Abstract

Introduction. Physical education is an integral part of the general system of higher education, has a comprehensive approach to the formation of mental and physical qualities of the individual, improvement of physical and psychological preparation for active life and professional activity on the principles of individual approach, priority of health orientation, wide use of various means and forms of physical improvement. One of the main components of the training of higher education students is physical training for future professional activities, which contributes to the formation of the necessary physical and mental qualities, motor skills in relation to the profile of the future profession.

The aim of the study – based on the analysis of literature sources, to determine the reasons for the decline in the level of physical fitness of higher education students of higher medical education institutions (HMEIs) and to outline ways to solve this problem. To highlight and substantiate the methodology for improving the physical fitness of higher education students in higher medical education institutions.

The main part. This methodology is based on four main areas: training, recovery, nutrition, and psychological (mental) preparation. The first area is training. Schedule 4 workouts per week: 3 of them intense and 1 not very intense but long. The second area is no less important – recovery. You need to sleep at least 7 hours a day so that you have time to recover and perform your workouts effectively. If you are tired or sick, you need to stop training and take a break, because you will only make it worse for yourself. The third area is nutrition. We exclude alcohol, fried foods, pastries, sweets, tobacco, and drugs. Try to eat more protein foods, do not be afraid of fats, if you eat fats, then preferably take fats from fish or plants As for carbohydrates, try to eat more cereals, for example: buckwheat, durum pasta, brown or wild rice. The fourth area is a certain psychological (mental) preparation. Even a well-prepared student can be defeated in some situations and cases by a more clever, cunning and insidious opponent.

Conclusions. Based on the analysis of literature sources, we have determined that the reasons for the decrease in the level of physical fitness of higher education students of higher medical education institutions are: insufficient material and technical base; unsatisfactory level of physical fitness with which applicants enter higher education institutions; increase in the volume and intensity of educational material in subjects not related to motor activity; imperfection of the educational process in physical education. Classes to improve the physical fitness of higher education students are most effectively conducted using the system of functional training.
