After eligibility screening and baseline assessment, 26 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to French Contrast Training or Oregon Circuit Training. The French Contrast Training programme combines heavy resistance exercise, plyometric exercise, high-load power exercise, and assisted plyometric exercise within the same training complex, with progressive loading and adequate recovery between sets. The Oregon Circuit Training programme uses 8 to 10 functional exercise stations incorporating bodyweight strength exercises, lower-limb exercises, shuttle running, ladder drills, and ball-based activities, with short work and recovery intervals. Both programmes are structured according to the FITT principle and are delivered three times weekly for 8 weeks. Each session lasts approximately 45 minutes, including a 10-minute warm-up, 30-minute main training component, and 5-minute cool-down.
