Individualization of Short Distance Runners Training based on Analysis of Specific Preparedness

Abstract

High-intensity training load in the training of short distance runners require consideration of individual features of components of their specific preparedness. The assessment of different aspects in advances sprint performers (males, age 19.9±2.1 years; the level of sports results: 60 m running -6.8-7.1 s; 200 m running-21.0-23.0 s) through tests is under consideration. Methods: Wingate test, Tapping test, simple sensomotor reaction, 30 m running with out of blocks start, 30 m running on the move, maximum and repeated jump test. Results: Peak power, explosive power, strength endurance, speed performance and psycho physiological factors important in sprint: latent time of reaction, taps frequency, nervous system type, leg muscles composition were defined in the research. Obtained individual athlete characteristics highlight the significant differences in the structure of athletes' specific preparedness. Individual post-test recommendations were suggested.
