Abstract

Topicality. The analysis of the factors, that causes the emergence of different pathological states of high-school students, demonstrates the PE disadvantages at schools’ or out-of-schools’ activities, that affect the high-school students’ health status and physical preparedness. In the modern scientific researches, it is assumed that theoretical and methodological reasoning of fitness integration into the system of school’s physical education will contribute to the improvement of physical preparedness and motivate to physical activities, physical development, health promotion, socialization and self-determination among adolescents. The Research Methodology. The research and generalization of scientific and methodical research papers, educational experiment, pedagogical monitoring, psychological and educational methods, testing, the methods of mathematical statistics. The Results of the Research. Developing strength fitness programs, high-school girls` physical efficiency has been taken into consideration. The test results evidence that the level of high-school girls` physical preparedness is low. The high-school girls predominantly have the average level of competency within strength and strength-speed quality. The low level of the physical preparedness competency is detected within speed, flexibility, endurance and agility. Therefore, the physical preparedness level of high- school girls is predominantly low or average, resulting in necessity of additional and focused physical activity. Following the application of training using the strength fitness programs, the results of the pedagogical experiment prompt the conclusion that the level of students’ physical preparedness was improved (р<0,001). Conclusion. Considering this concept, we proposed recreational program for high-school girls, which includes the harmonious development of physical qualities based on use of strength fitness means.
