Morphofunctional markers of kinetic aptitude in a sport selection system

Abstract

In the article we study morphofunctional markers of sportsmen kinetic aptitude as one of the criteria for sport selection and sporting achievements prediction. The article contains various renderings of sport selection, shows its stages as a united system based on the hierarchy principle and targeted approach. It also extends different scientific views on the young people sporting aptitude detecting. The article reveals separate results of the diversified long-term researches (1965–2016) on the issues of physical and training load optimization in athletes of various sports taking into consideration their constitutional type (morphofunctional marker). Experimental materials are proved by high sporting achievements of Greco-Roman wrestlers and speed underwater swimmers. The study broadens the scientific knowledge about the opportunities of athlete perspective determination by means of morphofunctional criteria (markers) not only in a particular sport, but at the stage of his specialization.
