Screening-diagnostics of posture disorders and performance management of correctional fitness programs

Objective: a comparative performance evaluation of fitness programs for students from 1-3 courses of the Moscow Academy of water transport (MGAVT) with confirmed medical diagnosis of «Idiopathic scoliosis of 1 degree» using the method of screening diagnostics APC «Osancomer». Materials and methods: two groups of students from 1 – 3 courses of the Moscow branch of the Academy of water transport (MGAVT) at the age of 17-19 years were formed (n=12 in each group). All participants had the same type of posture disorders in the form of initial manifestations of scoliotic disease of the thoracic spine with a curvature angle of V. D. Chaklin from 3 to 5° («Ideopathic scoliosis of the I degree»). A new correctional fitness program was developed and applied for the main group, the comparison group (control) used only conventional exercises previously used in violations of posture. Results: comparative studies of the morphofunctional spine state of the subjects, carried out using the method of screening diagnostics of APC «Osancomer», in both groups before the experiment (BE) and after the experiment (AE), demonstrated a statistically significant positive dynamics. The severity of scoliotic disease decreased (reducing the angles of inclination α, β, γ by 3-3,5°) in the main group. In comparison with the control group in order to improve the physical culture and health technology a modernized correction program by including elements of fitness was used in the main group. Conclusions: as the results of the study show, the improvement of the generally accepted corrective techniques by including additional means of health-improving physical culture with elements of fitness aerobics improves the morphological and functional state of the spine and muscles forming a muscular corset. The positive dynamics of these indicators gives reason to believe that such a directed effect on the body of students, in particular students of the Academy of water transport, strengthens the weakened functional capabilities of the deep and superficial muscles of the back, the lateral surface of the trunk, abdominal, interosseous muscles. This increases the endurance and ability of the entire muscular system to maintain static stability and correct position of the spine.
