Introduction. Today, when assessing the importance of physical education in student age, it is important to take into account its need in solving problems of general physical education and physical development. It is necessary to proceed from the fact that motor activity is a natural need the organism, an indispensable condition of physical development, strengthening of health and increase resistance of the organism to adverse conditions. However, special studies the content general physical education, motor mode of students convincingly show the insufficient satisfaction of these needs. Lack of meaningful motor activity inevitably leads to irreparable losses in physical development, weakening of the body's defenses and serious health problems. Therefore, the issues improving the content, forms and methods of physical education students in higher education institutions remain relevant. The article considers and analyzes the importance sectional classes Crossfit, one of the most popular types physical activity among student youth. Crossfit is widely used as a means developing physical qualities and abilities. In addition, Crossfit classes cause a number changes in the functional systems of the body those involved. Hypothesis of the study is that cross-section Crossfit classes will improve the physical condition of students of higher education institutions. Research purpose to determine the impact of cross-section Crossfit classes on the physical condition of students. Research methods and materials. Research methods: theoretical analysis and generalization of data of scientific and methodical literature, pedagogical observation, method of anthropometry, functional research methods, pedagogical experiment, pedagogical testing, methods of mathematical statistics. The study involved 32 students studying at Sumy State Pedagogical University A.S. Makarenko, who belong to the main medical group and have no abnormalities in health. Results. The data of experimental research influence of the developed technique section classes Crossfit on indicators a physical condition of students are presented and its efficiency is proved. As a result of the study, it was determined that Crossfit classes help to reduce the heart rate of students, increase the indicators of VСL and tests Stange, Gencha, Rufier. There is a significant improvement in the results of tests on the strength the muscles the upper extremities, speed, agility and endurance. The average level physical health of young men has significantly improved, which indicates the transition of indicators from below the average functional class to the average, most young men have reached a safe level of health. Conclusions. 1. With the use of cross-section Crossfit classes, you can solve the problem of optimizing the educational process of physical education in higher education. 2. The use of Crossfit sectional classes in the IHE proved the effectiveness of the proposed method, as there are statistically significant improvements in the functional indicators of students, indicators of physical fitness and level of physical health.

The article examines the  influence  of mobile  games on the  recreational component of  personality development. A mobile game is a deliberate activity aimed at achieving the goal. Mobile games occupy a leading place both in physical education and in the process of physical rehabilitation, recreation, allowing to effectively solve medical and educational tasks at a high emotional level. A mobile game as a recreational tool has a number of qualities, among which the most important place is high emotionality. Emotions in the game are complex. This is a pleasure from the muscular work in the game, from the feeling of vivacity and energy, from the possibility of friendly communication in the team, from achieving the goal set in the game. During a mobile game, complex effects on motor activity and the nervous system are realized. The mobile game refers to such manifestations of gaming activity, in which the role of movements is clearly expressed. For mobile games characterized by creative, active motor actions, motivated by the plot. They are aimed at overcoming various difficulties on the way to achieving the goal. The advantage of mobile games before exercises is that the game is always associated with initiative, fantasy, creativity, proceeds emotionally, stimulates motor activity. The game uses natural movements for the most part in an entertaining, unobtrusive form. Moving games, as a rule, do not require participants of special training. The same mobile games can be played under different conditions, with a greater or lesser number of participants, according to different rules. The most important result of the game is the emotional upsurge. It is thanks to this wonderful feature that mobile games, especially with the elements of the competition, more than other forms of physical education, meet the needs of the body. In the course of mobile games, self-control, self-control, correct response to failure are formed.

The content of the article is to implement and implement a technological block of the methodological system of application of fitness technologies in the educational process of physical education of students. It has been researched that the formation of the technological block of the methodological system provides diagnostics of students' health status, physical development and physical fitness during exercise of fitness technologies. It is determined that the formation of the technological block of the methodological system depends to a certain extent on the level of motor activity of students. Motor activity is one of the factors that determine the level of metabolic processes in the body and the state of its bone, muscle, and cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Accordingly, the distribution of students by the level of physical activity is quite promising, but from a practical point of view, it is a direction that is difficult to implement during the exercise of fitness technologies in the educational process of physical education. It was found out that the formation of the technological block of the methodological system should take into account that self-study should occupy an important place in the system of physical improvement of students. These can be complexes of exercise at home, in the open air, during rest, morning hygienic gymnastics, wellness walking and jogging, skiing, ice skating and cycling, training on simulators, sports games at the place of residence, hiking and excursions, traveling to mountains, other cities and countries, etc. The introduction of the methodological system in the technological block also implies the activation of aesthetic education to the formation of posture, physique, beauty of its physical appearance through training of fitness technologies.

The article reveals perspectives on sports games aimed at physical development and development of coordination skills of adolescents. Physical exercise has a positive effect on such psychological properties of students as memory, thinking, attention, speed and accuracy of reactions, logic, perception of motoric of one’s own body and the sense of external space. The basic statement of neuropsychology that the basic intelligence of a person being physical intelligence is revealed. Development of coordination skills is an important qualitative aspect of motor activity, reflecting the level of physical fitness. Purposeful formation of coordination abilities enables to solve a number of problems of physical, aesthetic and intellectual improvement of adolescent students. The use of sports games in the process of physical education promotes a favourable development of motor coordination, and thus helps increase the level of motor readiness of adolescents during sports activities, as well as provides the highest efficiency in the process of physical development.

Introduction. The work of many employees in the service sector is associated with a constant stay in a forced working position sitting at the computer for up to 60-80% of the time of the entire work shift, which leads to fatigue. The rate of fatigue depends on the specifics of work: it is much more likely to occur when working with monotony, muscle tension. An important role in the appearance of fatigue is also played by the attitude of a person to the work performed. The aim of study is to study the motor activity of knowledge workers in social service centers for the development of preventive measures aimed at reducing hypokinesia and hypodynamia during the work shift. Materials and methods. The following methods were used in the study: questionnaire and working day timing, calculation methods to determine whether the actual body weight corresponds to the ideal one using the Broka’s index and the Ketle’s index. The study involved employees of the integrated social service center "Raduga" in Bugulma. Results. An assessment of the motor activity of employees of the social service center of the population was made, and it was concluded that the problem of hypokinesia and hypodynamia is relevant and significant for employees of social service centers of the population both in their daily activities and during the work shift. Most of the employees showed an increase in actual body weight compared to the ideal one, which is to some extent due to hypokinesia and hypodynamia both during the working day and at home. Conclusions. Preventive measures aimed at compliance with the principles of rational nutrition and a healthy lifestyle, work and rest regimes, high-quality preliminary and periodic medical examinations are proposed.

Adventure-physical education has been proposed to promote adolescents’ physical development, but little is known about physical activity levels during such lessons. Using the System for Observing Fitness Instruction Time, we observed students’ (ages 11–14 years) physical activity levels in co-educational classes during 43 adventure-physical education lessons at seven public schools. The mean percentage (±SD) of time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was 28.3% (±16.3%). The greatest percentage of lesson time was spent in two activities—high elements (24.1% ± 36.5%) and initiatives (22.3% ± 32.4%). When data were aggregated across all lessons, 40.0% of the time in high elements and 13.7% of the time in initiatives was spent in MVPA. Of all MVPA time, 31.5% occurred in high elements and another 12.6% in initiatives. Compared with traditional physical education lessons, less time is spent in MVPA during adventure lessons. Efforts to increase MVPA should target high elements and initiative activities.

Insufficient Physical Activity

OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence and correlates of insufficient physical activity in adolescents in Peru. METHODS: We used a self-administered questionnaire developed from Global school-based Student Health Survey to collect information from secondary school students in North Lima and Callao in 2015. We carried out Poisson regression with robust variance using generalized linear models to estimate the crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (APR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) of insufficient physical activity for its correlates. RESULTS: We have found that 78% of the adolescents did not meet the global recommendation of the World Health Organization on physical activity in the last week before the survey. Female respondents (APR = 1.13, 95%CI 1.04–1.21), respondents who perceived themselves as overweight (APR = 1.10, 95%CI 1.03–1.18), and respondents who consumed insufficient vegetables and fruits [no vegetables (APR = 1.30, 95%CI 1.06–1.59), no fruits (APR = 1.15, 95%CI 1.00–1.31) as compared to those who consumed ≥ 2 servings every day in the last seven days] were more likely to report insufficient physical activity. Adolescents who worked after school (APR = 0.92, 95%CI 0.84–0.99), had physical education classes five times per week (APR = 0.94, 95%CI 0.88–0.99), and had parental supervision (APR = 0.92, 95%CI 0.87–0.98) were less likely to report insufficient physical activity. CONCLUSIONS: Sex, work after school, perceived body weight, physical education class, parental support, and healthy dietary behaviors were associated with insufficient physical activity. Attempts to improve physical activity should look for ways to enhance leisure-time physical activity, parental support, physical education classes, healthy dietary behaviors, and normal body weight maintenance in adolescents with integrated efforts from the family and school.

We examined the effects of injections of systemic [lipopolysaccharide (LPS), 2.5 mg/kg or 50 pg/kg ip] or local (turpentine, 100 microl sc) inflammatory stimuli on fever, motor activity, body weight, and food intake in tumor necrosis factor (TNF) double receptor (TNFR)-knockout mice. A high dose of LPS resulted in exacerbated fevers in TNFR-knockout mice compared with wild-type mice for the early phase of fever (3-15 h); the late phase of fever (16-24 h) and fevers to a low dose of LPS were similar in both groups. Motor activity, body weight, and food intake were similarly reduced in both groups of mice after LPS administration. In response to turpentine, TNFR-knockout and wild-type mice developed virtually identical responses to all variables monitored. These results suggest that 1) TNF modulates fevers to LPS dose dependently, 2) TNF does not modulate fevers to a subcutaneous injection of turpentine, and 3) knockout mice may develop cytokine redundancy in the regulation of the acute phase response to intraperitoneally injected LPS or subcutaneously injected turpentine.

There are numerous publications in the literature reporting physical development and motor performances of children of different ages based on sex and various environmental factors. However, there are not many publications on the birth season effect. The aim of the study was to evaluate the differences among children in physical development and motor performances based on age and birth season. Physical development described by body height and body weight, in addition to motor performance indicators including the twenty-metre dash, standing broad jump, six minutes of continuous running, throwing with a stuffed ball, and obstacle race-tests were studied. The survey included the participation of 426 girls. From the group the seven-, eight-, and nine-year olds numbered 148, 191, and 87 respectively. The group of girls who were born in winter, spring, summer and autumn numbered 114, 110, 89 and119 respectively. The tested data were evaluated with unitrate analyses of variance using SPSS statistical package. Mean value, standard error, standard deviation and coefficient of variation were calculated. The significance of differences between mean values was evaluated using “t” test. Differences with an error below 5% were considered to be significant. Furthermore, a correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between season of birth, body development and motor-related performance data. Age, body height, body weight, throwing a stuffed ball in one hand, twenty-metre dash, six minutes of continuous running, and obstacle race-test are interdependent variables of development and motor performances of young girls of this age. Data from the study results show that the children group included in the tests was quite homogenous in body height, but heterogeneous in body weight and motor performances. Physical development and four of the five evaluated sport skills were affected by the birth season. Development and motor performances of the summer- and autumn-born girls are generally better than those born in winter or spring. Differences are significant except for the obstacle race-test. Age, body height, body weight, throwing with a stuffed ball in one hand, twentymetre dash, six minutes of continuous running, and the obstacle race-test seem to be interdependent variables of development and motor performances of young girls of this age.
