Effect Of A Physical Program On Certain Physiological Abilities And Skill Performance (Defensive And Offensive) Of Foil

Abstract

Given multitude and diversity of sporting events across various disciplines, physical aspect of training varies from one event or sport to another, depending on individual's performance level and capabilities. Physical development can be achieved through numerous exercises within training programs designed to help athletes reach their desired level. This process involves significant timeframes and requires dedicated work within specialized physical training programs to develop these abilities. This research aims to develop a physical training program for fencers and observe its impact on their performance. Physical abilities, physiological capabilities, and defensive and offensive skills. Research hypotheses there are statistically significant hypotheses in pre- and post-tests of physical program regarding physiological and skill-related abilities of foil. The most important conclusions were that physical program applied to foil was effective, based on the research results and percentage of change. The program had a physical impact on foil, and it also had a physiological impact on them. The impact of physical training program on skill development of foil. Among the most important research recommendations generalizing the current research findings to coaches and players of foil discipline, conducting similar studies in various sports, and need to work on developing physical training programs to reach required level.
