EFFECTS OF THE SPECIFIC MOTOR EXERCISES ON THE BASIC MOTOR STATUS OF JUDOKAS

When dealing with the contents of the training process of judokas, we keep in mind the totality of different forms of preparation: technical, tactical, physical and psychological. All the forms have a common goal, and that is to achieve an overall readiness which guarantees successful learning of a technique, as well as successful competition. One of the basic conditions for achieving success in a competition is establishment of a high level of physical preparation. The concept of physical preparation assumes a high level of coordination between motor abilities (speed, strength, agility, suppleness, balance), which is a prime condition of achieving top performance in judo. General physical preparation is the first step in preparation of a sportsman. It is defined by most authors as a base aimed at the development and mastery of basic motor abilities, habits and knowledge with the task to prepare an organism of a sportsman for a specific form of load to be expected in a specific sport. A high level of general physical preparation enables maximum demonstration of physical abilities of a sportsman during the development of specific motor abilities. By means of a good general preparation, a sportsman can enhance functional limits in order to endure high loads easier, which altogether leads to consecutive top performance achievement. The means of general physical preparation include the following exercises: exercise for a comprehensive motor development and consolidation of elementary motor habits (walking, running, elementary games, sports games, swimming, skiing, gymnastics, loadbearing exercises, etc.). This paper analyses the effects of specific motor exercises on the basic motor status of judokas

Comparative analysis of two different methods of anaerobic capacity assessment in sedentary young men

Background/Aim. The Wingate anaerobic test is a valid and reliable method of measuring anaerobic capacity. The aim of this study was to determine whether other modified test can be used instead of the Wingate test. Methods. A group of 30 sedentary young men were first tested with a cycle ergometer (classic Wingate test), and then with a dynamometer during 30 s of 'all out' leg extension exercise (modified Wingate test; WAnTe) in order to test anaerobic capacity. Subsequent correlations between these tests were made. Results. Peak power, mean power on cycling ergometer in absolute and relative values were 463 ± 105 W, 316.7 ± 63.8 W, 5.68 ± 1.17 W/kg, 3.68 ± 0.78 W/kg, respectively. On a dynamometer absolute and relative values of maximal and mean load in kg and power in Watts were 136.54 ± 21.3 kg, 1.67 ± 0.26; 128.65 ± 19.93 kg, 1.57 ± 0.24 kg, 657 ± 125.87 W, and 8 ± 1.54 W/kg, respectively. There was no correlation between 5 s intervals of the classic Wingate test and WAnTe during the first, fourth and fifth intervals, but in the second (r = 0.49, p < 0.05), third (r = 0.38, p < 0.05) and last 5 s intervals (r = 0.39, p < 0.05), and also in peak power and mean power (r = 0.42, p < 0.05 and r = 0.45, p < 0.05 respectively), a significant positive correlation was detected. Conclusion. A modified Wingate test of leg extension on a dynamometer in sedentary young men shows a correlation with the classic Wingate test only in parameters of peak power, and mean power and the second, the third and the last 5 s intervals. Because of that it should only be used for orientation, whereas for precise measurements of anaerobic capacity the classic Wingate test should be used
