Objective of the study was to determine the level of development of the aerobic and anaerobic energy supply mechanisms and physical capacity of the main muscle groups of top-class female boxers aged 15-16: chest and back muscles, shoulder muscles, thigh muscles, as well as their explosive force.
Methods and structure of the study. The training and testing methodology for 30 top-class female boxers was aimed to assess the aerobic and anaerobic energy potential and speed-strength capabilities of their main muscle groups: chest and back muscles, shoulder muscles, thigh muscles, as well as the explosive force of the neuromuscular system in general. The female athletes performed 12 exercises in the mode as follows: 15" - work + 15"- rest. At the beginning and at the end of testing, the subjects’ heart rate was measured (beats per minute). The test results were analyzed using a special computer program, where the standard units were calculated in the test for the aerobic and anaerobic energy supply, as well as the speed-strength capabilities of their main muscle groups: chest and back muscles, shoulder muscles, thigh muscles, as well as the explosive force.
Results of the study and conclusions. The studies identified the weak spots in the development of the speed-strength capabilities of the neuromuscular system of the top-class female boxers. It is shown that it is only the back muscles that are well developed relative to the model level (+3.6%). The functional state of the remaining muscle groups are below the model level, with an average delay of 18.5%. This fact confirms the shortcomings or lack of systematic and rational development of special speed-strength capabilities of the neuromuscular system of the 15-16 year-old female boxers.

Keywords: boxing, female boxers, neuromuscular system, speed-strength capabilities, test, exercises, energy supply.
