FORMATION OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE OF MEDICAL STUDENTS IN THE PROCESS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION IN THE CONDITIONS OF DISTANCE LEARNING

Abstract

The article is devoted to the essence and outline of ways to solve the problem of forming a healthy lifestyle of medical students in the process of physical education, which requires special pedagogical attention and search for scientific developments to solve it in distance learning. It is noted that the increase in the level of physical activity in students of medical educational institutions is closely related to the effective introduction into the educational process of various means of physical culture, which are used in free or specially allotted time. Involving students in the development of individual preventive and health programs «for themselves» will lead to selfactualization of physical exercises with a clear understanding of the goal and ways to achieve it against the background of the pandemic COVID-19.

The purpose of the article is to actualize the problem of forming a healthy lifestyle of medical students in the process of physical education and to determine the main directions of its solution in terms of distance learning.

The methodology of humanistic, theoretical and system approaches is used.

Scientific novelty is to determine the essence of a healthy lifestyle of medical students in distance learning, able to perform their professional duties in the difficult conditions of reforming modern medicine, to maintain their own health through physical education, which encourages self-development, stimulates independent work.

Conclusions. The formation of a healthy lifestyle of medical students is based on the need to introduce preventive and health programs, which gives grounds to argue about the positive changes in the physical activity of students in distance learning, while maintaining personal health using physical education.
