      <abstract xml:lang="ru">
        <p>Старение представляет собой процесс накопления изменений в организме с течением времени, приводящий к повышению риска смертности. Известно, что регулярное выполнение физических упражнений способствует снижению риска смертности как от всех причин, так и от конкретных. Одним из положительных эффектов физических упражнений является улучшение физической работоспособности. Цель исследования – обзор и анализ научной литературы о связи между различными параметрами физической работоспособности (сила хвата, кардиореспираторная подготовленность, скорость походки), признаками саркопении (мышечная масса, аппендикулярная масса мышц) и скоростью биологического старения на основании эпигенетических часов, а также длины теломер. Поиск публикаций был проведен в научных текстовых базах PubMed (MEDLINE), Cochrane Library, Epistemonikos, Scopus и SPORTDiscus в соответствии с контрольными списками PRISMA-S и PRESS. Даты запросов – октябрь 2024 года и февраль 2025 года. Глубина запроса – 2015–2024 годы. Для обеспечения качества обзора литературы использовалась шкала оценки повествовательных обзорных статей SANRA. Согласно результатам наблюдательных исследований, а также исследований с Менделевской рандомизацией, более высокий уровень физической работоспособности коррелирует с более молодым эпигенетическим профилем, а также с большей длиной теломер, хотя данные некоторых работ противоречивы. В целом полученные сведения указывают на то, что поддержание/повышение физических кондиций будет способствовать снижению скорости биологического старения и увеличению продолжительности здоровой жизни. Необходимы дальнейшие исследования для подтверждения причинно-следственной связи между уровнем физической работоспособности и скоростью биологического старения для разработки профилактических мероприятий, нацеленных на продление периода здоровой жизни.</p>

      <trans-abstract xml:lang="en">
        <p>Ageing is the accumulation of changes in the body over time, leading to an increased risk of mortality. It is known that regular physical exercise helps to reduce the risk of mortality, both from all causes and from specific causes. One of the positive effects of exercise is increased physical performance. This article aimed to review and analyse literature on the relationship between various parameters of physical performance (grip strength, cardiorespiratory fitness, gait speed), signs of sarcopenia (appendicular skeletal muscle mass) and the rate of biological ageing based on the epigenetic clock and telomere length. A search was conducted in the databases PubMed (MEDLINE), Cochrane Library, Epistemonikos, Scopus and SPORTDiscus in accordance with the PRISMA-S and PRESS checklists. Query dates are October 2024 and February 2025, query depth is 2015–2024. The SANRA scale for assessing narrative review articles was used. According to observational and mendelian randomization studies, higher levels of physical performance correlate with a younger epigenetic profile and greater telomere length, although some studies have conflicting results. On the whole, the data obtained indicate that maintaining/improving physical fitness parameters will help to reduce the rate of biological ageing and increase healthy life expectancy. Further research is needed to confirm the cause-and-effect relationship between the level of physical performance and the rate of biological ageing in order to develop preventive measures to extend the period of healthy life.</p>
