PERSONALIZED APPROACH TO IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND PSYCHOPHYSICAL READINESS OF WEIGHTLIFTERS THROUGH THE CORRECTION OF SENSORY AND VASOMOTOR DISORDERS OF ENT ORGANS

Abstract

The paper aims to improve psychophysical readiness to athletic achievements among weightlifters (kettlebell lifting) based on the analysis of the effect of sensory and vasomotor disorders of ENT organs on the quality of life. Materials and methods. Researchers from different departments of four educational institutions performed the assessment of the quality of life and psychophysical readiness to athletic achievements among weightlifters. The study involved 24 weightlifters from St. Petersburg and 7 weightlifters from Chelyabinsk (14 Masters of Sports, 8 Candidates for Master of Sports, 9 athletes of the 1^st category with 5–12 years of sports experience). The following methods were used for the study: the SF-36 health survey questionnaire, the identification of personal anxiety and emotional burnout. Physical examination revealed sensory and vasomotor disorders, which were treated surgically or medically or with the help of physical exercises. The results obtained provided data about the effectiveness of these measures and allowed to develop personalized recommendations for athletes. Results. Sensory and vasomotor disorders are often observed as a result of heavy physical exertion associated with muscle tension (both static and dynamic). If the first alarming symptoms are ignored, the disease progresses and affects both the quality of life and motivation for training. A personalized approach to each athlete with the correction of the abovementioned disorders improves athletic performance. Conclusion. The assessment of personal anxiety, mental state and emotional burnout with subjective methods is an important aspect of special and general physical training. Moreover, the objective methods for identifying and correcting sensory and vasomotor changes contribute to the selection of athletes and allow to monitor the dynamics of psychophysical and physiological parameters that affect athletic performance.
