Sports Training within Special Olympics Fitness Innovation Program
Original language description
The presented article is focused on athletes – Special Olympians and their fitness within a track and field environment. The improvement of fitness is considered as the basis for future sports improvement of athletes´ health related fitness variables. Special Olympics Europe/Eurasia selected and granted SO Healthy Athletes’ programmes to innovate the fitness of athletes with a mental disability. The Czech Republic’s SO programme is focused on the education of coaches and athletes on fitness training. The presented article describes the case studies of 11 athletes (beginners, as well as advanced athletes). It includes their training achievements in athletic running events (100 – 200 – 400 m), measured over the last two years (in 2014 and more especially in 2015). Running events were chosen because the natural movement involved is minimally polluted by skills (influenced by cognitive limits). Examples are given of athletes´ performances in different age cohorts and in different training regimes.
