The Effect of Specific Training on Some Physical and Physiological Variables in Weightlifting

Abstract

It has become essential to develop a training program to ensure the continued optimal performance of athletes and to monitor certain physiological variables resulting from physical exertion. This program aims to reduce stress caused by a lack of experience and skills among specialized athletes.

This research aims to identify the effect of using specific training methods with weights on improving the performance of certain technical skills in weightlifters. Specific training methods have a positive impact on weightlifters. Therefore, the importance of this study lies in its investigation of the effect of training on certain variables in weightlifters. It attempts to identify a set of specific exercises that contribute to improving the athletes' performance levels, enabling them to overcome their shortcomings in the snatch and clean and jerk lifts and reach the highest international standards.

The researchers employed the experimental method deemed most suitable for the nature of the research. The study population consisted of (12) weightlifters from the Al-Madhatiya Club, representing both the research population and sample. After analyzing and discussing the results, the researchers concluded:

- The research findings demonstrated a significant improvement in certain physiological variables among the weightlifters, such as increased muscle strength and endurance.
