"or "eSports". In their own way they are right. Both disciplines have been elevated to the rank of sports competitions in many countries of the world, including Russia. Both sports are useful for development: chess develops thinking, logic and memory. Esports – reaction, strategic thinking and the ability to make decisions instantly.
Gymnastics
In terms of health benefits, physical development and safety, the best sport is gymnastics. There are many: gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, gymnastics, team gymnastics and street gymnastics.The most dangerous sports are recognized as: martial arts, boxing, weightlifting, football and hockey. Non-Olympic activities include motor racing, hang gliding and parachuting, and parkour.
Of all these types, physical education and health-improving areas can be distinguished. These are fitness, Pilates, callanetics, and aerobics that are popular among women these days. Those interested in oriental sports choose yoga, qigong, tai chi, and wushu. They are all no more dangerous morning exercises, and surpass it in benefits. Their main advantage is that all human abilities develop simultaneously and harmoniously. The safety of those involved is at the highest level: no extreme loads, no dangers, minimal chance of injury. For those for whom the spirit of competition is important in sports, there are sports areas of fitness: athletic fitness, body fitness and others. Competitions, including worldwide ones, are regularly held in Tai Chi and Wushu.
Olympic sports
From the point of view of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), which conducted research into the injury risk of Olympic sports at the Summer Olympics in Beijing, canoeing was the safest. Rowing took second place, sailing took third. It should be noted that the main safety criterion was the likelihood of injury to Olympic participants. In other words, these sports are the safest for professional athletes.The most life-threatening sports: parachute jumping from high-rise buildings or cliffs (base jumping), skiing downhill on unprepared areas (heliskiing), cave diving, rock climbing, mountain biking, rafting.
For non-professional athletes, golf, walking and swimming were allocated by IOC members. In golf, excluding sunburn, you can suffer injuries to your back, hips, and knees from swinging the club repeatedly and forcefully. But if you use correct technique and warm up before the game, this will not happen. The only injury that can occur during race walking is a sprained foot muscle. It is prevented by using high-quality shoes and special insoles. Swimming in a pool, when using the correct technique, almost never causes injury to the practitioner.
Today we will discuss what is the most useful sport for the harmonious and complete physical development of a person’s muscles and intellect, two very important points for any sport, especially the best sport. In fact, this is the main purpose of sport, and why 90% of people still do it. Therefore, we will find out which sport you can get the most harmonious physical load on your muscles and ligaments to maximize your strength, speed, flexibility and endurance.
And for lovers of “large sizes”, let’s not forget about the large volume of muscles. But you just need to take into account that it is naturally not very bad if muscles and strength go to the detriment of the main organ of a modern person, namely his brain. And in order to avoid this, we will immediately discuss which sports help develop intelligence, and which, on the contrary, lead to its gradual degradation.
Harmonious muscle development in sports
The harmonious development of all muscles is extremely important for a person, since, for example, when pumping only their arms, many athletes often forget about their legs or vice versa. The result is a disproportionate person who can only perform a strictly defined function in his life.As an example, very inflated people like the guy shown in our main photo, whom I photographed on the beach in Rio, look at how interested the whole beach is looking at him, and the girls run up to take a photo with him. But there is even more “pumped”, who often cannot even tie their own shoelaces, scratch their backs, etc.. As a result, it turns out to be not the most useful sport and “ healthy athlete“but some kind of humanoid and a hostage of his own body.
Real healthy man must have both flexibility and endurance. What is the use of “blunt force” if you are strong, but cannot even run 25 meters, do 2 pull-ups and touch your own toes with your hands.
Naturally, for the harmonious development of muscles in sports, we must also take into account that as we develop speed, our strength and endurance usually decrease, and vice versa is also true, which is also not very good. The ideal body for a person is harmonious developed body without big distortions.
The most useful sport
We already had separate articles about and about the most, you can read them, but now we are talking about the most harmonious and useful sport in the field of muscle growth and physical activity.
1) Football gives good development of the whole body, only slightly overlooking the development of the arms, and stretching 8 points.
2) general physical training if it is only running, it will not develop the whole body, but only the legs of runners, and this is 6 points, but taking into account swimming and fitness, let it be 9.3) Karategives excellent tone to the whole body and extraordinary strength of muscles and tendons, as well as strength and speed, although with large muscles you will not get 9 points.
4) MMA pumps the majority the right muscles during hard training, usually not taking into account only the 9-point stretch.
5) Chess immediately receive a minimum of 4 points for obvious reasons. You'll just have to extra In addition to chess, be sure to visit the gym.
6) Acrobatics incredibly pumps up the whole body for speed, strength and endurance, and if you add more plastic artistic gymnastics, you can even give 10 points. The only negative is, of course, the increased incidence of injuries.
7) Bodybuilders, security forces and street "Jocks" often do not develop speed and stretch. Then, even pumping ideal muscles, 8 points for disharmony. Although there are many pleasant exceptions, and “work out” separately, as the most useful sport for harmonious muscle growth, can easily get more points.
Healthy sports
8) Here dancing provide enough movement and muscle development, so dancing can easily be considered a useful sport for harmonious development. Naturally, in dancing, endurance is pumped up most of all, but speed and strength are not always enough. Although if this is breakdancing, then we will easily give 8 points for the usefulness of the dancing.
9) Yoga Same develops plasticity and stretching, but completely forgot about speed and dynamics, receiving a maximum of 9 for this disharmony, and even then, for the incredibly healthy body and spine of the yogis. Although if you don’t know, there are types of yoga that pump muscles, but these are more modern approaches.10) Capoeira tries to pump, develop and develop harmoniously all muscle groups. Most good capoeristas can easily do the splits, bridge, walk on their hands and jump complex somersaults.. At the same time, strength is often trained by practicing static strength balance. Moreover, some do all this until they are 50-60 years old, it would seem a solid ten.
But to be fair, we’ll give 9 points, since capoeira is not a professional competitive sport and practitioners are not always required to give their all during training. And there are also many types of capoeira, and not all of them provide ideal physical activity.
Sports and intelligence
But let's talk about sports and intelligence, since muscles are muscles, and they are important, and strength is also important, but no amount of money or sporting achievements will definitely help you if your head is empty. Therefore, let's see which sport out of the dozen we selected earlier develops intelligence to a greater extent, or at least prevents it from degrading.
1) Football is not exactly designed for developing intelligence, but since this is a team sport it requires constant attention and analysis of the behavior of other members of your team and the enemy team. Not to mention calculating the optimal strategy for winning the entire team for this 7 points.
2) General physical training, running and swimming require very little investment and development of intelligence. You can only think about something during a long marathon, or jogging around the house, and you certainly won’t become smarter by running 100 meters. Although there are a lot of smart people there, they know when it’s better to overtake the enemy and when to save their strength, but still a maximum of 6 points.
3) Karate is quite an intellectual sport., you need to analyze the enemy’s behavior and fighting style. Not to mention learning a lot of strikes and the moment when it is appropriate to use them. And also karate is often a spiritual sport, meaning work on yourself, your mind and consciousness, so 8 points.
4) MMA is very difficult to call mixed or martial arts developing intelligence. But still, when you start to want to live and win, you have to analyze your opponents and the possible strategy of your behavior, for this 6 points.
The smartest sport
5) Chess, of course, 10 points. This truly the smartest and even wisest sport, because in addition to incredible training of the intellect when choosing the right move, you also train the wisdom of foreseeing the behavior of your opponent 5-10 or even 20 steps ahead.
What is worthy of the best strategists in the world. Plus possible by-effect in another ten years in the form of photographic memory, when you can memorize a sheet of printed text in a few seconds, which makes chess the most useful sport for the development of intellectual abilities.
6)Acrobatics is far from the smartest sport and does not require large intellectual expenditures, except for memorizing many dozens of complex elements and how to perform them, for which 7 points.
7) Bodybuilding, on the contrary, is very often associated with increased intellectual activity, as it requires reading an incredible mountain of literature with various ways to pump up. Plus many jocks know chemistry and medicine at a very advanced level, understanding the effect on their body of dozens of medications and all the muscles in the human body by name and functionality.
And frankly, there are a lot of philosophers and politicians in this sport. Therefore, if you really train wisely and according to well-thought-out sports systems, then you can safely get 8 points.
8) There is no need to be too clever when it comes to dancing; it hardly develops the mind significantly., although there are also a few stupid dancers, let there be 6 points.
9) Yoga also works more in the plane of spirituality than of intellect., but at the same time there are types of purely intellectual yoga, and in classes a very large list of problems from healthy eating, to the place and role of man in this world.
Yes, and among yogis and religious figures there are the smartest people planets, and the Vedas contain many references to such knowledge, which modern science has only now begun to approach 9 points.10) Capoeira is not the most intellectual sport, but at the same time it is also often necessary to keep traditions in mind different groups, dozens if not hundreds of songs in Portuguese, predict enemy movements and deception attempts during the game. And slow traditional capoeira (Angola) is generally similar to unique physical chess and is most likely the most intelligent martial arts, 8 points.
Sport develops intelligence
I'll tell you more than that, in On average, sport really develops intelligence or at least contributes to it, because usually people who do not engage in sports at all, or at least creative activities such as poetry, drawing, music or singing, are on average less intellectually developed, and are almost not ready to improvise and create something new.
That's why I still advise you to pay attention to sports, even if your main goal is to become smarter, after all a wise body accommodates a wise mind more harmoniously. Moreover, now most athletes are becoming political and business elite, and some already have more than one higher education. And in ancient times, sage athletes were generally the elite of the entire society, and a significant part of famous philosophers in ancient Greece received medals at the Olympic Games.
Highlights of the article: Today we discussed ten of our previously selected best sports in their categories. Namely, we evaluated candidates for the most useful sport according to two most important criteria
2) Sports that provide maximum development of intelligence
We got the following results: Football 8, 7; GPP 9, 6; Karate 9, 8; MMA 9, 8; Chess 4, 10; Acrobatics 10, 7; Bodybuilding 8, 8; Dances 8, 6; Yoga 9, 9; Capoeira 9, 8.
I hope reading this story will help you understand what is more important for you, the development of intelligence or the physical characteristics of your body, and you will be able to determine the healthiest sport for yourself. But for later life, read the next part of this story. Also read about, and, and I have, if you are interested in this topic, I highly recommend reading it.
What is the most useful sport? This question interests both the majority of parents who are deciding where to send their child, and the adults themselves who are planning to engage in some kind of active activity for their health with maximum benefit. Not long ago, Australian scientists named a list of the most effective sports for human health. In this article we will talk about them in detail, and also dwell on the influence and effect they have on the body.
Purpose of the study
Australian scientists from the University of Sydney asked themselves which sport is the most useful. The study was based on data from social services in Australia and the UK, which monitored the health of approximately 80,000 older Britons who regularly exercised. So we managed to find out the most useful sport.
Interestingly, scientists have concluded that not only how often a person plays sports matters, but also what kind of sport it is. It turned out that playing different sports has different effects on the human body, often completely opposite. One of the implications of this research is the opportunity to develop new types of sports exercises that will help restore health most effectively.
One of the goals of the study to determine the most beneficial sport was to determine whether intense physical exercise on a person’s life expectancy, as well as his predisposition to certain diseases. In particular, strokes, heart attacks, and other problems with the cardiovascular system.
Scientists decided to establish how it affects physical activity not on health in general, but how a person’s condition depends on the specific sport in which he plays.
Scientists' conclusions
The researchers' findings were quite unexpected for some. For example, running, football and weightlifting had no effect on the likelihood of death due to health problems or life expectancy in general. But some disciplines really had a strong impact on health and life expectancy.
For older people, tennis and badminton turned out to be the most useful. It turned out that they reduced the likelihood of premature death by almost half, and by 56% due to problems with the cardiac system.
As scientists have found, aerobics and swimming have a positive effect on the duration, only to a slightly lesser extent. percentage. Cycling reduces your risk of dying from cardiovascular diseases by 15 percent.
The conclusion that scientists have come to is that each discipline has a different effect on human health and condition. As a result, certain parts of the body and certain organs are strengthened. In particular, this is an indication that specialists should develop combined types physical activity that will help, in general, improve the health of the human body.
Tennis
Currently, tennis is considered one of the most useful sports for children and adults. Its popularity is high all over the world, including in our country. Nowadays, several million people on the planet play tennis and can be sure that they are effectively taking care of maintaining their health. Many who lead healthy image life, strives to keep himself in good shape, and gives preference to tennis.
It has a positive effect on both the physical and psychological state of a person. Tennis develops the human body, and also develops his character, promotes personal growth and discipline.
Health effects
There is a whole list of reasons why tennis is considered the most beneficial sport for health.
- Tennis has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system.
- The respiratory system develops due to the constant supply of oxygen to all human systems and organs.
- Like other sports, tennis helps strengthen the immune system and makes the body more resilient.
- This type Sports helps to cope with psychological and physical stress, having a positive effect on the entire nervous system. It helps cope with depression and stress.
- When a person plays tennis, almost all muscle groups are involved. This contributes to the formation of a beautiful and organic figure. And even without using additional classes in gym.
- When you play tennis regularly, you can forget about problems with overweight.
- Finally, this sport develops attention, disciplines, and increases reaction speed.
With a racket in hand
It is worth mentioning separately why tennis is considered the most useful sport for children. The fact is that the participation of all muscle groups contributes to the formation of the figure, which is especially important in childhood and adolescence. In addition, tennis strengthens the immune system, having a beneficial effect on all organs of the human body.
A teenager who plays tennis trains the vestibular apparatus and improves coordination of movements. Finally, regular exercise has a positive effect on mental performance. After all, tennis is considered an intellectual sport that develops the ability to think outside the box, but at the same time logically, and also make decisions instantly.
Tennis plays a big role in the psychological health and development of a child. It disciplines him, helps self-realization and personal growth, and contributes to the formation of strong-willed qualities. This is the most useful sport.
Contraindications
Of course, there are some contraindications that should be followed if you decide to become a tennis player or want to send your child to the club.
Playing tennis is not recommended if you have problems with the musculoskeletal system, or serious illnesses, in particular cardiovascular diseases, which appear at an early age. To be sure that tennis is not contraindicated for you, it is best to consult your doctor in advance. He will tell you which sport is good for your health in your particular case.
Impressions of tennis players
Experts advise sending children to this sport as early as five years of age. In reviews about what kind of sport is useful, many parents emphasize that their children’s health has improved significantly as soon as they sent them to the appropriate section.
There are certain arguments that support why you should start playing tennis at this age. A child of 5 years old has not yet fully developed coordination; preparatory exercises and regular exercises allow him to learn dexterity, attentiveness, and master many other useful abilities. This is what makes this sport good for health.
When deciding where to send your child, you should listen to the advice and feedback of not only the athletes themselves, but also the coaches. They will confirm which sport is the most useful and give practical advice. For example, mentors recommend not limiting yourself to training only on the court, but constantly repeating exercises with your child for training on the street and even at home. If you wish, keep him company, which will also help improve the atmosphere in the family. For example, dribbling a tennis ball is one of the key parts of this sport when you are just starting to learn it. This can be successfully done at home.
The main thing is not to overload the preschooler. The maximum number of workouts is two to three per week. Only with the onset of 7 years of age can you increase the frequency to four classes. If you follow these tips from professionals, you will understand for yourself which sport is the most beneficial for your health.
Swimming
Swimming is definitely worth paying attention to as well. This is one of the most useful and safe sports. A positive effect appears on various body systems - respiratory, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, nervous and immune. All this allows us to say with confidence that one of the most useful sports is swimming.
Regular exercise in the pool helps to increase the strength of the respiratory muscles, as well as a significant increase in their tone. Great importance It also has the fact that the vital volume of the lungs and their ventilation increases.
If a person engages in swimming on a regular basis, the result is an increase in cardiac output. By this concept, experts understand the volume of blood that the heart can pump out during one cycle of its activity.
Of course, swimming helps strengthen the work of the heart and blood vessels, but it is important that all this happens in favorable conditions. Due to water pressure, the outflow of blood to the heart from the periphery is facilitated. Thanks to this, swimming is recommended even for older people and patients with cardiovascular diseases.
During swimming, almost all the muscles of our body are involved. This happens in any case, no matter what style of swimming you do. Their uniform work helps to form a harmonious and attractive figure that will be smooth - without sharp angles or protrusions.
The positive effect also affects the condition of the central nervous system, contributing to the formation of a strong and balanced type. By swimming, the entire nervous system becomes toned, the processes of inhibition and excitation are balanced, and the blood supply to the brain improves. As a rule, positive associations arise with swimming, which contribute to the formation of a positive emotional background. With its help you can overcome stress, hydrophobia, depression, lift your mood, improve attention, sleep and memory.
Finally, the immune system is strengthened, which promotes hardening, as the body becomes more resistant to low temperatures. This means that a person is less likely to catch colds and get sick. When swimming, the composition of the blood changes so much that resistance to infection increases significantly. This is the most useful sport, according to many experts.
Cycling is another activity that has a positive effect on all systems of the human body without exception. Most of all, of course, the muscles of the back and legs are involved. That is why there is an opinion that this is one of the most useful sports for men.
Like swimming and tennis, cycling strengthens our heart. It's no secret that the heart is also a muscle that must be kept in shape, otherwise problems may arise with it. Scientists have long proven that the resting heart rate of professional athletes is significantly lower than that of people who do not regularly train. This can be achieved precisely through a trained heart.
In addition, cycling allows you to get rid of many problems that almost every person has to face with age. For example, this is varicose veins. Regular cycling helps prevent this disease, which affects many at a certain age. You can get rid of it due to the fact that when you press the pedals, your heart rate begins to increase. As a result, blood flow accelerates through the arteries and veins. Due to this, there is a significant reduction in blood stagnation in the vessels, due to which varicose veins form.
One of the main causes of vegetative-vascular dystonia is also eliminated - physical inactivity. Modern people spend more and more time in a sitting position, so this disease is considered very common. While cycling, the state of the autonomic nervous system improves, which can prevent health problems.
Finally, the bicycle has an impact on sexual characteristics. That is why this sport is primarily recommended for men. While pedaling, blood circulation in the pelvic area increases significantly, which makes it possible to cope with the treatment and prevention of prostate adenoma. In addition, the functions of the endocrine gland return to normal, which significantly improves sex life person.
Aerobics
Many people don’t consider aerobics a sport at all. We admit that in many ways it is more like a list of exercises to maintain physical fitness. However, if you do them regularly, the benefits will be almost the same as swimming or tennis. You can't really name her dangerous looking sports This is the most useful pastime that you can think of if you want to have a healthy body, but have very little time for it.
The main impact of aerobics is on the human cardiorespiratory system. Let's explain with a specific example. If your heart is not accustomed to stress, at rest it can push no more than 70 ml of blood into the aorta in one contraction. In a minute it turns out from three and a half to five liters. As a result of systematic training, it is possible to significantly increase these indicators. For example, up to 110 ml, and if physical activity is heavy, then up to 200.
All this allows you to maximize the reserve power of your heart. The effect of a trained body is manifested in an increase in heart rate per minute. Due to this, the time during which the heart remains in a relaxed state increases. This occurs when it receives oxygenated blood from the aorta.
In addition, physical activity, which is present in sufficient quantities during aerobics, has a positive effect on the respiratory system. The respiratory apparatus begins to absorb oxygen more efficiently, which ensures the full functioning of the cells of our body.
It's up to you to decide what kind of sport you want to engage in. One thing is for sure: if you decide to give preference to tennis, swimming, cycling or aerobics, you will save yourself from many diseases.
And recovery. Lack of movement is degradation and a threat to health. But physical exercise does not always bring health benefits. People have come up with many unnatural and unnatural activities for themselves, which are unusual for our body and often only bring harm. We often hear that playing sports is good for your health, but this is not the whole truth. Most sports are harmful to health.
We sift out the unnecessary
We eliminate all team sports and martial arts immediately due to their high level of injury. As you know, football ranks first in this parameter. For the same reason, let’s leave aside various skis and boards. Let's also discard rowing and tennis as sports that unevenly develop the body. We are interested in individual non-traumatic sports that harmoniously develop the entire body under moderate loads. It is important and combination of aerobic and anaerobic exercise for comprehensive health improvement. If aerobic exercises develop endurance and cardiovascular system, then anaerobic exercises develop strength and muscles. An additional benefit is the improvement of your figure if you have such a problem.
In general, when considering such a topic, I am more impressed by the concept of physical education, since sport is associated with some kind of records that are harmful to health. In my opinion, when we engage in any sport professionally, we harm ourselves more than we benefit. So, among strength sports, only health fitness is suitable for us, because powerlifting, bodybuilding and weightlifting, by definition, are not health-improving physical education, but sports of high achievement.
Best views sports for health
Dancing
Dances are different - some are more gentle and less traumatic, others are the opposite. They differ from aerobics by more abrupt and unnatural movements. Dancing puts a lot of stress on the legs, so good sneakers with soft soles will help protect your legs and spine. Health-improving dancing will allow you to develop the correct breathing technique, straighten your spine and improve your posture. Of course, muscles also develop. Unlike aerobics, dancing has a much greater variety of movements, so doing them is probably more pleasant for the soul. Often, dancing significantly improves - jogging; Thursday - anaerobic exercises to develop the muscles of the arms and legs; Friday - swimming; Saturday - anaerobic exercises to develop shoulder and abdominal muscles.
Monday, as you know, is a hard day, so a small load from anaerobic walking on such a day is suitable. After a two-day rest from strength exercises, on Tuesday you can lift a relatively heavy barbell. After that, run on Wednesday, stretch your arms and legs on Thursday, and swim on Friday. On Saturday off, work on your shoulder and abdominal muscles. You can vary different variants at your own discretion - in the way that is convenient for you.
Take the first step!
Start doing health-improving sports right now! Take a break from the monitor, get up and do exercises, dance to your favorite music, shake yourself up. And do this daily, gradually moving on to physical education and recreational sports. Don’t put it off until later with the thoughts “I’ll do it when I have more energy.” You will have more energy when you exercise! This is absolutely not difficult and requires minimal effort, but the health you receive in return will pay for the half an hour or hour spent on the exercises. Start with the simplest and most familiar, but most useful - take a walk around your favorite or unfamiliar place, take yourself on a tour. There are so many beautiful and interesting things around us, we just need to open our eyes
As many years of experience show, when choosing sports (or systems of physical exercise), most people do not have a clear, conscious and justified motivation. Most often, the choice is determined by chance. Much less often, the choice is based on a stable interest in a particular sport or on an understanding of the need to perform certain physical exercises in order to correct deficiencies in one’s physical development or functional readiness. And a random choice, as a rule, leads to a loss of interest and a decrease in activity, which means that the classes will not be effective.
From ancient times the call of the ancient Greek thinker Socrates “Know thyself!” has reached us. Therefore, an objective assessment of one’s physical development, physique, physical fitness, as well as preliminary familiarization with the “opportunities” of various sports are necessary for a conscious and justified choice of the type of sport and exercise for one’s physical improvement.
Despite all the diversity, in practice there are mainly five motivational options for choosing a sport and a system of physical exercises: sport correction endurance agility
- - health promotion, correction of physical development and physique deficiencies;
- - increasing the functional capabilities of the body;
- - leisure;
- - achieving the highest sports results.
Health is the leading factor that determines the full performance of all life functions, the harmonious development of a young person, the success of mastering a profession and the fruitfulness of the future. labor activity. Physical exercise, physical education and sports are widely used to improve health. The human body is programmed by nature to move, and physical activity should be present throughout life.
Special studies have established that the body of physically active 50- to 60-year-old men has higher functional capabilities than 30-year-old men, but with limited motor activity. It is no coincidence that all centenarians are characterized by increased physical activity throughout their lives. In modern society, there is no other way to increase physical activity except physical culture and sports. Therefore, all types of mass sports that are associated with active physical activity are designed to promote the normal functioning of the main systems of the body, improve this activity and create the prerequisites for maintaining and strengthening health.
Physical development is closely related to health. Participation in certain sports and physical exercise systems can contribute to the development of certain organs and systems of the body. With the help of specially selected physical exercises, you can improve many indicators of physical development (body weight, chest circumference, vital capacity of the lungs).
It is possible to explain deficiencies in physical development and physique by heredity and upbringing conditions, but young man It doesn't make it any easier. Such shortcomings constantly spoil the mood, and often give rise to an inferiority complex. Of course, not all defects can be corrected with the help of physical exercises: the most difficult are growth and those body features that are associated with the shape of the main skeletal bones. Much lighter - body weight and certain anthropometric indicators (thigh circumference, chest circumference, etc.).
But before you decide to correct your physique, or select special exercises or sports, you should form your firm idea of the ideal physique. Only after this should you make a decision about choosing a sport or a system of physical exercises - different kinds sports and exercises will help you solve the task you have set for yourself in different ways.
It is no coincidence that representatives of various sports are distinguished by characteristic anthropometric indicators: gymnasts have good development of the shoulder girdle and muscles of the upper extremities, muscles lower limbs they are relatively less developed; Speed skaters have a relatively well-developed chest, thigh muscles, etc., however, the greatest opportunities, for example, in the selective correction of individual physique defects, are provided by regular exercises in athletic gymnastics or shaping, i.e. those exercises that are aimed primarily at solving such problems.
In sports pedagogy, there are various approaches to grouping sports according to their impact on the human body,
development and formation of psychophysical qualities. Such a grouping
Of course, this is very conditional, since not a single sport, not a single system of physical exercises affects a person in one way, does not develop any one physical quality in its “pure” form. However, such groupings make it possible to combine different types of sports and systems of physical exercises according to their leading feature and give them a single detailed characteristic necessary for the individual choice of a sport or system of physical exercises.
The problem of focused education and improvement of basic physical qualities - endurance, strength, speed, flexibility, agility - is less complicated at the initial stages of systematic training physical exercise, since during this period, beginners, as a rule, simultaneously improve all these qualities. It is no coincidence that at this stage of preparation the greatest effect is achieved by a comprehensive training method, i.e. general physical training. However, as training in any particular physical quality increases, with a gradual increase in sports qualifications from a beginner to an advanced athlete, the magnitude of the mutual positive effect (“transfer”) gradually decreases. At high level preparedness, the development of one physical quality begins to inhibit the development of another.
