Background: Correction of the training system in various sports based on the previous competition results analysis is a common practice allowing to quickly increase the training level.However, such studies have not been conducted in MMA for athletes who primarily use a wrestling or striking style of fighting.The purpose of the study was the development and practical implementation of an integral methodology for improving the precompetition training of athletes, taking into account their fighting style, based on the analysis of the previous competitions results.Material and methods: 10 athletes of the Ukrainian national MMA junior team (16-17 years old) took part in the study.At the first stage of the study, the training process of the pre-competition mesocycle and the 2022 European MMA Championship results were analyzed.At the second stage, the methodology for correcting the training process was developed and implemented during 2 months of precompetition preparation for the 2022 MMA World Championship.At the third stage, there was a comparative analysis of the athletes' performance results in both competitions.Results: The study showed that using the "classical" method of pre-competition preparation for the European Championship contributed to the fact that during the competition, 68.7% of the fights were won.The use of the experimental methodology for two months of training contributed to the development of maximal strength by 8.8% in athletes with wrestling style and by 20.6% in athletes with striking style of fighting.The practical implementation of increasing the adaptive body reserves during pre-competition training was carried out during the World Championship.84.4% of the total number of fights were won.At the same time, the number of fights, which ended early by knockout, painful or choke hold, or with a clear advantage, increased by 19.0% compared to the results of the European Championship.Conclusions: The use of the integral training method allowed increasing the implementation of technical skills and functional capabilities of athletes, taking into account their style of fighting in competitive activities.
