The purpose of this study was to determine the general physical development and level of preparation of university students and to evaluate the effectiveness of a 64-hour physical training program for a period of 4 months.
The study involved 650 students from the National University of Mongolia, and their general physical development indicators were determined by a movement test. The results before and after the training program were compared and analyzed accordingly.
The results of the study showed that male students lost an average of 0.23 kg in body weight, 0.57 cm in chest circumference, and 0.11 cm in waist circumference, which is an increase in muscle mass and a decrease in fat tissue. Female students lost an average of 1.1 kg in body weight, 1.1 cm in chest circumference, and 2.3 cm in waist circumference, which is a result of increased metabolism and improved body shape.
The highest improvement in movement skill was in leg strength. The leg strength of male students increased by 10.3 cm and female students’ by 12.5 cm, which shows that the training program was implemented effectively. Abdominal strength of male students increased by 2.5 times and of female students by 3.2 times, which were important improvements. The hand stretching index increased by 1.2 times for male students and
1.5 times for female students, which shows the effectiveness of the training program. The flexibility index increased by 1 cm for male students and 2.24 cm for female students, but the standard deviation was higher than the other indicators, indicating that there are high differences due to individual body structure and joint mobility.
The effectiveness of a curriculum aimed at improving the general physical development and movement skills of university students has been confirmed by this study, and it is necessary to include a special program in the content and methodology of the curriculum in order to increase flexibility. It is also concluded that a long- term study with a larger number of respondents is necessary to further confirm the results of the study.
