The Efficiency of Terrenkur in the Process of Physical Culture and Sport Classes for Students with Disabilities
The main purpose of the research was to justify the effectiveness of physical culture and sports programs for students with disabilities through scientifically based implementation of technology and methodological structure of the means and methods of physical rehabilitation using therapeutic physical culture, dosed walking (terrenkur), self-massage and cold training. The objectives are to analyze the functional state of the body of students, develop a program for physical culture and sports using terrenkur, self-massage and cold training, to confirm the effectiveness of the program based on the dynamics of changes in the indicators of the functional state of students. The hypothesis is based on the assumption that understanding of the specifics of the mechanisms of terrenkur, self-massage and cold training and the methods of their use in the program of physical culture and sports, it is possible to significantly expand the functional reserves of the body of students and improve their performance. It was found that in the course of training in 16 students with the effects of cerebral palsy, the activity of free radical oxidation reactions increases and the activity of the antiradical protection system decreases. Subject to the use of special physical loads in the aerobic mode, the intracellular antioxidant defense system increases, and the content of the products of lipid peroxidation reactions decreases. At the same time, vital capacity indicators of the lungs increased and tolerance to physical activity of students with the effects of cerebral palsy increased.
