Materials and methods: the study involved an athlete with hearing impairments, engaged in karate - Deaflympic champion in 2013 and 2017. In the training process, the athlete used high-intensity competitive exercises against the background of fatigue, at the end of the training session. To determine the effectiveness of the program in the study used a number of psychophysiological indicators, such as: work efficiency, mental stability, time of simple reaction to light, reaction to a moving object, tapping test, reaction time of choice, Romberg test, concentration and switching of attention. The number of blows in different parts of the match was also investigated.Results: significant improvement of results was observed in the indicator of mental stability (t = 2.02; p 0.05). Conclusions: there was an improvement in the performance of the athlete when performing offensive actions during the second and third 40 seconds of the fight. This indicates the development of special endurance and increased efficiency against the background of fatigue.
