Abstract
Zoya Gorenko, Boris Ocheretko & Antonina KovelskayaPurpose: determine the features of the body component composition and the level of physical performance, as well as the structure of the correlation between these indicators in amateur athletes. Material & Methods: in conditions of the test with physical load with stepwise increasing power in the 71-st physically active person, the reaction of the cardio-respiratory system to physical activity. The body component composition was determined by the bioelectrical impedance method. Result: in amateur athletes, the relative VO2max and power ratings are positively correlated with the relative body water content and have a negative relationship with age, body weight, body mass index, fat content. Oxygen pulse with a high degree of probability positively correlated with body weight, body mass index, metabolic rate, fat-free mass, water content and predictable muscle mass in all body segments. Conclusion: Conducted studies indicate a sufficient level of aerobic capacity, overall performance, the efficiency of the cardiac cycle, the functioning of the О2-transport system and skeletal muscles ability to absorb oxygen from the amateur athletes, and excess fat tissue negatively affects physical performance, overall endurance and achieving high sports results in sports on the endurance.
Highlights
At the moment, despite the negative trends in the state of health of the population of Ukraine and the general lack of motor activity, increasing attention is paid to the creation of positive motivation for physical culture and health sports activities
It is known that the level of maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) is an objective criterion for assessing the aerobic capacity of the body and the overall physical performance of a person, which is widely used in the decision of issues of professional fitness, assessment of athletes training, diagnosis of the state of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems [1; 2]
We showed that the level of physical performance of amateur athletes depends on the length of the sports training and the age at which the amateur began to systematically train [8]
