Findings on motor activity impact on health status of children of primary school age are discussed. It is revealed that among first grade children dynamics of health conditions, physical development and physical readiness and characteristics of cardiac rhythm regulation evenly are impacted by regimen of disciplined motor activity during school year. At that, actual and as a rule increased school load of growing child combined with decreased motor activity negatively impacts health and morphologic functional characteristics of first grade children. Research findings were used to develop regional standards of assessment of physical development and physical readiness of seven-year-old children to be applied in pediatrician practice. Standards are to be used during mass and individual medical check-ups, medical groups assignment for physical training and sporting sections selection. Organizational technologies of intersectoral approach are discussed.

Objective: The objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of low-load blood flow restriction training (LL-BFRT) to heavy-load resistance training (HL-RT) in male collegiate athletes with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNLBP).
Methods: Twenty-six participants were randomly assigned to LL-BFRT ( = 13) or HL-RT ( = 13). All participants supervised exercises (deep-squat, lateral pull-down, bench-press and machine seated crunch) cycled 4 times per week for 4 weeks (16 sessions).
