Modern technology for training qualified runners for medium distances (800, 1500 m)

Abstract

The athletic result in middle-distance running is ensured by a combination of the body's functional capabilities (general and special endurance), speed and strength qualities, and stable running technique. Therefore, there is a need to develop training microcycles that affect the fundamental training of middle-distance runners in the autumn-winter preparatory and winter competitive period, taking into account the development and maintenance of the necessary components of physical qualities, which in turn will be the foundation for the realization of these abilities during the winter competitive period. When running exercises were performed, the instrumental method of radio telemetry was used. Thanks to this instrumental method, we were able to check whether middle-distance runners at the stage of specialized basic training can perform loads with a certain intensity (maintain a given speed, number of series, number of times, and whether they have time to recover in a certain period of time). This method helped in the development of model weekly training microcycles of middle-distance runners, thanks to the assessment of the physiological training curve, determination of heart rate in the morning at rest, during warm-up, during exercise, during rest between repetitions or series, heart rate after training. The method allows you to correctly choose exercises for a specific day of the week, determine the nature of the load and the number of these exercises and series. Thus, we developed 7 model microcycles at different stages of the autumn-winter preparatory and winter competition period.
