CONCEPTUAL BASIS OF THE LEVEL OF PHYSICAL FITNESS OF STUDENTS OF YANKA KUPALA GRODNO STATE UNIVERSITY

Purpose of the study. Analysis of the level of physical fitness of the Yanka Kupala State University of Grodno students.

Research Methodology. The content of the article is devoted to a comparative analysis of the level of physical fitness of students of Grodno State University I Kupala. As a result, a comparative analysis of the preparation of three-year students was given. The study was conducted in study groups of a higher educational institution in the city of Grodno (Republic of Belarus). In the work, pedagogical tests were used to study the physical fitness of students, provided by the State Physical Culture and Health Center of the Republic, to monitor the basic physical abilities: running 30 meters; long jump from a place; raising the torso; pulling up on the crossbar (boys), bending the extension of the arms in an emphasis lying down; shuttle run
4 × 9 m; leaning forward from a sitting position; 1,500 m run (girls) and 3,000 m run (boys).

Results. During the study, there was a change in all indicators of physical fitness in both boys and girls from experimental groups. A comparative analysis of the overall average score turned out to be higher in young men of EG-2 and amounted to 4.87 ± 0.09 points (t = -2.85; p <0.05) than in peers from EG-1 – 4.47 ± 0 , 11 points, respectively. A comparative analysis of the overall average score was higher in EG-1 girls and amounted to 5.27 ± 0.09 points, and in EG-2 girls – 5.09 ± 0.09 points, respectively (p> 0.05).

The scientific novelty. Experimental data were obtained, on the basis of which there will be developed recommendations for teachers of the departments of physical education and sports on improving the physical qualities of young men and women.

Conclusions. The analysis of the test results helped to identify the most weaknesses in the physical preparation of students of the YSU GrSU Kupala, which leads to the need for the introduction of new means and forms of physical education of students aimed at increasing the level of identified lagging physical qualities, both for boys and girls.
