Abstract


Article presents hodographs of the arterial blood pressure relation to heart-rate enabling to evaluate organism sensitivity of trained weightlifter to the magnitude of lifted weight, lifting technique and weight repeatability. Variation regularities of the latter relation have been explained and approximate criterions of relative stability and skill level were formulated. Analysing variations of the relation of the arterial blood pressure to the heart-rate and barbell’s lifting accelerations and velocities the weaknesses of trained weightlifters have been explained. It has shown that in most cases the blood pressure of the weightlifter can increase 8–13% after the barbell drop.

Keywords: blood pressure, heart rate, snatch, clean and jerk, lifting accelerations and velocities, organism reaction to weight, indexes of relative stability and technique, hodograph
