Abstract :

The purpose of this study was to know the comparative effect of Plyometric Training and Circuit Training on volleyball playing ability. One hundred twenty professional trainees, age ranging between 20 to 23 years acted as subjects and assigned to three groups (two experimental and one control group) with 30 students each. The two experimental groups were Circuit Training and Plyometric Training groups. Selected physiological variables were measured before and after training. All the experimental Groups (Circuit training and Plyometric training) were administered with the selected exercises, thrice in a week for a duration of 12 weeks under direct supervision of the researcher. The analysis of data revealed that the two experimental groups, showed significant gains in performance on volleyball playing ability after administration of training for duration of 12 weeks. The control group did not show any significant increase in the performance.
