DETERMINATION OF THE LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT OF SPEED ABILITIES IN YOUNG HAMMER THROWERS
In the article, we tried to consider the question of how the level of development of speed qualities of hammer throwers can affect sports results. Hammer throw, as we know, is a speed-power sport, where both speed and muscle strength are equally important. In this work, we are interested in the velocity component as a factor that allows us to throw the hammer as far as possible. After all, it is known that the range depends on the departure angle and the speed of the projectile. Knowing the level of the speed capabilities of our athletes, it is possible to develop a methodology that meets the requirements of the preparedness of the contingent, focusing on the lagging or prevailing components of the readiness of young hammer throwers, thereby improving this quality, which makes it possible to perform a competitive exercise more effectively.
