Abstract

The aim of the study was to assess the importance of a healthy lifestyle for fulfilling official duties by the law enforcement officers. Used methods. Method of pedagogical experiment. The research was conducted using the testing method. The analysis of the obtained data was carried out through correlation. Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was chosen as its coefficient. The validity of the test was determined by the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. Results. The criteria for the persistent healthy lifestyle of future law enforcement officers at the stage of professional development are identified. It was determined that the main criteria are: physical training and sports, active leisure time, abandonment of bad habits, observing the daily routine and self-improvement through the acquisition of health knowledge. The dynamics and levels of a persistent healthy lifestyle among future law enforcement officers in the first, second and third years of training were determined through testing. It was found that the general level of a persistent healthy lifestyle in future law enforcement officers is assessed as sufficient. Unreliable (p>0.05) deterioration during studies at a higher educational institution (HEI) was found. Conclusions. It can be stated that a healthy lifestyle has a positive effect on the development of professional qualities of law enforcement officers. Prospects. The prospects for further research include the development of training methods that will contribute to increasing the level of a persistent healthy lifestyle in future law enforcement officers at the stage of professional development.

Key words: health maintenance, physical strength, power structures, government agencies, physical development.
