ABSTRACT:
The purpose of the present study was to find out the effect of circuit training on selected Physical Fitness variables among Inter Collegiate Men Handball players. To achieve the purpose of the study thirty inter collegiate Handball players in an age group of 19 to 25 were selected as subjects from the Arts and Science College. All the subjects were Under Graduate students. The selected subjects were divided in to two equal groups of fifteen subjects each as experimental group and control group. Both the group underwent their routine Handball Training and in addition of the above training the experimental group underwent specified circuit training morning one hour before starting the Handball Training in a schedule of weekly three days for the duration six weeks. The physical fitness variables of speed, agility and explosive power were selected as dependent variables. The pre and post tests were conducted before and after the six weeks experimental training. The collected data’s were statistically analyzed by using ANCOVA to find out the significant difference between the groups if any. In all cases 0.05 level of confidence was fixed as a level of confidence to test the hypothesis. It was concluded from the result of the study that the experimental group significantly improved the selected physical fitness variables of speed, agility and explosive power due to six weeks circuit training.
