Abstract:

Diving training and improvement, as any difficult for coordination action, is based on
the main principles of training: mastering a motor action at the ability level, detailed learning,
and then mastering and improving the action at the skill level [1]. The elements technique
improvement happens during the repeated action or its parts reproduction, with directed
changes in the movements. A number of phases performed correctly are repeated without
significant changes and are gradually automated [1]. In diving the whole process of training
and mastering is aimed at the elements of diving technique improvement, and in particular the
run-up-hurdle step development. In recent years, the attention of specialists in diving has been
focused on increasing the repulsion height in springboard diving, owing to increasing the use
of the springboard oscillations during the run-up hurdle step. The works have been published
[2,4,5,6,7,8] directed toward the resilient forces of the springboard study during the runup
hurdle step fulfillment from the springboard in diving. However, we didn’t find the works
connected with teaching a new run-up-hurdle step with “jumping-off” in the domestic literature
and this situation conditions the novelty of the present research work. In this connection the
article offers the exercises, directed toward a new run-up hurdle step teaching and development
on the springboard. It can be used in practical work with the athletes. Materials. The article
presents the author’s exercises. They can be used in ground training of divers for this phase of the dive teaching and improvement. The effectiveness of the offered exercises is shown. Research methods. Information sources analysis, expert evaluation, methods of mathematical statistics. Results. On the basis of the run-up-hurdle step technique with “jumping-off” analysis we selected the exercises for the technique of run-up-hurdle step training and improvement in
terms of ground training. The main result of the study is the following: the effectiveness of the
used exercises in sports practice determination. Conclusion. We revealed the effectiveness of
the created methodology of training during the pedagogical experiment. The athletes from the
experimental group, who used developed by us exercises in training, significantly increased the
quality of the main “jump-off” element fulfillment, increased the height of the take-off from the
edge of a springboard and stability of hurdle step fulfillment.
