Abstract

Background. Between the level of achieved sport performances and that of sportives’ physical training there is arelation of direct determination: the highest the level of physical training is, the greater the chances to obtain goodresults in competitions are.Aims. Our aim in the study was to check and emphasize the effects of the use of short intervals methods in conceivingprograms of physical training upon this component of training.Methods. The study took place between September 2005 and March 2006. The experimental group was made up of 12female sportives from “C.S.S. – M. Eminescu College” from Oradea who benefited of a formative program of specialphysical training, different from that of the control group. The control group was made up of 12 female sportives fromL.P.S. – C.S.S. Satu Mare who followed a normal physical training program based on traditional methods. The twogroups resemble regarding most studied parameters, the occurring differences being insignificant.In order to accomplish our research, we used a wide range of research methods, the most important of them being: theexperimental method, the method of analogy and modeling, the method of testing, as well as the statisticalmathematicalmethod.Results. After the statistical analysis of results, there were noticed significant results between the two groups, at thelevel of most studied parameters.Conclusions. The formulated conclusions regarded two plans: specific motility and body adjustment to effort. The useof short physical training intervals of junior female basketball players determined positive effects in the motor area
