Introduction
Cardiorespiratory system appearance, one of the most important functional systems, became the result of a difficult and a long-term physiological process of cardiovascular and respiratory systems study [1, 8]. It is actively studied during recent years in terms of different exogenous and endogenous factors [5, 6, 11, 14]. Cardiorespiratory system, as the results of many research works showed, is developed during constant ontogenesis and endurance based sports mastering [2, 3, 4]. The effectiveness of cardiorespiratory system manly conditions sport achievements in cyclic kinds of sport. There an adequate athletes' organism provision with oxygen is important [15].
The aim of the research was to study the parameters of cardiorespiratory system as an important instrument for expedient individual approach revelation during physical loads planning in cyclic kinds of sport.
Materials and methods
The respondents were athletes, who were involved into endurance based kinds of sport. 4 groups were formed. The first group included athletes-teenagers at the age of 15-16, the 2nd group included young athletes at the age of 17-21, the 3rd group included adult athletes at the age of 22-35 and the 4th group included athletes-veterans at the age of 36-60. We defined the indices of cardiovascular
system during the research among all respondents. These indices included the following: stroke volume and minute blood volume (SV, MBV). They are calculated according to differentiated rheogram [2, 12]. The indices of respiratory system: frequency of respiration (FR), respiration volume (RV), minute respiration volume (MRV) were defined with the help of pneumotography. Index of blood circulation (IB), cardiac index (CI), the coefficient of oxygen use (COU2) and arteriovenous difference according to oxygen (AVDO2) were calculated with the help of generally adopted formulae [9]. The respondents fulfilled the load at a bicycle ergometer. The load was gradually increasing from 50 to 200 W, during this process all mentioned above indices of heart and respiration activity were defined.
Results and discussion
Cardiorespiratory system is an important mechanism of adaptation [7, 8]. Its reaction to physical load can show functional state and reserve capacities of athletes' organism [3, 4]. That is why
studying and analysis of this system activity is one of the parts of an individual approach during athletes' educational-training process planning.
High values of some parameters of cardiorespiratory system are considered the sign of the ability to form adaptive response on environment influence (in the present research- physical loads). However insignificant increase of all elements of this system gives its positive characteristics. High values of external respiration, in particular minute respiration volume (MRV), show inability of cardiovascular system to react adequately to considerable physical loads. In our research works it was demonstrated in the groups of athletes. They are involved into endurance based kinds of sport, at the age of 15-16 and 36-60. Such a reaction of respiration proves minimal functional capacities of heart and gas exchange function. However, in the group of 15-16 year-old teenagers it was achieved owing to frequency of respiration (FR) increase, in the groups of 36-60 year-old athletes it was achieved owing to respiration volume (RV) increase (table 1).

In both cases such a reaction shows the importance of respiratory system during cyclic character loads fulfillment by the athletes of this age. That is why in order to achieve high results in endurance based kinds of sport among 15-16 year-old and 36-60 year-old athletes, it is necessary to develop external respiration function by means of the training lessons directed toward aerobic abilities development, using level and alternating methods of sport training. Control over this function is reasonable to realize with the help of vital capacity (VC) determination, using dry portable spirometer during the definite days of educational-training
process. It is better to do it when there are days of insignificant physical loads, during rehabilitation or supporting training lessons.
Among 17-21 year-old athletes the most significant indices turned out to be the following: index of blood circulation (IB) and cardiac index (CI), the increase of which was in case of stroke volume and minute blood volume (SV and MBV) increase during the increasing power load fulfillment by the athletes at a bicycle ergometer (table 2). In some cases during maximal physical tension athletes' cardiac output was 40-45 l/min [10].

For highly-qualified athletes at the age of 22-35 the indices connected with gas exchange are extremely important - the coefficient of oxygen use (COU2) and arteriovenous difference according to oxygen (AVDO2) (table 3).The increase of these
indices proves gas exchange function inclusion. It is the most reasonable during oxygen provision. In this connection in order to achieve high sport results in cyclic kinds of sport, connected with endurance formation, it is necessary to develop
the ability of an organism to increase the following parameters of heart activity: SV, MBV and gas exchanging function. It can be achieved owing to interval and repetitive methods of training use in the training process, as they provide cardiac muscle growth. It has a positive influence on sport results
in endurance based kinds of sport. The control over these indices increase is necessary to realize in laboratory environment with the help of testing loads and reaction of cardiovascular and respiratory systems during complex examination of athletes.

Conclusion
Thus, during cardiorespiratory system indices study as an important instrument for an individual approach revelation during physical loads planning in cyclic kinds of sport, which develop endurance, it is necessary to take into consideration cardiovascular and respiratory systems indices. These indices include the following: minute respiration volume, index of blood circulation, cardiac index, the coefficient of oxygen use and arteriovenous difference according to oxygen. These indices can be considered the effectiveness criteria of reserve capacities of athletes' cardiorespiratory system in endurance based kinds of sport and the factor of sports training process optimization [11,
13].
