Abstract
The introduction and significance of this research lie in establishing scientifically sound foundations for selecting stretching exercises during specialized training units. The research problem is the limited attention given to training methods specific to flexibility, and the lack of structured training units that follow the principles of training load, aimed at enhancing performance and achievement by developing flexibility in muscles and joints. The research aimed to design stretching exercises within a training program for the study sample and to identify the impact of these exercises on improving specific flexibility and the performance in the 110-meter hurdles event. The research hypothesized that there would be statistically significant differences between pre- and post-tests as a result of using selected stretching exercises to improve flexibility and hurdling performance. The research covered various fields: the human field included young athletes aged 15–16; the time field ranged from February 1, 2008, to March 3, 2009; and the location was Al-Kashafa and Al-Shaab International Stadiums. Chapter two addressed the concept, types, and classifications of flexibility, along with the requirements of the 110-meter hurdles. Chapter three detailed the experimental method used by the researchers, who applied pre- and post-tests and conducted both exploratory and field experiments using appropriate statistical tools. Finally, chapter four presented, analyzed, and discussed the results related to the flexibility tests and the performance in the 110-meter hurdles, showing the effectiveness of the proposed training approach.
