Abstract

Handball has a very long history and was an official sport from the XI Olympic Games. In recent years, another key factor in determining performance, physical fitness, has gradually been emphasised by sports teams and the field of sports science. Although handball has become very mature in terms of technical and tactical training, the physical fitness training plan adopted by most handball teams is still not in line with the needs of modern competitive sports, and most teams do not develop physical training programmes based on the characteristics of handball. Therefore, The literature method was used to collect studies related to handball physical training in recent years and to read relevant books, explore the specialised features of handball, which find that some problems including a lack of knowledge and attention to physical training, insufficient training load intensity to meet the demands of international competition, inadequate integration of physical training and special features, a failure to consider the specific requirements of different player positions, and a lack of emphasis on prevention and protection during training. and makes some suggestions from the perspective of the specific characteristics of handball, offering novel training ideas for coaches in the area of late special physical training to enhancement of the quality of special physical training.
