Abstract:
The article considers the results received while studying the influence of acrobatic
gymnastics on physical qualities development in 7-9-year-old schoolchildren. Acrobatic
gymnastics has a positive influence on the level of flexibility, quickness, strength, speedstrength
oriented and coordination abilities development among junior schoolchildren from
the experimental group (EG). Scientific novelty is in studying the dynamics of physical
development and physical readiness under the influence of acrobatic gymnastics. Practical
significance is in the influence revelation of acrobatic gymnastics lesson on physical qualities
development of 7-9 year-old schoolchildren. Research methods. Information sources analysis,
pedagogical testing, experiment, methods of mathematical statistics, the received data analysis
and summarizing. Results. The conducted research made it possible to identify significant
changes among schoolchildren from the experimental group, where the educational process
included the methodology with acrobatic exercises and elements of highly coordinated motor
actions. The schoolchildren from the experimental group had valid (P<0,05) improvement in
flexibility, quickness, speed-strength oriented and coordination abilities results. Conclusion.
The experimental methodology use connected with acrobatic elements introduction into
practical physical culture lessons had a significant influence on the results of physical qualities
development. At the same time, it should be noted that coordination abilities development was
registered almost among all respondents of the experimental group. We saw a valid improvement
in coordination based exercises fulfillment. The elements of acrobatic gymnastics can be included
into extracurricular physical culture lessons among junior schoolchildren.
