Improving the willpower of horting athletes

The improvement of willpower occurs during training and competition. One of the main conditions for success in combat horting is the development of willpower. A combat horting athlete cannot achieve success in training and competition if he does not have such qualities as perseverance, courage, endurance, determination, independence, initiative. The high development of these qualities determines willpower. The will of an athlete is a mental activity that is expressed in conscious actions and deeds aimed at achieving the set goals.

In combat horting, will is especially clearly manifested in actions and deeds related to overcoming various difficulties. During training, combat horting athletes sometimes have to make extraordinary efforts, perform exercises of general and special physical training to the point of impossibility, and also repeatedly repeat the execution of basic striking and throwing techniques of combat horting.

During competitions, the volitional qualities of the participants become paramount, and the athlete, subjected to high competitive physical and psychological stress, often faces a choice: to continue the fight for victory to the end or to reduce the fight to a draw, or even to accept defeat.

A strong-willed athlete will always fight to the end, and this will give him confidence in the vast majority of situations and increase the possibility of a successful performance. This is especially observed at competitions, when the athlete, as if in a losing situation, exerts willpower over himself, takes the initiative into his own hands, begins to attack and, turning the tide of the fight in his favor, wins over his opponent.

The development of will depends on the quality of the pedagogical process and the methodology of education, as well as the habits associated with them, established moral norms and the work of the combat horting athlete on himself. One of the main conditions that contribute to the development of will is the opinion of the team and the coach. The task of the coach in developing the moral and volitional qualities of an athlete is to provide conditions for their improvement, to teach him to correctly choose goals and evaluate his actions, to encourage correct actions and deeds, to ensure a single positive opinion of the sports team and the ability to correctly evaluate the actions of team members.

A combat horting athlete who has a high level of willpower and a fighting character will achieve high sports results much faster and more likely than a student who does not have the necessary level of perseverance, endurance, determination, independence and initiative.

Improving perseverance. There are many means to cultivate perseverance. The perseverance of a combat horting athlete is expressed in his ability to persistently strive to achieve the set goal, despite the difficulties encountered on this path.

Initially, achieving the set goal should not have significant difficulties. Then, as a result of successful actions, the combat horting athlete gains confidence, which stimulates him to achieve more difficult goals. Here, the coach must help the student correctly assess his strengths, and if as a result of the first successes the athlete makes an impossible decision, the coach warns him about it.

If the athlete as a result could not overcome the difficulties and could not achieve a solution to the task, the coach helps him to reveal the reasons and outline the path that will allow him to achieve victory in the future. Thus, the combat horting athlete gradually learns to overcome small difficulties first, and then more difficult ones.

For example, certain methods are used to develop perseverance during the training process. These methods are directly related to increasing performance during the exercises. If a 14-year-old combat horting athlete can perform a maximum of 50 arm flexions and extensions in a fist-hold position and 15 pull-ups on the crossbar, the coach, knowing his performance, gives him the task of reaching the following performance in 1 year: 70 arm flexions and extensions in a fist-hold position and 20 pull-ups on the crossbar.

In this case, the coach knows that 6 months (six months) will be enough to complete the task, but stimulating the athlete's perseverance, he sets a longer period. During each month, the coach is interested in the athlete's results, and with each, even a small intermediate success, praises the student, noting his strong-willed qualities and perseverance. After 6 months, the combat horting athlete achieves the task, happily informs the coach that he completed the exercise ahead of schedule, which previously seemed difficult to him, and the coach determines for himself the increase in the athlete's physical fitness and level of perseverance.

The perseverance of a combat horting athlete is closely related to hard work. If an athlete constantly works to achieve a goal, then he will definitely achieve a result. It should be noted that perseverance develops only when the athlete is successful in achieving the goals set. On the contrary, perseverance does not develop if the goal is not achieved. On the contrary, in this case, insecurity develops, a desire to belittle one's strengths. Thanks to perseverance, the athlete acquires such a necessary strong-willed quality as independence, the ability to make independent decisions and take responsibility for these decisions.

Improving independence. The independence of a combat horting athlete is expressed in his ability to act independently without outside help or guidance, the ability to make decisions himself and carry them out, in the desire for something new. These are very necessary and important qualities that help the athlete to stand out among the leaders and become a winner in competitions and fights, during which the coach does not have the opportunity to monitor the student, especially to prompt him to make the right decisions.

The independence and initiative of a combat horting athlete are based on deep knowledge that helps him make the right decisions. These qualities are developed through messages about the most correct ways of acting in different situations, storytelling and demonstration, and with the subsequent provision of the opportunity to perform or check them.

When conducting fights in training and during competitions, the athlete must get used to the fact that in order to win, he can only rely on himself, that no one will help him or tell him. This forces him to act independently. If the athlete makes the wrong decision, it means that he does not have sufficient knowledge on this issue. The coach's task is to find out what the athlete has not learned from the studied material. The coach's observation of the athlete's actions allows him to do this, and then explain why his actions were unsuccessful.

Having received certain knowledge in classes, a combat horting athlete can act not only as the coach showed, but also in his own way, successfully solving the task. So, sometimes when learning a technique, the athlete finds his own new version of this technique, which in the future can become the crown. Such an initiative should be supported and encouraged in every way. Encouragement is expressed in the fact that the coach invites the athlete to show the invented technique to everyone who is involved, and approves his activities.

This increases the initiative not only of the inventor of the new technique, but also of other athletes. The independence and initiative of combat horting athletes should develop gradually, as the students accumulate sufficient knowledge. Developing the independence of athletes, the coach should strive to ensure that each combat horting athlete can try to perform some simple actions on his own already in the first classes.

Gradually, independence should develop to such an extent that the athlete can correctly solve all training and competition tasks on his own. To develop independence, there is even a method when the athlete during simple club competitions, and more often during a specific fight (with a weaker opponent), remains without the support of the coach.

The coach deliberately leaves the gymnasium where the fight is being held, or moves away from the horting, demonstrating his busyness, but watches the athlete's actions, for manifestations of his independence. If the athlete noticed the absence of a coach, but the need to gather himself and defeat the opponent exceeded his confusion, this means that the athlete has high abilities of independence.

When an athlete makes an independent decision, he usually has a struggle of different motives. Moreover, this struggle does not end in most cases with the moment of making a decision, but can continue in the process of its implementation, especially if any difficulties are encountered during its implementation.

For example, the decision to gain weight for a certain competition is the result of a struggle of various motives. After the combat horting athlete makes a decision and begins to lose weight, the feeling of thirst increases and reinforces the motives against. If the athlete does not have highly developed qualities of endurance and perseverance, then he can change his decision. A persistent and resilient combat horting athlete can gain weight, but if he does not achieve victory in the competition, then in the future he will not be able to be so persistent unless he is encouraged in some other way.

The development of moral and volitional qualities occurs in the process of training sessions, competitions and in everyday life. The correct construction of classes, competitions and the regime, the appropriate demands on the part of coaches, judges and the combat horting sports team, which is expressed in the fact that they encourage the right actions, condemn the wrong ones, allow the development of the athlete's moral and volitional qualities. The willpower acquired during combat horting will definitely contribute to achieving high sports results and prospects in everyday life.

Improving determination. The determination of a combat horting athlete is expressed in his ability not to be afraid of difficulties and failures, the ability to assess his capabilities, make the right decision, and, having made it, try to fulfill it. The athlete develops this ability from various motives that determine his activity, to choose the most correct ones. Having made a decision, you need to act immediately without delay. The determination of a combat horting athlete develops if it is based on confidence and is reinforced by the opinion, approval of the coach and sports team. The manifestation of determination is hindered by uncertainty and fear.

The determination of a combat horting athlete is based on courage. Courage is an internal state of the athlete. A brave athlete feels calm and confident in a fight and is always ready to act decisively, rush into an attack, surprise the opponent, using his unpreparedness and the unexpectedness of the situation. The quality of courage is higher, the greater the sense of danger that the athlete needs to overcome. Courage is brought up and developed by performing various actions that require suppressing feelings of fear and uncertainty.

These feelings are easier to overcome if there is an example of successful performance of these actions by other athletes in the group. If the first attempt to perform an action is successful and does not cause any unpleasant sensations, then subsequent attempts will be performed more courageously, and, conversely, if the attempt is unsuccessful and leads to unpleasant sensations, then combat horting athletes will strive to avoid such a repetition.

In the latter case, indecision will develop instead of courage. A successful performance of a combat horting athlete in competitions also develops determination and courage. In the following competitions, the athlete will be even more determined and courageous. If in a competition or training the athlete loses most of the fights, then his subsequent performances will be indecisive.

Thus, when cultivating determination and courage, it is necessary to ensure that all or most of the actions that the athlete is trying to perform are reinforced with positive stimuli. In fights, the execution of techniques and the failure of a counterattack by the opponent increase the courage and determination of the combat horting athlete, and, conversely, the success of the opponent's counterattack sharply reduces the student's determination in applying these techniques, especially in fights with the same opponent.

The determination of a combat horting athlete depends on his endurance, the ability to suppress his feelings, which in turn helps to make the right decision, to choose from various motives for activity not the most pleasant, but the most necessary.

If a combat horting athlete performs actions that do not give him pleasure, but they are necessary for winning a fight or for the team, then the coach and the team of athletes must necessarily find some incentive measures so that the next time the athlete more resolutely performs the work necessary for the team. It should be borne in mind that incentive measures should be such as to suppress unpleasant feelings that the athlete experiences before starting work or while performing work.

Thus, a full range of means of cultivating determination is training and competitive tests, as well as everyday necessity. The determination that will be cultivated in a combat horting athlete will give him the opportunity to implement sports tasks, as well as quickly make decisions and work effectively in everyday areas of life.

Improving endurance. The development of endurance begins during training, and then its results can be observed at competitions during fights. In practice, endurance training exercises are used during classes. For example, standing on hands with feet on the wall is performed until the moment when the combat horting athlete can no longer physically withstand the handstand.

Endurance is trained during endurance training during cross-country and marathons. Also, endurance is trained with exercises in hanging on the crossbar, for example, a group of combat horting athletes simultaneously jump onto the crossbar and begin to hang. The training issue is not to jump off the crossbar faster than others. Also, endurance is trained during repeated repetition of the technique of high-level kicks, throws with a heavy partner, and during other special exercises of the combat horting athlete training methodology.

The endurance of an athlete is also expressed in his ability to overcome various feelings: fear, thirst, fatigue, pain and other sensations that arise as a result of the influence of both external and internal factors. The endurance of a combat horting athlete is of great importance in fulfilling the requirements of the sports regime, in achieving the intended goal, despite the fact that for this it is sometimes necessary to restrain instincts and habits.

When adjusting the weight, the athlete has to overcome a strong feeling of thirst and hunger. If he does not have sufficient endurance, then he will not endure and, as a result, by the time of weighing, will exceed his weight. In a fight, an athlete who does not have endurance will not be able to overcome the feeling of fatigue and will give the victory to his opponent.

An athlete who does not have endurance and self-control may, succumbing to a feeling of anger, break the rules, allow rudeness and lose. The endurance of a combat horting athlete develops if he trains himself to overcome first his feelings that have a low intensity, a slight thirst, pain, fatigue, unwillingness to do something, irritation, fear, desires that distract from solving the task, etc., and then stronger feelings. This is achieved by developing a system of tasks in training, gradually increasing the requirements for athletes.

The system of such tasks makes it possible to instill confidence in the combat horting athlete that he is able to endure the highest tests, and at the same time increase sports results. The athlete's confidence in the need to overcome difficulties and suppress certain negative feelings, as well as various tempting things, contributes to the development of endurance. Endurance is often expressed in the ability not only to overcome difficulties, but also in the ability to give up unnecessary things that hinder progress.

The development of will depends on the quality of the pedagogical process and the methodology of education, as well as the habits associated with them, established moral norms and the work of the combat horting athlete on himself. One of the main conditions that contribute to the development of will is the opinion of the team and the coach. The task of the coach in developing the moral and volitional qualities of an athlete is to provide conditions for their improvement, to teach him to correctly choose goals and evaluate his actions, to encourage correct actions and deeds, to ensure a single positive opinion of the sports team and the ability to correctly evaluate the actions of team members.

It should be noted that perseverance develops only when the athlete is successful in achieving the goals set. On the contrary, perseverance does not develop if the goal is not achieved.

Moreover, this struggle does not end in most cases with the moment of making a decision, but can continue in the process of its implementation, especially if any difficulties are encountered during its implementation. For example, the decision to gain weight for a certain competition is the result of a struggle of various motives. After the combat horting athlete makes a decision and begins to lose weight, the feeling of thirst increases and reinforces the motives against. If the athlete does not have highly developed qualities of endurance and perseverance, then he can change his decision. A persistent and resilient combat horting athlete can gain weight, but if he does not achieve victory in the competition, then in the future he will not be able to be so persistent unless he is encouraged in some other way. The development of moral and volitional qualities occurs in the process of training sessions, competitions and in everyday life.

The determination of a combat horting athlete develops if it is based on confidence and is reinforced by the opinion, approval of the coach and sports team. The manifestation of determination is hindered by uncertainty and fear. The determination of a combat horting athlete is based on courage. Courage is an internal state of the athlete. A brave athlete feels calm and confident in a fight and is always ready to act decisively, rush into an attack, surprise the opponent, using his unpreparedness and the unexpectedness of the situation. The quality of courage is higher, the greater the sense of danger that the athlete needs to overcome. Courage is brought up and developed by performing various actions that require suppressing feelings of fear and uncertainty. These feelings are easier to overcome if there is an example of successful performance of these actions by other athletes in the group. If the first attempt to perform an action is successful and does not cause any unpleasant sensations, then subsequent attempts will be performed more courageously, and, conversely, if the attempt is unsuccessful and leads to unpleasant sensations, then combat horting athletes will strive to avoid such a repetition. In the latter case, indecision will develop instead of courage. A successful performance of a combat horting athlete in competitions also develops determination and courage. In the following competitions, the athlete will be even more determined and courageous. If in a competition or training the athlete loses most of the fights, then his subsequent performances will be indecisive. Thus, when cultivating determination and courage, it is necessary to ensure that all or most of the actions that the athlete is trying to perform are reinforced with positive stimuli. In fights, the execution of techniques and the failure of a counterattack by the opponent increase the courage and determination of the combat horting athlete, and, conversely, the success of the opponent's counterattack sharply reduces the student's determination in applying these techniques, especially in fights with the same opponent. The determination of a combat horting athlete depends on his endurance, the ability to suppress his feelings, which in turn helps to make the right decision, to choose from various motives for activity not the most pleasant, but the most necessary. If a combat horting athlete performs actions that do not give him pleasure, but they are necessary for winning a fight or for the team, then the coach and the team of athletes must necessarily find some incentive measures so that the next time the athlete more resolutely performs the work necessary for the team. It should be borne in mind that incentive measures should be such as to suppress unpleasant feelings that the athlete experiences before starting work or while performing work. Thus, a full range of means of cultivating determination is training and competitive tests, as well as everyday necessity. The determination that will be cultivated in a combat horting athlete will give him the opportunity to implement sports tasks, as well as quickly make decisions and work effectively in everyday areas of life.

When adjusting the weight, the athlete has to overcome a strong feeling of thirst and hunger. If he does not have sufficient endurance, then he will not endure and, as a result, by the time of weighing, will exceed his weight. In a fight, an athlete who does not have endurance will not be able to overcome the feeling of fatigue and will give the victory to his opponent. An athlete who does not have endurance and self-control may, succumbing to a feeling of anger, break the rules, allow rudeness and lose. The endurance of a combat horting athlete develops if he trains himself to overcome first his feelings that have a low intensity, a slight thirst, pain, fatigue, unwillingness to do something, irritation, fear, desires that distract from solving the task, etc., and then stronger feelings. This is achieved by developing a system of tasks in training, gradually increasing the requirements for athletes. The system of such tasks makes it possible to instill confidence in the combat horting athlete that he is able to endure the highest tests, and at the same time increase sports results. The athlete's confidence in the need to overcome difficulties and suppress certain negative feelings, as well as various tempting things, contributes to the development of endurance. Endurance is often expressed in the ability not only to overcome difficulties, but also in the ability to give up unnecessary things that hinder progress.
