The impact of asics runkeeper on improving endurance performance in students

Abstract

The article investigates the impact of the asics runkeeper mobile application on the development of endurance in students. The purpose of the study is to investigate the impact of the asics runkeeper mobile application on endurance performance in students. To achieve this goal, the following research methods were used: analysis and synthesis of literary sources; resting heart rate, VO2 Max, 5 km and 10 km running; methods of mathematical statistics. A formative pedagogical experiment was conducted for three months, in which 30 students of the Hryhorii Skovoroda University in Pereiaslav took part. An experimental group (EG) and a control group (CG) were formed. The EG (n=15) trained using the asics runkeeper mobile application and the CG (n=15) trained without using such applications. It was found that the main methodological approaches to the development of endurance include: gradual increase in the duration of physical effort, interval training, pyramidal training, long, continuous training, functional training, tempo running, cross-country and cross-country training, exercises for general physical fitness. At the end of the experiment, we note a positive dynamics of the studied indicators in both groups. However, they are slightly higher in EG. In addition, students of EG showed more interest during the experiment, attracted friends, which is also an important factor.
