Abstract

Adaptation to intense muscle activity leads to an increase in athletic performance. The task is not to bring an

athlete to the stage of failure of adaptation mechanisms during training, which is accompanied by a drop in

performance and other negative consequences, hence the need to have accessible and informative markers of

the athlete’s body condition in order to correct the training process. The study was conducted at the Olympic

Training Center (OTC), city of Karaganda. The participants were athletes without health complaints. To determine

the physical performance of athletes, a submaximal PWC 170 test was used, and the MOC was calculated

by an indirect method. Based on the measurement of the main indicators of the cardiovascular system

(HR, SBP, DBP) and the calculation of derivative indices (PP, SBV, MCV, DP, KEC) adopted in sports medicine

and adaptology (ShI, IFC), a comparative analysis of the adaptation of the body of high-class athletes

(46 people) to training in different energy modes (aerobic, anaerobic-aerobic, anaerobic) was performed. The

study showed differences in the adaptation indicators of the cardiovascular system of the athletes depending

on the energy mode of training and gender. Measurement and subsequent calculation of accessible and informative

indicators of adaptation of the cardiovascular system of the athlete’s body to training loads in different

energy modes allows not only to monitor its current state, but also to identify the stress preceding the

breakdown of adaptation mechanisms.
