Charles Hamelin, Three-time Olympic Champion, World Champion Targeting: Pyeongchang 2018 Event: Short Track Speed Skating Date of birth: April 14, 1984 Hometown: Lévis, Quebec Travels from: Montréal, Quebec Athletic Highlights: • 2014 Olympic Gold Medalist – 1500m • 2016 World Champion – 1000m • 2013 Olympic Test Event Gold Medalist– 500m & 1000m • 2010 Olympic Gold Medalist – 500m & Team Relay • 2012 World Champion – Team Relay • 2009 and 2007 World Champion – 500m • 2006 Olympic Silver Medalist – Team Relay Background: “These will be my Games.” After trading world titles in short track’s glamour event with Dancing with the Stars winner Apolo Anton Ohno, Charles Hamelin came into Vancouver looking to win an even bigger prize – an Olympic gold medal on home ice against his wildly popular American rival. Manifesto Sport Management 220-10 Street NE Calgary, Alberta Canada T2E 4M1 For the first 14 days of the Olympics, Charles was still waiting for the hardware to back up his bold prediction. On the final Friday evening of the Games, Charles claimed his moment. Then he did it again. First, in a dramatic men’s 500m, Charles edged Apolo at the line. Then, he skated with his brother François and the rest of the Canadian Relay Team to win again in under 30-minutes becoming the only Canadian athlete to claim two gold medals on home ice. It was a race that even the Prime Minister called the most exciting event of the Olympics. Double Olympic silver medalist Marianne St-Gelais, Charles’ girlfriend (at the time), added to the emotion with a post-victory kiss that became one of the most memorable, instant-classic moments of the Games. In Sochi 2014, Charles added to his impressive collection of Olymipc gold medals and rinkside kisses from St-Gelais, winning the 1500m with a beautiful pass on rival Viktor An of Russia. Then, some good news for Canada. After some deliberation with coaches and his family, Charles announced that he'll be skating for four more years on the Strombo Show because he "still likes the burn in his legs." In Pyeonchang 2018, he'll look to become the most decorated Olympian in Canada's history.

However, the general trends or patterns of adaptation are identified by physiological research, and guidelines are clearly delineated of the various adaptation processes, such as adaptation to muscular endurance or maximum strength.

A Rövidpályás Gyorskorcsolyázás Hazai Története
A RÖVIDPÁLYÁS GYORSKORCSOLYÁZÁS HAZAI TÖRTÉNETE Bevezetés A rövidpályás gyorskorcsolyázás, közismert megnevezéssel a short track első hivatalos világ- bajnokságát 1978-ban rendezték az angliai Solihullban, majd 1988-ban Calgaryban, a Téli Olimpiai Játékokon szerepelt bemutató versenyszámként. A következő olimpián, 1992-ben: Albertville-ben már teljes jogú sportágként szerepelt az olimpiai programban, s ahol már magyar versenyzők (Kaszala Tamara és Kun Bálint Tibor) is rajthoz álltak. Azonban micsoda fejlődésen ment keresztül ez a sportág. Hiszen, ha a sportág első világbajnokságán az 500 méteres döntő eredményeit és a 2016. évi világbajnokság döntőjét összehasonlítjuk, akkor láthatóvá válik ez az óriási fejlődés: 1978 2016 1. Alan Rattray (USA) 47.090 1. Liu Shaolin Sándor (HUN) 41.485 2. Harry Spragg (GBR) 47.420 2. Dajing Wu (CHN) 41.550 3. Jim Lynch (AUS) 47.610 3. Liu Shaoang (HUN) 41.994 4. Hirosi Toda (JPN) 1:02.270 4. Yi Ra Seo (KOR) 42.157 Ezzel összegezhetnénk a rövidpályás gyorskorcsolyázás szenzációs karrierjét a nemzetközi porondon és Magyarországon is. Idehaza 1985-től számoljuk a short track-es "időszámítást", amikor a Magyar Jégsport Szövetség megbízta Martos Györgyöt, a legsikeresebb és legered- ményesebb volt nagypályás gyorskorcsolyázót - tizenötszörös magyar bajnokunkat - az új szakág megszervezésével. Ezek után a rövidpályás gyorskorcsolyázás hazai fejlődését ugyancsak "szenzációs"-nak kell titulálnunk a nemzetközi short track élethez viszonyítva. Hiszen a semmiből született meg az új szakág, először a budapesti iskolás-sportra építve, majd egyre jobban bevonva a vidék dinamikusan fejlődő korcsolyasportját. Vagyis Martos György a volt nagypályás gyorskorcsolyázókkal karöltve kitűnő munkát végzett. Magyar Bajnokságot a rövidpályás gyorskorcsolyázásban csak 1989-ben bonyolították le először, mert ezt megelőzően bár 1986-tól több verseny volt, de ezek közül egyik sem volt a sportág bajnoksága.

The action-packed day includes the Ladies’ 500m qualifying heats (final on February 13) and the Ladies’ 3000m Relay qualifying heats (final on February 20) but the highlight of the day will be the Men’s 1500m final. World Record holder Knegt will battle it out with home favorites In order to reach the final, skaters have to go through the qualifying heats of the 1500m. 1500m World Record holder Sjinkie Knegt (NED) will attempt to become the first Dutch Short Track Speed Skater to win an Olympic gold medal in this sport. When asked about his goals in PyeongChang 2018 Knegt commented: “Four gold medals is maybe a little bit too high, but I know the competitions are is hard. If I'm four times on the podium I should be OK with it. But of course, I'm hoping and I'm going for (at least) one gold medal." Knegt will face tough competition from a strong Korean squad, who will be competing on home ice. Hwang Dae Heon (KOR) is in top form this season, having won most 1500m races he competed in, putting him first in the World Cup ranking in this distance.

A Fictitious Study on How to Have Your Isbs 200X Paper Accepted
VIRTUAL RECONSTRUCTION KINEMATICS ON THE START ACTION OF ELITE MALE SHORT TRACK SPEED SKATERS UNDER NEW RULES: A COMPARISON ANALYSIS Jihe Zhou1, Shuai Wang2 Chengdu Sport Institute, Chengdu, China1,2 Short track speed skating has been a traditional advantage project of China. In the 500m competition of short track speed skating, occupying a good position in the starting phase has an important influence on the whole process of the competition, which can make the athlete enter the corner in advance and thus successfully complete the acceleration phase. The International Skating Union (ISU) changed the rules of the start action, and various starting actions emerged. The athlete of National Short Track Speed Skating Team named Wu Dajing (Champion of Men’s 500m in 2016/17 Season) changed his technique of start action; he is the only one who use lateral type start action in National Team. This paper used the three-dimensional video analysis method to analyze kinematic parameters of the start action of Wu Dajing and Canadian athlete Charles Hamelin (who has been using the lateral starting action) at the 500m competition of 2016/17 ISU World Cup in Shanghai. The technical parameters of the start action of Wu Dajing (center of gravity, trunk angle, pedal ice angle, lower limb joint angle, etc.) were better than Charles which shows he has a good learning ability of the new technology. It is recommended in training he should focus on improving the stability of start action. KEYWORDS: shock-track speed skating; starting action; visual reality. INTRODUCTION: 3D Virtual Reality is a comprehensive technology integrating computer, image recognition, graphics and other disciplines.

ISU World Cup Short Track Speed Skating Rolls Into Montréal This Weekend - and Canada’S Fans of the Sport Have a Lot to Look Forward To
November 6, 2019 Montréal, Canada Canadians look to dominate on home ice The ISU World Cup Short Track Speed Skating rolls into Montréal this weekend - and Canada’s fans of the sport have a lot to look forward to. Local girl Kim Boutin is in the form of her life. The 24-year-old secured six gold medals at the Canadian Nationals in September and obliterated the 500m World Record last weekend with the first Ladies’ sub 42-second skate at Salt Lake City’s Utah Olympic Oval. The next step for Boutin is to try to skate her way to become the No.1 Ladies’ Short Track Speed Skating athlete – a tough ask, with the likes of Suzanne Schulting (NED) and Choi Min Jeong (KOR) on the circuit. Boutin has already changed her training methods to try to achieve this dream. On home ice this weekend will be a great time to show that she means business. Boutin also won the 1500m gold in Salt Lake City, ahead of ISU World Short Track Speed Skating Champion Schulting, and added Relay bronze – ably supported by her Canada team-mates Claudia Gagnon, Danae Blais and Alyson Charles. Canada’s Men will almost certainly be in contention this weekend, too. In Charles Hamelin they have a legendary racer who can still threaten podiums, while 22-year-old Steven Dubois looks like the country’s future. Dubois, like Boutin, took six golds at the Canadian Short Track Speed Skating Championships, and should feel confident rolling that form into Montréal’s Maurice-Richard arena.
