Визначення емоційного стану жінок похилого віку на заняттях нетрадиційними видами гімнастики

Abstract

The political, economic, healthcare and demographic situation in our time is not easy. In this regard the need for regular physical activity to maintain people’s health, regardless of age, is becoming an increasingly urgent issue. In today’s realities, there is a growing need to create new and further develop existing areas of recreational gymnastics for different age groups. Historically formed systems of gymnastics and long-term practice of their application prove their effectiveness in preserving physical and mental health of people, which has now become significant. Based on this, the purpose of our article was to determine the impact of training in non-traditional types of gymnastics on the emotional state of older women, which is especially important during military operations. The objectives of the study are to determine the emotional state caused by practicing non-traditional types of gymnastics, and even to form a stable desire to perform gymnastic exercises regularly. The study was conducted in groups of elderly women aged from 55 to 72. The survey method was used to determine the correctness of the chosen direction of training in non-traditional types of gymnastics. Based on the data obtained during the surveys, it can be concluded that training in non-traditional types of health-improving gymnastics has a positive effect on the emotional state of older women and can be used as a means of helping to maintain health in difficult times. This seems to be extremely necessary, especially in the current difficult political situation, to preserve the health and improve the quality of life of older women.
