Peculiarities of officers’ fitness shape / Serhii Romanchuk, Andriy Yavorskyy // Journal of physical education and sport. - 2015. - Vol. 15, is. 3. - P. 441-445. (Scopus)http://repository.ldufk.edu.ua/handle/34606048/10489To explore the participation and attitude of institutionalised elderly towards Physical Activity. The aim of the research is to study functional fitness shape of officers who are graduates from both higher military educational establishments and higher educational establishments. The article presents results of research on assessment of body’s adaptation abilities of officers from both higher military educational establishments and higher educational establishments. Fitness shape parameters of graduate officers at rest and after muscle loading have been determined. This has shown that for such parameters as oxygen consumption, oxygen consumption for every kilogram of body mass and oxygen ventilation equivalent there exist significant differences in fitness shape of officers from higher military educational establishments and from higher educational establishments which make up 12,82%, 9,61%, and 8,61% correspondingly. After muscle loading the difference is evident for such parameters as pulse pressure, oxygen consumption, and carbon dioxide emission (11,09%, 10,57% and 10% correspondingly). It has been found that higher educational institutions do not pay enough attention to improvement of level of fitness and performance efficiency which has negative effect on graduate officers’ physical condition. Four tendencies have been specified and theoretical grounding has been provided for the main methods of increasing officers’ performance efficiency and their adaptation in extreme environment conditions.enofficersadaptation abilitiesphysiological datafitness shapArticle
