Regulatory and adaptive capabilities of people over 50 in the midst of graduated exercise

The present research is devoted to the estimation of functional reserves of the respiratory system of people over 50 years old - unexercised ones, staying in the different conditions of life. Purpose: dynamic study of the values of the main respiratory volumes determined by the standard and forced spirometry methods in people over 50 years old in peace and in the recovery period after the graduated exercise. In the conditions of rest in the older age group, a decrease in the living capacity of lungs, the volume of forced exhalation in the first second, the average volume of speed compared to the age standards was found. In the early recovery period after physical activity, there was a decline in routine and forced experimentation. A reduction in respiratory volume (with an increase in respiratory frequency), the life capacity of the lungs forced, instantaneous volume speed of 75%, the average speed indicates a disruption of emergency adaptation reactions after the graduated exercise of low intensity in people over 61 years old, which makes them a high-risk group. Studying the dynamics of pulmonary volumes against the background of the graduated exercise provides valuable information about the state of the respiratory apparatus and its external functions, that in the future can be used in evaluating the effectiveness of programs of restoration and optimization of life-supporting systems of the human body at the age of 50 and above.
