Introduction: Providing troops with modern military equipment, technical means of transportation has greatly facilitated the implementation of many elements of military activities by servicemen, but at the same time contributed to some negative impact on their body and psyche, increased the need for general and special physical training [2, 3]. The need for integrated use of physical education and sports is well known and scientifically sound. The system of physical training of troops as a component of professional activity ensures the functioning of personnel in accordance with the requirements of physical fitness. Thus, the topical issue is to improve the content of physical training of cadets of military colleges of sergeants, taking into account the categories of servicemen.Purpose: Determining and improving the dynamics of general and special physical fitness of cadets, taking into account the categories of servicemen.Results: A study of the level of physical fitness of cadets of the military college of sergeants showed that during the training of cadets in the first year indicators of general and special physical fitness have positive changes, but no significant difference was found (p > 0.05).

The study examines the features of the professional activities of sports coaches. As this profession involves experiencing extreme situations, uncertainty, risk, time pressure and critical choices that affect a person's emotional state, hindering his rational thinking, and eventually a person may lose control of the situation, it is important to identify basic measures to normalize the relevant professional activities. The relevance of the study is due to the need to form professional competence in the activities of a sports coach, which is associated with physical training and direct responsibility for the health and sometimes the lives of their athletes. In order to understand the behavioral aspect in extreme situations that occur in sports training, the basic theoretical principles of sports coaches 'response to extreme situations were considered, researchers' conclusions on the behavior of sports coaches were analyzed and effective approaches to decision-making by coaches in extreme conditions were identified. To achieve this goal, methods of analysis and synthesis, descriptive method and content analysis method were used. The results of the study became the basis for determining the conceptual basis for the effectiveness of decision-making by coaches in extreme situations.

professional development. taking into account that the process of self-study occurs during independent work of students, one can note that self-study can be regarded as a goal and result of activity, whereas independent work is seen as a means to achieve the result. It is pointed out that under today's conditions independent work does not properly fulfil the tasks it should since it lacks purposefulness, focus on problem-solving, educational and methodological and technical support, is poorly monitored, insufficiently differentiated and variable. The paper emphasizes that unlike independent work, self-study involves not only activities aimed at absorbing, deepening and acquiring new knowledge during higher education study. It is also a form of continuing education for young specialists after graduation.Therefore, further research should focus on improving organization of future teachers' independent work.

У статті розглянуто проблематику підготовки майбутніх керівників форм фізичної підготовки, які відіграють провідну роль у процесі фізичного удосконалення військовослужбовців. Проаналізовано сучасні підходи в дослідженнях науковців в галузі фізичної культури і спорту щодо застосування інформаційно-комп’ютерних технологій у підготовці майбутніх фахівців в даному напрямку. Авторами визначено, що під час підготовки майбутніх керівників форм фізичної підготовки сучасні інформаційно-комп’ютерні технології забезпечують їх теоретичну та методичну підготовленість, виконують одну із основних функцій процесів інформатизації фізичної підготовки у Збройних Силах України.

The article highlights innovative technologies in the context of physical education as one of the main factors of postmodern society. The main features of innovative technologies as an effective way to develop personal competencies and the formation of value orientations are defined in the context of the study.  Physical education contributes to the development of individual personality traits, as well as forming the health-saving foundations of the development of society in the perspective of evolution. Postmodern trends in the formation of society are defined by new worldview manifestations, when people lose meaning in certain value aspects and realize that past achievements can be neutralized. The physical education of a person forms the idea of the value of health, both in the past and in the future. It is this principle that defined the research problem. It is determined that innovative technology is a sign of a postmodern society, because innovation is one of the characteristic features of the postmodern. Innovative technologies are most effective both in educational activities and in physical education. The theoretical and methodological foundations of the concept of postmodern society and innovative technologies were analyzed in the course of the study. Also identified the main aspects of physical education in the context of the modern dimension. The article explores the peculiarities of the use of innovative technologies in the aspect of physical education. In the course of the study we used methods of analysis and synthesis, descriptive method and method of content analysis. This study provided the basis for determining the conceptual basis for the effectiveness of innovative technologies as postmodern approaches in the process of physical education.
