FEATURES OF PHYSICAL FITNESS OF WOMEN OF THE FIRST PERIOD OF MATURE AGE WITH DIFFERENT BODY TYPES

Abstract

The relevance of the research topic. In the context of considering the specifics of health-improving fitness classes with mature women, theorists and practitioners of physical education show unanimity in recognising the primary measures in this regard as motivating for physical culture and health activities, as well as monitoring the physical fitness of those who are engaged in order to stratify them by the level of physical condition within the framework of programming of physical culture and health classes. The purpose of the article is to determine the peculiarities of physical fitness of women of the first period of mature age with different body types. Methods: theoretical analysis of special scientific and methodological literature, pedagogical testing, methods of mathematical statistics. Results. It was found that, in general, women aged 23-26 years were able to hold the shoulder belt for 38 seconds to 60 seconds during the first test. The mean value in the total sample of women was 48.2 seconds with a standard deviation of 7.75 seconds (V=16.1 %). In the second leg hold test, the mean time was 72 seconds with a standard deviation of 9 seconds (V=16.1 %). The minimum possible holding time was 58 seconds and the maximum was 84 seconds. For the third test, the women were able to lift and hold their torso 45 degrees off the floor for 52 seconds on average (S=6.55; V=12.6 %). The minimum result was 40 seconds, and the maximum was 59 seconds. The fourth test (lifting and holding the torso while reaching forward with the arms) was performed by women unequally in the time range from 31 seconds to 66 seconds. The mean value was 49.1 seconds with a standard deviation of 13.34 seconds (V= 27.2 %). In the fifth test, spinal flexibility, the women in the first period of adulthood reached a mean height of 26.3 cm with a standard deviation of 3.54 cm (V=13.5 %). In general, their spinal flexibility and ability to perform a variety of movements is evidenced by the minimum height of 20 cm and the maximum height of 30 cm in the sample. The maximum forward bend (VI) test showed a mean value of 9.1 cm with a standard deviation of 0.89 cm (V=9.8 %). In the last test, the supine arm flexion and extension test, the women were able to perform the exercise on average 8.5 times with a standard deviation of 2.43 times (V=28.6%). The minimum number of times was 5, and the maximum was 13. Conclusions. Comparison of groups of women with different body types showed that women with normosthenic body type showed the highest results in most tests. Women with an asthenic body type showed average results in most tests. Finally, women with a picnic body type
