Abstract

The research aims to prepare exercises using different weights for (50)-meter freestyle swimmers from the youth category and to identify the effect of exercises using different weights on some biochemical indicators and the completion time of (50)-meter freestyle swimming for youth. The current research community was represented by the youth swimmers of the Sayed Sadiq Sports Club for the sports season (2024-2025), totaling (12) swimmers. (8) swimmers were selected from them for the research sample representing the single experimental group in this research. They represent (66.666%) of the original community, and the researcher concluded that training with exercises using different weights increases the accumulation of lactic acid in the blood after the effort, increases the concentration of the enzyme creatine kinase in the blood after the effort, and increases the concentration of troponin in the blood after the effort within the healthy limits of these biochemical indicators that give an indication of the suitability of the physical effort for these exercises with high-intensity interval training for young swimmers. Training with exercises using different weights helps in improving the time of completing the (50) meter freestyle swimming for young swimmers.
