Abstract

The objective of this study is to highlight the effect of physical exercises specific to the game of tennis, carried out in the aquatic environment to optimize the effort capacity of the players practicing this sport on the physiological parameters of the players in this sport. The impact of such an intervention program in the aquatic environment is a multilateral one, having benefits on optimizing performance capacity, maintaining an optimal state of health and opening new horizons for children practicing the game of tennis. A novelty element of this experimental research is represented by the implementation in the training program of tennis players in the aquatic environment and exercises from other sports branches such as swimming, gymnastics and athletics. The intervention program is a bold attempt to weave and combine exercises from different sports, in a non-specific and totally different environment, in order to improve performances and results, looking at the perspective, without necessarily aiming at great current performances, in the short term, which could bring disappointments, create certain barriers or even lead to the abandonment of sports activities.

Influența exercițiilor fizice effectuate în mediul acvatic asupra parametrilor fiziologici la jucătorii de tenis de 10 -12 ani. Această lucrare își propune să evidențieze efectul exercițiilor fizice specifice jocului de tenis, desfășurate în mediul acvatic asupra parametrilor fiziologici ai jucătorilor din acest sport. Tenisul modern se caracterizează prin restructurarea conţinutului pregătirii, în contextul amplificării spectacolului sportiv. Azi, tenisul presupune un fond specific de aptitudini ale jucătorilor, care include în primul rând o pregătire polivalentă, manifestarea unei mari libertăţi de creaţie, de inventivitate tactică, ce nu poate fi exprimată decât de indivizii care au atins un înalt nivel de măiestrie tehnică, fizică si psihologică. Sportivii de tenis de performanță au nevoie de un amestec de abilități anaerobe, cum ar fi viteza, agilitatea și puterea, combinate cu capacități aerobe mari. (Kovacs et al., 2007). Frecvența cardiacă este un aspect esențial pentru un antrenor, deoarece oferă informații despre intensitatea efortului fizic în raport cu capacitățile fiecărui individ (Cumming, 2017). Însemnătatea pregătirii fizice este unanim recunoscută, deoarece constituie suportul activităţii jucătorilor care astfel îşi pot valorifica posibilităţile tehnico-tactice si psihologice. În aceste condiţii, necesitatea aplicării unor mijloace şi metode de pregătire inedite, “neconvenţionale” adecvate influenţării pozitive a capacităţii de performanţă, reprezintă din punctul nostru de vedere o preocupare esenţială a specialistului din domeniul motricităţii. În timpul alergării prin apă, consumul de oxigen este de 3 ori mai mare, la o viteză de 50m/min, această valoare se poate obține la o viteză considerabil mai mică decât la o alergare pe uscat (Brinks et al., 2009).

Cuvinte-cheie: tenis, performanță, capacități aerobe, antrenament neconvențional
