the "long-short" combination method to improve hurdling cycle speed, utilized resistance running and assistance running to break through speed barriers. Also, he emphasized the integration benefits of individual exercise movements and set personalized physical fitness training programs. In addition, he used a "heavy-light" load combination strength training to develop fast power and focused on specialized strength training. SUN innovated personalized strength exercise methods, implemented personalized technical diagnosis, optimized personalized technical indicators, and used varied training scenarios to enhance athletes' psychology.
