“…The conducted profound analytical researches showed that the most popular kinds of motor functioning are: health run, combined with walking [8,21], athletic gymnastic [9,10], swimming [14,16], sports and outdoor games [8,15]. In groups of students, who practiced breathing exercises, positive influence on respiratory system was registered [8, 16, 17, 18, and 19].…”

Abstract. Purpose: To give scientific foundation and experimental proof of physical culture-health related technology for prophylaxis of respiratory system disorders. Material: in the research students: girls (n= 43) and boys (n=40) participated. In process of academic physical culture classes students practices: dozed health walks )as warming up), respiratory exercises by methodic of A.N. Strelnikova and G. Childers (which were used as main corrective mean of respiratory system's functional state), health swimming (for motor functioning intensification) outdoor games (as mean of active leisure). Results: The conducted research witness about general positive influence of the worked out technology of disorders' prophylaxis on students' somatic health. The technology was constructed on the base of synthesis of the most effective means of health related physical culture. In its basis we put generalized data about their impact. Main characteristic of this technology is its orientation on definite health improvement tasks in compliance with peculiarities of trainees' contingent. The technology permits to present its content and orientation as integral mean of strengthening of organism's functional potentials as well as ensuring of high effectiveness of students' educational process. It permits to significantly reduce impacts of respiratory system's disorders. Conclusions: The worked out technology permits to present its content and orientation as integral mean of strengthening of organism's functional potentials.

AbstractObjectivesThe improvement in the/reaction time is important, as it is an indicator of cognitive function. Therefore, there is a need, especially for adolescents in the form of techniques or courses that can improve the reaction time. Yoga was found to cause a better improvement in the health of the individuals. The present study intended to show the effects of Bhramari pranayama (Bhr.P) on reaction time in the healthy adolescents.MethodsOf the 730 potential subjects screened, 520 apparently healthy adolescents randomly assigned to either the Bhr.P group (n-260) or control group (n-260). Bhr.P group practiced the bhramari pranayama for 3 days in a week for 6 months. The Auditory Reaction Time (ART) and the Visual Reaction Time (VRT) were assessed before and after Bhr.P pranayama practice.ResultsBhr.P group shows significant shortening of response time in both VRT (from 267.13 ± 52.65 to 249.87 ± 39.41 ms) and ART (from 237.42 ± 48.12 to 227.91 ± 34.60 ms) after 6 months of Bhr.P practice. In control group subjects, no such significant changes were found (p > 0.05).ConclusionsShortening of RT implies an improvement in the information processing and reflexes. This beneficial effect of Bhr.P on reaction time can be used for improving cognitive function in the adolescents for their academic performances.
