The aim of the study was to find out partial quantitative changes of students’ motor abilities, produced by applied 12-week combined fitness program. All participants were health sport faculty male students with ages 19 ± 1. The experimental program included a three times work out per week, two times resistance, weight training and once a week plyometric training. In order to detect potential changes we conducted paired sample t-test. The obtained results showed that the program has made statistically significant changes on 14 of 18 tests. The highest level of transformation has made on variables for static and repetitive strength assessment. The improvement was between 18 and 55 percent. Also, less, but no less significant changes have been produced on explosive power, flexibility and segmental speed tests. We think, that fine adjusted training load to all participants, respectively, an individualised approach, contributed to exceptional results. Our opinion is that this kind of fitness program should be part of regular faculty program during all educational period, in order to enhance students’ motor capacities and make their way to the finish line easier.

Martial arts (MA) and combat sports (CS) demand significant physical, mental, and emotional engagement in both training and competition. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ), known for its intricate mastery requirements, operates within a performance-oriented climate where unmet goals can lead to diminished interest. Investigating the motivational drivers behind continued participation in BJJ is thus pertinent. This study aims to explore motivational factors among BJJ practitioners. A total of 70 participants, including 30 women (43.3%) and 40 men (56.7%) aged 15 to 60+, with training experience ranging from 0-1 year to 10+ years, completed the Sports Motivation Scale (SMS-6). The survey assessed factors influencing their engagement in BJJ. Analysis suggests that gender differences may contribute to variations in amotivation within the sport. Higher competitive experience participants valued factors like interest/enjoyment, competence, and fitness more than social status and appearance, unlike lower competitive experience participants. Notably, individuals with higher competitive experience exhibited lower motivational scores on the assessed subscale factors compared to lower competitive experience participants. The study's findings indicate that individuals with significant competitive experience attribute greater significance and commitment to their involvement in BJJ. Additionally, the results show that women exhibit a slightly lower amotivation score compared to men, suggesting a marginal decrease in mens enthusiasm for practicing the sport.
