Purpose: theoretically and experimentally substantiate the model of the development of physical qualities of karatekas in the conditions of the training process in a sports school. Material and methods: young men (25 people) of 10th - 11th grades of Lutsk secondary schools took part in the study. Research methods: data analysis of special scientific and methodical literature, pedagogical methods, methods of mathematical statistics. Results: each training block includes 3 test exercises that were included in the karate training process. First and after the block was included in the training process, the young men, who were engaged in the experimental group, performed tests, and the results were collected. The results of the conducted pedagogical experiment revealed the effectiveness of the proposed model for the development of physical qualities of karatekas in the training process. Analysis of the data characterizing the state of physical fitness and physical development allows us to state that there is a significant improvement in indicators in the experimental group as compared to the control group. The results obtained, both in general and with special physical fitness in the experimental group, show that significant differences are observed in the tests: "running in place with a high hip lift", "running from a high start to 30 meters", "bending forward from a position lying on his stomach”,“raising straight legs to the sides”, “raising straight arms up while lying on his stomach”, “shuttle”running 3x10 m, “jumping with 180º rotation”, “three forward turns while maintaining balance”. In terms of physical readiness indicators in the experimental group, the results are higher than in the control group. The increase in results in the test "running in place with a high hip lift" was 17.88 % in the experimental group, 6.6 % - in the control; in the test "running 30 meters" - 14.4 % - in the experimental group, in the control group - 4.8 %; in the test "lifting from parterre to standing" - 30.8 % - in the experimental group, 7.9 % - in the control; in the test "bending forward from a sitting position, legs apart" - 25.0 % - in the experimental group, 93.0 % in the control; in the test "dilution of straight legs to the sides" - 35.0 % in the experimental group, 17.4 % - in the control; in the test "raising arms up from a prone position" - 43.6 % in the experimental group, 19.7 % in the control group. These tests determined those physical qualities that were purposefully developed in the training process of the experimental group separately according to the developed block model of the development of physical qualities. In terms of physical development, significant differences are observed in the experimental group in the indicator - the strength of the right and left hand, where the increase in results is 7.9 %, respectively; in the control group, there is an increase in the indicator of the strength of the right hand - 1.3 %. Conclusions: training blocks are implemented in one of three parts of training sessions, depending on the quality being developed, based on the active use of the in-line method of motor actions fulfillment and includes specially selected complexes of test exercises aimed at speed, flexibility, dexterity. The development of physical qualities among karatekas in the traini ng process provides effective indicators of physical fitness, testifies to the feasibility of using the proposed model to improve the process of physical training in sports schools.

The study included lambs of Mis population, divided into two groups (experimental and control) .All the animals fed with identical portions of meals consisted of alfalfa hay and fully concentrate mixtures. Meals are only different in the fact that the experimental group received organic selenium and contained 2000 mg of selenium / kg preparations, while the control group received inorganic selenium in the form of sodium selenite (Na2SeO3). Each animal consumed the same amount of selenium than 0.3 mg / kg of dry matter in the organic or inorganic form, which added in the mineral-vitamin premix. Diet of lambs has been ad libitum. The body weight of lambs in both (control and experimental groups), were balanced at 60 days (19.60 kg : 19.65 kg) and 100 days (31.06 kg : 32.88 kg). The result on average daily gain of the control and experimental groups were almost similar and there were no statistically significant differences (P> 0.05) in the measured values from 28 to 60 days (259.0 : 255.0 g), from the 60-100 days (286.0 : 330.0g), and on average from 28 to 100 days (274.0 : 297.0. g). Both treatment have no significant effect on lambs? performance (body weight and growth). The study results showed that the diet of lambs experimental group, based meal supplement organic selenium resulted in significantly higher concentration of Se in MLD, kidneys, liver and spleen, compared with the control group, which are consumed inorganic form of selenium. The differences between the Se content in MLD the experimental and control groups were on significance level P <0.05, while the differences in the content of Se in kidney, liver and spleen, the aforementioned treatments were statistically highly significant (P <0.01). So fattening lambs are better utilizing organic source of selenium, which is associated with better absorption of this element.

Purpose: to determine the dynamics of physical fitness of 5 grade pupils under the influence of outdoor games with elements of martial arts. Material and methods. The research was carried out in Kharkov, on the basis of a comprehensive school of I-III levels No 118. The study involved 40 students of 5t grade (20 experimental and 20 control groups). In the educational process, which was developed on the basis of the curriculum in physical culture for general educational institutions of grades 5-9 (approved by order of the Ministry of Education and Science of October 23, 2017 No 1407, we included outdoor games with elements of martial arts). During the research, the following methods were used: theoretical analysis and generalization of literary sources, Internet data, generalization of theoretical and practical experience of specialists in the field of physical culture and martial arts, pedagogical research, methods of mathematical statistics. Results: the analysis of the results obtained indicates that the indices of physical fitness are better in the experimental group than in the control group. The results of the arithmetic mean indicators when performing a 30-meter run in the experimental group were 6,45±0,1, in the control group 6,46±0,11 s; shuttle run test 4×9 m (s) in the experimental group – 11,74±0,16, in the control group - 11.83 ± 0.14; in the test, the long jump from the spot (cm), 146,55±3,05 and 146,55±3,05; indicators of the test performance long jump with a run (cm) in the experimental group are within 245-310 cm, in the control group 240-320; when throwing a small ball at a distance (m) in the experimental group – 22,45±1,12 and the control group – 20,15±1,05; indicators of pupils in the experimental and control groups in the test of raising the body in sitting for 30 seconds 23,4±0,82 and 20,65±0,85. Conclusions. Modern trends in physical education in general educational institutions require the teacher to search for new means and methods to expand the motor experience of students. This can be achieved through the targeted use of specialized outdoor games with elements of martial arts. After the pedagogical experiment, the level of competence of students in the experimental group is higher than that of the control group. The high level of competence in the experimental group ranges from 15 to 80 %, sufficient - from 20 to 50 % and average - from 15 to 35; in the control group, students predominantly have sufficient from 30 to 40 and average from 25 to 60 % and high from 15 to 60 %. The results of the indices of the coefficients of variation of the experimental and control groups are stable in terms of the general population in the tests: running 30 m (sec) – 7,42 and 7,79; shuttle run 4 × 9 m (s) 6,37 and 5,41; standing long jump (cm) 9,29 and 8,86; long jump with a run (cm) 6.77 and 7.87, moderately stable: throwing a small ball at a distance (m) 22,36 and 23,29; raising the body in a sitting position in 30 seconds (number of times) and 18,6.
