Analysis of the impact of physical education and sports as the basis of a healthy lifestyle on the physical activity and working capacity of young students

Abstract

In modern scientific research, the issue of the influence of regular physical activity on the working capacity, health and quality of life of young students is gaining more and more attention. Most modern scientific research is mainly focused on studying individual physiological or medical-biological aspects of physical activity of young students. The purpose of the article is to determine the influence of regular physical culture and sports on the physical activity and working capacity of young students Methods. To achieve the goal of the presented scientific research, a complex of general scientific and special methods was used: theoretical (analysis of data from special scientific and methodological literature on the selected research topic); pedagogical (testing the functional state of the body), sociological (questionnaire) and mathematical (statistical). 120 people aged 18 to 22 years participated in the study. Results. The results of the survey show that only 38% of participants regularly pay attention to physical activity (three or more times a week). At the same time, 34% engage in physical exercises irregularly, and 28% have a sedentary lifestyle. The results of the study demonstrate a significant increase in the level of physical activity during the experiment, which has a positive effect on the functional state of the body of young students. In particular, among those who regularly engage in physical exercises, 74% of respondents noted an improvement in their well-being, 69% noted an increase in working capacity, and 63% reported a decrease in the level of psycho-emotional stress. Conclusions. The results of the study demonstrate that an increase in the level of physical activity has a positive effect on the functional state of the body, labor productivity and overall quality of life of young students. In particular, among people who regularly engage in physical exercise, 74% noted an improvement in their well-being, 69% noted an increase in working capacity, and 63% reported a decrease in the level of psycho-emotional stress. For the first time, the relationship between the level of physical activity of student youth, their working capacity and quality of life has been established and substantiated.
