Description
Summary:The paper describes the educational technology of using Pilates for the prevention of spine disorders of female students at higher educational institutions. The main stages of this technology are discussed in the paper. In the first stage, special attention should be paid to control over the movements, concentration and focus on the exercises done by the students with the low fitness level. The main goal of this stage is to strengthen the muscles and ligaments of the spine. The second stage focuses on finding the right center of gravity of the body during exercise done by the students of the middle fitness level, as well as on the accuracy and smoothness of the movements. The main goal of this stage is to improve the support and motor functions of the spinal column. In the third stage, special attention should be paid to the development of intermuscular coordination and proper breathing of the students of high fitness level. During a workout, visual images to ensure correctness of performing this exercise should be used. The main goal of this stage is to enhance significantly the functional capacity of the spine.
