Annotation.Implementation of fencing elements into the health-improving and prophylactic process of special medical group students increases the characteristics of the motor sensory reaction: concentration of attention, reaction time to a sound, a moving object and choice reactions.

Key words: fencing, motor sensory system, students.

Introduction

Forced physical inactivity due to the COVID-19 pandemic has led to an exacerbation of disorders in the functioning of the autonomic nervous system, accompanied by a deterioration in motor sensory reactions of students [1, 2]. The restoration and adaptation of the functional systems of the body of students is seen in the inclusion of elements of complex coordination types of martial arts, for example, fencing, in physical education, which will stimulate the work of sensory systems, increase the speed and quality of reaction to visual and auditory signals, strengthen the musculoskeletal system [3].

The aim of the research is to experimentally prove the effectiveness of integration of special exercises of fencers to increase sensory abilities into the health-improving and prophylactic process of special medical group students.

Research methods and organization

The study involved 24 students with disabilities according to the criteria of visual impairment and work of the musculoskeletal system at the age of 20.2 ± 1.4 years. Diagnostics of the visual-motor reaction was carried out on the agro-industrial complex "Sports Psychophysiologist". In the classroom, adapted technical-tactical models were used [3]. Statistical analysis and data interpretation were carried out using the IBM SPSS Statistics 25 software.

Results and its discussion

Reproduction of special exercises of fencers in the structure of classes of SMG students for 3 months increased the characteristics of attention concentration (6.9 ± 0.82; 9.2 ± 1.28, p <0.05); response time to sound (455.7 ± 28.62; 429.3 ± 35.14); reaction time to a moving object (698.3 ± 57.44; 541.6 ± 58.39, p <0.05) and choice reaction time (569.0 ± 50.46; 422.9 ± 36.15, p <0.05).

Tasks in pairs made it possible to form the accuracy of differentiation of the stimulus, anticipation reactions, the speed and spatial accuracy of the performance of combat actions, based on the "sense of distance".

Conclusion

Classes with elements of fencing, aimed at increasing the motor sensory response, contributed to an improvement in the speed of switching between the mechanisms of excitation and inhibition of the central nervous system, which ensured an enhanced readiness of the sensory system along with an improvement in the spatio-temporal parameters of movement technique and coordination abilities of students.
