Abstract

The article examines the role of music in various aspects of fitness training, in particular its impact on the physiological and psychological state, motivation, coordination of movements and the effectiveness of exercise performance. The mechanisms of interaction between the rhythm of music and movements are considered, and the impact of different musical genres on different types of training is analyzed.Music is an important component of modern fitness programs, as it is able to improve the quality of exercise performance, motivation and overall effectiveness of training. The rhythm and tempo of music affect the level of physical activity, coordination of movements, and also help reduce the feeling of fatigue. The article examines the mechanisms of interaction between music and physical activity, analyzes the impact of different musical genres on the psycho-emotional state and physical endurance. Special attention is paid to the use of music in group classes, such as aerobics, dance training and yoga, as well as individual programs. Recommendations for selecting musical accompaniment for different types of training depending on their purpose and intensity are considered. Music is a powerful tool that can significantly increase the effectiveness of fitness training. Its proper use contributes to achieving better results, improving mood and overall well-being. Due to its versatility, music helps to make training not only useful, but also enjoyable. Music not only supports physical activity, but also acts as an important tool for regulating biological and psychological processes during training. The clear rhythm of music helps athletes focus on performing exercises, reducing the influence of external distracting factors. This is important for both professional athletes and amateurs who seek to improve the quality of their training. The use of music in sports and methodological work is more than a trend; it is a strategic tool that harmoniously combines physical effort with emotional uplift. Fitness training in combination with music creates an ideal synergy of movement and rhythm, which contributes not only to physical development, but also to emotional satisfaction.
