Abstract

The research aims to know the effectiveness of compound exercises based on kinetic coordination in learning the handstand skill on the parallel bars in men's artistic gymnastics, and to determine the superiority between the experimental and control groups in the study. The student used the experimental method as it is suitable for the research process. The experiment was conducted on second-year students in the DoPESS, College of Basic Education, University of Diyala, in the academic year 2023-2024. The sample consisted of 30 students, divided into two groups: 15 students in the experimental group and 15 students in the control group. Each group followed its specific guidelines and instructions. The experiment lasted for 8 weeks, with one educational unit per week. In conclusion, the compound exercises had a significant and clear effect on learning the handstand skill on the parallel bars in artistic gymnastics, and the mechanism of linking compound exercises with kinetic coordination was highly beneficial and advantageous in improving the students' learning of the handstand skill on the parallel bars.
