The book points out the gross fallacy of the common beliefs about the process and adaptation mechanisms. It is especially noted that these ideas cause irreparable harm to all branches of sports science and practice. The systemic laws of adaptation are presented, which describe the general principles and specific features of the organism’s adaptation to the complex environmental factors acting on it. The laws of «cross-adaptation» and «transfer of training» are described, the knowledge of which is absolutely necessary to ensure the effectiveness of the training process.
