ВПЛИВ БОРОТЬБИ ДЗЮДО НА ФІЗИЧНУ ПІДГОТОВЛЕНІСТЬ ЗДОБУВАЧІВ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ ТЕХНІЧНИХ ЗАКЛАДІВ

At the present stage, the development of higher education in the field of physical culture depends on the level of activity and consciousness of higher education students, their attitude to physical education as an academic discipline. But at the same time, there are certain shortcomings in the organisation of the educational process that negatively affect students’ attendance at practical physical education classes. That is, in modern society, in particular within higher education institutions, there is a need for innovative ideas to interest students in various forms of physical activity. The proposed new modern type of motor activity – judo wrestling – fully meets these requirements. The purpose of the article is to study the influence of judo wrestling on the physical fitness of students. Research methods: theoretical; empirical; questionnaires; pedagogical testing; pedagogical experiment; methods of mathematical statistics. Results. As a result of application of judo wrestling in physical culture classes during the academic year, a significant statistically significant (p<0,05–0,01) increase in the results of pedagogical tests of physical fitness was observed in the experimental group. Namely, the average value of indicators in the tests: “Running for 100 m” improved by 1,18 s; “Running for 3000 m” by 1,90 min; “Long jump from a standing position” by 15,91 cm; “Pulling up on a crossbar” by 5,10 times; “Shuttle run 4х9 m” by 0,72 s; “Torso tilt from a sitting position” by 3,07 cm; “Raising the torso to a sitting position in 1 minute from a supine position” by 11,01 times; “Romberg test” by 4,71 seconds. The indicators of the control group also had positive dynamics, but did not reach statistically significant differences (p>0,05). This indicates that the introduction of judo wrestling in the educational process of physical education of applicants of the experimental group contributes to the improvement of their physical fitness. Thus, comparative analysis of data of experimental and control groups allowed to state that application of judo wrestling at physical culture classes during academic year had more effective influence on indicators of physical fitness of EG students in comparison with CG students.
