Abstrakt: Data about peculiarities of organization of motor control and brain functional asymmetry pattern in highly trained judo wrestlers are presented. It has been shown that in athletes the right hemisphere is predominant in processing of both speech and visual-spatial information, while high competition results in wrestlers with left-side stand correlates with prevalence of the left hemisphere in speech perception. It is suggested that high sport results in wrestlers are due to formation of novel long-term skills, reorganization of motor control, and interhemispheric interaction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
