The complex influence of physical education and wellness technologies on the physical fitness of female students of special medical groups

Importance . The inevitable discrepancy in the development and manifestation of physical abilities of a person with disabilities caused by an underlying disease and, as a result, a decrease in physical activity, requires the search for traditional and non-traditional means of complex effects of physical education and recreation activities on the body of female students involved in special medical groups (SMG). In our opinion, the inclusion of elements of Chinese recreational gymnastics, aquagymnastics and various types of recreational walking in the content of physical education and wellness technology will help solve the above-mentioned problem. At the same time, during the implementation of the developed technology, mandatory monitoring of the dynamics of physical fitness indicators is assumed as one of the components of the health potential of female students involved in a special medical group. The purpose of the study is to identify the impact of physical education and recreation activities, including elements of Chinese gymnastics, aquagymnastics and various types of walking, on the development of physical abilities of students with disabilities. Materials and Methods . Based on the analysis of scientific publications, the focus of the impact of non-traditional means of motor activity on specific physical abilities of a person with disabilities was detailed, motor tests determining the level of development of physical abilities were clarified, taking into account deviations in the state of health. According to the results of the tests, the dynamics of indicators of physical fitness of students with disabilities in the process of physical education and recreation activities was revealed. Results and Discussion . The dynamics of the development level of the following physical qualities is studied: the assessment of the aerobic endurance of the subjects, the flexibility of joint mobility and the degree of elastic capabilities of muscles, etc. Calculations are performed using the Cooper test. Conclusion . Summing up the results of the conducted research, the following should be summarized: the introduction of non-traditional means of motor activity into the content of physical culture and wellness technology has a complex effect on the physical fitness of the studied contingent of students.
