Abstract

The aim of the study is to describe the methodology for applying an adapted set of training exercises for the formation of professionally significant physical qualities of mine rescuers, using standard equipment of sports halls of universities as part of practical classes in physical culture and sports. Based on the analysis of the current standards for the physical training of mine rescuers and the six-year experience of practical training of students in the Mining specialty, the Technological Safety and Mine Rescue focus (profile) from 2013 to 2018, on simulators in paramilitary mine rescue teams, we selected elements of special physical exercises, which, without any difficulties, can be included in the general set of exercises in the disciplines (modules) of physical culture and sports in all courses of study in the above or related specialties. Based on the results of the experiment, we made the following conclusions. The work of mine rescuers is unique in its physical requirements. They must have a high level of fitness in order to perform professional tasks with high quality and intensity over a relatively long period compared to other emergency services. The physical readiness of mine rescuers should include the following professionally significant and specific physical and psychophysical qualities: speed of reaction; coordination and reflex dexterity; flexibility; power static endurance; dynamic indicators of the body; accuracy of movements; muscle strength; motor reaction; overcoming fear of heights, fear of closed space; psychophysical stability and survival in extreme conditions. These qualities must be formed and developed in the process of regular training and special exercises, starting from the first year, as part of the educational process in the disciplines of physical culture and sports, and elective disciplines in physical culture and sports. The effectiveness of the set of special exercises in physical culture and sports for the formation and development of professionally significant skills of mining engineers-rescuers was experimentally proven. Specialized physical training in the sports hall of the university will lay the foundation for the formation of professionally significant qualities of a mine rescuer, form an understanding of the importance of their development, and help to determine the functional reserves of the body for the effective implementation of tasks in extreme situations.
