Adaptive swimming training over 6 weeks significantly improved the integral indicator of emotional state by 1.15 points (p≤0.001) and reduced 100m swim time by 51 seconds (p≤0.001).

Does adaptive swimming training improve psycho-emotional and functional states in male service members with musculoskeletal injuries?
Adaptive swimming training over 6 weeks significantly improves psycho-emotional state and functional capacity in male service members with musculoskeletal injuries.
p-value: p=≤0.001
OBJECTIVE: Aim: To investigate the impact of adaptive swimming training sessions on the psycho-emotional and functional state of individuals with musculoskeletal disorders. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and Methods: The research was conducted in 2025, with 32 male service members aged 26-58 who underwent rehabilitation for musculoskeletal injuries over 6 weeks. The research used a combination of theoretical, empirical, and mathematical statistical methods. The psycho-emotional state was assessed using the Wessman-Ricks technique, and the functional state was assessed using a 100 m swimming test and the duration of heart rate recovery after exercise. RESULTS: Results: Data analysis showed that adaptive swimming training sessions have a pronounced rehabilitative effect: they normalize the psycho-emotional state, reduce stress levels, and increase the body's adaptive capabilities. The integral indicator of emotional state after 6 weeks of training increased by 1.15 points (p≤0.001) and reached a good level, reflecting the restoration of emotional balance. Functional indicators also improved: the time to cover a distance of 100 meters was reduced by 51 seconds (p≤0.001); the duration of heart rate recovery was reduced by 3.65 beats per minute (p≤0.001). CONCLUSION: Conclusions: It has been established that adaptive swimming training sessions contribute to improving the psycho-emotional state and functional capabilities of individuals with musculoskeletal disorders. A significant improvement in the integral indicators of the cardiovascular system's emotional and functional states has been observed.
Prontenko et al. (Thu,) conducted a observational in Musculoskeletal disorders (n=32). Adaptive swimming training sessions was evaluated on Psycho-emotional state (Wessman-Ricks technique) and functional state (100 m swimming test and heart rate recovery duration) (p=≤0.001). Adaptive swimming training over 6 weeks significantly improved the integral indicator of emotional state by 1.15 points (p≤0.001) and reduced 100m swim time by 51 seconds (p≤0.001).
