The article is devoted to the search of the new, modern and effective methods for conducting the physical education classes for the students. The effectiveness of these methods is determined by an increase in the level of the development of the basic physical qualities and an increase in the volume of the motor activity of those who are engaged in it. The possibility of using the Kangoo Jumps exercise complexes on the physical education classes with the female students with an experience in aerobic exercise is considered. In the course of the studies a significant (P <0.05) increase in the rates of the girls' development of speed and endurance using Kangoo Jumps was found. The indices of the development of the muscle strength and flexibility in the experimental and control girls' groups increased slightly. The average body weight of the girls under study did not undergo significant changes during the study. You can recommend Kangoo Jumps exercises for the physical activity to people who have experience in step aerobics.
Purpose : Experts record the deterioration of the physical and cardiorespiratory fitness of students. Scientists recommend using fitness training in the practice of teaching students to increase cardiorespiratory fitness. The purpose of the research is to increase the level of cardiorespiratory fitness of female students by practicing Kangoo Jumps fitness in the practice of physical education. Material : participants are female students (n = 53, age - 19-20 years old). The study period was 10 months. Some females (n = 17) used Kangoo Jumps fitness in the practice of physical education. Indicators of physical and cardiorespiratory fitness were evaluated by the following methods: step test, Functional fitness assessment tests. Statistical data analysis was performed applying the Mann - Whitney U - test. Results : The test results (step test) revealed a significant (P <0.05) advantage of females practicing Kangoo Jumps fitness. The results are approximately the same for all females in most of the functional fitness assessment tests. The lowest weight gain (about 0.8 kg) is shown by females who used Kangoo Jumps fitness. Body mass indexes (from 1.8 to 2 kg.) were increased by students who used other types of fitness. Conclusions : It was revealed the possibility of increasing the cardiorespiratory fitness level of female students practicing Kangoo Jumps fitness in the practice of physical education. It was found the ability to control the increase in body weight of females.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
