<p><em>The main goal of the work</em> is to study the level of physical fitness of  students of music specialties. The objectives of the study reflect the gradual achievement of the goal. It also gives the analysis of the static strength endurance of the muscles of the body <em>Methods of research</em>: analysis and generalization of data in literature, pedagogical methods of research (experiment, testing), methods of mathematical statistics. 154 students of the first and second year of the Vinnitsa School of Culture and Arts named after M. D. Leontovich participated in the pedagogical experiment. Such as students of the specialty “Music Art”, the specializations “piano, orchestra, string instruments” (violin, viola, cello, double bass); “Orchestral wind instruments and percussion instruments” (flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, saxophone, horn, trumpet, trombone, tubo, percussion instruments), “folk instruments” (accordion, accordion, domra, bandura, guitar); “Vocal, choral conducting”.  <em>Results</em><em>.</em><strong> </strong> It is noted that the level of work capacity, health status and occupations depends on the effectiveness of their physical education. It is possible to increase the effectiveness of the process of physical education of students through optimization and development of professionally important physical qualities. Student’s educational and further activity of the specialty "Musical art" provides an unpleasant work pose and peculiarities of the manifestation of physical qualities, which level of development depends on the effectiveness of professional activity.  <em>Findings.</em> The estimation of indicators of the physical readiness of students with the use of battery tests, which characterize the static strength endurance of the muscles of the torso is evaluated. Evaluation of the students' physical fitness made it possible to determine the general tendency of significant deterioration of the indicators for the period of study. </p>

The relevance of the study is due to the fact that for biathlon, which is a seasonal sport, it is typical to carry out training based on annual macrocycles. Individual preparation differs in the duration of its individual stages, namely the periods, the number of main and preparatory competitions. The purpose of the study is to analyze the issues of managing the process of physical training of biathletes based on an analysis of literary sources Material and methods. The volume of scientific and methodological literature, dissertations, monographs and online sources on the research issue is investigated. The results of the study. As a result of the analysis of the literature, it was found that in the preparatory period, the main factors that ensure the development of athletes' physical readiness are “functional readiness”, “special  endurance”, “special strength and technical preparedness” and “speed-strength preparedness. When developing an individual plan for training athletes, it is important to take into account the orientation of the training process into a separate mesocycle, the need to use such methods, namely: enhancing the development of basic qualities, increasing the level of athletes who are behind in physical training, and those who have an average level of development – it is necessary to improve in optimal mode. Key findings. The effectiveness of training, namely physical training in highly qualified biathletes in the annual cycle can be ensured provided that training sessions are created on the basis of model characteristics of competitive activity and physical fitness of biathletes, mainly to improve speed and strength endurance and increase the role of speed and strength training
