THE CONCEPT OF EFFECTIVE TECHNICAL ACTIONS IN MAS-WRESTLING: A THEORETICAL AND ANALYTICAL REVIEW
Abstract and keywords
Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to theoretically substantiate the concept of effective technical actions in mas-wrestling based on biomechanical analysis and the integration of data from related sporting disciplines. The relevance of this work is driven by the need to transition from empirical coaching methods to science-based movement modeling as the sport becomes increasingly professionalized. The research methodology includes a literature screening, a taxonomic approach, visualization methods, and a comparative analysis of biomechanical patterns in freestyle wrestling, rugby, tennis, and cycling. The results include the development of a new taxonomy of technical actions based on force-generation mechanisms rather than external characteristics. Three functional clusters were identified: statodynamic traction, rotational-wrist manipulations, and locomotor-positional actions. Gender-specific effectiveness was also revealed: it was proven that the male technique model relies on peak power and reactivity, whereas the female model focuses on strength endurance and a "viscous" start. The term "effective working configuration" was introduced, and an optimal knee joint angle of $100–120^\circ$ was substantiated to maximize traction force. The practical significance of the study lies in the development of instrumental criteria for assessing technical mastery on simulators, allowing for the detection of hidden biomechanical errors and the optimization of the training process for high-ranking mas-wrestlers.
