The article considers the most efficient ways to build up young people’s motivations for physical training and health activities in a wide range from self-preservation instinct to individual health agenda i.e. from the biological motivations to the habitual and determined physical training and health activity. It was the original motivation building concept by V. Vilyunas based on ideas of the leading past and present psychologists and giving a top priority to emotions that express human motivations as direct precursors and reasons for behavioural models that provided a theoretical basis for the present study. The motivations building model of the author making a special emphasis on the emotional domain of motivations and offering a set of special training games was tested as beneficial for the young people’s motivations for physical training and health activity (PTHA).

Keywords: physical training and health activity, motivation, individual health agenda, self-preservation instinct, emotions.
