Objective of the study: To develop test tasks to determine the level of physical fitness of gymnasts performing in group exercises.

Methods and structure of the study: The scientific work involved gymnasts performing under the Masters of Sports program. Test tasks to determine the physical fitness of gymnasts consisted of standards assessing the level of development of flexibility, strength, coordination, speed abilities, as well as special endurance. The assessment scale for determining the physical fitness of gymnasts was developed based on the average standards for the stage of higher sports mastery in the sport of «rhythmic gymnastics».

Results and conclusions: The structure of the tasks includes both general pedagogical principles applied for the pedagogically organized process and principles of sports training, which determined the necessary connections between the training impact and their effect. The developed assessment tools will allow specialists to make timely adjustments to the training process, as well as design their own concept of sports training. The developed test tasks will allow coaches to rationally adjust the training process and improve the level of physical fitness of gymnasts performing in group exercises.

Keywords: rhythmic gymnastics, group exercises, physical fitness, physical abilities.
