Abstract. One of the effective means of solving problems in extreme conditions of hand-to-hand combat is painful techniques. Painful techniques in hand-to-hand combat are widely used in full-contact fights to achieve victory over an opponent and in competitive activities during the demonstration of applied techniques, because they reflect the real conditions of power confrontation. The effectiveness of such techniques is based on accurate knowledge of the anatomical and biomechanical features of joints, the ability to create the necessary lever or rotational moment, and the athlete's ability to correctly respond to the dynamics of the attack. Painful techniques are of particular importance in the applied aspect of hand-to-hand combat, as they allow you to quickly and controlledly neutralize the enemy without causing unnecessary damage. Research into the features of performing painful techniques in extreme situations of hand-to-hand combat will eliminate a certain imbalance between the real needs of sports and applied sports and the existing methodological base, since without a deep analysis of biomechanical conditions and practical limitations, the technique may lose its effectiveness or increase the risk of injury. Objective. Determining the importance and specifics of the use of painful techniques in various aspects of hand-to-hand combat. Methods. The methodological basis of the study was based on the analysis and generalization of literary sources (theoretical method) and included a set of empirical procedures: video analysis of competitive activity, expert assessment method, questionnaire. For quantitative processing and analysis of the obtained empirical data, mathematical statistics methods were used. Descriptive statistics were used for the primary quantification of the results, which included the calculation of key distribution parameters: the number and quality of technical actions in the sports and applied sections of hand-to-hand combat. Results. Conducted competitive activities in hand-to-hand combat allows us to conclude that it is the use of painful techniques during the fight that allows you to win an early victory, and in the applied section, unlike wrestling and striking techniques, painful techniques make it possible to neutralize the opponent with minimal injuries and precise dosage of impact, so they are often used to solve situational tasks. The results of the study confirm the feasibility of using painful techniques in the applied and sports sections of hand-to-hand combat and emphasize the importance of developing analytical, technical and tactical skills in athletes necessary for their correct and safe use in extreme conditions of hand-to-hand combat. Conclusions. Analysis of theoretical and practical aspects of the use of painful techniques in hand-to-hand combat has shown that their effectiveness is determined by a combination of biomechanical conditions, anatomical features of the joints and technical and tactical preparedness of the athlete. Determination of a number of practical factors on which the mechanism of painful influence and the subsequent effectiveness of performing a painful technique depend allows for a methodically correct construction of the training process at different stages of many years of improvement. A systematized algorithm for determining the name of painful techniques, which is formed depending on the structure of the action itself, allows for a clear identification of any painful techniques regardless of the positions in which they are performed.Downloads
