В роботі означено сучасні підходи до підвищення рухової активності студентської молоді шляхом впровадження спеціальних вправ для виконання в домашніх умовах. Систематичне їх впровадження в життя сприятиме засвоєнню навички плавати в умовах басейну. Розкривається оздоровча роль плавання та вплив водного середовища на організм людини загалом.
The suggested paper states the methodology of the implementation of specific breathing exercises at home (in the bathroom), the performance of which will contribute to the swimming skills acquisition in the pool. The recreational role of swimming as well as the impact of the aquatic environment on the human body in general is exposed. The suggested program develops the methodology of the performance of specific breathing exercises in the domestic setting, the performance of which will contribute to the improvement of overall physical efficiency and health promotion in general. It is recommended to perform systematic strengthening activities, which are aimed at health improving and development of physical and personal strong-willed qualities, alongside with specific breathing exercises. The intense muscle activity while learning swimming demands reinforced breathing. The performance of such “breathing exercises” increases the volume of a taken breath, contributes to the pulmonary ventilation, strengthens vital capacity of the lungs, and increases the level of oxygen consumption. The performance of movements in water requires deep breathing, in the process of which the remotest segments of lungs take part, therefore, excluding the congestion effects in them. It is important to mention that for many diseases, an adequately chosen amount of physical exertion in water can slow down some pathological processes, which, in turn, will contribute to a faster rehabilitation of the human body functions. Under the influence of physical activities in water the physiological processes are activated, the body shape is improved, the functioning of all organs and systems is becoming better, the level of working efficiency is increased, and the overall health is promoted.
