The article analyses the factor structure of the physical condition of girls aged 17-19 years. It was determined percentage of each factor and it was established that the general physical condition is determined by a group of four factors: physical development is 41.8 %, the functional state of the cardiovascular and respiratory system is 28.4 %, physical performance and coordination abilities are 12.4 %, physical readiness, in particular speed, speed-strength qualities, agility and flexibility -2.3 %, which together constitute 84.9 % of the explained dispersion. We have found out that the anthropometric status determines the physical condition even after the end of the puberty period. Most factor loading is accounted for the indicators that characterize the total body size: waist girth (r=-0.975 at p<0.01); chest girth (r=-0.966 at p<0.01); the pelvis girth of (r=-0.956 for p<0.01), as well as indicators characterizing the fat component: the sum of the skin-fat folds (r=-0.985 at p<0.01); the suprailiac skinfold, (r=-0.968 at p<0.01); the medial (inside) calf fold (r=-0.950 at p<0.01). Based on the analysis of the studied indicators, which form the basis of all four factors, there were obtained results that have the predictive value for the individualization and differentiation of the pedagogical process, as well as the influence assessment of the basic pedagogical tools and methods in the process of physical education.
