羅曼諾夫博士的姿勢跑法與奧運選手親密接觸之後，會產生什麼樣的

「

金牌

效應？一位曾經渾身傷病、應力性骨折多達

處，職業運動生涯瀕臨悲劇結尾的年輕女子三項賽國家隊隊員，在接受姿勢跑法的訓練之後，跑步對於她不再是恐懼的心理陰影，運動帶來的疼痛感漸漸消失，爭勝信心加倍。

When we are talking about elite athletes』 training, there exists an assumption that there will be something to learn there, no matter any negative or positive outcomes of these stories. In the first case, one will learn what to avoid in one』s own training,and in the second, he will know what to use and implement into it. Here is astory from my experience of working with Olympic level athletes about injuries in running and how they impact an athlete』s career.

說到專業運動員的訓練，人們都會覺得不管結果是好是壞，總有值得學習的東西。首先，他會學到在訓練中應該避免什麼。其次，他會知道什麼東西應該應用到訓練之中。下面是我和奧林匹克運動員一起訓練的故事，其中有在奔跑中經歷過的痛苦以及這些痛苦對運動員職業生涯產生的影響。

In 2001, when I was working with the British National Triathlon Team, the Team』s head coach and a personal coach of one the Team』s athletes approached me. He asked me to help him solve a serious problem that put a young female triathlete on the edge of her professional career. She was an excellent swimmer and cyclist, but, unfortunately, her running performance was way behind her swimming and cycling.

2001年，我在英國國家三項全能隊任職。一天，總教練和隊中一位運動員的私人教練找到我，讓我幫他解決一個比較棘手的問題，這個問題正在毀掉一位年輕女性運動員的職業生涯。她是一位優秀的游泳健將和自行車手。但不幸的是，她在跑步上的表現遠遠落後於游泳和自行車。

Also it wasn』t the worst thing. Running also brought hera lot of pain – physical and emotional, as over the last few years she was plagued with many injuries. According to her medical records she had elevenstress fractures! The girl was devastated by this problem, and it was very clear that this condition could end her career.

更為糟糕的是，不管是精神上還是身體上，跑步都讓她痛苦不堪。在過去的幾年裡，傷痛帶給她太多折磨。從病歷來看，她身上共有11處應力性骨折，這個問題幾乎把她壓垮。很明顯，這些都直接威脅到了她的職業生涯。

Any training in running, any session from the intervals on the track to long runs, presented her with mentaland physical challenges, scaring her and making her mentally very fragile. Sometimes, according to her coach, she was throwing up before the session onthe track, because of so much fear. So in the fall of 2001 season, according toa mutual agreement between us all (the athlete, her coach and me) I started working with her, as well as several other teammates during various holding camps of the National Team.

任何跑步訓練以及長跑過程中的中間環節對她來說都意味著心理和身體上的雙重挑戰，讓她感到恐懼，精神上變得極其脆弱。她的教練說，開始跑步前，她有時候甚至由於巨大的恐懼而導致嘔吐。因此在2001年賽季的秋天，我們三人（教練、我和她本人）達成一致，我開始和她一起訓練，還包括國家隊訓練營的其他幾個隊員。

The beginning was very difficult. She was still fearful to run. She also had no idea what running skills are and her mindset was the same, as of most other people, amateurs and professionals alike, that you don』t need to learn how to run because it』s anatural ability for humans. At the same time she could never explain what it was, and why that 「natural ability」 brought injuries to people?

開始的階段非常艱難。她仍然害怕跑步，而且不知道什麼是跑步技巧。與一部分業餘和專業運動員一樣，她覺得沒有必要去學習如何跑步，因為跑步本來就是人類的一項本能。同時，她也沒辦法解釋跑步是什麼，為什麼它會給人們帶來傷痛。

Additionally, learning the Pose Method was completely alien to her. She wasn』t accustomed to doing unknown drills, getting a new perception, going again and again through「boring」 running technique drills and implementing these senses, perception and movement patterns into her running.

並且，她對姿勢跑法一無所知，不習慣去做不了解的事情，去接受一個新的概念，去一遍又一遍地重複無聊的跑步技巧訓練，更何況還要將這些感覺、概念和動作模式應用到跑步中去。

She was very often at a loss, not comprehending the process and not getting the needed perception. It drove her emotions up to frustration and she could not believe that her problem could be solved that way and she could learn how to run without pain and fear, and, perhaps, even faster.

很多時候她會覺得茫然無措，不理解為什麼要做這些，也不理解為什麼會需要這些理論基礎。這讓她感到很沮喪。她不相信問題能夠通過這種方式得到解決，也不相信她能夠在沒有疼痛和恐懼的狀態下跑步，甚至還會跑得更快。

It was a struggling time, her mood constantly alternated from hope to frustration. But with her coach』ssupport, belief and constant encouragement, and my confidence in the final success, she overcame this emotional turmoil and soon her improvement became quite evident. For the first time she started to run without pain, with less fear and with much better technique.

這個過程很痛苦，她情緒不定，有時希望滿滿，有時沮喪失落。但是由於教練的支持、信任、不斷地鼓勵以及自己對最後取勝的信心，她克服了種種情緒波動。很快，她便取得了非常明顯的進步。運用了技巧去跑步之後，她發現，疼痛和恐懼消失了。

Our work was finalized at the World Championships in September 2002 in Cancun, Mexico. After a month of weather adaptation camp in Clermont, Florida (USA), we came to the race ready to perform. The result was outstanding. In the hot and humid weather conditions, competing with all the best athletes in the Olympic distance, shewon the race in the final leg – in running, with her personal best in 10km –35:00. It was 3 minute and 30 seconds improvement from her previous PR on 10km.

我們所有的努力，在2002年墨西哥坎昆舉行的世界錦標賽中看到了成果。在美國佛羅里達克萊蒙特一個月的氣候適應營之後，我們為比賽做好了充分準備，結果非常理想。在又熱又潮濕的氣候狀況下，她與其他優秀的運動員一起同場角逐，最終以10公里35分鐘的個人最好成績獲得了冠軍，將她之前的個人最好成績一舉提高了3分30秒。

But mostly it was about no fear of running. Her career lasted long. In 2012 shewon Hawaii Ironman. During that time she had no injuries and running became a strong part of her performance.

所有的訓練結果都是令人滿意的。最為重要的是，她對跑步不再感到恐懼。2012年，她再次贏得了夏威夷鐵人三項賽。她的訓練不再有任何疼痛，跑步成為了她的強項。

究竟姿勢跑法的神奇魔力是什麼？

這一位奧運選手身上又發生了哪些改變？

她是如何克服身心的雙重障礙，再次獲得冠軍的？
