Innovative approaches for evaluating physical fitness of servicemen in the system of professional training

Abstract

The article proves that the system of assessment and verification of physical qualities of military personnel plays a significant role in the professional skills training of military specialists. To evaluate military applied skills of the military personnel we have validated and implemented a number of physical exercises with the appropriate standards. Forming the complex of exercises we took into account the poll results of combatants who identified the main types of combat missions (march (30%), defense (19.2%), duty at checkpoints and guard (17.0%). The practical results allowed us to clarify that usage of personal protective equipment and weapon contributes to improving the professional skills of military personnel.
