Special functional systems in judo athletes 18-22 years of age

Aim. This study examines special functional systems (SFSs), phase analysis, long-term adaptation, mechanisms, and integral indicators associated with athletic performance. Materials and methods. The study involved 18–22-year-old judo athletes (n = 10) with varying skill levels. Central and peripheral hemodynamics were evaluated using the Centaur system (Microlux, Russia). Body composition analysis was conducted with Tanita BC-418 (Japan). Postural measurements were obtained with the MBN stabilometric system (Russia). Respiratory and circulatory systems were evaluated using SCHILLER diagnostic equipment (Switzerland). Blood, the cardiopulmonary system, gas exchange, and metabolic measurements were performed with the AMP analyzer system (Ukraine). Results. Key findings include postural system parameters, segmental body composition analysis, cardiopulmonary data, and hemodynamic measurements. Conclusion. Our data suggest that SFSs undergo changes during long-term adaptation, with new parameters emerging following periods of peak adaptation. Performance-associated factors include adaptability, overtraining, health status, and various physiological parameters.
