Abstract

Improving the training program for preparing cyclists for competitions, focusing on the amount of physical activity qualities separately.
The purpose of the study: theoretical substantiation and experimental improvement of the competitive period of training cyclists in cross country.
Research methods. When conducting research, the following methods were used:theoretical analysis of literary sources. sociological research methods; pedagogical research methods; methods of mathematical statistics.
The research was conducted on the basis of the Youth Sports School “Buryvestnik” in Chernivtsi from
December 2021 to November 2022. 20 students participated in the study athletes of high sports qualification, including 8 masters of sports, 6 candidates for the master of sports and 6 athletes of the first category.
We have improved the training program cyclists before the competition, focusing on the volume of physical activity qualities separately, while in the traditional program the total percentage is indicated.
For the correct organization of training work, the possibilities of calendars of all levels are used. In case of insufficient number of competitions, control competitions are specially introduced. In the first half of the competitive period, participation in races is considered as preparatory work before the main races of the sports season. The competitive period should not be considered only as a period of realizing the rider’s potential in competitions, as the training role of the competitive structural formations themselves, which are used in preparation for significant races, is very large. Making changes to the training structure of cross-country cyclists proves that the performance indicators of EG athletes at competitions have significantly improved compared to CG cyclists.
In 2022, at the Championship of Ukraine, 80% of experimental athletes group result improved, 90% of athletes finished and only one athlete has worsened his result compared to 2021. Instead cyclists in the control group improved their results by only 30% and 20% of athletes remained in the same positions. Four athletes were not able to finish for various reasons – climbing from the course, falling, disqualification The results of the study showed that cyclists who trained according to the experimental program significantly improved their result at the Ukrainian Cross Country Championship.
