- Abstract
The aim is to determine the impact of combined use of health-improving fitness methods of Pilates and Bodyflex on the level of students' psychophysiological and functional capabilities. Materials: 46 high school students took part in the study. Methods of the research are psychophysiological (speed detection of simple and complex reaction in different test modes, level of functional mobility and strength of the nervous system). We measured the indicators: blood pressure, stroke volume of blood, heart rate during rest and exercising. There was determined the indices of submaximal workability and autonomic balance. We used also the methods of pedagogical experiment and mathematical statistics. Results: We observed positive effect of the developed methods to the level of students' psychophysiological and functional capabilities. As a result of their application we saw significant decrease in the latent time of simple visual and motor reaction, complex visual and motor reaction, time duration of the test "level of functional mobility of nervous processes" in the feedback mode in the experimental group. The boys showed significant increase in stroke volume (from 58 ml to 62.1 ml, the threshold of anaerobic metabolism from 123.4 beats per min-1 to 141.4 beats per min-1. The girls also showed significant increase in stroke volume (from 58.3 ml to 62.5 ml, the threshold of anaerobic metabolism from 123.7 beats per min-1 to 143.3 beats per min-1. The indicators of energy-supply systems increased (S.A. Dushanin's technique). We marked the improvement in efficiency of the cardiovascular system (increased heart rate variability from 322.12 ms to 354.43 ms, reduction of mode amplitude of RR-intervals from 34.09% to 21.54%). Conclusions: It is recommended to use complex "Pilates" and "Bodyflex" systems in learning process. It contributes to the functional and psychophysiological capabilities of students. The use of Bodyflex and Pilates improves strength of nervous processes and students' submaximal workability.
