The effect of the third intensity zone exercises on the strength characteristic of the speed of the arms and the achievement of swimming (200) meters freestyle

Abstract

The research aimed to prepare third-intensity zone training for 200-meter freestyle swimmers, and to identify the effect of third-intensity zone training on a positive impact on the speed-specific strength of the arms and the completion of a 200-meter freestyle swim. The experimental approach was based on the design of the experimental and control groups, and the researcher assumed that zone training The third intensity has a positive effect on the speed strength of the arms and the completion of a 200-meter freestyle swim, and the exercises in the third intensity zone have a positive effect on the speed strength of the arms and the completion of a 200-meter freestyle swim, which is better than the usual training. The limits of the research community were the Iraqi youth national team swimmers for the distance ( 12 swimmers who are preparing to participate in external races for the sports season (2023-2024) and are (15-17) years old. All of them were deliberately selected using a comprehensive enumeration method (100%) from their original community because they are the community of the phenomenon investigated in the research problem themselves, and then they were divided into two groups of equal number according to the experimental design, and these training exercises were applied at a rate of (3) training units per week for a period of (8) The experimental group swimmers spent weeks, and after completing the research experiment, the results of the pre- and post-tests were processed with the SPSS system, and the conclusions were that the third intensity zone exercises are suitable for 200-meter freestyle swimmers, and these exercises help in developing the speed-specific strength of the arms. In improving the time of completion of a swimming (200) free meters for young swimmers, they excel over the swimmers who train without them, and the researcher recommended that it is necessary not to exaggerate high -intensity training when working to improve the physical factor and the time of completion of a swimming (200) free for young swimmers.
