“…The conducted research showed that the current system of physical education at HEI of Ukraine is not effective enough to strengthen the health of students. Our results are confirmed by the conclusions of many scientists [1,4,12] who believe that the traditional form of physical education classes leads to a decrease in students' interest in physical education. Many scientists [7,16,20] argue that one of the most relevant forms of physical education organization is a sports-oriented form of training.…”

“…The system of modern medical higher education is aimed at training a highly qualified specialist who is able to perform significant amounts of work without reducing the quality and intensity and must have a high level of psychomotor qualities that reflects the requirements for physical and mental health, physical fitness and working efficiency of students, future doctors [1,2]. However, the analysis of the scientists' research results [3,4,5] showed a low level of physical fitness of most modern students and a constant increase in the number of people with impaired health both at the beginning and in the process of studying at Ukrainian higher education institutions (HEI).…”

“…World experience shows that the physical activity of a person throughout life prevents diseases and improves health. However, according to scientists [3,4,10], the difficult economic situation, developed in Ukraine in the post-Soviet period, negatively affected the development of physical education and mass sports at HEI. Every year the number of students training in special medical groups is steadily growing, the number of healthy students is decreasing.…”

The aim: Is to investigate the dynamics of the morphofunctional development and physical health of students who were engaged in strength sports while studying at university. Materials and methods: The study involved 360 male students of different faculties between the ages of 17 and 20. Two groups of students were formed: experimental and control groups. The EG students (n=40) were engaged in strength sports (powerlifting, athletics, Crossfit); the CG students (n=320) were training according to the current program of physical education. The study of the morphofunctional development of students was carried out taking account of the indicators of body length, body weight, handgrip test, heart rate, blood pressure, and vital capacity. The level of students’ health was examined according to the methodology of the assessment of the physical health level by G. L. Apanasenko. Results: It was established that strength sports at university affect physical development, functional abilities of the major systems of an organism, and the health state of future doctors in a more efficient way than the current program of physical education. It was found that the influence on the indicators of handgrip test, vital capacity, and heart rate of the EG students was the most prominent positive effect of sports. The evaluation of the calculated indexes (power index, life index) and the level of physical health confirmed this trend. Conclusions: The conducted research asserts the necessity of introducing the sports-oriented form of the physical training organization at the medical higher education institutions of Ukraine to strengthen the students’ health and to maintain the efficiency of the future doctors’ professional activity.

“…The difference in life expectancy of the male population in Ukraine and in Western Europe is 12.8 years, and premature mortality, especially among working-age men, is 3-4 times higher than in Europe. More than 70 % of the adult population of Ukraine has low and below average levels of physical health [6,7]. The structure of morbidity is dominated by chronic non-communicable diseases (cardiovascular diseases, malignant neoplasm, mental and endocrine disorders, allergic manifestations), which are characterized by negative dynamics.…”

The aim is to study the level and dynamics of instructor officers’ somatic health during the course of employment at Ukrainian higher education institutions with special training conditions Materials and methods: The study involved male instructor officers of the National Academy of Internal Affairs (Kyiv, Ukraine) of different age groups (n=103), who conduct training sessions with cadets – future police officers. The first age group (up to 25 years of age) comprised 8 instructors, the second one (26-30 years of age) – 11 instructors, the third one (31-35 years of age) – 14 instructors, the fourth one (36-40 years of age) – 16 instructors, the fifth one (41-45 years of age) – 19 instructors, the sixth one(46-50 years of age) – 17 instructors, and the seventh one (over 50 years of age) – 18 instructors. The study was conducted in 2017-2019. The level of instructor officers’ health was examined according to the methodology of G. L. Apanasenko, which provides for the calculation of body mass, vital, strength, and Robinson indices, as well as the duration of recovery of heart rate after standard exercise. The research methods: theoretical analysis and generalization of literature sources, pedagogical testing and observation, methods of mathematical statistics. Results: Insufficient level of health was revealed among instructor officers of all age groups – the level of somatic health of the vast majority of instructional staff (over 75 %) is assessed as “low” and “below average”, more than 95 % of instructors are below the “safe zone” according to the methodology of G. L. Apanasenko. Conclusions: The research shows that the current system of physical training of higher education institutions with special training conditions is ineffective and needs to be refined in order to strengthen the health of instructor officers, increase their efficiency and, in general, improve the effectiveness of training future police officers at higher education institutions.

“…Physical fitness is an important indicator of the health and physical education of students, which ensures their readiness to perform the physical activities provided by the curriculum at higher education institutions (HEI) [1,2,3]. Physical fitness characterizes the level of physical qualities development, which was achieved in the process of physical education [4,5,6].…”

The aim: Is to study the dynamics of students' physical fitness level while differentiating physical education classes in accordance with their somatic health and nosology of diseases. Materials and methods: The paper presents the results of a study of the dynamics of the physical fitness indicators of students in the process of physical education. The study involved 660 students between the ages of 17 and 25. Testing of students' physical fitness was performed using the method of control measurements. Research methods included the theoretical analysis and generalization of scientific and methodical literature, pedagogical observations, testing, pedagogical experiment, and the methods of mathematical statistics. Results: At the end of the experiment, the students of the experimental groups (both male and female) showed authentically (р<0.05–0.001) better indicators of the control tests than the students of the control groups. Conclusions: It was established that the introduction of the original program of differentiating classes in accordance with the level of students' somatic health and nosology of diseases into the process of physical education has a positive effect on their physical fitness level. This will help to improve their learning and future professional activities.
