Effects of Circuit Training on Cardio-Respiratory Endurance Among College Students

    The main purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of circuit training on cardiorespiratory endurance among college students. The thirty healthy and volunteered students were selected as subjects through Physical readiness questionnaire (PAR-Q) having an age of 18-22 years. Subjects were equally divided into two groups as Experimental and Control. The data on cardiorespiratory endurance was collected (before and after the treatment) of each subject of both groups through the Copper test. The treatment of circuit training was given to the experimental group three times a week on alternate days for 12 weeks. During the same period, the control group did not take part in any sort of special training except routine life activities. The data were analyzed by applying the paired sample t-test. The results show that circuit training of 12 weeks significantly improved cardio respiratory endurance in experimental group (p < 0.05) than control group.
