Abstract

Health/educational professionals indicate that the physical and functional fitness of majority modern students doesn't meet the regulatory requirements. Professionals recommend using cardiorespiratory fitness-training in students' physical education to solve this problem. The aim of study: comparative analysis of various types of aerobic fitness-training that significantly increasing of cardiorespiratory fitness of female students. Materials and methods: Participants: female students (n=47), second-year students of SFU, aged 19.32±0.45 years, divided into three groups. Group 1 (n=15) practiced functional training (CrossFit). Group 2 (n=16) practiced step aerobics. Group 3 (n=16) practiced Kangoo-Jump fitness training. To assess of cardiorespiratory fitness of students, the following tests were used: running test (running 2000 m), Burpee test, Jumping Jack test. Statistical data analysis using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows 17.0 and ANOVA single-factor test for independent measurements was performed. Results: A significant (p ≤0,05) advantage of group 3 in the findings of the Jumping Jack» test was found after the end of aerobic training. There was also a significant (p ≤0,05) advantage of group 1 and group 3 in the findings of the Burpee test. The findings of the groups in the running test (running 2000 m) did not differ significantly. Conclusion: The highlights indicate that regular aerobic fitness-training Kangoo-Jump contributes to the formation of a higher level of cardiorespiratory (functional) fitness of female students to perform various aerobic loads, compared to other types of aerobic fitness-training.
