The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of loading intensity of weight training and circuit weight training on physical fitness by comparing the exercise results of student groups. College of physical education-bound students were sampled for the study. The sample was divided into five groups. Four groups exercised three sets of weight training with the loading intensity 80%, 50% of 1RM each and three times of circuit weight training with the same loading intensity for eight weeks while the other group did not do any training. Weight and circuit training proceeded according to the elements of physical fitness such as power, agility, flexibility, muscular fitness, muscular endurance, speed which are usually estimated in most physical ability tests for admission to a college of physical education. In conclusion, both the tested four groups and the regulated group displayed some different increase in the record after exercising. However, there was no record difference revealed due to training method. It is considered that the weight training effect which weight training and circuit weight training have in common led to this result.
