Objective of the study was to rate the level of development of physical qualities of the population tested in the GTO Complex tests.
Methods and structure of the study. The level of development of the population's physical qualities (speed, endurance, strength, flexibility) was assessed based on the results of testing of 2,050,019 Russians aged 6 and over, in compliance with the state requirements of the GTO Complex.
The level of development of the speed qualities was evaluated by the results of the sprint tests (3x10 m shuttle run; 30 m, 60 m and 100 m run). The endurance rates in the population were determined in the long-distance run tests (1000 m, 1500 m, 2000 m, and 3000 m run) and mixed movement test (1000 m and 2000 m), as well as in the Scandinavian walking test (3000 m).
The level of development of such physical quality as "strength" was evaluated based on the results demonstrated by the subjects in the following tests: pull-ups on high and (or) low horizontal bars, push-ups, and 16 kg kettlebell lifting (for the young and adult males).
The flexibility rates in the boys (young males) and girls (young females) were determined between 6 and 24 years of age.
Results and conclusions. The data obtained suggest that the physical fitness rates in the population tested in the GTO Complex tests were uneven, the proportion of those tested in 2018 was 47.5%, which indicated that the majority of the population failed the tests.
The analysis of the test results showed that the GTO project is of great interest to citizens who are more conscientious about regular physical trainings and have a certain interest in the GTO Complex tests.

Keywords: physical qualities, physical fitness, performing tests of the GTO Complex, testing.
