The structure of orienteering competitors' physical preparedness at the stage of preliminary base training

Abstract

The importance of physical preparation in the system of orienteering competitors training is confirmed in the article. It is defined that the setting of correlation between constituents of orienteering competitors’ physical preparedness during the early stages of preparation is one of per-spective directions of its improvement. The purpose of work consisted in finding out the presence and level of intercommunications between the indices of physical preparedness of 14-15-years-old orienteering competitors. 26 orienteering competitors of III-II grades took part in the research. The level of their physical preparedness was determined by 15 indices. It is set as a result of researches, that most components of physical preparedness closely correlate between itself. In particular, from 44 present positive intercommunications 27 did have a level of meaningfulness of p≤0,001, 6 – p≤0,01, 11 – p≤0,05 and two intercommunications are defined as negative.
