Determination of 'physical culture' and the characteristics of its levels

Abstract

Based on the analysis of literature, comparison, induction, deduction was conducted to study the essence of the notion "physical culture". It is shown that in some countries the notion "physical culture" is an umbrella for the study of physical perfection of man, but in many countries generic are other concepts. Even those authors who study the theory and methodology of physical culture, not always involved in the definition of "physical culture". Evaluation study of the concepts as species for the theory of common culture and generic for the theory of physical culture has identified the need to develop the basic concepts of "physical culture". The diversity of the content of the physical activities required the development of special formulas for the definition of "physical culture". The study formulated and basic concept of "physical culture", suitable for professional training, as well as the definition of the concept for level of students in secondary schools and higher - level researchers in the field of theory and methodology of physical perfection.
