Abstract: The research aimed to scrutinize the impact of weight training on the nuanced development of motor fitness components, encompassing speed, agility, flexibility, explosive power, cardiovascular endurance, and muscular endurance. A cohort of 120 students enrolled in diverse colleges within the Meerut district, affiliated with Chaudhary Charan Singh University, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, served as the subjects for this investigation. Specifically selected from the realm of Handball players, where these motor fitness components assume paramount significance, the average age of the participants was 21 years, spanning an age range from 18 to 28 years. The study employed a meticulous methodology by segregating the participants into two distinct groups - the Control Group and the Experimental Group, each comprising 60 subjects, selected through a random sampling technique. The Experimental Group embarked on an intensive 12-week training regimen encompassing both weight training and skill development sessions, whereas the Control Group adhered to their routine activities without the prescribed interventions. Data collection occurred at the commencement and culmination of the 12-week experimental period, demarcating pre- and post-tests. Through this comprehensive approach, the research sought to unravel the intricate interplay between weight training and the multifaceted dimensions of motor fitness in the context of Handball players. The investigation not only contributes to the scientific understanding of the subject matter but also holds potential implications for refining training protocols and optimizing athletic performance within the realm of collegiate Handball.
