Objective of the study is to substantiate theoretically and experimentally an approach to improving the physical preparation of young men for participation in the Festival of Students of Universities of Physical Culture by the means of functional training.

Methods and structure of the study. Twenty young men of a physical culture university aged from 18 to 21 years took part in the experiment. The testing was based on the programme of the Festival of Students of Universities of Physical Culture, which includes the standing long jump with a two-footed take-off, pull-ups on the high bar, the 1 km run and the stages of the professional obstacle course (the high jump, the dive roll and 5 consecutive forward rolls).

Results and conclusions. Functional training including complex physical exercises was used to improve the physical preparation of students for participation in the Festival of Students of Universities of Physical Culture. The advantage of using this approach in terms of the rate of improvement of the results studied was revealed.
