Using two-factor analysis of variance, it was found that physical activity as a separate factor had a positive effect on the general condition of red blood (erythrocyte concentration, hemoglobin and hematocrit content), as well as the blood gas composition indices: partial pressure of blood gases (pCO2, pO2)...
