Abstract

The study was designed to investigate the effects of varied frequencies of circuit training on selected motor ability components of college men students. For this 45 male students of Ananda College Devakkottai, TamilNadu were selected as subjects. Their age ranged from 18 to 25 years. They were divided into three equal groups namely Experimental Group-I, Experimental Group-II, and Control Group. In a week the Experimental Group-I underwent 3 days circuit training, Experimental Group-II underwent 5 days circuit training and Control Group was not given any specific training. The following criterion variables were chosen namely, speed, Agility and Explosive power. They assessed before and after the training period of 6 weeks. The analysis of covariance was used to analyze the data. The study revealed that the motor ability components such as speed and agility were significantly improved due to influence of 3 days and 5 days circuit training.
