ABSTRACT
Introduction
Physical training is a well-known training method in competitive sports. However, in the majority of the physical training classes, the focus is still on the traditional exercises of physical conditioning as strength, speed, resistance, etc., directed for young athletes that are in the growth and development phase, without a literary base to assure actual effectiveness in the load increases for the athletic performance facing the risks in the athletes’ physical proprioception.
Objective
Explores the effect of functional training on the physical sensibility of sports athletes.
Methods
The data collection method is used in the daily training of six notable athletes in a district sports school: judo, martial arts, wrestling, tennis team, swimming team, and table tennis team, adding the functional training protocol in body movement.
Results
The average performance of the groups before and after the experiment was collected and confronted, the difference test was performed, and the test result found P>0.05. The athletes in the experimental group not only improved the footwork speed and physical coordination, the movement speed of the footwork and the speed of the connection between movements increased significantly in the sixth week, reflecting more excellent stability and motor coordination in the movements. Proprioception is one of the essential sports qualities of the human body; it is directly related to physical qualities such as speed and strength and is also closely related to the different neural pathways.
Conclusion
Functional training can improve athletes’ physical flexibility and motor coordination; it can also stimulate body proprioceptors, increase athletes’ confidence, and make training more efficient and effective. Evidence level II; Therapeutic Studies - Investigating the results.
