Parameters of the cardiorespiratory system of students engaged in sports and studying in the North
The article describes the study of the circulatory and respiratory parameters of students involved in sports activities under the weather conditions of the Far North. All the parameters in question showed a positive trend, increasing from the first to the third year of study. The tendency for more economical operation of the circulatory system in older athletes prevailed. The adaptive potential of young people involved in sports activities in the Far North corresponded to the satisfactory adaptation level. The identified specific features of the cardiorespiratory system of the athletes who have adapted to the northern conditions do not demonstrate any overstrain of adaptation mechanisms. This means that the training load proves to be acceptable in terms of body functional systems of the examined individuals.
