Abstract
Introduction. A gymnast executes various skill performances continuously on a pommel horse requiring explosive power. The gymnast is in urgent need to endure this quality, which aims to maintain the explosive power (EP) performance level. Aim. The research aims to identify the impact of a training programme to develop explosive power endurance (EPE) on selected biochemical variables and skill performance level, namely catecholamine (CA), free radicals, malondialdehyde (MDA), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and pommel horse skill performance level among 2nd-class gymnasts Material & Methods. The researchers used the experimental method implementing 1 experimental group design (pre- and post-tests). The basic research sample was intentionally selected from 2nd-class gymnasts. The basic experiment sample consisted of 4 athletes. The training programme was applied for 12 weeks. Result. The proposed training programme has positive impact on the biochemical variables and skill performance level among the pommel horse gymnasts. Conclusion. Skill performance on the pommel horse has improved because of improved biochemical capabilities by applying training of EPE development fitting the requirements of gymnastics skill composition during competition.
