Introduction. One of the most popular types of physical activity among international students is swimming, which is used not only as a means of mastering new applied skills, but also as a way to systematically offset the negative consequences of adaptation to new environmental conditions caused by changes in climatic, geographical, socio-cultural and living conditions [1, 2].
The purpose of the study is to determine the degree of influence of practicing applied swimming on the adaptive capabilities of the body of foreign students.
Methodology and organization of research. The scientific work was attended by foreign students from far abroad who are engaged in applied swimming in physical education classes. The methods of MPC and AP of the circulatory system were used.
The results of the study and their discussion. It was revealed that foreign students who were engaged in physical education during the entire academic year according to the applied swimming program, the average level of physical performance in the group was determined as satisfactory, the BMD index was 38.01±1.18 ml/kg, p<0.05. There were no significantly significant changes in the average value for the AP group of the circulatory system (1.88±0.28 CU, p>0.5), however, there were positive changes in the structure of this indicator. Thus, 64.5% of international students after the course of applied swimming revealed an optimal and sufficient level of functional capabilities of the circulatory system, 35.5% were at risk of decreased functionality, and with a decrease in the functional capabilities of the circulatory system, students were not identified. Subjectively, the students also noted the positive effect of practicing applied swimming on their psycho-emotional stability.
In the group of students who are not engaged in applied swimming, the BMD index is lower than that of students engaged in swimming, and amounted to 34.83±1.24 ml/kg, p>0.5, physical performance is still at a low level. More than half of the international students involved in the standard physical education program have a risk of decline and decreased functionality of the circulatory system.
Conclusion. Practicing applied swimming helps to increase physical performance and provides favorable conditions for the formation of long-term adaptation to changes in living conditions associated with moving to another country.
