Optimal Physical Training During Military Basic Training Period

Military-applied sports are effective means of physical, moral and psychological training of servicemen for combat activities. A single universal program for training cadets by means of military pentathlon is not described in the special literature. The goal is to summarize the experience of building the training process in military all-around in military universities. 40 coaches of national teams in military pentathlon of 7 universities of Ukraine were surveyed. Results. Physical training of cadets by means of military pentathlon contributes to the formation of their professionalism - it improves applied skills, physical and functional readiness for combat operations. Sports result in military pentathlon to the greatest extent depends on the level of development of athletes' aerobic and speed-power endurance, as well as speed-power qualities. Most often, an obstacle course and throwing are combined in one workout. Regardless of the training period, most of the time is devoted to cross training. Conclusions. The opinions of the coaches on the key issues of building the training process differ significantly, which means that there is no single training methodology for military pentathletes in the universities of Ukraine. Research on the establishment of a scientifically grounded ratio of training volumes of military pentathletes is urgent.

The purpose of the research is to substantiate scientifically the structure and content of tourists’ physical training at the stage of preliminary basic training. Material and methods . The study involved athletes aged 12-13 years. The control and experimental groups consist of 32 young men in each group. Results . It was developed and experimentally substantiated the structure and content of athletes-tourists’ physical training. It was determined the content and volumes of physical training types (general, special and additional). It was developed the complexes of training exercises with a rational correlation of general and additional physical training means. The ratio of the main types of training was as follows: general physical training - 35%, special - 15% and additional - 50%. Conclusions . The rock climbing and slacklining were offered for the preparatory period as the means of additional physical training. These means are based on the structure of motor activity and preferential orientation focused on the development of coordination, power, speed and speed-power qualities.

Long Term Experiment

Research background and hypothesis. Training models in athlete training have already been determined by sport researchers (Hellard et al., 2006. The programme that has been developed and tested by one alternative experiment is targeted to optimize the purposeful technical training for 8–17-year-old ice hockey players. Research aim was to determine technical training models.Research methods. A long-term experiment of one alternative was carried out involving subjects from 8 to 18 years in 2000–2010. The programmes for technical training were developed with regard to the time ratio, measures taken and recommendations of foreign experts. Later the programmes have been adjusted to the results obtained. The following tests have been used for evaluation of the skating technique: to evaluate specific skills – forward and backward skating; to evaluate the puck control – manoeuvre skating driving the puck and without the puck. Research results. Analysis of the results in the initial training period shows that the greatest improvement in the results has been registered in manoeuvre skating driving the puck – 11.6%, and in backward skating – about 8%. A significant improvement in the results of the basic training period has been observed in backward skating – 7% as well as in 30 m standing skating – 6.3%. In the special training period a more marked increase in the results has been registered in backward skating – 5.2% as well as in 30 m standing skating – 3.8%. Discussion and conclusions. This is due to the lack of special skills and a complex biomechanical structure of the performance of the technical action. Sport performance was influenced by adolescent developmental patterns, and the optimal adjustment of the programme, taking into account the initial and basic training period analysis.Results of the present research allow us to conclude that 1) Athletes’ training programmes, taking into account the recommendations, were effective. 2) The greatest improvement in the results was registered within the 1 st and 2 nd stages of athletes’ training. We believe that this is due to a complex biomechanical structure of the performance of the technical action. After the improvement, the growth of the results slows down. 3) Time ratio for technical training is distributed in the following way: 1st stage – 55–53%, 2nd stage – 50–48% and 3rd stage – 47–44%.Keywords: technical training, manoeuvre skating, experimental programme, optimization of training, training model.

Military Basic Training

Like other congregate living settings, military basic training has been subject to outbreaks of COVID-19. We sought to identify improved strategies for preventing outbreaks in this setting using an agent-based model of a hypothetical cohort of trainees on a U.S. Army post. Our analysis revealed unique aspects of basic training that require customized approaches to outbreak prevention, which draws attention to the possibility that customized approaches may be necessary in other settings, too. In particular, we showed that introductions by trainers and support staff may be a major vulnerability, given that those individuals remain at risk of community exposure throughout the training period. We also found that increased testing of trainees upon arrival could actually increase the risk of outbreaks, given the potential for false-positive test results to lead to susceptible individuals becoming infected in group isolation and seeding outbreaks in training units upon release. Until an effective transmission-blocking vaccine is adopted at high coverage by individuals involved with basic training, need will persist for non-pharmaceutical interventions to prevent outbreaks in military basic training. Ongoing uncertainties about virus variants and breakthrough infections necessitate continued vigilance in this setting, even as vaccination coverage increases.
