Abstract

Abstract
The research aims to analyze some of the kinematic determinants of the runners of the University of Anbar team in the acceleration phase of the (100) meter race, as well as to prepare special exercises based on the results of the kinematic analysis of the acceleration phase, and to know the effect of these special exercises on some of the kinematic determinants of the runners of the University of Anbar team, The researchers assumed that there are statistically significant differences between the results of the pre- and post-tests for some of the kinematic determinants of the acceleration phase in the (100) meter run for the runners of the University of Anbar team. The researchers used the experimental method and designed a single experimental group with two pre- and post-tests, The research sample consisted of the runners of the University of Anbar team for the (100) meter race, numbering (5) runners. The implementation of special exercises began on Monday (10/14/2024) until Saturday (12/7/2024), for a period of (8) weeks, at a rate of (3) training units per week for the days, at a rate of (24) training units, and the researchers concluded that there was a noticeable improvement in the total performance time for the (100) meter race, The time decreased by (0.09) seconds, and there was also an improvement in the acceleration phase, where its time decreased by (0.064) seconds. Based on this, the researchers recommend the necessity of focusing on improving the acceleration phase from all mechanical aspects due to its importance in developing the (100) meter race time, as well as emphasizing the improvement of the variables of step length and frequency due to the importance of these two variables in achieving the ideal rates required to reach the ideal speed.
