Abstract
The aim of the work is to study the life style of university teachers at the age of 50-65 years, depending on the level of physical activity and its connection with behavioral habits. Material and methods. For a survey of 150 respondents, a special questionnaire was developed. Anthropometric examination was performed, according to which the body mass index was calculated for each sex-age group according to the generally accepted formula. All data are processed by the method of parametric statistics. Results. The general tendency of all respondents among the majority of respondents indicates that teachers of the elderly spend much of their free time watching TV or reading and have very little physical activity. The majority of the respondents are engaged in housing affairs, but they want to deal with public affairs. There is a tendency for non-smoking, only a small number of those surveyed are smokers, and the others have never smoked, or quit smoking more than 10 years ago. A large number of smokers is observed among the partners of the respondents. The majority have many friends and relatives who can help in achieving the highest level of physical activity, but few partners of the sportsmen are engaged in sports regularly. Some habits that are useful for health are observed in the life styles of all participants in the survey. Conclusion. In general, the obtained data testify to the expediency of searching for effective ways of attracting university teachers of pre-retirement age into active recreational activities. In addition, the study has proved the availability of the necessary spare time reserves.
