THE INTEGRATION OF STATODYNAMIC EXERCISE TECHNIQUES WITHIN THE ANNUAL TRAINING CYCLE OF 15–16-YEAR-OLD SPRINT SWIMMERS

Abstract

The objective of this study is to substantiate the use of statodynamic exercise techniques within the specialized physical and technical training regimen of 15–16 year-old sprint swimmers during the preparatory phase of the annual macrocycle. Materials and methods. The study was conducted with sprint swimmers aged 15–16 years, focusing on front crawl, who are students at the Olympic reserve swimming sports school (Yunika, Chelyabinsk). The experimental group underwent specialized physical and technical training at specific stages of the preparatory phase of the annual macrocycle, utilizing sets of statodynamic exercises. The research employed pedagogical testing, formative experimentation, and statistical analysis methods. Results. The experiment yielded reliable data on the physical and technical readiness indicators of the 15–16 year-old sprint swimmers. These findings provide a basis for practical application in the training process for crawl swimmers specializing in sprint swimming. Conclusion. The study concludes that the integration of statodynamic exercise techniques at certain stages of the preparatory phase of the annual macrocycle positively impacts the physical and technical readiness of 15–16 year-old sprint swimmers, leading to enhanced performance outcomes.
