Abstract: The most common diseases among young people are respiratory diseases.Researchers on this problem unanimously express the opinion that the basis of the deterioration of a young person's health is a low level of motor activity.To date, there are no studies aimed at studying the effect of physical exercises on the key factors of bronchial asthma in student youth, which makes an inconclusive answer to the question of whether physical exercises improve the control and severity of the disease.This reflects a gap in knowledge about the possibility and expediency of using adaptive physical education in students suffering from bronchial asthma and the long-term effect of its use. The purpose of the study.To develop a technology for teaching students of higher education to breathe correctly, patients with bronchial asthma, and to study the dynamics of motor activity after its application.The level of physical activity (PhA) was determined according to the international questionnaire in abbreviated version (International physical activity questionnaire -IPAQ).The results.A two-stage technique of correct breathing was developed for students with bronchial asthma using complex breathing and relaxation training according to the Papworth method, which combines several types of breathing with relaxation training techniques in the first stage and learning the ability to arbitrarily change the rhythm, pace and amplitude of breathing exercises at rest and in combination with the movements of the limbs and trunk in the second stage.Conclusions.It was found that in girls after 3 months of using the technology PhA was observed 2.9 times less often (2=13.9;p=0.0002) with an increase in low PhA indicators by 16.4% compared to the initial stage (р<0.001).The number of girls with a high level of PhA increased by 7.5 times (2=11.0;p=0.0009).Among young men, there was a tendency for their number to increase with normal and high and to decrease with low PhA.Compared to the initial stage, in young men with a high level of PhA, its indicators increased by 11.8% (p < 0.05), and at a low level -by 9.5% (p<0.05).
