Abstract

The article presents the results of a study devoted to the practical application of the population-centered method of somatotyping and the study of the values of a number of anthropometric and morphofunctional indices in female medical students in physical education. Taking into account the application of the population-centered method of somatotyping, it was determined that in this group of female students, the width of the shoulders significantly exceeds the width of the pelvis - the type of figure that is characteristic of the male physique. Based on the results of determining the values of the index of the relative width of the bone pelvis (the morphine index for women), while performing somatotyping according to the technique B.A. Nikityuk-A.I. Kozlov found that the majority of female students - 33 (68,77%) have a narrow pelvis (stenopyelia). It is also determined that girls with a rectangular body shape predominate among female students - 40 (83,33%), 5 (10,42%) female students with a trapezoid shape and 3 (6,25%) - with an average body shape.
It is established that the normoevolytic type of the age-related constitutional evolution of the organism is determined only in 3 (6,25%) female students of the study group. The data obtained as a result of the research carried out have practical application in assessing the results of the level of individual health of female students and in conducting physical education classes at the university.
