Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
The purpose of the study is the experimental justification and development of a program aimed at enhancing the strength and conditioning readiness for fights among professional MMA athletes. Organization of the research. 24 professional mixed martial arts fighters underwent two different strength and conditioning training programs over a period of 12 weeks. Research results. It was established that the strength and conditioning training of professional mixed martial arts athletes is divided into two blocks – the off-season (preparatory period) and the training camp (competitive period). The application of the experimental program on professional mixed martial arts fighters revealed a significant impact on indicators of strength endurance and maximum strength. Conclusions. A positive correlation was established between the characteristics of strength and conditioning preparedness and the technical-tactical indicators of the fighters. The effectiveness of technical-tactical actions increased by 27.1%, and the reliability of defensive actions increased by 13.6%.
