The study was to discover the application of 18-weeks HIIT (high intensity interval training) strength training on maximum strength and muscular power performance among college level athletes. Total N=25 (twenty five) college level men athletes of various sports participated from AP and their age period ranged from 18 years to 25 years as per subject’s school records. The selected men athletes treated with HIIT (high intensity interval training) strength training for duration of 18-weeks, three sessions in a week and 60-minutes each session. The measurement of maximum strength and muscular power performance scores was collected through 1 RM bench press test (kilogram) and medicine ball throw test (meters) before and after the completion of specific training. The collected scores were analyzed through paired ‘t’ test and level of significant was restricted at 0.05 levels. The study found that eighteen weeks of HIIT (high intensity interval training) strength training found effective for significant increase in 1 RM bench press test and medicine ball throw performance of college men athletes.
