The effect of variable resistance exercises to developing some physical abilities and the accuracy and speed of the fencing lunge movement

Abstract

The importance of the research lies in the fact that varying resistance exercises help the player perform movements under changing and different conditions, so that the player is able to confront the various conditions and situations that he is exposed to during the match in a good way. In addition to developing the accuracy and speed of stabbing, as for the research problem, through the researcher’s observation that he is a fencing coach in the Paralympic Committee in Dhi Qar Governorate, he noticed the lack of interest in modern methods of training, especially mixed resistance exercises, so the researcher decided to study this problem by developing mixed resistance exercises to develop physical abilities. And the accuracy and speed of stabbing, which would raise the level of the game to the better. The objectives of the research were to prepare various resistance exercises to develop some physical abilities and the accuracy and speed of stabbing in fencing. And to identify the statistical differences between the pre- and post-tests of the research group for some physical abilities and the accuracy and speed of stabbing in fencing. The researcher adopted the experimental method with a single-group design, and the research population was determined in an intentional way, as the research population included young players in the Specialized Fencing Center in Nasiriyah District, whose ages ranged from 16. - 18 years old and (7) players, all players were selected and represent the research sample (100%) from the original community.
