Abstract :

The purpose of this study was to investigate the Impact of Moderate Intensity Circuit Training programme on Explosive Power and Anaerobic Performance of NRI students. The study involved forty male students (N=40) aged between 14 to 17 years, were randomly selected from Indian School, Doha–Qatar. The students were randomly divided into two group, Experimental Group (EG; N=20) and Control Group (CG; N=20). Baseline data of Explosive Power (EP) measured in Standing Broad Jump (SBJ) and Anaerobic Performance (AP) measured in anaerobic sprint test 50m were collected. The Moderate Intensity Circuit Training (MICT) includes 9 stations of one circuit with duration of 45/60 seconds of work/rest, 2 min rest in between the set. The training was performed for three days in a week for duration of 8 weeks. Data were analyzed by paired ‘t’ test statistically significant level was set at 0.01. After the MICT programme, Explosive Power and Anaerobic Performance were significantly in the experimental group P<0.01 level of significant. The result showed that moderate intensity circuit training programme was effective to increase Explosive Power and Anaerobic Performance among NRI students.
