This paper analyzes the well-known specialized literature on the proper coverage of the problems of strength abilities development in wrestlers of different sports styles, as a leading motor quality in the creation of technical and tactical skills. The purpose of the research was the theoretical analysis of the characteristics of the training process in wrestling concerning the creation of strength abilities at the modern stage of sports improvement. Material and methods. This research was conducted using the method of specialized literature analysis and practical experience interpretation. The information was analyzed chronologically in the textbooks, monographs, papers, teaching aids and other publications (available up to 2020) about the sports training of the wrestlers. The extraction and presentation of the data focused on the methods and means for developing the strength abilities. Results and discussion. The specialized literature referring to various types of martial arts has been thoroughly studied. The analysis has made a comparison between the content and significance of the bibliographic sources and has assessed their importance for the training process. These sources recommend the use of certain methods and means for developing the strength abilities of the wrestlers of different styles based on the general and special didactic principles of sports training. Considering all the factors that determine the effectiveness of wrestlers’ competitive activity, the means and methods necessary for the implementation of complex technical and tactical actions in wrestling were submitted to experimental validation. Special attention was paid to the most important elements of techniques, variability of motion actions depending on the emerging dynamic situations, switching from one technique to another. The development of general didactic principles in sports is focused on educational training. The general didactic principles, together with a wide range of knowledge related to sports training are only the basis for the formation of special patterns and principles. Special principles do not strictly standardize the structure and content of athletes' training, but they are generalizations and methodological guidelines that provide rational support and a solid scientific platform for this training. The results of the study of specialized literature revealed the necessity for broad coverage of the ways to implement the specific principles in the training of wrestlers. The available specialized literature sources showed that the wrestlers’ strength development was perceived as a secondary part of training compared to the improvement of their technical skills. Conclusion. Carrying out the theoretical analysis of the training process features in wrestling pointed out the recommendations of the methods and means used to develop the strength skills of the wrestlers according to the general and special principles of the sports training
