Use of jiu-jitsu tools in healthy fitness directions with primary and second mature women

Abstract

The work examines the influence of the health-improving direction of fitness with elements of jiu-jitsu on indicators of physical fitness and on functional indicators of women of the first and second mature age, with the help of a developed set of exercises. The purpose is to experimentally prove the effectiveness of using jiu-jitsu elements in health-related fitness areas with elements of martial arts with women of the first and second mature age.
 The research was conducted based on the Foxschool Sports Club, Kharkiv. Two groups (control - CG, and experimental - EG), 10 women in each, aged 25-50, participated in the study. Training was held three times a week, lasting 60 minutes. The results of tests on physical fitness and functional state before the experiment revealed that there are no significant differences in the condition of women, that is, the groups are identical. The results of testing after the experiment showed an improvement in the indicators of CG women, compared to the initial ones, but they turned out to be reliable only for three indicators out of nine. Instead, the results of the final tests in EG showed an improvement in many indicators, compared to the initial ones. Seven indicators out of nine turned out to be reliable. To confirm the effectiveness of the complex with jiu-jitsu elements, we used calculations using mathematical statistics, namely the calculation of Student's t-criterion.
 It was found that the proposed set of exercises has a positive effect on the physical and functional condition of women. According to the obtained results, there was a tendency to increase the average indicators of physical and functional condition in the studied groups.
