Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2011, Vol 161, Issue 3

Abstract

This study was undertaken in order to evaluate the level of physical fitness of boys from the Secondary Aviation School (SAS) (OLL) in Dęblin in respect of a comparative group. Examinations of physical fitness were conducted in December 2009 and covered 129 pupils. Their fitness was evaluated with the use of a battery of motor tests being a part of the European Physical Fitness Test (EUROFIT). In each age category, arithmetic means and standard deviations were calculated for the results achieved in all motor tests. Differences in the level of physical fitness between the surveyed boys and their average peers inhabiting the Lubelskie Province were determined with a T point scale. In turn, the significance of difference was evaluated with the use of the Student’s test for independent variables. The boys from SAS in Dęblin were characterized by a higher level of general physical fitness, as compared to their average peers. Distinct differences were noted in the tests of upper limb speed, explosive strength, trunk strength, trunk suppleness and functional strength. It should be noticed, however, that the boys examined were characterized by a significantly lower level of balance. In the other analyzed tests, the differences in the level of physical fitness were not so remarkable
