Background and Study Aim. The military situation in Ukraine necessitates a revision of the school class organization system. Proximity to the military contact line forces schools to switch to online learning. Additionally, there is a decrease in physical activity among school students. In these conditions, it is important to explore the effectiveness of using specific sambo exercises to develop physical qualities in high school students during distance learning. The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of such application of sambo exercises for the development of physical qualities in high school students in a distance learning format.
Materias and Methods. The study involved tenth-grade students (n=15), aged 15-16 years. Data collection was conducted through surveys using Google Forms and testing to determine physical quality indicators. The experiment lasted for 8 weeks (with sessions three times a week), during which specific sambo exercises were applied in a remote format during physical education lessons.
Results. The study results showed that 80% of the students were interested in implementing a new module - sambo - in physical education lessons. Correlational links were established between the results of the exercises and indicators of strength, flexibility, and coordination. Moreover, there was a significant improvement in the test results for coordination, flexibility, and strength, averaging 20%.
Conclusions. The study results indicate significant interest among high school students in implementing specific sambo exercises in a distance learning environment. This is confirmed by the high percentage of students who expressed a desire to practice sambo during physical education lessons.
