His scientific activity can be divided into two main categories. The first focuses on the theory of sports training across various sports disciplines. Research in this area primarily covers the model of the champion, the exploration of relationships between motor skills and external environments, comprehensive methodological control (including sports fight analysis, recording of training loads, and progression of sports performance), and testing of general and specific fitness levels. The disciplines covered include artistic gymnastics, bodybuilding, swimming, football, and combat sports.

The second area of research interest centers around the relationship between physical activity, particularly recreational and health-oriented forms, and broadly understood safety, expanded to include aspects of health threat prevention within the domains of medicine, physiotherapy, and prophylaxis.
