Archery-specific physical fitness improved significantly in both training groups after eight weeks of medicine ball exercises.
Participants in the medicine ball training groups (3 kg and 4 kg) demonstrated enhanced balance and muscular endurance with p < 0.05.
The true experimental design involved thirty collegiate archers divided into three groups across an eight-week program.
Findings indicate both moderate load variations effectively enhance archery-related fitness, supporting the inclusion of these exercises.
