“…Besides, the high level of variability for such indices as the strength of the upper limbs and flexibility demonstrates the necessity to divide the girls into subgroups while developing the corresponding physical features or the necessity for them to attend additional PE classes of various types. The conducted studies of female students' physical fitness confirmed and supplemented the findings by Osipov, Kudryavtsev, Iermakov, Yanova, Lepilina, Plotnikova, and Dorzhieva (2017), Kashuba et al (2017) and Fotynyuk (2017).…”

The purpose of this research paper is to study physical fitness and functional state of female first-year students in Prydniprovska State Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture. Materials and methods. The study involved 100 female first-year students of general group aged 17-18, all after medical examination and obtaining doctor’s approval: the age group was 18 years old (n = 100). To meet the goals set, the following research methods were used: theoretical analysis and generalization of data in specialized scientific and methodological literature, pedagogical testing, anthropometric research methods, functional methods of cardiorespiratory system investigation and methods of mathematical statistics for processing the results of the research. Results. the conducted study proved the hypothesis on the necessity to improve the system of physical education in technical higher educational institutions, which is connected with the low level of physical fitness among students. Conclusions. The study revealed the low level of physical fitness among the investigated students in terms of speed and strength endurance indicators (with 83%), explosive physical force of the lower limbs (with 82%) and strength endurance of the upper limbs (with 68%), as well as reduced functional characteristics: resistance to hypoxia (according to the results of the Shtange test with 46% and the Gench test with 49%), workability (with 71%) and efficiency of cardiovascular system (with 55%). Low physical fitness levels among the tested girls necessitate the additional introduction of more intensive training. The high variability of the physical fitness indicators among the students requires personalization of the training process, as well as the obligatory use of express testing methods for the physical state of each student during a workout.

“…Physical exercises conducted in higher educational establishments do not provide the students with the necessary amount of motor activity [11,12]. Their volume is 4 hours per week, which does not correspond to the biological standard of a young person [13].…”

Physical condition is one of the components of human health. Thus, students as future teachers of different specializations should be diagnosed in order to characterize their level of physical condition. The aim of the present research is to define the students' level of physical condition, to determine the factors that influence it. The research was conducted in 2017 and involved 75 students aged from 17 to 21 years old of the first and second courses of Sumy State Pedagogical University named after A.S. Makarenko. According to the results of the research, most students of different faculties have an average level of physical condition. At the same time the number of students with a level above the average is greater among future teachers of physical culture. The high level of physical condition is determined in 5,7% of the representatives of the Educational and Research Institute of Physical Culture. The high level of physical condition of the students of other faculties has not been recorded. It is also found out that the number of classes and physical activity of future physical training teachers is much higher than of other students. The data we have received do not differ significantly from the results of other authors and indicate the need to increase the level of physical condition and motor activity of the students by increasing the number of physical education classes for the students of different specializations.

“…There are many experts who recommend to increase the amount of physical activity of the modern students. You can do this through additional physical education or sports activities in your spare time (Fotynyuk, 2017). The students who are regular participants in various sporting events have higher rates of physical development, they are physically attractive and have a lower fat content in the total body weight than students who do not engage in active sports activities (Campos, Marques, Silva, et al, 2017).…”

“…For example, in the colleges and universities in England and Wales, despite significant measures to support the physical activity of the students, the participation rates of young people in various sports and sports activities are not acceptable (Boccaro, Kanters, Cerin, et al, 2012). Indeed, many experts say that there is a clear negative trend of lack of attention to physical exercises among the modern students (Osipov, Kudryavtsev, Fedorova, et al, 2017;Fotynyuk, 2017). Thus, the administration of educational institutions faces the difficult task of significantly increasing the level of motor activity of students in the context of a decrease in the interest of young people in sports and sports activities.…”

The article is devoted to the analysis of the activity of the teachers of the department of physical education and administration of the Krasnoyarsk state medical university named after professor V.F. Voyno-Yasenetsky devoted to increasing the level of physical activity of the students and staff of the higher school. To increase the level of physical activity and sports achievements of the students and staff of the higher school it was decided to use the rating system for assessing the athletic and athletic achievements of all students and staff. Moreover, the rating system was a scale of assessments for the participation in sports and sports events. At the end of each year the points were summed up and monetary rewards were paid for each collected score to the students and staff. Besides, the use of this rating system allowed to increase the total number of the students and staff significantly (P <0,01) who regularly receive points for physical exercises and various sports for a short period less than for 2 years. However, the results of the medical examination showed a significant decrease (P <0,05) in the number of higher school staff with excessive body weight. The body weight of the Krasnoyarsk state medical university staff has decreased on average from 81 ± 1,4 kg to 78 ± 1,2 kg. The body mass index of the students of the Krasnoyarsk state medical university did not undergo significant changes (central tendency-76 ± 1,8 kg) for 3 years of operation of the rating system.
