CHARACTERISTICS OF THE FUNCTIONAL CAPABILITIES OF NATIONAL COMPETITORS IN GRECO-ROMAN WRESTLING AFTER SPECIALIZED TRAINING – PRE-COMPETITION MODELED WRESTLINGS

Abstract

Winning medals by our wrestlers of the international Championships is of great importance for the Bulgarian school and the high esteem of Bulgarian sport. In recent years, intensive interval-variable training, modelled wrestling that simulate a competition, has been included in the contest period of our wrestlers' preparation. Purpose: Our goal is to construct a high-intensity modelled training (wrestling) suitable for the functional preparation before a competition and to determine their biochemical and physiological load characteristics by measuring heart rate and lactate concentration in the peripheral blood. Methods: The study involved five medallists in Greco-Roman wrestling in the last European and World Championships, who in six modelled rounds with tasks and with elements of wrestling and tactical ideas showed the following results: - Heart rate varied after each round with values exceeding182 bpm, and at breaks dropped to 89 bpm; - The concentration of lactate in the blood was also high in each session between the first and the second match. Conclusions: In conclusion, the intensity of this constructed model of modelled training is very high, compared to the values reported in the competitive conditions of the international tournament “Nikola Petrov” values of the concentration of lactate in the blood.
