The effect of weight training exercises to increase the difficulty of the training unit on some functional variables and the concentration of mineral salts and movements on the balance beam in gymnastics for women

Abstract

The aim of this research was to develop weight-bearing exercises to increase the difficulty of the training unit on some functional variables, concentrating on mineral salts, and movements on the balance beam in women's gymnastics. The experimental approach was used, and the research sample consisted of female gymnasts participating in the balance beam activity, affiliated with the Al-Waziriyah College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, University of Baghdad. The most important conclusions were: Weight-bearing exercises to increase the difficulty of the training unit achieved the training objective, especially the functional and physiological aspects, which are important in developing functional variables, concentrating on mineral salts, and movements on the balance beam in women's gymnastics. The most important recommendations were: Adopting weight-bearing exercises to increase the difficulty of the training unit, as they achieved the training objective, especially the functional and physiological aspects, which are important in developing functional variables, concentrating on mineral salts, and movements on the balance beam in women's gymnastics
