The influence of athletic gymnastics on the physical condition of men of different age groups

The article, based on the analysis and generalization of data from the source database and practical experience, determines the effectiveness of the impact of athletic gymnastics classes on the physical condition of men of different ages and body types. Attention is focused on issues related to the individualization of the training process and the correction of the physical condition of men of different age groups, the importance of various forms of manifestation of strength abilities in the process of training is emphasized. It is emphasized that the cardio-respiratory, neuromuscular and motor-mental systems of the body are subject to adaptive changes. Thus, the examination consists of four blocks of tests: physical development, motor fitness, functional state, psychomotor. It was determined that the elements of the content of the methodology of athletic gymnastics classes are determined by constitutional features, which include the following components: the focus of the classes, the nature of the load, the number of classes per week, the duration of one class, the number of repetitions, the intensity of the load, the power of the load, methodological principles, the main types of physical activity (strength exercises, aerobic exercises, stretching exercises). The methodology is composed of individual tasks that differ depending on the type of physique. Asthenic type - an increase in muscle strength, an increase in total body weight. Normosthenic type - an increase in body weight due to muscle hypertrophy, an increase in muscle strength. Hypersthenic type - a decrease in body weight due to adipose tissue, an increase in muscle strength endurance. A study of the features of the influence of athletic gymnastics on the physical condition of men of different ages showed that physical development indicators were most susceptible to changes in the first age group (16-25 years). The data reflecting the functional state changed the most in men of the second age group (26 - 35 years), the Harvard step test index value increased by 7.55, the barbell test indicator increased by 7.11 seconds. The greatest changes in motor fitness were achieved by men of the third age group (36 - 45 years): the average value of the bench press exercise increased by 13.89 kg; local abdominal muscle endurance increased by 6.22 (number of times). In the assessment of psychomotor skills, the greatest positive changes occurred in the participants of the experiment aged 16 - 25 years: proprioceptive muscle feeling improved by 4.45 kg. The max tapping test indicator increased by 8.33 (number of points).
