Abstract:

The aim of the study is to examine the effect of general developmental exercises implemented through a functional training model on the physical fitness of university students. The study involved 114 students who completed a 15-week program consisting of bodyweight and equipment-based exercises organized in a functional format. Physical fitness was assessed using the Eurofit Test Battery before and after the intervention. The results indicate that the applied model contributes effectively to the improvement of physical fitness and support its integration into physical education and sport programs in higher education.
