The article indicates that in solving the problems of upbringing the independence of cadet-student youth in the process of physical education, the following methods were effective: competition, personal example, solving problem situations, dialogue, persuasion, creating situations of success and others. In addition, effective educational conditions for the studied phenomenon have been determined: compliance of the content of physical culture lessons with the goal and the established tasks; readiness of cadets and students to perform independent tasks related to future professional activities; the ability of students to show the best individual and personal qualities aimed at achieving the goal.
