Why the study?
The study aimed to determine indicators of aerobic energy supply affecting functional capabilities, sports results, and physical training during an annual program using a block training approach in rowers at the basic training stage.
Does a block approach to training improve aerobic energy supply indicators in adolescent male rowers?
Does a block approach to training improve aerobic energy supply indicators in adolescent male rowers?
A block approach to training with double periodization significantly improves aerobic capacity and functional respiratory parameters in adolescent rowers compared to standard training.
Aerobic indicators may support differentiated monitoring in rowers; leaves open validation for performance gains in prospective studies.
Stage of specialized basic training allows you to form a reserve of functional and physical training of rowers for the transition to the stage of higher achievements. The use of modern technologies and non-invasive methods creates conditions for quality monitoring of physical training and functional capabilities at the stage of basic training and more differentiated planning of the training process. The purpose of the study was to determine indicators of aerobic energy supply, which affect the functional capabilities of athletes and improve sports results and physical training in the process of annual program training using a block approach to the training process of rowers at the stage of basic training. They took part in the study 43 male athletes athletes (among them 14 with the first adult rank and 8 candidates for masters of sports) of the Youth Sports School of Water Sports in Ternopil, aged 14–16 years, who were divided into 2 comparable groups: control group (CG) (n=21) and experimental group (EG) (n=22). CG athletes trained according to the educational and training program. The training of EG rowers was carried out using a block approach to training. Monitoring of indicators of aerobic energy supply among which was the indicator of maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) was carried out in three stages: 1st stage – September 2023, 2nd stage – March–April 2024, and 3rd stage – September 2024. As a result of the study, a better increase in indicators of aerobic energy supply, in particular the Cooper test by 3.68%, VO2max by 5.14%, VO2max GARMIN by 3.65%, functional state of the respiratory system according to the vital capacity of the lungs, by 5.35 % in the experimental group compared to the control group.
