الملخص

The aim of this study was to identify the impact of integrated health fitness programs on improving physical performance and preventing injuries in handball players. The researcher used the quasi-experimental method, and an intentional sample of (30) young players was selected, divided into two groups: an experimental woman who underwent an integrated health fitness program, and a control group who underwent the usual training program. The program was extended for 8 weeks, with 3 units per week. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in favor of the experimental group in all elements of physical performance (strength, speed, flexibility, endurance), and a significant decrease in the rate of injuries was recorded compared to the control group. The study recommends the adoption of these programs within the training plans because of their role in enhancing the efficiency of the player and preventing him from injuries
