First of all, the reduction of Olympic events.
If you have been paying attention to the Olympic Games, you will notice that since 2002, the trend of the Olympic Games is not to increase the number of events indefinitely, but to reduce the number of events. Before 2002, new events entered the Olympic Games almost every year, but after 2002, the Olympic Organizing Committee began to reduce the number of Olympic events and announced that the number of Olympic events must be controlled at 20 1.
Second, the ornamental value is too low.
Even if there are some competitions in the Olympic Games, you don't seem to like them, such as weightlifting, but there are still many people you like. The three major fitness events, except the hard pull, the other two, bench press and squat, are really low in appreciation and may require a lot of judges. In addition, with all kinds of security assistants, if there is an audience at the scene, you may not see what is being compared, and it is really difficult to succeed and fail.
Third, the competitiveness is too low.
In fact, the competitiveness of all sports in fitness is relatively low. We like to see athletes make extraordinary achievements and become the dark horse of the Olympic Games, just like Liu Xiang in those days. However, if the three major fitness events really want to compete, in fact, the level of each fitness tycoon has been set. Basically, you can know who is the champion and runner-up by looking at the name, and high-level athletes basically know everyone's true level. There is little suspense in the result of the competition, and this thing can't be said to pay attention to any tactics, such as changing the weight in the weightlifting competition, and there are no tactics available in the three major fitness events.
There is no guarantee that many people will participate in the Olympic events, but they must be ornamental and competitive, otherwise why not have a big eating contest.
What do you think is the most difficult event in the Olympic Games?
