The purpose of the study was to determine the impact of the author's program of physical training in military pentathlon on the sports readiness of teams. Materials and methods. To solve the goal, an experimental and control groups were formed, the results of special physical fitness of the subjects were determined, a comparative analysis of the indicators of competitive activity of athletes was carried out. The following methods were used to obtain objective data: theoretical methods (analysis and generalization of literature sources and empirical data); documentary method (analysis of official CISM documents); pedagogical methods (observation, experiment); testing the initial and final levels of general and special physical fitness of athletes; methods of mathematical statistics. The research was conducted in several stages with consistent and parallel solution of work tasks in the period from 2017 to 2019. The first stage (January 2017 – November 2017) was aimed at analyzing and summarizing data from special literature, publications and research. The second stage (November 2017 – November 2019) involved a formative pedagogical experiment, which tested the effectiveness of the author's program of physical training of pentathletes. To test the effectiveness of the experimental training program, experimental (n = 20) and control groups (n = 28) were formed, in which all cadets in military pentathlon had the same level of sports training. The cadets of Hetman Petro Sahaidachnyi National Ground Forces Academy (n = 20) were included in the experimental group, and the cadets of seven high educational institutions of Ukraine (n = 28) – in the control group. The distribution was based on the results of preliminary testing using the method of random sampling. Results and discussion. The results of the study confirmed that it is impossible to achieve high results in military pentathlon without continuous improvement of the organization, content and methods of implementation of this pedagogical process in the stages of preparation of military athletes for competitions. It is confirmed that one of the leading reasons for improving performance is related to the transfer of the training effect, namely the positive and sensitive period, which is characteristic of these physical qualities at the age stage in which the subjects were. Other reasons were related to the used load parameters planning, means and methods of training. The sports result of experimental group, namely the level of special physical fitness of the military pentathletes of the National Armed Forces in the conditions of the physical training program, significantly improved in the first (5.8%, p <0.05) and second (6.1%, p <0.05) stages of the study and as a result significantly increased by 11.5% (p <0.01). On the other hand, in the control groups 1-7 the tendency to increase sports results was not confirmed statistically. Conclusion. It has been proved that the author’s program of physical training of athletes in military pentathlon in the high educational institutions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is not inferior to the traditional one in terms of efficiency. Significant differences (p <0.05 – p <0.001) in the amount of points scored at the Championship of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in military pentathlon between the participants of experimental and control groups (control group 1, control groups 3-7) after the end of the pedagogical experiment were determined
