INFLUENTIAL FEATURES OF REVERSE ACTION OF SHOCKWAVE SIMULATORS ON PHYSIOLOGICAL AND PHYSICAL STATES OF STUDENTS

The empirical studies of reverse action of shockwave simulators on physical state of high school students (n-85) were organized in comparison with other physical means in order to heighten the interest of high school students in physical education and increase their physical activity. The studies were conducted in three classes in physical education lessons in the preparatory part, three times a week for 15 minutes, for six months. The first class was the control, the second one includes sports games, and the third – general development exercises with simulator «Udarnik». At the beginning and at the end of the experiment, 2 anthropometric indicators, 4 physiological indicators and 8 indicators of physical abilities were determined in high school students and how these indicators are affected by shockwave simulators in comparison with other means of physical training in six months. Almost all the physical qualities of high school students were low before the pedagogical experiment. After a six-month experiment, almost all indicators of students of experimental classes were significantly improved. According to state standarts, they have shown good and satisfactory results in both physical development and basic physical qualities with the exception of agility. The using of shockwave simulators «Udarnik» in physical education lessons heighten the interest of students in physical education. Such exercises reduce body weight, increase the functional adaptive capabilities of the cardiovascular system. They can also improve flexibility, speed, endurance, speed and power and also strength qualities of students. The results of the study can be useful for coaches and physical education teachers in primary and secondary general school.
