Abstract
The article investigates the effectiveness of integrated strength training as a key means of optimizing the speed-strength performance of elite track and field athletes. Integrated strength training, which focuses on functionality, the chain nature of movement, and core stabilization, is considered a promising approach capable of optimizing the transfer of strength into speed. The purpose of the study was the theoretical substantiation and analysis of the influence of integrated strength training on the dynamics of key speed-strength indicators in qualified sprint athletes within the structure of annual periodization. A pedagogical experiment was conducted involving qualified sprinters (n=16), divided into a Control Group, which used traditional strength training, and an Experimental Group, which applied the developed integrated strength training program throughout the annual training cycle. Both groups showed positive progress, but the performance gains in the Experimental Group were statistically significantly higher. These data indicate that integrated strength training, which includes functional multi-joint movements and plyometrics, more effectively ensures the transformation of maximum strength into speed-strength endurance, which is critically important for sprinting. It is proven that integrated strength training is a more effective means of optimizing the speedstrength performance of qualified sprint athletes in the annual cycle compared to the traditional methodology. The results have significant practical value for correcting training programs. Further research should focus on the individualization of IST and its long-term adaptive effects.
