The analysis of coordination training means used in the training of wrestlers

Journal Title: Journal of Combat Sports and Martial Arts - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

[b]Introduction. [/b]The aim of the study was to assess coordination training means used in a 6-month training cycle of wrestlers. [b]Material and methods.[/b] Thirty-two male Greco-Roman wrestlers from the sports school SMS in Radom were included in the study. They were 16-19 years of age and their average training experience was 4.5 years. The assessment of coordination training means was made on the basis of training observation. Thirty training sessions were analysed, including 20 pre-season and 10 in-season sessions. The investigation included the volume of coordination training in a 6-month training cycle, the type of coordination ability trained, the direction of impact, complexity and relative intensity. [b]Results.[/b] Coordination training took up 27% of overall training time in the cycle under examination. The most amount of time was spent improving movement rhythm (20-30%), movement adaptability (15-20%) and movement coupling (15-20%), while the least amount of time was devoted to kinesthetic differentiation (5%), spatio-temporal orientation (10%) and quick reaction (10%). The means of the highest intensity and coordination complexity took up the least amount of time. As the means shifted from general to special, they became more difficult. Relative intensity of training means increased together with an increase in their coordination complexity and the direction of their impact. [b]Conclusions.[/b] Further research should focus on verifying and classifying coordination training loads applied in wrestling. In the training process of wrestlers particular attention should be paid to coordination training that involves developing predominant CMAs with intensity and complexity that would be proper for this sport.
