Informational Indicators of Functional Capacities of the Body for Teaching Cadets from Higher Military Educational Institutions Power Types of Sports

Abstract

The article investigates the level of functional capacities and health of kettlebell lifters of different qualification in order to substantiate the components of functional preparedness that are informatively important for teaching of the cadets in kettlebell lifting. In total, 77 cadets, who were engaged in kettlebell lifting in the section of the higher military educational institution, participated in the investigation. Three groups were formed: group 1 – cadets who reached the III and II class in kettlebell lifting (n=34), group 2 – cadets of the I class and the candidates for master of sport (CMS) (n=27), and group 3 – cadets who obtained the level of masters of sport (MS) and masters of sport of international class (MSIC) (n=16). Based on the indicators of the heart rate at rest, vital capacity, the Robinson index, the duration of breath-holding, physical performance and maximum oxygen consumption it was determined that the group 3 cadets have a significantly better level of functional capacities (p<0.05–0.001) than the cadets of lower classes. It was established that the functional capacities of the cardiorespiratory system are informatively important components of functional preparedness for teaching kettlebell lifting to the cadets.
