Objective of the study was to determine trends in the development of physical fitness of the adult population in the Russian Federation.
Methods and structure of the study. The following were studied: the physical activity of the population of the Russian Federation during the implementation of the GTO complex, including the number of those who started and completed tests of the complex; the level of physical fitness of the population of the Russian Federation based on testing physical qualities and applied skills among the population from 25 to 70 years and older, as well as analysis of statistical indicators 1-FC and 2-GTO.
Results and conclusions. The results of the obtained statistical and empirical data revealed a number of characteristic trends in the development of the complex that influence the adult population during the involvement and implementation of the All-Russian Physical Sports Complex GTO: in modern Russian society, the need for systematic physical activity has not been formed; a low level of physical fitness of the adult population is recorded; there is an imbalance in the development of physical qualities in the population aged 25 years and older in accordance with the requirements of the GTO complex.
Based on the identified trends, an approach is proposed to improve the GTO complex, which expands the possibilities of choosing tests based on popularity and demand among the majority of citizens, increases interest in regular physical exercise through planning an individual trajectory of physical improvement.

Keywords: trends, physical fitness, adult population, those who have started, those who have completed, the GTO complex.
