Abstract

The Purpose of the Research is to study the mechanisms for improving the male and female athletes` special strike training for mixed martial arts at the pre-competition mesocycles under the conditions of different strength training programs. Methods of the Research. 44 athletes who were divided into 4 groups took part in the study. The representatives of the examined group used strength training loads of different structure and direction. Using the method of control testing of special strike training, the number of accurate kicks for 30 s to a moving and non-moving manikin was determined among male and female athletes. The Research Results. It was found that the greatest increasing the indicator of special strike training by 103,7 % (р<0,002) was recorded during the performance of the strike with a turn for the target exercise. The smallest positive dynamics by 78,7 % (р<0,002) was found for athletes of B group during a side kick for the target exercise. During the exercise of number of accurate kicks for 30 s to a moving manikin it was found that the controlled indicator for male athletes of B group was 67,6 % lower compared to the results of A group. Comparison of the control results of the female athletes of C and D groups has demonstrated that at the end of the pre- competitive mesocycle, the difference between the indicator of female athletes` accurate number of kicks for 30 s to a moving manikin was 20,7 %, and at the beginning of the research, this difference was 43,6 %. At the end of the pre- competition mesocycle, the difference between the parameters of the indicator the number of accurate kicks for 30 s to a none-moving manikin by the athletes of C and D groups was 7,9 %, when at the beginning of the research this difference was 56,6 %. Findings. It was determined that under the conditions of using isolated exercises during strength training, which make it possible to maximally and simultaneously selectively load individual muscle groups, the stress of adaptation and compensatory mechanisms increases, which leads to arising the indicators of special strike MMA training.
