Abstract

A goal is to investigate the influence of the method of low-volume high-intensity training on the indicators of speed and strength abilities in young swimmers of high skill level. The following research methods were used: testing the level of special speed-strength qualities in the water with the help of equipment that allows underwater video recording, the parameters of the level of special speed-strength qualities in the water were recorded. The obtained results of the study allowed us to note an increase in the level of overall speed and strength qualities, the upper shoulder girdle power increased by 16.80% and speed increased by 13.48% in the experimental group. The increase in the speed and strength qualities of the shoulder girdle muscles was: power by 23.40% and speed by 21.17%. Increase in the level of speed and strength qualities of the lower extremities: power by 10.99% and speed by 2.74%. Evaluation by independent experts showed that the application of the method of low-volume high-intensity training also affects the basic swimming skills of students (technical elements of the chosen method swimming, development of general physical qualities of a swimmer; rational structure of swimming technique in the chosen way, the strength of the stroke; stability and variability of swimming technique, development special speed-strength endurance of a swimmer). The indicators improved by an average of 0.6 points.

Keywords: high-intensity training; methods of improving speed and strength qualities; swimming; young swimmers.
