Introduction. The post-activation stimulation method (PASM) and the unstable force field method (UFFM) are known as promising methods of strength training for highly qualified ski jumpers, but questions about effectiveness of their combination with technical training on the hill and the impact on the ski jumping technique remain poorly explored. This point determines the direction of this study. The purpose of the study - to evaluate the influence of the post-activation stimulation method (PASM) and the unstable force field method (UFFM) on the ski jumping technique. Methodology and organization of the study. The pedagogical experiment, in which 14 highly qualified ski jumpers took part (7 MS, 4 ICMS and 3 HMS), was carried out for 2 years: in the seasons 2021-2022 and 2022-2023. In the 2021-2022 season, strength training was carried out using «traditional» methods. In the 2022-2023 season, strength training for women began to be carried out mainly by the post-activation stimulation method (PASM), and for men - by the unstable force field method (UFFM). Technique was assessed using self-assessment and peer review methods. The results of the study. The Unstable Force Field Method (UFFM) and the Post-Activation Stimulation Method (PASM) have different but positive effects on the technical readiness of highly skilled ski jumpers, including their subjective perception of the technical mistakes they make. Using the post-activation stimulation method (PASM) contributes to the growth of technical readiness only for those athletes who initially made a large number of technical errors and is not effective for athletes who make a small number of such errors. Conclusions. The unstable force field method (UFFM) is more effective for increasing the subjective perception of technical errors, and, consequently, their subsequent correction, in comparison with both the «traditional» method of strength training, and with the post-activation stimulation method (MPAS)
