This article shows the importance of extracurricular activities in the life of a student of the Polytechnic of Zagreb (TVZ). The emphasis of the article is on the kinesiological activities selected by students during their free time when unoccupied by classroom activities, as well as the utilization of free time for the purposes of achieving better success during the training process, in competitions and subsequently on the students’ psychophysical state. It is shown that kinesiological contents occupy the mere fifth place of interest of Zagreb students (24.5 %) as a form of leisure (Bouillet 2008). In order to increase students’ general health and raise the level of physical activity, it is essential to meet the biological needs for movement, and with it improve their anthropological status.
