Annotation

The subject deals with basic morpho-functional changes during original phases of human ontogenesis. Emphasis is particularly put on the dynamics of cardiorespiratory and neuromuscular indicators in children of school age.

Problems of the physical loading of the children's organism, its pros and cons, are dealt with separately.
