Description
Summary:This paper aims 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. 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). The authors measured the indicators: blood pressure, stroke volume of blood, heart rate during rest and exercising. The authors 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. They 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%).
