Analysis of the psychophysiological state of high-level martial arts athletes

The article presents a comprehensive analysis of psychophysiological markers that determine the level of readiness and performance of highly qualified martial arts athletes (boxing, taekwondo) at the stage of sports improvement. The purpose of the study is to conduct an analysis of the psychophysiological state of martial arts athletes (boxing, taekwondo) during the competitive period, and to identify key markers that determine their level of readiness and performance. Research methods: analysis of scientific literature, internet sources, and competition materials; recording and analysis of quantitative and qualitative indicators (total number of punches per match, number of scored punches, percentage of successful punches, number of victories in the top 3 matches of the tournament); assessment of psychophysiological state; statistical processing of data. Research results and conclusions. Based on data from the objective assessment of technical-tactical actions, sensorimotor reactions (simple and complex visuomotor reactions), significant differences in indicators were identified depending on the athlete's qualification, gender, and type of sport. It was established that more highly qualified athletes are characterized by significantly shorter reaction latency times, greater stability of reactions, as well as a predominance of qualitative performance indicators (percentage of successful strikes, victories) over quantitative ones. It has been shown that psychophysiological markers (reaction speed, attention stability, CNS stability) are key factors in competitive success. The study results justify the need to integrate objective monitoring of the psychophysiological state into the training system for martial artists in order to enhance the effectiveness of training management and competitive performance.
