The little episode just now, in the rugby rookie training camp, is not worth mentioning at all, there is no conflict and friction, then hell. After the commotion calmed down, the training camp was on the right track, and the rookies were orderly on the first day of the planned journey.
In the four-day rookie training camp, the first day of the first round is the basic test. The training camp will carry out relevant tests on each body index of the rookies and record them. Before, the first all-round physical test is also an important starting point for the career of rookies. These data will accompany their entire careers.
Three hundred and thirty-two rookies are divided into four groups for different tests, including physical parameter determination, Cybex test, injury assessment and Vondriek test. After each group tests its own options, cross-test Until everyone has completed all four tests.
Each player is wearing an official jersey, with a number on the chest and the position of the court, and the player ’s initials on the back. However, the number is not the player number, but the number to apply for registration. It has no practical significance. It is as if every player has a number on the track and field stadium of the Olympic Games. This is the same reason.
“Quarterback, number eleven!”
Right in front of the shout, Lu Ke stepped forward. His chest number is the eleventh, maybe it was a coincidence, maybe luck, but this is the first time in Lu Ke’s career wearing a jersey with his name: the eleventh on the front, and “K.” on the back. LU “. The sailing of a career is finally a bit real.
“Take off your shoes and stand on an electronic scale.” The first project that quarterbacks are working on is the measurement of physical parameters. In simple terms, it is the measurement of basic physical parameters such as the height, weight, and arm length of the players. For running backs and strikers, they must also perform body fat content tests.
“6.33 feet (193 cm) and 187.4 pounds (85 kg).” The United States uses British units of measurement, as do feet, dimensions, pounds, ounces, and yards on the court.
After recording the basic physical data of Lu Ke, the well-informed and unpredictable inspector could not help raising his head, glanced at Lu Ke, and his eyes showed surprise.
Even if he didn’t say much, Lu Ke could understand. He nodded chuckledly, “Trust me, I’m working hard.”
Weight and muscle, this has always been the shortcomings of Lu Ke.
In the past, when the body was still vigorously developing, muscle growth was Lu Ke ’s biggest problem. It can be said to be a talent or a gene. His muscle growth rate was always unsatisfactory; after entering the university, it was basically stagnant. In the past, no matter how hard he tried, he had little effect, which is why he has no way to join the team and can only barely become a sparring partner.
Everyone’s physical development and growth have ceiling limits. After touching the limit, they can no longer continue to grow. Objectively speaking, Lu Ke’s height-to-weight ratio is just right for ordinary people. The BMI index is within the normal range. Muscle content and body fat content are no problem, but for professional athletes, it is still too bad. Far.
After getting the system, it seems that the “ceiling” has finally been broken. In the past six months, with the hard training, the weight finally began to slowly increase. From 78 kg to 85 kg, although it is only 7 kg, this is the first time Lu Ke has regained hope after entering the university.
However, this is not enough.
Horizontal comparison, Cam Newton, 6.43 feet (196 cm), 245 pounds (111 kg); In addition, Aron Rogers, the elite quarterback, 6.2 feet (188 cm), 225 pounds (102 kg).
If Cam ’s weight is slightly stronger, he can often gain the upper hand in head-to-head confrontation, which makes him win the nickname of “Superman”; then Aron, who is relatively strong and strong, has a ratio of height to weight It’s already standard on quarterbacks.
Calculating according to Lu Ke ’s height, 95 kg should be the bottom line. In the frontal collision and confrontation on the court, the quarterback will not “fall down with a push”, but now Lu Ke ’s weight is still At only 85 kilograms, it is really too thin, and it can even be said to be weak, and it is still 10 kilograms away from the minimum standard.
Even for light-weight wide receivers, the weight is still slightly insufficient. In a head-to-head confrontation, the gap between tonnages is too large to form a confrontation at all. It is probably the reason that the strength will be reduced for ten sessions.
Quarterbacks don’t need to be too strong, because this is not a bulldozer type position, but they need the ability to protect themselves. The ratio of height to weight is not a rigid requirement, but it has a minimum basic requirement.
Even the inspectors who have seen countless rookies are still unavoidably surprised, but they did n’t say much. Then they measured various data such as arm length and bust, and finally pointed to the transparent long ruler on the desktop. Extreme. “
This is a special test that only the quarterback needs to perform: five fingers spread, the length from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger, requires not less than 9 inches (23 cm), because the traditional quarterback coach believes that Below this index, there is a suspicion of falling too easily.
In fact, after modern science proves that this argument has been denied. But the coaches and managers of the team still have some superstitions, more or less believe that the wide quarterback in the palm of the hand can control the football more freely. Therefore, during rookie training camp, quarterbacks will still test this data, as to whether the team believes in adoption, it will vary from person to person.
“11.5 inches.” The inspector recorded the data and carefully scanned Lu Ke’s overall data. To be honest, Lu Ke is a natural quarterback. His height is just right. His limbs are slender, the proportions are perfect, the body is coordinated, and his posture is flexible. At the same time, his palms are wide; In rugged sports like rugby, weight and muscle are really important.
Involuntarily, the inspector kindly suggested, “If you want to be an excellent quarterback, you should gain a little weight.”
Lu Ke put on her shoes again and said with a smile, “Thank you!”
Turning around, Cam ’s smiling face came into his eyes, and he smiled unintentionally, “Bambi, Bambi, Fawn, Bambi! Roaring, Bambi is going into the forest, oh, what? They are all beasts, tigers, lions, cheetahs, and deer Bambi, but they are crying and going home to find their mother. “
Three steps away, Scott showed an apologetic smile. In the chat, he talked about the Rose Bowl and Lu Ke. He accidentally mentioned the nickname “Bambi” and stood aside. Cam is obviously a “shunfeng ear”, or maybe he does have a preference for eavesdropping.
Lu Ke waved carelessly, ignoring Kam’s sarcasm and ridicule, and walked towards Scott, saying with a smile, “Even in February, the flies are still lingering.”
Physical confrontation is Lu Ke ’s shortcoming, which was already the case in high school. Not to mention that compared to a strong player like Cam Newton, even if compared with the college average, he is still far inferior, otherwise, When he was a freshman and a sophomore, he wouldn’t even lose his sparring qualifications.
It is true that rugby is closely related to physical confrontation, but the sport is far more than that, especially for quarterbacks.
Cam’s sarcasm is only for pediatrics. In the past few years, Lu Ke has long been accustomed to and disregarded. Standing contentedly beside him, he communicated with the other quarterbacks for the next measurement. Cam, who was laid aside, soon became suspicious and closed his mouth reluctantly, but the ridiculous line of sight was always waving. Don’t go, follow the shadows.
After the physical parameters were measured, the quarterback team conducted another Cybex test. This is a very professional test, specifically used to determine the player’s flexibility and joint movement. It is especially critical for evaluating players with injuries or a history of injuries. Coaches and evaluators have very good data for this test. attention.
Before the formal test, the player first performs the preparation activities on the indoor training bike, then sits on the test system and performs three preparation activities before the official test is allowed. The whole test lasts for five minutes, and then the results appear in the form of a table, including a number of professional data such as body characteristic graphs, relationship curve graphs, and best repeated value comparison. The test results and the results of other projects are all recorded.
In the sports career so far, Lu Ke has not suffered serious injuries, at most only minor injuries such as minor sprains or strains, and his overall health is very good; of course, he did not fight at all during his four years in college What kind of competition have you had as a sparring time for only one year, so this is a matter of course.
According to systematic assessment, the injury resistance index is 77 points, which is not top, but compared with Lu Ke’s physical fitness, this data is already very good. This is very important for extending his career-of course, the premise is that he has a career.
The third item is the injury assessment, which is complementary to the Cybex test. If the Cybex test detects the current state of the player after the injury; then, the injury assessment is a review of the injury history and recovery Judging the situation and the likelihood of continued injury in the future.
The NFL team attaches great importance to the injuries of the players they are interested in. No team is willing to sign a player who is injured or vulnerable. The entire evaluation process includes X-ray fluoroscopy and physical examination to evaluate the history and current status of injuries. For those injured players, the evaluation process is more rigorous.
There are very few players who have passed physical examinations and found out that they are not even aware of their injuries. A thorough inspection will be carried out in the training camp to ensure the health of the players and injuries, which is the foundation of everything.
In this assessment, Lu Ke completed it with ease, without any problems; but Came was given special attention. On the one hand, he is a popular player, and many teams want to fully understand his situation; on the other hand, he missed the entire season because of an ankle injury when he was a sophomore.
In addition, the injury assessment also includes a urine test to check whether the player has used illegal drugs or stimulants. ?
Finally, the quarterback team conducted the final part of the basic test, the von Derek test; although this test is very important for every player, its importance is undoubtedly for the quarterback. The most important.
For quarterbacks, the importance of this test even exceeds physical testing, injury assessment, etc. It is the most important means for each team to assess the potential and ability of quarterbacks!
