Dynamics of physical status indicators under the influence of healthy swimming classes, constructed taking into assount the age characterristics of women's development

The work examines the dynamics of indicators of the physical condition of women aged 20-25 under the influence of recreational swimming classes, built taking into account the age characteristics of women. The purpose of the study was to investigate the dynamics of indicators of physical development, functional state and physical fitness of women aged 20-25 under the influence of recreational swimming classes according to a program that takes into account their age characteristics. The research was carried out in the physical culture and health groups of the "Pioneer" swimming pool in Kharkiv (KZ MSDYUSSHOR on water sports of Yana Klochkova). The study lasted for 10 months. The study involved 30 women aged 20 to 25, randomly selected from among those who attend recreational swimming groups. Two groups were formed for the study: experimental and control. Initially, both groups used the same exercises on the water (low-intensity exercises for familiarization with water, breathing, special exercises, for relaxation; the technique of the chosen method of swimming was consolidated and improved). Later, swimming took on the character of training, and the exercises offered to individuals of both groups began to differ. This difference consisted in the fact that in the experimental group, the duration, number of exercises and repetitions, dose of load, complexity of exercises and amplitude of their movements were proposed according to the age characteristics of the state of the female body. Classes in both groups were held three times a week - the duration of one class was 60 minutes. The following methods were used during data collection: analysis of literary sources; test method; pedagogical experiment; pedagogical observation; method of mathematical processing of research data. The work presents materials that show that the research conducted to study the effectiveness of the program developed and applied by us for women 20-25 years old has confirmed data and a reliable advantage in comparison with the generally accepted program. Eleven out of twelve indicators of physical development and physical fitness improved statistically significantly in the subjects of the experimental group (p <0. 01). developed health swimming program for women aged 20-25 can be recommended in the health groups of the city's swimming pools.
