FUNCTIONAL PREPARATION OF MIDDLE-DISTANCE ATHLETES

Abstract

This article examines the experiences of leading scientists in the development of functional training for middle-distance runners. The results of functional tests are given according to the functional state of middle-distance runners. Necessary recommendations are given for the structure of the functional training of runners. Middle-distance runners were tested for leg strength, speed, breathing and exhalation rate, body response to specific loads, heart rate, and step length, and the results were discussed
