Purpose: to develop an experimental methodology for developing flexibility and strength for savaters of the specialized basic training group and to verify its effectiveness. Material and methods. The study involved 10 male savaters. All athletes had been engaged in the specialized basic training group for 2 years. Their age was 15-18 years. The following methods were used to achieve the research goal: analysis of literary sources, pedagogical observations, pedagogical experiment, methods of mathematical statistics. Results: the experimental methodology for developing strength and flexibility involved implementing tasks in the stages we had determined; using tools, methods and methodological techniques selected in accordance with the periods of meso- and micro-cycles of organizing the training process of savaters of the specialized basic training group during the first half of the academic year. When determining the content of the experimental methodology, we were guided by information about: factors that determine the development of strength and flexibility, their importance in ensuring the technical and tactical actions of savaters, methodological foundations for developing strength and flexibility. The strength index of the shoulder girdle of the savaters is high, as evidenced by the results of the lifted weight, the average statistical value of which is 38 kg, which is 100 % of the fighter's body weight. In the test for determining the strength of the back muscles, the savaters also demonstrated high results compared to testing the strength of the shoulder girdle. Thus, in the incline with a barbell, the indicator of the lifted weight was 34 kg, which is 91 % of the fighter's average body weight. During the testing of the savaters, the highest indicators were shown in the squat with a barbell, which determines the strength of the leg muscles. The average result in this motor action was 40 kg, and in percentage terms to the average statistical indicator of the fighters' body weight it was 105 %. Conclusions. As a result of the pedagogical experiment, it was established that the proposed method of developing strength and flexibility in the savaters of the specialized basic training group is effective and appropriate for use in the educational and training process. The use of specially selected strength and stretching exercises contributed to a significant increase in physical fitness indicators. The results obtained confirm the possibility of implementing this method in the practice of training savaters of the specialized basic training group.
