Analysis reveals that pollution significantly reduces physical performance in athletes from Karakalpakstan, suggesting a need for ecological rehabilitation.
This study explores how Karakalpakstan’s deteriorating ecological environment affects the physical development of athletes. It provides a comparative analysis between athletes from ecologically challenged regions and those from cleaner areas, focusing on endurance, strength, flexibility, agility, and speed. Using empirical data, standard athletic tests, and statistical analysis, the study confirms that athletes exposed to chronic pollution, soil salinity, and airborne toxins show significant declines in key physical performance indicators. These results have implications for sports science, public health policy, and ecological rehabilitation strategies.
