| Annotation: | The aim of the study is to develop, theoretically substantiate, and experimentally test a methodology for improving special physical training in synchronized swimming at the level of elite sports mastery. The objectives of the study are: (1) to develop a methodology for developing special physical qualities in synchronized swimmers of high sporting qualification, taking into account the qualitative uniqueness of implementing the conceptual provisions of the theory and methodology of sports, which determine the content and organization of special physical training at the level of elite sports mastery; (2) to test the effectiveness of this methodology in the training process of synchronized swimmers at the level of elite sports mastery. The research materials and methods include theoretical knowledge presented in scientific publications in the subject area under study, as well as the results of a formative pedagogical experiment involving two groups of synchronized swimmers, each consisting of 12 participants, who train in improving sports skills groups at Olympic Reserve Sports School “Delfin”, Naberezhnye Chelny, Republic of Tatarstan (experimental group), and Olympic Reserve Sports School of aquatic and other sports, Saint Petersburg (control group). To achieve the research goal, a set of methods is used, including: analysis and generalization of scientific and methodological literature and program and regulatory documents; questionnaire survey; pedagogical observation; video analysis; pedagogical testing; expert assessment; pedagogical experiment; methods of mathematical statistics. The article presents the results of a formative pedagogical experiment, which includes the preparatory and competitive periods of the annual cycle of sports training. The results show that the implementation of the experimental methodology, which includes the use of seven qualitatively different physical exercise complexes within the framework of standard repetition, variable exercise, and interval exercise methods; the method of conjugate impact, and the methods of integral training (game and competitive), significantly improves the development of special physical qualities and competitive results in synchronized swimming for highly qualified athletes. | ||
