The article addresses issues related to improving the system of staged comprehensive examination (SCE) of the functional readiness of high-level combat athletes. The relevance of the study is dictated by the lack of objective data on specific physiological responses of the body, which are necessary for effective management of the training process. The purpose of the study is to scientifically substantiate a program of phased comprehensive examination for monitoring the functional state of highly qualified combat athletes (using judo and wrestling as examples). Research methods: analysis of specialized scientific publications and generalization of results from long-term experimental studies, analysis of physiological reactions of wrestlers and judokas to competitive load (biochemical control, laboratory testing, pedagogical testing). Research results and conclusions. Based on the analysis of metabolic indicators (heart rate, lactate concentration, blood pH, oxygen debt), the extreme nature of the demands on aerobic and anaerobic energy systems under combat conditions has been confirmed. It has been established that winners demonstrate smaller lactate shifts during high-intensity work, indicating superiority in specialized endurance and the economization of functions. As a result of the conducted studies, a new SCE program was proposed, including an expanded battery of laboratory tests to assess the power, capacity, and efficiency of key bioenergetic processes, as well as the necessity of conducting specific 'field' tests to evaluate the current level of athletes' specialized endurance. This approach allows for the identification of factors limiting performance and the individualization of training load planning to achieve peak athletic form for competitions.
