Abstract

The purpose of the article is to consider the effect of swimming on the functional changes in the boys of primary school age. Materials and methods: 7–9-year-old boys from the Aquamarine Swimming Center of the Youth Sports School No. 7 in Chelyabinsk participated in the study, 13 people in each group. The first group was developing swimming skills in a deep swimming pool, the second group - in the shallow swimming pool. The following methods have been used for the study: pedagogical tests; physiometry: Ruffier test, heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), pulse blood pressure (PBP) measurements; mathematical statistics. Results: A comparative analysis of the time of acquiring swimming skills revealed that the boys from both groups, swimming both in the deep and shallow swimming pool, mastered gliding in the water on the chest and back by the 8th lesson, and gliding in the water on the chest and back with leg work similar to crawl swimming by the 24th lesson. By the 36th lesson, children mastered front crawl swimming, but boys acquired better the technique of back crawl, practicing swimming in a deep swimming pool. Conclusion. During the study, it was revealed that, while swimming in a deep swimming pool, boys acquire swimming skills better and improve faster their physiological parameters.
