The parcourse training group trained for three alternative days in a week for twelve weeks with three sets per exercise per session at 60 to 80% with a progressive increase in load with the number of weeks. Speed and strength endurance were selected as criterion variables and they were tested by using 50 metres dash and Bent knee sit–ups respectively.
