Selection and training in orienteering
The strategy for the development of physical culture and approved by the Government of the Russian Federation on November 24, 2020 determined that sports training is the most important element in sports. Sports training in orienteering will be effective if the correct selection of those involved is made and completion of each stage of the system of long-term training by selection, which will determine groups of athletes for subsequent classes. The purpose of the study is a theoretical and experimental study of the features of the selection of those involved in the stages of the system of long-term training in sports orientation, taking into account natural prerequisites and analysis of criteria for the growth of sports results. The results of the experiment showed that under the influence of physical exertion with increasing age, the ability of the cardiorespiratory system increases, which means that the results of improving physical and mental performance improve, so the forecast of physical performance is possible at 8 years, and at 14-15 years, this forecast is less reliable. The increase in results with strenuous physical training depends on the genetic characteristics of the person and heredity. This applies primarily to morphological features. The correlation between the growth of parents and athletes is at the level of 0.5 references.
