Improving the process of physical education of cadets of military universities of Kazakhstan is an urgent problem, in solving which it is necessary to take into account the professional and applied orientation of their training in relation to specific types of service and combat activities and diverse climatic and geographical conditions, because insufficiently developed physical abilities often hinder the mastery of professional skills. Along with the general applied orientation of the system of physical education in military universities of Kazakhstan, it is necessary to provide special profiling of classes in relation to combat training – specific types of service activities and upcoming service in various terrain (in the steppe, in the mountains, in the forest). Most types of professional activities of military personnel are generally inaccessible without prior physical training, therefore, targeted physical training improves the quality of vocational training and at the same time gives a significant economic effect, since the time and material costs for training appropriately qualified personnel are reduced.
