Effectiveness of the scientific support of Russian rowers pre-Olympic training

R & D trends, differing in their growth dynamics, were identified within the Soviet (1950-1990) and National (1996-2020) projects of the Olympic training of the rowers. The launch of the project (1950) motivates the development of the diagnostic platform, allowing for adjustments to the polarized training (G. Krasnopevtsev methodology). The steady growth of the competitiveness of the team in the 1960s is ensured with increasing the training functionality of the loads, optimizing the structure of preparedness and efficiency of the rowing techniques. Technologicalization of the conditioned and technical-tactical training of mobilization type in the projects of the 70s provides the team with the world leadership: 4-5 medals at the competitions in Mexico, Munich, Montreal and Moscow. The steps to retaining the positions in the projects of the 1980s are associated with the implementation of the strategic resources of “bloc periodization”: strengthening the distance specialization of training, concentration in the blocks of the intensive loads, customization of the training regimes (methodology of V...
