Abstract:
The study aimed to identify the effectiveness of TABATA exercises in developing speed endurance, cardiorespiratory fitness, and the performance of the hook punch for young boxers, the researchers used the experimental method with an experimental design with a pre- and post-test for the two equal groups (experimental and control) to suit the nature of the research. The research community was identified with 12 boxers of the Karkh Sports Club for the 2021-2022 training season, the research sample was randomly selected by (10) boxers and they were divided into two groups (experimental and control) with five boxers for each group. 2 boxers were used for the pilot experiment. Tabata exercises prepared by the researchers were applied for the period from 10/12/2021 to 15/2/2022. The exercises were carried out during the special preparation period. The load was formed for the rest of the weeks by performing a period of (20 seconds) and worked (10 seconds) rest with a number of repetitions of 5 repetitions and a period of one minute rest between groups. The exercises were applied with intensity ranging between 85 - 90% of the individual's maximum ability high intensity interval training. One of the most important conclusions reached by the researchers is the effectiveness of Tabata exercises in developing speed endurance, cardiorespiratory fitness, and the performance of hook punches for young boxers.
