Application of a mathematical model in control of sport training

The value of each state variable (physical condition, sport scores) at the end of certain period is a function of general state of the athlete, his scores described at the beginning of this period of time and adapted training, that is implemented intensity of separate training means (controlling variables) in the analyzed time period. The aim of this work was to determine optimal values of control in swimmer training, targeted at achieving the best score in 25 m and 800 m swimming. For this purpose a model was developed, beginning with its shape (it has been defined, what is state variable and what is control, how the state variables and control variables influence the increase) to determining numerical values of all parameters. The basis for the development of the detailed model was pedagogic experiment conducted on the group of 14-year old boys. Conclusions were drawn on the practical possibility of using a mathematical model in control of sport training.
