In this article, the author examines the ways and means to improve the effectiveness of physical education in a university on example of qualitative improvement of standing long jump results during physical training lessons. The fact, that university students do not always show good results when passing the standard tests of GTO physical culture and sports complex, proves the relevance and necessity of this work. The purpose of the study is to increase the students' standing long jump results in a relatively short time. The research tasks: to improve the standing long jump technique; selection and effective application of physical training means (speed-strength exercises) to increase the standing long jump results; the development of muscle groups that increase jumping results. The main method in the study of this problem is pedagogical experiment, as well as the method of statistical processing of quantitative research results. 40 third-year students took part in the experiment. The results of the experiment clearly showed that using this complex of speed-strength exercises made it possible, in a short period of time, to increase the students' standing long jump results significantly. Thus, the most effective speed-strength physical exercises are determined, which, in the author's opinion, can be effectively used in the process of physical training by students to improve their results in this kind of jumps. The study showed that systematic work to increase the speed and strength of students, the development of leg muscles during physical training lessons allows not only to improve qualitative results in standing long jump, but also to solve the educational and recreational tasks of physical culture effectively, that increase the overall physical condition of students. Achieving goals in this work allows us to reveal the potential capabilities of students in this type of physical exercise comprehensively. This work will help specialists who are performing physical training in higher education institutions to help students in improving their results in the specific form of the control test (standing long jump) while passing the GTO standards.
