The dynamic characteristics of sprinting on a curve in an indoor arena are largely determined by the differences in centrifugal force on various lanes and their configuration. The purpose of the study is to develop predictive models of the dynamic characteristics of the stance phases during sprinting on different lanes of the curved track in an indoor athletics arena. Research methods and organization. To achieve the objective, a set of research methods was selected: analysis of scientific and methodological literature; pedagogical observation; anthropometry; optical registration of technique parameters; tensometry (in-shoe pressure measurement system "Tekscan"); modeling; methods of mathematical statistics. In the diagnostic experiment conducted during the preparation period for athletics competitions (December 2024) at the Athletic Arena sports complex in St. Petersburg, six highly qualified sprinters specializing in the 200 m and 400 m events participated. Research results and conclusions. During the study, multifactorial regression models were developed that allow for predicting the pressure force on the support during sprinting on curves on various tracks of an athletic indoor arena, taking into account the athletes' anthropometry.
