The article provides the results of determining the state of the cardiorespiratory system and the level of physical fitness of the 1st year students of The Housing and Communal College.
As a result of the conducted research, “below the average” level of functioning the cardiorespiratory system was defined at students. So, measures of the functional state of the respiratory system (Skibinski index) when compared with the assessment scale are equal to the score - 2 points, which corresponds to “below the average” level. Measures of the state of the cardiovascular system regulation (Robinson index) when compared with the scoring scale at students of both study groups are equal to the score - 3 points, which corresponds to the “average” level.
The state of the cardiorespiratory system of boys is mainly higher than girls’ one in the sexual aspect. The exception is the results of measuring systolic blood pressure, where there is an opposite trend - the indicators of girls are higher than the results of boys. At the same time, the noted differences are valid only in indicators of the state of the respiratory system (p 0,05) in indicators of the cardiovascular system.
The data of the conducted research indicates the “average” level of physical fitness at boys, which on average equals the “good” and “sufficient” levels at girls, which on average equals the score “satisfactory”. So, the boys have indicators for the development of all physical qualities that meet the assessment “good”. Speed, high-speed and power qualities and endurance meet the assessment “satisfactory”, strength and agility - the assessment “good” at girls.
The physical fitness of boys is significantly higher than girls’ one in the sexual aspect (p 0,05).
Thus, the results of the research indicate the feasibility of introducing the special physical exercises aimed at improving the functional state of the cardiorespiratory system and developing basic physical qualities into the physical education process of the 1st year students of institutions of higher education of the I-II level of accreditation.
