Accounting the peculiarities of the formation of posture in acrobats of various qualifications in sports practice

Relevance. Acrobatics is an extremely beautiful and spectacular sport, including complex coordination and strength exercises associated with balancing, body rotations with and/or without support. Along with high static loads, professional activity requires high elasticity of ligaments and muscles from acrobats, which a priori leads to various disorders of the musculoskeletal system, in particular, this will affect the parameters of posture. The purpose of this study is to study the parameters that characterize the posture of female athletes specializing in pair-group acrobatics, taking into account their qualifications. Research methods. 45 athletes engaged in pair and group acrobatics, aged from 13 to 18 years, were examined, including 24 athletes with the title of Master of Sports (MS) and 21 with the category of candidate for Master of sports (CMC). The study was conducted on the basis of the sports club of acrobatics and trampoline jumping named after him. Vasily Machuga in compliance with all bioethical norms. We evaluated the parameters of posture using the "Mashkov's Rhombus" method, the coefficient of asymmetry of posture indicators, as well as the shape of the athletes ' legs. The study of the parameters that characterize the posture of female athletes specializing in pair-group acrobatics, taking into account the qualifications, revealed a significant deterioration in the indicators of posture and a change in the shape of the legs of female athletes with the master of sports category, compared with acrobats with the candidate master of sports category. Conclusions. Thus, in training work with athletes specializing in pair-group acrobatics, it can be recommended, as the static load increases (when the athlete moves from the top position in the three to the middle or lower), to increase the number of exercises for the formation of correct posture, both symmetrical and asymmetric. Acrobats with identified postural disorders are also recommended to engage in therapeutic physical culture, taking into account the diagnosis.
