The technique is an integral part of the structure of physical education and recreation activities for older men, based on strength exercises with their own weight and optimal load parameters. The effectiveness of the developed methodology for applying methods of strength abilities was proved during a five-year pedagogical experiment, the participants of which were men in the age range from 60–64 to 65–69 years.
