Abstract

The article examines and analyzes the development of basic motor qualities in 30 female military members of the Armed Forces of Ukraine under the conditions of the legal regime of martial law. The average age of the participants was 30.8±2.6 years. The aim of the study was to analyze the development of strength, endurance, and coordination abilities. To achieve the stated goal, the following research methods were used: analysis of scientificmethodical literature, analysis of requirements for the development of basic motor qualities in modern combat conditions, summarizing the advanced experience in the theory and organization of physical training of military personnel, pedagogical testing, application of stabilography method, and methods of mathematical statistics. Results. The analysis of endurance development in female military personnel was conducted based on the performance in a 1 km run. The median time to complete the distance was 5.45 min, indicating a low level, and corresponded to only 58 out of 100 possible points on\ the rating scale. It was found that 23.3 % (n = 7) of the participants completed the distance in 6.35 min to 7.14 min and could score only 38 points or less. The median result in the strength endurance exercise test No. 21 was 78 points. It is important to note that among the study participants, no military servicewomen were found who could score the maximum number of points in the range of 95-100 for the performance of any control exercise. Our results indicate that the physical training program requires correction to improve the level of development of basic motor qualities in this category of military personnel. Analysis of static spatial stability of the body in female military personnel, which involved comparing the results of two tests with open and closed eyes, showed statistically significant changes in the majority of the investigated indicators. The center of pressure (CoP) sway length and CoP mean velocity showed an increase of 401.0 mm (p < 0.001) and an increase from 5.4 mm·s-1 t o 9.1 mm·s-1 respectively (p < 0.001) in the test with closed eyes, indicating the significant influence of the visual analyzer on static stability and the dynamics of the body’s CoP sway. Additionally, the quality of balance function, showed a statistically significant decrease to 72.3 % in the test with closed eyes compared to the result of 90.1 % in the test with open eyes (p < 0.001). The comprehensive study of static spatial stability in female military personnel included the Romberg test, which is a classical method for assessing static balance. It was found that 23.3 % of the participants had above-average results, 40 % were within the norm, and 36.7 % showed below-average results, indicating the need for improvement of methods for training static balance in this category. Conclusion. T he o btained r esults o f t he study of the development of basic motor qualities in female military personnel under the conditions of the legal regime of martial law are an important contribution to the scientific discourse and are relevant for the practical activities of military personnel.
