Improving the technical and tactical characteristics of elite wrestlers

Abstract

Background and Study: Technical and tactical actions in wrestling have different approaches to the implementation of the athlete's competitive activity. However, in practice, we can see that the use of scientific research to improve the technical and tactical actions of elite wrestlers is not used enough. Purpose: to explore the technical and tactical performance of elite wrestlers. Material and methods: A total of 96 elite wrestlers aged 21-28 practicing Greco-Roman and freestyle wrestling were examined. All athletes were divided into two groups: control (n=48) and experimental (n=48). Results: The obtained results showed that when using the program for improving technical and tactical movements in elite wrestlers, the indicators of throws improved by an average of 13% (p<0.05). In addition, throws with a back bend, shoulder and backbend increased by an average of 11% (p<0.05). Some technical throws improved by about 12% (p<0.05). Analysis showed improvements in decision-making and movement skills in elite wrestlers in competitive wrestling. The obtained results show a decrease in the duration of the implementation of special wrestling skills in real conditions. The study of technical readiness revealed that a decrease in the time of implementation of special wrestling skills in elite wrestler’s competitions leads to a faster implementation of throws. Conclusions: The proposed approach to improving technical and tactical correction leads to an improvement in the ability to make decisions and implement motor skills among elite wrestlers in competitive fight.
