Abstract
The article, based on the analysis of scientific literature and research results, provides a description of the human cardiovascular system, a description of the signs of its normality and pathology. The main anatomical characteristics of the cardiovascular system are specified, the main indicators of its functioning are given, in particular, heart rate and blood pressure. It is noted that according to the "heart rate" indicator, normocardia, tachycardia and bradycardia are diagnosed; the concept of "sports bradycardia" is a variant of the norm for athletes. For the "blood pressure" indicator, there are three normal categories (according to the recommendations of experts of the World Health Organization): optimal, normal, high normal blood pressure. The digital characteristics of these indicators are indicated. The specified types of disorders of the circulatory system, statistical data on the prevalence of diseases of the circulatory system among the population of Ukraine and other countries of the world are given. The article also describes the basics of cardiorehabilitation, which is an important part of treatment: its goals and objectives are indicated. One of the main means of cardiorehabilitation - physical activity - is described in detail. The frequency, intensity, duration and type of physical activity in cardiorehabilitation are characterized. Detailed advice is given on calculating the intensity of loads based on the maximum heart rate and reserve heart rate on the basis of the estimated age-related heart rate. Such methods will help people with the specified pathology to properly organize and control the process of physical rehabilitation, and may also be useful for primary prevention
