Objective of the study was to identify new aspects of the strength training of swimmers based on the results of foreign studies.
Methods and structure of the study. More than 170 sources of foreign literature published over the past six years have been analyzed.
Results and conclusions. According to the results of modern foreign studies, new aspects of the strength training of swimmers have been identified, relating to adaptive changes when using power loads of different intensities, the correspondence of strength exercises to the biomechanical structure of swimming, the use of explosive strength exercises to improve the start and turns, the development of strength training programs taking into account the features of adaptation, optimization means and methods, reducing the risk of injury.

Keywords: swimming, strength training, foreign studies, strength qualities, training loads, adaptive changes.
