Abstract
The article presents the comparative analysis results of body weight composition and physical fitness of 17-18-year-old students who are engaged in sports and not engaged in sports. Students with a higher volume of physical activity have a higher content of active cell mass, water in the body (by 1.62 % and 3.31%, respectively), a lower body mass index, and the content of total and visceral fat (by 1.59%, 4.98% and 1.44%, respectively). There is a high correlation with a higher level of physical fitness. For all seven motor tests that characterize the development of basic conditioning and coordination abilities, the indicators of athletes are higher. In general, 27.2 % of female athletes have an above-average level of physical fitness, the average level was found in 54.45 % and below the average in 18.18 %. It is significantly higher than the same indicators for non-sports students.

If we consider the level of general physical fitness (GPA) of female students who are not involved in sports, it is significantly lower compared to female athletes
Summary
One of the most important areas of higher education is to preserve and strengthen the health of students. Implementation of this direction is carried out in the developing process the humanities profile of "Physical culture and sport" and "Elective courses for physical culture and sport", in the system of self-study students, and sectional shape of the improving sports skills process. The main reason for this a low level of physical activity. In scientific research and in household use, the body mass index indicator is used. It is one of the main components of human somatic health. The upper limit of the norm of the body mass index is 25 kg / m2, after which pre-obesity begins
