Abstract

The basis of any activity is motivation, because a person's interest, activity, purposefulness, focus on satisfying one's needs, and determination of life orientation depend on it.

In connection with the fact that the goal of higher professional education is the training of highly qualified specialists, competitive on the labor market, working in their specialty, the requirements for high quality education, both for the system as a whole and for the level of teaching activity, in particular, are increasing. The obtained data reveal the structure of students' motivation and indicate the need to intervene in the process of its formation. Physical education is a special process that concerns the biological, social, and psychological activity of an individual. The traditional way of mastering the values of physical culture with the priority of physical training, aimed at the implementation of unified program credit standards, is only the basis for the formation of the entire system of values of physical culture, which are far from being exhausted only by the physical conditions of a young person and represent unity in the development of the spiritual and physical spheres. Motivation for physical activity is a special state of personality aimed at achieving an optimal level of physical fitness and work capacity. The process of forming interest in physical education and sports is a multi-stage process: from the first elementary hygienic knowledge and skills to deep psychophysiological knowledge of the theory and methods of physical education and intensive sports.
