Structural and functional changes in the locomotor apparatus in athletes in different sports
The loads of modern sports border on the prethreshold and threshold adaptive capabilities of the human body. At the same time, a decrease in the functional state of the musculoskeletal system is the main reason for the temporary or complete end of the process of long-term sports training. Chronic overcoming of specific physical loads, starting from primary school age, on the one hand, and the structural features of the main competitive exercise, on the other hand, can act as a compromising factor in the pathobiomechanical setting of both the musculoskeletal system as a whole and its individual locomotor systems, links in particular. The article presents the results of studying the structural and functional changes in the musculoskeletal system in athletes specializing in various sports.
