ФИЗИОЛОГИЧЕСКИЙ СТАТУС СТУДЕНТОВ С РАЗЛИЧНЫМ УРОВНЕМ ДВИГАТЕЛЬНОЙ АКТИВНОСТИ

Abstract

The study of the dynamics of physiological status indicators is the basic foundation of the structure of preventive health-improving measures aimed at restoring and strengthening the functional reserves of students. The aim of the study is to study the dynamics of physiological parameters in students with different levels of motor activity during the period of study at the university. Materials and methods. A prospective observation of the physical health of 615 students (255 boys and 360 girls) 17–22 years old was carried out during 2010–2019 using the Student Health Diary, according to the tasks of which anthropometric measurements were performed annually. The level of motor activity was determined by the results of the survey and was evaluated by the number of points scored: low, medium and high. Results. The study revealed that during the period of study at a university, most students undergo a change in their physiological status due to the level of physical activity: the higher it is, the more intense the growth of physiological parameters and the more stable the vegetative status. In senior courses, a quarter of students have a decrease in the level of physical activity, which is explained by the absence of physical education classes in the 4–5 courses in the educational process. As a result, students lose their accumulated functional reserves, a decrease in physiological parameters and the stability of the vegetative status are noted. It was revealed that girls lead a more active lifestyle, this is confirmed by a greater number of students with a high level of motor activity, a greater number of girls with growth in physiological status indicators and during the period of training, girls lose less physical activity than boys. The results of the study emphasize the importance of physical activity for students. Natural, i.e. physiological growth of indicators is carried out only with an average and high level of motor activity, and more intensively against the background of the latter. Also, during the study, students were identified who have a negative dynamics of physiological status. Conclusion The obtained results confirm that in order to maintain the physiological status at the optimal level, it is necessary to form the students’ physical culture throughout the entire period of study at the university, taking into account the level of health and physical fitness.
