Author(s): Dr. Kunal Sardar

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of ten weeks physical training programme named by circuit training and aerobic fitness programme of school girls. The study was consisted to 9th and 10th grade school girls of Khirpai S.K.B.M. Girls’ High School, District-Paschim Medinipur, West Bengal, India and their age was ranged between 13th to 15th years. Thereafter subjects were subdivided randomly into three equal groups consisting of 30 subjects in each group. Two experimental designs, i.e., circuit training and aerobic fitness programmes were randomly assigned to the two groups, named by experimental groups (aerobic fitness group, circuit training group), while the remaining group was studied as control group. The composite scores of individual items of AAHPER Youth Fitness Test battery were studied as criterion measures. In order to investigate the comparative effect of each training method on physical fitness of the secondary school girls, the analysis of co-variance statistics was used. On the basis of analysis within the limitation imposed on the experimental conditions researchers came to the following conclusions that the circuit training programme is found to be more effective in developing physical fitness of secondary school girls than that of aerobic fitness programme.
