Abstract

Objective of the study is the theoretical substantiation of a comprehensive methodology of the directed development of the speed-strength abilities, special endurance, strength and flexibility of qualified runners within the framework of the annual cycle. Methods and structure of the study. An analysis of the scientific-methodological literature, the systematisation of approaches to the periodisation of loads and the identification of the optimal means of developing the leading qualities were carried out. The analysis of the sources showed that in highly qualified athletes the limiting factors are special endurance and the economy of running. The main approaches are based on the principles of wave-like periodisation. The methodology is built on the integration of the means of running preparation, speed-strength exercises, plyometrics and gymnastic complexes. The theoretical generalisation made it possible to determine the rational distribution of loads: the predominance of aerobic work in the preparatory period with a gradual increase in the share of high-intensity means in the pre-competition cycle. Attention is paid to the individualisation of the influences taking into account the morphofunctional features of the athletes and to the control of the organism's recovery. The mechanisms of adaptation to combined loads and the influence of strength training on the power of push-off are considered. Results and conclusions. The results confirm the effectiveness of the integral approach, in which the development of physical qualities is carried out in close interrelation with the perfection of technique. The necessity of observing the principles of variability and of the correspondence of loads to the level of preparedness is substantiated. It is proposed to use the indicated ratios of the volumes and intensity of loads with obligatory monitoring of the condition.
