In modern conditions of the educational process, students face physical inactivity and lack of time, which reduces the effectiveness of traditional forms of physical education. High-intensity interval training is a promising direction that allows achieving significant adaptive effects in a short period of time. The theoretical analysis and systematization of scientific data on the effectiveness of high-intensity interval training for the student population are a necessary step to justify their implementation in the educational process.

The relevance of this work is determined by the high prevalence of physical inactivity among students assigned to a special medical group for health reasons. The purpose of the study is to analyze the impact of physical education in a special medical group on the functional reserves of students’ body. A group of 20 first-year students was observed. Girls were engaged in physical culture during one school year. The examination at the beginning and end of the observation period included anthropometry, physiometry and functional testing.
