THE EFFECT OF SHORT-TERM INHALATIONS WITH CONCENTRATED OXYGEN ON TOLERANCE DURING VARIOUS TYPES OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN YOUNG HEALTHY PEOPLE

Abstract. The article presents the results of a study concerning the effect of short-term inhalations with concentrated oxygen on tolerance during various types of physical activity in young healthy people. Material and methods. The study involved 30 healthy volunteers mean age 23.6±3.78 years. The complex of general clinical investigations included functional tests of Ruffier, Stange, Genche was used. Results of investigation. It was found that running speed per 100 m after inhalation of highly concentrated oxygen increased 14.6%, which is significantly better than in control group 1 (p<0.05). The 500 m running speed increased 10.6% (p<0.05) after the course of oxygen inhalation, as well as an increase in anaerobic reserve and maximum aerobic capacity (p1 <0.05). The result of the parameter of limitation of the number of flexions and extensions of the hands in supine support in-group 1 was lower (18.6%) than the result of group 2 (p<0.05). As a whole, after the short-term inhalation of highly concentrated oxygen, the indicator under study increased 38.5% over the initial data. Conclusions. Short-term inhalations with concentrated oxygen increase tolerance at different types of physical activity in young healthy people.
