Abstract: 

Introduction. The challenging issue is a lack of evidence-based standards for assessing physical readiness of students pursuing non-sport degrees. The aim of the research is to identify peculiarities of flexibility and endurance measures for 1st-3rd-year undergraduate students and justify the assessment standards.
Materials and Methods. Methods of educational research included physical readiness tests. The study involved 1st-3rd-year undergraduate students. The obtained data were processed using methods of mathematical statistics
Results. The authors revealed the peculiarities of flexibility and endurance changes in measures of 1st-3rd-year undergraduate students. The study has shown that females’ flexibility indicators significantly improve by the end of the 1st year, continue improving during the 2nd year and become stable in the third year. On the other hand, males’ flexibility reduces in the third year. Males’ endurance becomes most stable in first and second years and significantly reduce by the end of third year. Females’ endurance does not show significant changes between the 1st and the 3rd years. Consequently, the authors have revealed gender differences in flexibility and endurance among undergraduate students. According to the peculiarities of flexibility and endurance dynamics indicators, the authors have developed and justified assessment standards for undergraduate students.
Conclusions. The article concludes about peculiarities of flexibility and endurance dynamics indicators for 1st-3rd-year undergraduate students.
