The article presents the results of rate hygienic assessment for sambo-practicing athletes, and shows the
expediency of amateur combative sport involving students of higher educational institutions as an
alternative or an elective course to traditional approaches is showny. During the research, 2 experienced
groups were formed from among the students of Barnaul at the age of 19-21 years, engaged in sambo on
an amateur level for 2-3 years, engaged mainly in anaerobic load, aimed at increasing muscle mass and
as a control group, students, not engaged in any kind of sport, while related to the main group of health.
As a result, it was found that physical performance and physical fitness indicators in most cases are
statistically significantly higher in the experimental groups, compared to students who do not engage in
any kind of sport, while belonging to the main group of health in relation to physical training,
somatometric and somatoscopic the indices determined in the two control and experimental groups
showed that students of sambo-wrestlers do not have pathology of the arch of the foot. Physiometric
parameters reflecting the functioning of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems of the organism
showed great training of the systems in the representatives of the first control group, which was reflected
in the optimal values of arterial pressure and statistically significantly greater vital capacity of the
lungs, which is due to prolonged aerobic and intermittent physical exertion. Thus, it seems promising to
introduce the training process of fighting sambo in the physical activity of student youth.
