LEGAL BASIS OF MILITARY PERSONNEL PHYSICAL TRAINING IN THE CONTEXT OF EUROPEAN INTEGRATION

Abstract

The article examines the legal and organizational aspects of military personnel physical training in the context of European integration. The current state of physical training in military formations is analyzed, and prospects for its development in accordance with NATO standards are outlined. Special attention is paid to the legal aspects of military personnel's responsibility for improper performance of duties during physical fitness assessment. The peculiarities of integrating physical education into the professional training of cadets in Ukrainian law schools and the specifics of reserve officers training are studied. The research establishes that the existing methods of military personnel physical training require modernization, considering modern challenges and the requirements of Euro-Atlantic integration. A number of problems are noted, including the fragmentation in the functioning of the physical training system components, the lack of an individual approach, and insufficient practical testing of new methodologies. The authors emphasize the need for developing a comprehensive approach to physical training that takes into account not only athletic abilities but also the functional readiness and psychological resilience of military personnel. It is determined that an important direction for modernizing the physical training system is the implementation of modern technologies, including virtual reality, wearable devices for monitoring health indicators and physical activity. The expediency of an interdisciplinary approach with the involvement of specialists in sports, nutrition, and physiotherapy is substantiated. Ways to optimize the physical training of military personnel through the implementation of individualized training programs, the use of modern technologies and interdisciplinary approaches are proposed. The necessity of continuous monitoring and evaluation of physical training results to ensure the effective performance of service and combat tasks in the conditions of Euro-Atlantic integration is substantiated.
